✮ video.
Who: Steve 'belated bday boy' Rogers
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the ss star(spangled)struck
When: current
[ after the incident which involved steve rogers, a misunderstanding regarding technology and some ( very flattering ) photos of one Peggy Carter, Steve tried to avoid addressing the entire network regarding anything less than a security threat.
And then today happened.
The video opens up to the Starstruck though the ship looks drastically different due to the large number of red, white and blue balloons and confetti that seems to be everywhere. To make matters weirder, there seems to be a rather big cake reading 'Happy 1776th birthday, your Highness' and a song that seems to be playing every few minutes and rather loudly.
And in the middle of it all, there sits Steve Rogers himself and his smile is absolutely long suffering. He looks up and waits for the song to end before speaking rather hurriedly, mostly since he's worried it'll start over. ]
--- My birthday was last month but - thank you. Tony. For arranging alla this.
[ is he saying it through gritted teeth? Oh yes. And why? ]
And more importantly to Pinkie Pie who dedicated her time and effort to doing all of this. It's - very kind of you. Can't say I've ever had that much done for my birthday before.
[ and now if you'll excuse him, he's off to kill Iron Man. ]

video;
[ all the sympathy ever. He honestly can't imagine what would be his reaction if the Atroma ever pull that specific trick on him but he does think Hank is handling this very well. ]
How long does those thing usually last?
video;
Usually? A couple of days, from what I can tell. So it should be done with soon.
[he hopes]
video;
[ not just getting clothes but..everything. the whole changed body experience. Steve went from very small to his bigger self but that must be a whole lot different than turning into a lady ]
I doubt there's anything I could do to make them change you back but if you feel like birthday cake, there's plenty leftovers.
[ look, comfort food must be a thing that will somehow help ]
Re: video;
[he won't go into detail about just how strange it is, like how breasts are weird or how his balance is all off or any of that. Still, Steve's offer makes him smile a little]
I could go for cake. [cake is an excellent comfort food] I suppose I can't hide over here forever.
video;
ever. ]
No one will say anything here, I promise.
video --> action;
Alright, I'm on my way over.
[and so, Hank psyched himself up to take the shuttle over to the Starstruck for cake and to talk with Steve in person.
. . . he pauses in the bay to look up and give the speaks a look cuz of that song. 'Cuz holy crap]
Wow.
--> action;
--- Yeah. You should see the corridors.
no subject
[he's decided Tony Stark is a menace] I get that it's supposed to be - you know, but he could of at least switched it up a little bit.
no subject
[ there is no handling tony stark. he cringes when the girls sing who’ll rise or fall, give his all for America? ]
-- you know it was really popular back in the day.
no subject
[he tilts his head at the cringe, but doesn't ask]
I can imagine. It's - catchy. [and out of curiosity he may have watched the video, so he can see why] A lot catchier than the recruitment commercials they used to show when I was a kid.
no subject
[ said as they step out into the corridor, all decorated in white, blue and red balloons ]
Well, Captain America was something America needed back then. For morale.
no subject
[he has yet to meet one of the ponies and he wants to keep that record]
I'm sure you did more than just boost morale, captain.
no subject
[ don't ask him what it means, Hank, he just knows she is and that's more than enough for him as far as pony semantics. ]
She's very nice. She said she'll do the same next thing.
[ despair level is at 100% ]
I did what's needed to be done.
[ when the song starts over again, he sighs ]
--- well, the children liked it. Especially when I punched Hitler.
no subject
[he isn't sure he wants to know and he doesn't want to be accidentally rude about it so he'll just not ask at all]
Have you told her it's an Earth holiday, too? You could distract her with that.
[he gives the ceiling a dirty look]
That's what I mean.
—you punched - wait, the real thing, or an actor?
no subject
[ he doesn't really mind it as long as this time he gets to say what he wants instead of this whole 4th of July fest ]
That's a national secret, actually.
[ a smile, ok, ok. ]
an actor. He would sneak behind the chorus girls and I'd punch him on cue.
no subject
[maybe Tony won't be involved at all next time, maybe you'll be lucky.
He grins a little]
That does seem like something kids would enjoy watching.
no subject
they always thought it was pretty heroic. I guess it meant a lot to them at a time.
[ the only reason he continued doing it, in truth. he pulls a chair for him as soon as they reach the kitchen ]
- sorry. old habits.
[ he can't get over you being a lady, hank. ]
no subject
[he stares at the chair.
And then stares at Steve.
. . . and it's only because he's Steve that Hank doesn't just haul off and hit him]
What a gentleman. [it's so deadpan]
no subject
[ the most sheepish smile ever. sorry, Hank. ]
Help yourself.
[ he gestures toward the 4 layered cake, all blue and white and red ]
I have a feeling we might have to invite more people over if we ever want to finish that one.
no subject
[he's teasing, a lil]
. . . geez, that's - a cake. You could always freeze some of it to save it?
[or give it to the people who eat a lot, who knows]
no subject
[ though he gave her no reason to, awkward turtle as he is ]
-- she put a lot of effort into it so I guess we'll have to.
no subject
[these two romantic nerdlords]
You might not have to, since a lot of people like cake, but -
no subject
[ ... ]
You asked her for her blood?
[ hank what. ]
no subject
[he clears his throat a little awkwardly]
I was a geneticist, and I'd never met another mutant before. I was thinking but not thinking. She - didn't mind, though. Not really.
no subject
[ it's not his fault. it was the first time he saw a gal punch a guy for being a jerk around her. it was all doomed after that. ]
-- I think I can get it.
[ thinking but not thinking, that is. ]
It's a good thing they usually don't mind those things.
