Who: peggy carter, steve rogers and all of you guys
Broadcast: amazingly, yes
Action: on the starstruck, if you're so inclined
When: current.
When: current.
[ New Year’s Eve has come and gone without anything exploding or going awfully wrong and so today is just safe enough for something else. Steve Rogers doesn’t address the network for no reason, after all. Only today he keeps looking back and eventually, calls: ]
Are you really going to stay there throughout the whole thing?
[ There’s a flicker to Steve’s left: dark curls and a flash of a silk blouse as Peggy leans into view. ] Perhaps. After all, of the two of us, you’re the one with experience in addressing the public.
[ But! Fine! Here she is, framed beside him onscreen, and refraining from making any more jokes about the old USO show. ]
Very funny.
[ but he is smiling, small but amused. For all of his experience, he seems as if he’s been practicing his lines for this one broadcast. ]
I know some of you will say this is long overdue, but after months of asking, mostly on her part, I’ve said yes and we’ve decided to get married.
[ -- and that’s when Peggy slaps the back of her hand against Steve’s shoulder, hissing something (something for him alone) about twisting the truth and tarnishing her well-earned cred. ]
I mean, after a careful observation of mutual interests, we’ve decided to get married. What this is really about is a simple matter of proving me right. I’d like you all to tell her three weeks is a perfectly reasonable duration for a honeymoon.
[ She reaches for the device, tugging its focus onto herself. ] -- For God’s sake, don’t encourage him. We’ve only just got engaged; it’s far far too early to start discussing the rest. [ Aside, to Steve: ] I warned you when I agreed to this ridiculous message. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
[ But she’s laughing. ]
It's not getting too ahead of ourselves. Call it careful consideration of facts.
[ he'll reach out and close the device for the sake of this banter. ]

[Natasha is smiling, amused by their announcement and the manner it's given in.
They don't really do things half way, do they.]
Though... [This part might be for Peggy.] Who should be talking to who about setting a bad example now?

[ she's teasing, right? right. ]

I say make it all honeymoon.
[Because you never know how long you'll get, but she'll keep the defeatist bits to herself. She really is happy for them and she's going to do her best not to get too emotional, but they probably get she comes with some baggage. Like a whole baggage car on a train. Or maybe if you took the train and made all the cars for baggage? More like that.]

[ steve misses him too but it's a whole other matter for kitty. she's been handling it with more grace than he has ever shown. peggy being in a coma was enough to send him reeling. the first party after winn's disappearance, he held kitty in a quiet embrace as they've danced.
the same gentleness exists here, today, too. ]
thank you.

Whoa, congratulations.

So why not use this announcement to fix that by adding his comment to the rest of them.] To echo the others, congratulations to ya both, 'nd sounds like ya’ll have many a helpin’ hand for when ya decide the ceremony to be.

Perhaps too many a helping hand. [ ... ] You know what they say about broths and too many cooks, don't you?

Action for you, her, both, all, any.
[Max says it in the lounge, sitting with his flesh leg crossed over his robotic leg (thanks, Howard), looking entirely unsurprised by the announcement. He glances up with a raised brow. He's not about to admit marriage makes him surly, but even a sourpuss with baggage like him can see this is a nice thing. Something for them to do, to make up for the shit they deal with back home. They don't get that anywhere else but here. Might as well make for it like a vulture on a rabbit.
Better analogies have been used.
Anyway. He flips through a notepad and is scribbling, but stops long enough to give his attention.
He holds up a ring finger to wag, almost accusingly, when he adds:]
Practically were already, anyway.
no subject
[ that's not how the saying goes, but she doesn't much care. max scolds her, yes, and she answers by rolling her eyes. and yet she still sinks down onto the sofa beside him -- briefly laying a finger on his robotic leg with a cluck of approval before settling with her arms crossed over her chest. ]
-- What are you doing?
[ ie, can we talk about ANYTHING other than the engagement? ]

FINALLY.
[OH GOD DID HE SIGH THAT LOUDLY, OUT LOUD, WITH LOUDNESS.
What, it's not like he was counting down the hours. It's not like he was tapping his foot waiting for someone to make a move and actually accept the move. It's not like he knew that someone would've had to been Mr. Rogers, because Miss Carter is an impossible fish to catch and keep caught when it comes to romantic things and committed relationships.
He's just so glad.
HE MUSTN'T TEAR UP.]
