Who: Sam Wilson & You
Broadcast: fleet-wide
Action: n/a
When: August 30th


[ this moment has been building, and sam is still a bit miffed he has to make it in the first place. but there’s only so much he can do with what’s been giving, and as much as he’s been trying to figure this out on his own-

he’s not going to say tony gave him the idea. he refuses to say tony gave him the idea. but, yes, tony definitely gave him the idea. ]

I’ve noticed that a lot of these ships tend to vary when it comes to defenses, teams, etc.

I’m in the market for some upgrades and wondering if there’s a point-person who’d be into coming by and giving a quote.

[ he knows he’s going to have to ask the big people upstairs about it, but any kind of person he can talk to before he is left to the whims of the producers, he would really really appreciate it. ]

Recommendations are appreciated. House-calls more so. Weapons experts? New best friend. Let me know.

[ he really shouldn't be surprised. he really shouldn't. he hangs out with steve enough.

but still. ]

I'll see about the rest of the crew. So far none of them seem all that concerned with the current safety status. [ and it's not like he's the captain or anything. ]

Piloting. As far as I can tell, we don't have a single Security Augment on board.

Makes it tricky. You can't improve what you don't have. Even so, that doesn't make an arsenal impossible.

Maybe start with your shuttles, then. Their capacity can be expanded.

Any upgrades you'd recommend? I haven't even started looking, but I don't assume that I'll get any held from the administration.

Shuttles. It seems like a minor improvement, but increasing their passenger capacity can be a Godsend.

[falcony]

You're the second person to mention shuttles. And here I was thinking something closer to guns or shields.

For now, focusing on your guns or shields is a bit moot without a security augment in the mix. If it comes to an altercation, the Starstruck will have your back.

[ no questions asked, really. ]

[falcony]

And you know we appreciate it.

But if something happens to the Starstruck, the Pathstone needs to at least be able to fight.

[ he's going to be on the search for a security augment, is really what's about to happen here. ]

I almost feel bad for poaching the Pathstone's last security officer, now.

[ you know, peggy. he likes you. he likes you a lot. but let's not talk about how he's still bitter about that. ]

We'll figure something out.

Apparently the Pathstone has had a crappy reputation for a while, so it's not like I have anything to live up to over here.

Had I known the rest of you would arrive so soon on his heels, I would have insisted he stay. You have my word on that -- I'm not interested in being a distraction from the life he's come to live in the 21st century.[ she has no claim on his life any longer. it's doubtful she ever did -- the pair of them missed their opportunity. ]

But if I talk to any security officers in need of a berth, I'll know where to point them.

[falcony]

You couldn't have known. Besides, I know how to handle my own without Cap around.

And you're hardly a distraction, Peggy. Come on now.

Yeah- to me. I don't need Tony scaring off any more potential crewmembers, like I'm sure he's going to do with the first engineer he comes across.

[ LONG. DRAWN. OUT. SIGH. ]

You don't know me from Adam, Sam Wilson. I might be very distracting.
