Who: Peggy Carter and YOU
Broadcast: Audio + Text
Action: Aboard the Starstruck.
When: Evening
[ it's been a long day. long week. long bloody month. and tonight, in the rebuilt space of a bedroom now properly shared, peggy carter is reading a book. not just any book, really. but that's a story for another time. for now, she's prepared to proceed publicly as though nothing is amiss.
in the handful of hours before bed, she takes to the network with a brief puzzle. ]
[ and attached to the text is an audio messsage. ]
I know it's been a little while since the last one -- and some of you lot who most enjoyed them have gone and left. So we'll ease back into it with something simple. Simple, but no less fundamental. Solving it is all well and good but, as always, there are bragging rights up for grabs for anyone who names the source. Fair warning -- English is the native tongue.
And while I've got your attention, I suppose I ought to do my due diligence [ however reluctantly ] and ask whether anyone else has purchased the upgrade which merges two rooms together. It may be worthwhile to swap notes on how those changes came into effect.
[ and that's that. although she'll be awake for a little while yet -- answering messages and putting on a brave face. truth is, things have gone pear-shaped and she's only just realizing how much recovery yet required. those aboard or visiting the starstruck can find her at her desk, hatch left open, in her and steve's newly merged room. ]
( ooc: and because not everyone has the out-of-character time or inclination for codebreaking, here is the quotation peggy's posted using a caesar shift. )

[ which isn't an attempt to shove more guilt on the man -- but just...she's so sad about all of it. and she doesn't know where or when's appropriate to work through a grief she won't feel in earnest for years. ]

[ It's a hard fact to accept, really. He killed her best friend, and it won't happen for years. It's surreal and fucked up to have to face that while Howard is still living for them. ]

[ which is her funny way of saying barnes is himself absolved of his omission. she understand why he'd kept his mouth shut. but steve...?
that's a harder pill to swallow. ]

[ -- it should have been obvious. in hindsight, the pieces fit together so well.
but perhaps she didn't want to think it of the winter soldier. perhaps it was easier to play ignorant. ]
