oo1. [Video; Event; Backdated to Saturday]

[starspangledspandex]

[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.

[That's not fair. He can't see you! Steve will smile anyway.]

Thanks, Ma'am, but it just comes with the job.

[Just part of the game, Stevie]

Job, huh? Hm, I'll guess it doesn't involves tables and poles. Too bad, really.

[Wait there's a game? What?]

Tables and poles?

[He's confused. His mind doesn't jump right to the gutter, sorry. He also never frequented that sort of place.]

No, nothing like that. I'm a soldier.

[herewegoto]

Which army? If that uniform were standard, I might've gone a different path.

[starspangledspandex]

I was recruited for a special division of the United States Government.

[He laughs a little and glances down at himself.]

I'm afraid it's one of a kind.

[herewegoto]

In my experience, that usually means the owner's the same. Otherwise it's just wasted fabric and years of design school.

[starspangledspandex]

[Oh now you've made Steve a little sheepish. He wishes he could see you to see whether that's a joke and so she can see that he's not entirely comfortable with the idea. He is one of a kind but it's not important!]

That's what they tell me.

[herewegoto]

[There's a practically audible smile in her voice she hears that reaction.]

Modesty is more of a peacetime hobby, soldier.

[starspangledspandex]

Takes more than one man to win a war, Ma'am. Just trying to do my part.

[herewegoto]

Oh, I don't know if this one's really the kind of war people win. Omega's less capture the flag and more eternal hot potato. But still, catchy line. I know heroes who'd agree with you.

[starspangledspandex]

[Oh, right, there's some sort of war going on in this universe too though she's just referring to the station.]

This isn't really the war I was referring to; I was enlisted for a couple back home.

[herewegoto]

Funny thing about life, hm. Change is the only constant. Looks like you're managing this one just fine.

[starspangledspandex]

Unfortunately I'm pretty used to change. This isn't the first time I've had a drastic change in scenery.

[He's speaking of course of the whole being frozen thing and not another world but he's purposefully being vague. Never know who is watching and listening right?]

[herewegoto]

When all the fighting for our lives business is back to normal level, remind me to show you around. There's much better sights than Omega.

[starspangledspandex]

I'll be sure to. If I'm here, I might as well and you sound like more of an expert than me.

Oh, I'm not sure I caught your name.

[herewegoto]

Oh, modesty before beauty. You first.

[starspangledspandex]

[But Kasumi! Ladies first! But he won't complain because that wouldn't be proper either. Ah etiquette, though art complicated.]

Captain Steve Rogers, it's a pleasure to meet you Ma'am.

[herewegoto]

Captain Rogers. Can't wait to introduce myself. In person.

[Yup. Totally not giving a name over the network. \o/]

[starspangledspandex]

[Really? That's not nice. Luckily Steve can roll with the punches.]

What, not even a code name? How am I supposed to find you?

[herewegoto]

Oh, I wouldn't worry. When I want to be found I'm pretty hard to miss.

[starspangledspandex]

[He frowns a little at the blank screen.]

Alright, in that case, I suppose I'll see you around.

[herewegoto]

Aye, aye, sir.
