"......... I don't want to be in uni anymore"
@ourfairdominion
Ludwig grinned as he went to put the kettle on. They would want water and tea, and there were snacks that were needed.
"Do you want to have music playing?" he called

Ludwig lays back down, staring at the ceiling and Matt's head. "...... Do you think I should continue with my degree?"

"I'll live," he told her, dodging the question. He wasn't about to let her know anything if possible. The little pot of creamer was set in front of her as well.
"Will you be staying long?"
The sugar bowl was set out for her and he turned away to pour cream into the little jug. "Are you hungry?" he asked in surprise.
Maybe she had refused out of politeness and now was comfortable enough to ask directly. Maybe she just wanted to jerk him around. He could see her eyes trying to meet his, and he looked away, out of the kitchen window. There wasn't enough room to host her in the dining room while he was still moving his property around.
"I have... pork and potatoes," he offered lamely, watching the dogs romp in the backyard

Mmmmm, he liked that. Liked it better than talking about space and the depths of space and life. "What if we go to the west this summer?"

You misspelled "being fucking annoying to each other" because ludwig has something called classiness and moral uprightness

"I can't keep chickens," he half-sobs, turning his face into Matt's stomach. "And the neighbors won't sell their houses"

60s? And they're already like this? Is your house built on sand?
My place is from the 1870s and still holding up, I'll get you in touch with a quality contractor. Not mine, I enjoy him too much to lose him to you or let him be tormented by Italians
Where are your tools? You're lucky I do my own repairs. If you feed me supper and breakfast, I'll also fix your car
[he's rifling around, gently tossing food outside onto the floor and trying to shake the shelves loose] hmm. You could probably put a door and basement in the floor, you know
I am about to have a mental breakdown so if you see me lurking outside your house please set out some good bread
Ludwig, you're literally scaring the bitches. Just come in and clean my pantry out or something.

He half shrugged. "Let's go, then. Shall I lead?"
"When do you want to eat?" He could wait a long time, thanks to cigarettes and coffee, plus he had a piece of gum to tide him over.

Who sticks out as being an early positive influence in your life?
Tumblr media
My tutor, Herr Vogt was the first. I wasn't close to any of my siblings at the time and he stepped in to teach me so much. He instilled a good sense of Lutheran duty which I suppose I still struggle with. I can't sit still for long, I feel guilty about not doing something productive.
Then my family, of course. Resi and Roderich were wonderfully kind and welcoming.
Empress Augusta and Otto von Bismark, they stood by me no matter what and encouraged me to attend university. They had the most faith in me, even if they didn't get along

"I know how to raise pigs and chickens," he offered as he rolled onto his back to face up at Matt. "we would need to be on good terms with Cait so she will pickle everything"

What are your current priorities in this season of your life, and why?
I'm trying to focus on my university degree. It's a shame that I'm the only one in my extended family who doesn't have one and I can't keep putting it off. Plus I need to ensure I can provide for Matthew no matter what, so I'm having to find a good business to ensure he's making money as well
Tumblr media
Plus my psychologist is telling me that he'll be gone soon and won't be able to help with my PTSD and I need to get it sorted out before then because I only get along well with him. He doesn't judge when I make terrible jokes about bad things that happened to me.
So. I'm focused on being a good man. And husband. And father. And wondering how to tell Matt that I want to eat a vial of poison to give me a chance to sleep without a nightmare.

"I'll mind the dogs. Someone will have to learn biology to make vaccines. But we can handle our lands without bosses...." As nice as that sounded, he would miss his people. He wanted to stay with them

What's the most boys being boys thing you've ever seen?
I was in Bavaria last month, and despite the weather, there was a gang of youths in lederhosen and fancy shirts, and one of them wasn't wearing shoes.
The boys all shouted, "OOOOOOOOOOOO OI!" and the boy with no shoes kicked a football which had a string tied to the cap of a beer bottle, and when the cap came off, they started chanting, "Prost prost, prrrrrrrrrrrooooooost!"
Tumblr media
Other than that, I would say the boys in the village I grew up in tricking the priest into eating a cattail

He would never presume - or allow - a woman to pay for her own meal. Unless he hated her. But that list was miniscule.
Besides. He wanted a smoke, the damn laws nowadays. Everyone seemed to be upset about smoke inside and yelled when he lit up. "Do you have a place in mind? There's an excellent Italian place about two streets away"
