The Serpents and this new gang called The Gargoyles had now joined together thanks to Gladys Jones, with Kurtz, the gargoyles “leader” only agreeing because they got immunity from the law.
The serpents and gargoyles never got along, mainly because of how obsessed the gargoyles were with this new game called Gryffins and Gargoyles, which they treated like gospel, following all the quests they got from their “king”. Kurtz was the worst them, totally crazy and obsessed with this game. You especially didn’t get along with them, because you thought he was a total weirdo. Kurtz seemed to share that annoyance, other than one short kiss you two shared.. which only happened because of a quest card Kurtz got that told him to do that. So, when Kurtz got another quest card, one reading “enchant the princess”, he knew exactly what he needed to do.
You were at home in your trailer, brushing your teeth and getting ready for bed since it was around midnight. Your brother, Jughead, wasn’t home, though that was normal, especially since he was still trying to keep the gargoyles from causing utter chaos. While you were brushing your teeth, you noticed a book on the kitchen counter, and when walking over to look at it, you saw it was one of those Gryffins and Gargoyles manuals you had always seem Kurtz reading. You picked it up and flipped through some of the pages, just curious about it, but then you heard for phone buzz, and saw Jughead had texted you telling you to come to the bunker for something important. You rolled your eyes, just throwing on some pants and a clean shirt and your keys, but not before putting the manual in your pocket.
You drove over on your motorcycle, and when climbing into the bunker, you saw both the serpents and the gargoyles, as well as your brother friends Archie Andrew’s. You were told that this kid Archie had been looking after ran away, and Jughead had volunteered everyone to help look for the kid. You were annoyed, but agreed anyway, and everyone was put in pairs and told where to look. Originally, Kurtz had outright refused and said this was a waste of time, but when he realized you would be helping as well, he decided to go along with it, just to complete his quest from earlier.
Unfortunately for you, Kurtz had opted to go with you, so you were stuck with him.. as if you weren’t annoyed enough. After leaving the bunker, you climbed onto your motorcycle and looked at Kurtz with an annoyed look, because of course he didn’t want to get on your “stupid motorcycle”…. Difficult little shit.
He remembered that he had to enchant you, or in better words, get you to like him, but that was gonna be really challenging for him, since you annoyed him.
Eventually, after some.. discussion (threatening), he begrudgingly climbed on, just sitting there behind you as you turned on the engine. He wasn’t holding onto you, and you didn’t care to tell him to, if he got hurt, that was his own damn fault.
