[Was? As in, past tense? Kurt can't help but wonder if something happened, although he won't ask.
He nods again and smiles lightly, hoping that he hasn't drug up any terrible memories for his new friend. His expression shifts to a mix of concern and astonishment, one of his hands coming up to rub at his forehead.] How in the world did you burn your eyebrows off? I can't imagine ...
[Laughing would be impolite, but he controls himself, lowering the hand to rest at his chin instead and glancing at the TAB in Lea's hand.] I'll be looking forward to listening to it, if you figure out what it's called.
[Kurt takes note of the almost bashful way Lea rubs his neck, his grin widening as he drops the arm back down and tips his head to the side. They may have only just met and he might be assuming a few things, yet Lea seems like a good person; he doesn't sense any hostility or anger like he might with other new arrivals. Maybe he's simply been lucky when it came to meeting the newcomers and ended up with all the nice ones? Nah, he can't be that fortunate. Still, he thinks Lea is kind and he gets extra points for the pirate thing and all these cool adventures he's seemed to have gone on.]
I know, ja. We all make mistakes, but learning from them and trying to better ourselves to make sure we don't make the same ones again is the best option. [A huff, his eyes narrowing playfully.] You should give yourself a little more credit where it's due.
