006 - action/voice; i came in like troy walking in with pizza

Who: Clay Terran + You people
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: On the Iskaulit
When: June 7th, a bit after this

[You know, Clay hadn't been expecting a day like this. All he was doing was going to the Iskaulit to do some workouts in the gym, even bopping to a tune playing in his head.

Of course, that all comes a stop when he sees the mess before he sees anyone else. Blood trailing through the hallway, like someone had been walking with it. His stomach churns a bit, and his first instinct is to flee and get someone with medical help. Like Jennifer, or Beverly, or...

But no, he's here, and he... doesn't really realize just how bad it is yet. He returns to his shuttle first to grab the first-aid box, then heads in to see who needs his help.

And upon following the trail, well... Turns out, it's a lot worse than he thought it'd be, and that instinct from before comes back full force. He's only had some lessons, he's not prepared for this level of medical trauma, he really isn't -

And that's why he'll be calling out on the comms - not video, because there are kids on the network, but it's pretty clear by the state of his shaky voice that this is definitely an emergency.]


I-I need doctors - healers, medics -

[He takes in a deep breath - ]

I need all medical personnel to the Iskaulit right now!


((ooc: Everyone's free to branch off, tag other threads, etc! This is a general rescue/medical aid post for Winter's wrecking ball.))

[ he is hurt, himself. they're mostly dry bruises and a split lip. the true scars from this encounter, like the ones from the previous battles with the winter soldier, are deep beneath the skin, in the dark corners of steve rogers' veins.

the aftermath if always that much worse. there is blood everywhere and the scent is sickening and the sight of the injured will stay with him for a long time.

it will linger in winter's mind as well, he knows and will haunt and will hurt and will pry at him and he can't explain this to people, not yet. not when there is work to be done.

it's always the same, steve fails winter and has to clean up after the mess he had created on the fateful day he had let bucky fall from the train to a fate so much worse than death.

this too, is on him. but there is no place for guilt, people need help and captain america does his duties as he must.

he is not a medic, not by far but the war has taught him some things, he will be there to bandage and clean wounds, will be there for first aid and to sit with the injured, to assure them, somehow, that it will all be alright. ]

[Kitty is feeling dazed from the blow to the head she took, but when she sees Steve she makes her way over to him. There's blood drying and clumping in her hair and one set of her claws is retracted while the other is still out, stained in Winter's blood, but being held harmlessly at her side. She hasn't had a chance to wipe them off.]

Is everything... resolved? [She hadn't had the chance to subdue him. She hopes someone else did before he got to someone who couldn't defend themselves. She also hopes he was only subdued.]

Yeah.

[ his voice is low, quiet. this is a conversation that he wants to keep between himself and her, despite the amount of people around them. he offered her one of the moist rags he made for the medics to clean the wounds with until the injured can reach the different medbays. he uses the other to wipe blood off his knuckles. ]

are you alright?

[personal profile] passingthrough 2016-06-10 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. [This counts as okay. She takes the rag and sponges gently at the the wound.] Probably a minor concussion. [It's not her first during years of battle. She'll let someone check her out later. But she's happy to triage herself as not as serious as some of the others.]

[Matching the lowness of his voice.] Is he alive?

you should go get it treated.

[ he heals fast, part of the work of the serum. compared to the last time he went against the winter soldier, these injuries are nothing. what weighs upon him is the fear this might have planted in people. he fears they will look at him differently now, like something to fear, like someone who is broken and steve doesn't want this for winter, winter doesn't deserve it.

if anyone is at fault, truly, of the chain of events that led to this it's him and they'll never look at him the way they might look at winter, now. winter who is a victim of this much like the ones who are injured.

he nods. ]


he's hurt but he's alive. he'll heal.

[ his body, that is. as for the metal arm, he doesn't know. all he knows is that he can't help in that. the one who is really good at those things is tony and once tony finds out -

steve sighs, flexes his fingers. he can feel them all which is a good sign ]

I will. [She makes no move to go and do that now though.]

[She'd nod, but shaking her head is the worst of ideas.] Good.

Is he back to being himself? [Or is he still the empty thing she faced?]

I think so. He will be. It's - I don't know what caused him to go off like that. the Atroma had a hand in it, I think.

[ it gives him renewed motivation to find a way to end this, this game they're playing with people's minds. winter was doing well before this and now - ]

Do you want me to walk you? see you to a doctor?

I should probably sit, but I can wait for others to be seen. It's stopped bleeding and there's nothing to do about a concussion but keep an eye on it. [She's feeling more clear headed than she was already. She's quiet a moment partially because it does take her a bit longer to gather her thoughts with her head ringing.]

He's Bucky, isn't he?

[ he leads her to a chair, places his jacket on it in case it is stained and washes the rag with clean water before offering it again ]

He goes by Winter.

