[ new year, new memories and what begins as one monstrous headache.

it takes a couple of hours to sort through everything that's new, to make sense of a kaleidoscope of memories, images and sounds. at first, he starts writing it all down, lagos, the sokovia accords, the UN, black panther.

Only the dry details and nothing of what starts to weight down on his shoulders, faces and names that inspire a heavy, intimate, terrible sort of pain.

And so an avoidance of a sort begins that lasts through the two days the new year. Hours upon hours spend on the library aboard the Iskaulit, reading books and making nothing of them. It's an odd sight, Steve Rogers in one of the corners of the room, staring at a book and randomly picking up a notepad and writing something down ( another detail that comes up, scott lang or spiderman ) and then staring at the notepad only to go back and stare at the book.

He might also be found at odd hours at the gym; evidently, taking out his burdens on a punching bag, seemingly lost in thought even as takes out what seems to be a world of trouble on the thing.

It will take these two days of isolation before those of the fleet start seeing steve rogers off the Iskaulit. He'll make a return to the Starkstruck, though this return, too, will be a reclusive matter one will have to actively seek him to find him in the weaponry or otherwise, in his room. ]

Sometimes you need to have one.

[ It's been how many years and it's still something Hermione is learning. Summer holidays had barely been any kind of break for her, and it's not as if she had much time for herself in the Drabwurld, running as much of the Seelie court as she could in her role as Marchioness.

Taking a break is a little bit like asking her to shave her hair off - it's not really going to happen. ]


Well, I like to take a walk around the ship, take a peek into my garden, make sure everything's growing okay...
brainiest: (friendly conversation)

[ Hermione smiles, taking his hand and lifting herself to her feet to stand at his side. It feels like old times, but that's not fair - she's learned more than enough about being around people that don't recognise nor remember her to keep that to herself. All she can do is smile, nodding her head and tugging gently. ]

Come on, it's this way. I'll give you a herbology lesson.
brainiest: (i'll be bulletproof)

Plants, of course, and how they can be used in potions.

[ It brightens her up, and she beams at Steve. ]

I'm sure you'd love to learn a little magic.

That's alright. I think I might be a decent teacher.

[ It's not too far to the garden, and Hermione smiles softly as she tilts her head up to look at him. ]

The magic works as something like... An agent to bring it all together. The plants aren't inherently magical, but all together they work.
