Disclaimers

(1) I do not claim to know all about Nightcrawler or any of the X-Men. C&C is welcome, but PLEASE be nice. For some reason I want to share this, probably because I'm spending so much time on it, but I feel very out of my league here. Honestly I feel like a little girl surrounded by terrific "big kid" writers.

(2) I am aware that there seem to be several sides to Nightcrawler, a shy naïve side, a devoutly religious side, a courageous swashbuckling side, and of course a goofy side. At least starting out I'm picking up on the shy naïve side.

(3) I am not sure if I consider this more of a movie fic or a comic fic. Knowing only bits and peices of the comics, I'm taking things from both comics and the movie. His appearance, unless I decide to change it, is based on the movie (though with different clothes because those pants SUCK). Also, the current situation (Jean in limbo, Mystique hanging out with Magneto which may or may not even come up) is pretty much taken from the movie. I do, however plan on adding other mutants not in the movie so your guess is as good as mine. For purposes of Fanfiction.net I am putting this in the movie section (after a suggestion from someone else) even though there is no X2 category.

(4) I am guessing on his age, because from everything I've read the only concrete detail I've got is that he's at least 21.

(5) I have never really talked with anyone who spoke with a German accent, and so I'm not even attempting to write the way he would be speaking. I am fairly sure that Kurt has a good grasp on the English language and doesn't have issues with "big" words. If he does, whoopsie.
