Winter & Vision's (not so) Excellent Adventure

Who: Winter, Vision, & You
Broadcast: n/a
Action: Forest, planetside
When: July 9th

[ This thread is going to serve both as a canon update to post Captain America: Civil War for Winter and Vision, but also be used as a monthly catch-all with prompts. ]

[ It's been a few weeks since they've landed, so Winter's finally gotten over most of his initial uneasiness. Enough to finally venture into the forest for a hike and get the lay of the land. He's familiar with the beach and the markets, and he's heard things about the forest and a certain tree, so he needs to see for himself if the rumors are true.

It's relatively peaceful, and he hasn't come across anyone else yet. He's making his way around a fallen tree when an animal jumps out of a nearby bush and startles him. Winter stumbles back, and his immediate reaction is to reach out with his left hand to steady himself. Unfortunately it's still broken, so it doesn't cooperate like it's meant to. Which means that he trips and falls. Down a steep hill. Only having one functioning arm means he raises his right to shield his head until he can manage to slow down or run into something. Which is exactly what he does before his head smacks solidly against a hard surface. ]


[Meanwhile, the Vision is similarly engaged in heading toward the tree to investigate it. He’s heard you need someone’s hand to hold in order for the magic to work, but his curiosity has the better of him and he’d like to observe it in action first. A scuffle down below his flight path catches his attention, and he swoops into the forest to see what’s going on just in time to see Winter, of all people, taking a tumble down a steep hillside. He rushes over to try and intercept the man before he seriously hurts himself, and in his rush he miscalculates his own density and slams down hard enough that Winter smacks his head against the Vision instead of catching himself safely.

Oops.

The impact is enough to snap the Vision’s head back and hit it against the tree he’d been trying to prevent Winter from hitting. So now there are two enhanced individuals knocked out on the forest floor. How very impressive.]

Yeah, I haven't heard too much from them at all.
unbearablynaive: (id' consider it)

And yet our ratings continue to provide us with income. It's most curious.

I mean... currency is arbitrary anyway.

[That gets a light smile out of him, at least.]

Especially as one who doesn't eat or drink, yes. My income is spent entirely on improvements to the ship or my hobbies.

That's probably the saddest thing I've heard all day, by the way. I knew you don't eat but I still can't wrap my head around it. There's so much good to eat.
unbearablynaive: (for example)

I assure you, it's easier not to have to create a digestive system simply to process it. I do enjoy watching my friends take pleasure in it, however.

No risk, no reward, Vision.
unbearablynaive: (oh dear)

[He scrunches his eyebrows in consternation, though there's still a bit of a smile.]

I can nearly guarantee my tastebuds wouldn't process it in the same fashion.

[ a mid-air shoulder pat ]

It's just too bad, is all I'm saying.
unbearablynaive: (dose abs)

[personal profile] unbearablynaive 2016-07-26 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ah, well.]

Perhaps someday I'll go to the effort.

I'll let you know when it's really worth the effort. Deal?
unbearablynaive: (doubtful)

[personal profile] unbearablynaive 2016-07-27 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's fair enough. Thank you, Kara.

Of course! I'm always here to help.
