driftfleet | o1;; You didn't see that coming?

Who: Pietro & You!
Broadcast: yes
Action: SS Bloodsport
When: Right now

[ Video;; ]
[ The video feed shakes, the audio cracking as the communicator is moved around. The broadcasting image so far is the floor, covered in multicolored confetti, and a pair of black and grey running sneakers in view. The left foot taps impatiently before the video swings again to the bridge of the Bloodsport. ]

[ There is a sigh before heavily accented voice accompanies the shoddy cameraman-ship. ] If this is someone's idea of a prank, it lacks humor.

[ The communicator finally turns around, and Pietro is very firmly not happy with this situation. ]

I have complaints.

[ SS Bloodsport;; ]
[ Pietro can be found in various places throughout the Bloodsport. In the kitchen, trying to figure out what the deal with protein paste is. The bridge offers a bit of a distraction with the endless sea of stars or the array of broadcast settings, and how can he resist settling into the bunks? It's been a very long time since he's had his own room. ]

[ well.

Steve takes a moment to really just look at the feed for a moment. it's as if Pietro had zoomed out of a memory to have taken form, flesh and blood, alive and well and Steve is no stranger to seeing those who he had thought dead but the wind is still knocked out of him. it almost feels like a mask knocked off, revealing Bucky beneath, almost like Peggy's voice the moment he appeared her, her presence in his reach. he is relieved, he is awe-struck.

he will need to see Wanda, she is less accustomed to this than him and - ]

They haven't really posted a letter box for complaint forms.

[ a small smile. he can do this, he had his practice. ]

[ Captain Rogers is a relieving sight, though he was warned about his presence, too. Most of the gang is here, which is good. Even better for Wanda, who has been without him for so long.

The smirk comes easily. Maybe it's not quite so warm yet since he's yet to see Wanda in person. It takes time for the spark to come back fully.]

Perhaps we should make one. I feel that it would fill quickly.

We should probably make a hundred of them and it might still not be enough.

[ especially since more than one person will likely kick or crush it to bits. they may not be dr. banner but none of them is really good with functioning well when angry, after all. ]

You're feeling ok?

I think it may be a waste of resources if one hundred aren't enough.

[ Anger problems? Who :) has :) an :) anger :) problem? :) Certainly not a pair of teenagers who volunteered for HYDRA experimentation to make a difference in a turmoil-ridden country. ]

I am in one piece and with my sister. [ That should be answer enough. ]

Some people have been here much longer than others and far longer than they remember.

[ he smiles. If Natasha was the letter-writing sort, he has a feeling she would fill a dozen by herself with the teary, heartfelt welcome she has got when she came here for ( apparently ) the second time. that said, he doesn't really want to know the ways Natasha would have voiced her dissatisfaction. ]

Which ship have you been assigned to?

I am on the Bloodsport, though that is likely to change. Nothing against the crew.

[ He shrugs, not feeling too badly about it, in any case. ]

Well, we would be honored to have you here.

[ though who is he kidding, even if he weren't, he thinks Pietro would still be there and he would never fault him for it. Wanda is everything he has.

But while he had the chance to see Wanda letting more people in, himself, Peggy, Vision, this has yet to happen to Pietro.

Maybe this is a chance to remedy that, at least. ]

I kept her as safe as I could.

[ So far, the only opinion that matters to Pietro is his sister's. Everyone else can go screw themselves until he gets to know them better. Nothing will keep him apart from Wanda unless she doesn't want him here. ]

I appreciate it, Captain Rogers. I'm relieved to know that she wasn't alone here for long.

Did she fill you up on all the essentials? the most important bit is don't try to do anything to the augment. Don't try to pull it out or move it, it's very crucial. They say it can lead to pretty serious injuries.

[ and you died once already ok. ]

She's told me, yes. I've heard this from multiple people. It's not something I'm too keen on doing.

Quite the place we've landed ourselves in.

[ Wow, I haven't even died yet. Rude. ]

It's a special sort of show.

[ grimacing so much. he really hates that the Atroma are seeing ratings and money off of this entire emotional mess between brother and sister. One of these days he will find these people and his shield might accidentally fly into their faces. repeatedly and at great speed. ]

They do land the ships on planets every now and then so we could, you know, stretch our legs.

[ smiling a bit. ]

That's good news. I don't know how long I can remain stuck on one of these ships. I am getting restless already.

[ Pietro, it's only been a day, control yourself. ]
