Comments

[uprightness]

A gift for a friend.

[ he has one already,in a box by his feet, the one he found for Sam, that one will go to Peggy if she wishes for it. Steve happens to find all the fluff slugs to be fascinating, especially the rumors of how they might affect one's mood ]

They say it can make you feel better, happier.

[ he takes a second box and very gently scoops the fluff slug inside ]

Figured it's worth the try.

[passingthrough]

Oh. [Not a hopeful, curious "oh" so much as a cautious one.] That can fall under be careful what you wish for. In the prison there were mood-altering pearls. I had one that was making me happier without realizing it was doing that. It sounds like a good problem to have, but it wasn't. [Especially not after the withdrawal.]

[uprightness]

We'll have to test these ones out. I don't know if they work on everyone in the same manner but I've seen the natives walk around with them, they seem to think of them as pets.

[ he doesn't close the box yet, looks at the colorful little creatures ]

But we'll have to be careful, you're right.

[ a little smile, it's hard to be concerned at times, here. most time he manages to be worried anyway but today is a good day ]

how are you?

[passingthrough]

Well... They are kind of cute. [She peeks into the box curiously. There are times her paranoia and mistrust is very deep seated and it's a surprise when other people don't think the same way she does. Then there are other times when it feels more like something she's wearing because it's familiar and comfortable. Because it's who she was more than who she is now. That person is a lot newer to her and she doesn't always know what to do with her.]

Me? I'm good. Healthy. [Throwing that bit in because the last time they talked she was bleeding from the head.] I like this planet a lot more than the moon. It's a much better place to be abducted.

[uprightness]

Can't complain about the beach and the clear air.

[ a nod. the moon has been interesting, certainly but the masks were a painful reminder of the days of the war and the inability to jog or travel or eat normally has become tiring after a few days. this is certainly better, the salty air and the constant sound of the ocean, a large breathing entity. ]

Want to see if we can catch a few more?

[passingthrough]

I was always kind of a city girl, but just seeing so much life and beauty is a good thing. [Her world had been so broken and ravaged. Maybe she wouldn't like a planet like this forever, but she likes it a lot right now.]

Collecting a whole village of them? [She shrugs, but it's not like she's really dismissive. The chance to spend time with Captain America isn't something she'd pass up easily.] I'm game.

[uprightness]

Big city girl?

[ asked with a smile as he collects another one. Hey, maybe other people on the fleet might like one, worth a shot. If not, they can always be released back into the wild. ]

I can understand that, born and raised in Brooklyn.

[passingthrough]

Chicago. Technically, a suburb.

[She laughs softly because she already knows where he was from. Still, it's nice to hear. You never know when they got things wrong. And it's his life. He should get to tell it. She's honored that he'd want to tell her any of it.]

Do you miss it? Brooklyn.