[ and steve tries to respect that ]

You heard about Bucky?

[personal profile] passingthrough 2016-06-10 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. [She sits.] I remember him from hearing about you when I was a kid. And there was a James Buchanan here when I arrived who looked just like Winter. Except shorter hair. He told me he'd been in the war. I didn't make a connection at the time.

[ he wonders if it's the same bucky peg told him about, the one who was captain america, the one who lost steve who later became the winter soldier. their world has been cruel to them too but if steve could trade places with winter, take his burdens onto himself, he'd do it. ]

Yeah. That's him. he prefers Winter but he's Bucky.

[ despite what has been done to him, what is still being done to him. ]

The Atroma wanted a change of things.

[ he will never blame anyone else. it's not Winter's fault. he had known the man long enough to know that he his mind was clearer, no longer possessed by urges HYDRA planted there all those years ago. he doesn't know the details but he is certain of Winter's predicament ]

and they got it. I don't know what they did to make him do that but it's their doing.

Yeah, yeah it was them.

[ Winter hasn't just gone back to being the winter soldier on his own accord. something has gone terribly wrong, horrifyingly wrong but steve knows Winter is just as horrified of this as much as all of them and more, horrified at what HYDRA had planted in him and the atroma having access to it. ]


Must have been the augment.

[Sam is mostly cleaned up, but the patches of blood linger on his clothing, and nothing is gonna mask the bruises and cuts on his face, nor the fact that his right hand is a broken mess put into a temporary sling while he works. He's currently taking pictures of everything, typing in some commentary into his device that he plans to pen down later on actual paper, just in case.

When he sees Steve in his peripheral, he doesn't stop his work, per se, but he knows enough from scanning the network; this guy knows Winter. And this guy also had spoken to him about busting into the Marsiva - among other things. He glances over, frowning. We look terrible, hey.]


The Atroma have been really active lately. Before this, too.

If this show's real, this is... probably an attempt at stirring up ratings.

[personal profile] uprightness 2016-06-12 11:54 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[ his voice his deep and hoarse, he looks around at the bloodied mess that remained in the wake of Winter's attack. No, not Winter, the Winter Soldier as they were one but at the same time, they were two different beings, one good and protecting, the other hellbent on a mission - but which? with no HYDRA agents here, what mission had the Atroma inserted into his mind? ]

If there isn't, it might be their way of trying to turn us against each other.

[He scoffs, but there's not a lot of amusement to it.

He's battered and bruised and give no fucks.]


Except we're gonna just start hating them even more than we already do.

This kind of thing — getting into someone's head, it's not only twisted, but it's going to get them in poorer standing with all of us. [He glances at Steve, thoughtful.] You have anyone to talk to the guy? Winter? About, um. I'm guessing it's some kind of mind-control?

[personal profile] uprightness 2016-06-13 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Something like that.

[ he can't explain about the Winter Soldier, this is not his story to tell. if Winter shall ever wish to, Steve would leave this tale to him and support him through it. If he decides not to say a thing, he will accept that, too. ]

I'll talk to Winter. I'll get him to see it's not his fault. This one is all on them.

I don't think he'll see that, not for a long time. But... It's good to try.

[He glances, just a small, unsure glance, and then clears his throat.]

... I have some experience with being out of control of your own mind and body.

Hurting people against your will.

[He shrugs.]

I'll talk to him, too. If that's alright. Figure I'd let him know he's not alone; I'm sure there's more than just me around here who could understand what he might be feeling.

If you'll ever wish to share with me - you seem in control now. If you have any experience in taking control back, it could help Winter.

[ for all how much he wants to be of us, it seems that captain America, for all his glory, just can't seem to solve this one for his best friend.

not alone, anyway ]

[He smiles, but it's just as much a wince.]

I don't really know if it'll help in the long run... I mean, when it comes to showing him how to fight anything. Mine was, uh, from supernatural possession. I guess... [He sighs, shrugging.] ... it was more of fighting back against the entity that's using you. Taking back control of your own mind and body from the inside.

I'm not so sure it's along those same lines for him.

Our next best guess might be the augments, it's how they channeled their control.

[ subconsciously, he reaches just beneath his left ear to the little bump where he knows his own augment lies. the potential of those things, located and altering the minds of everyone is destructive. with a malfunctioning augment, Steve himself can wreck as much havoc as Winter did. ]

I know we can't remove them, maybe we need to look for ways to disable them.

Hard to do when there's literally no safe space aboard the fleet yet. That we know of, anyway. They're probably listening to us scramble for some kind of safety area away from their eyes — the difference is... they'll probably act and scramble us when they perceive any actual threats.

[And there lies the problem. 24/7 surveillance, in all likelihood.]

You're right.

I guess we'll have to get creative. Either way, I think they know what's coming.
