[So bad things are happening on Omega, he's not really surprised. It's not really the type of place that screams 'good place to hang out'. He realizes on his walk back to the apartment that neither Tony or Bruce really have the means to deal with these particular problems.

Both of them will get a ping but the message is going to be open because he has this thing where he has to check on everyone.]

Is everyone--

[There's a roar and Steve dives to the side, camera rolling with him. There's a 'chink' as his shield is pulled from his back and the huge, glowing blue thing that crashes into view is no joke.

Luckily, neither is Steve. The video is an absolute jumbled mess. Steve is lithe and athletic; he uses it to his advantage to stay out of range. Paired with his shield throwing abilities--and what seems to have the ability to defy the very laws of physics themselves--it's hard work, but he banks the shield off some canisters that go boom and down goes the adjutant.

He warily watches it for a moment before he slings his shield over his shoulder. As he addresses his omni-tool again, he keeps glancing up at it.]

Is everyone doing alright? If you need an escort to a safe zone, let me know. Stark and Dr. Banner, I'd stay in the apartment. The streets aren't safe. I'll be back soon.

[ Well, she has been keeping her head down. It's understandable, all things considered, since Natasha's kind of a master at that whole thing. ]

That's what I meant. [ A click-clack and a hiss as something ejects from the end of her pistol — new technology isn't quite her niche, but a self-ejecting cartridge can't go wrong, she supposes. ] I'm on a personal run first, but. [ But Steve's a hell of a leader and, you know, the teamwork thing. ]

Do you need anything, Cap?

[Steve isn't terribly surprised. Master assassin and all when he's lived in the spotlight most of the time. They do what they've been trained to do.

He can only watch with a frown as she ejects the clip. Steve hasn't gotten himself a gun. He's got the shield; what's he need a gun for? He rarely uses them anyway.]

No, I think I've got it covered. [He glances back up at the fallen adjutant.] Your personal run require back-up?

[ Considering her personal run requires breaking and entering, it's really more of a one-man mission. Sorry, Steve, but a girl's gotta get her weaponry someplace, and it's easier to be discreet when it's just your own shadow. ]

I'll let you know if it does. [ She smiles, then. It's an expression that's a lot friendlier than anything else she's offered her other teammates. ]

I'm glad you're around. [ Wryly: ] We can share babysitting duties later.

[And Steve would disapprove which she likely knows. He's not much for law breaking. He would help because they're a team and it's obvious that she needs something to defend herself but he'd make disapproving frowny faces the whole time.]

Sounds like a plan.

[He smiles too though it's tense and on edge. He really doesn't want to be jumped by another one of those things. There's a small pause and Steve shows he has a sense of humor.]

I think that makes it your turn.

[ Then it's a good thing his frowny faces can be pretty endearing sometimes. ]

We'll flip for it. [ A joke, if the arch of her eyebrow is anything to go by. ]

I'll be seeing you, Captain.

[Awww you do like him. It's hard to tell sometimes. He's bad with women and you're super secret agent or something which doesn't really help him in that area.]

Only if you promise not to cheat.

[Because he could totally see you rigging it somehow. No offense meant.]

We're in 089-F if you need one of us.
