11: emotional punch to the gut by way of hope chest
(Backdated to event's end and the distribution of regains:)
[Kurt hasn't even brought his regain inside yet. Instead he's parked on the front steps of 1651 Albright Lane, dismantling cardboard and brown paper wrapping to get at a rather cumbersome package. Once he gets the wrapping off, the smell of cedar floods out. It's not more clothes, but a heavy antique trunk with a nail-studded lid. Less practical this time, more sentimental. After the memory confusion of July 4, this is a really dick move, Mayfield.
And now the struggle commences to get the thing inside.]
