Moar CR

[zhuludovi.livejournal.com]

Daisy's fifth. Phew. I'll try to keep this short. This is Georgi "Jimmy" Kozlek, Four of Clubs.

1) Thirty years old, has been on the Deck for six years. Originally from Bulgaria, but lived in Vienna for several years prior to coming here. Speaks many languages, mainly Bulgarian, English, German and Hungarian. He's six foot five, way up there on the Too Tall spectrum, and a congenital amputee; missing his left arm from just below the elbow. It doesn't affect his work overmuch. Which is this--

2) He runs a farm on the outskirts of Club lands. It's mainly poultry, some sheep, and of course them lovely vegetables and fruit and elderflowers. He likely press-gangs people (especially kiddos) into helping him out during heavy seasons. Lambing soon!

3) Generally speaking, a warm and jovial type, though farm life is an education in tough love. If the drama or workload of the castles ever gets too much, his farmhouse and barns are open for anyone to crash in. He's a good listener and good at keeping a cheerful face on even in times of dire non-cheer. Extremely hard-working and dedicated, and of course owns a buttload of animals. Dogs, cats, geese, you name it. Just don't get too attached to the livestock...

4) I'm thinking he had his heart broked a few years back. Any takers? Also, pre-Deck, he spent some time smuggling various Illegal Things across the border between Austria and Hungary. I'm not sure there's anyone relevant hanging around, but hey, you never know when it comes to past CR.

Christopher stares at the fellow fall Club. Stares. They probably know each other because Christopher has dragged kids out here before for projects and field trips to encourage students that it's okay to be a farmer. They can't always depend on Deck food. Friendly acquaintances?

Saaaandy buys so many things from Jimmie but never eats them. Mostly because she uses them for still life. And he may have run into her when she worked at the Hardware store when she first got to the deck so many years ago.

Meghana probably has dropped by, because she doesn't quite trust anyone with her cooking in the recent years. :| So she buys her own food, doesn't try to strike up conversation and just... she probably isn't all that fun for Jimmie. Or rather just a loyal customer who isn't friendly.

That's good. Jimmy would be fine with kids being dragged around the farm-- more people to round up to help with lambing/apple picking/muck-spreading/what-have-you when the time comes. Lambing is, in his opinion, an ultimate learning experience. :|

Jimmy will cluck. Can't she paint them and then eat them? Eat them while she's painting them? Eat them and paint what's left? Silly girl, that's what food's for.

He doesn't mind folk that aren't fun overmuch. If she's dedicated to fresh farm produce, that's good enough in his book. The billion dogs and cats and possible alpacas will all try to be her friend. And the goose army will watch her haughtily, probably used to her at this point.

There will be so many parent permission forms for the Lambing. So many. He'll never have to cover Sex Ed with Lambing. This is a good thing because then people might realize that Mr. Kahl turns redder than a beet sometimes.

But she would rather paint them. And they're beautiful and she knows they're tasty... fine, she will buy some to eat. Huff.

... I've decided that Jimmy one day found Meghana actually smiling and petting and be-friending all the dogs. All the cats. All the alpacas. And he catches her. And she is like a deer in headlights. Because this woman adores animals.

"Perfectly natural process, Mr. Kahl! Now, could you just hold this while I turn this one around...? Twins, always get in such a tangle."

And Jimmy will be happy, knowing that he is feeding All The People. Even starving artists.

I approve of this. Especially the alpacas! They're meant to be guard alpacas, but Trifon and Zarezan are actually big attention-seeking babies that will nibble on hair and come running to anyone that walks by their pasture. /all of Jimmy's long-suffering sighs /they are working animals not PETS

Still. It'll warm his heart.

".... :/" So maybe EVERY student knows that Mr. Kahl gets really, really white during Lambing season.

And Sandy gnaws at whatever food he gave her and rolls her eyes.

Oh god. She could be giggling if they're nibbling her hair. Oh god. Meghana swears the death of him. The Death.

And Zazeran keeps chewing on hair. :||

He's just an innocent bystander, Meghana. And he won't tell anyone. Just like he hasn't yet told anyone about the time his goose army chased Elisha into the sunset.

She will know. She will know it was him. :|

... that's beautiful. :o The Clubs want to knoooow.
