001 ☆ video

[When the video feed starts up, it shows a man seated at a desk in a rather nondescript room. Not much can be seen behind him beyond a bed and closet. Much more noteworthy is his face, which has a few bruises and a line of stitches extending outward from the corner of his mouth.

Despite that, he has a bright, open look on his face, though the fact that he's sitting up straight and looking head-on at his phone's camera makes it clear that he means business.]

So... had a few days to take everything in, read what information I could find. It's been helpful, it really has. [A lot of the work and investigation had already been done for him, though that hasn't prevented Steve from doing his own exploration.]

Just a few questions, if anyone can help. [And so far, most everyone has been helpful.] I can only assume there's some escape effort that's been put together here. A group of like-minded people, working together to get everyone home. I'd like to be a part of that. [It might seem overly transparent to ask about something like that over a network like this, but Steve has no interest in secrecy, especially not after everything that he's been through.]

Secondly, I've heard a lot about people being from different worlds. I'm trying to get an idea of how many we're dealing with. [He knows about Asgard and has heard vaguely of the Nine Realms, but beyond that he's clueless. He needs to determine the scope of this operation.]

Oh, and the name's Steve Rogers. I'll do whatever I can to get us all out of here. [It's meant mainly as a test to see if anyone here is going to recognize him, or if he actually has some manner of anonymity in this place.

With that said, he offers a small smile and then ends the feed.]

[His reaction makes her laugh a little. He's very polite.]

I took no offense, Mr. Rogers, I assure you.

[assembles]

Glad to hear it. [Though Steve still looks like he's tripping over himself to apologize.]

And if you ever need a lesson or two in punching bad guys, I'd be happy to help.

[ex_alighthouse135]

Really? That sounds like it would be interesting.

[assembles]

Interesting? [Not necessarily the word he would use, but Steve won't question it too much.] It'll definitely be helpful. Seems like a fair trade, since you've been so willing to answer my questions.

[ex_alighthouse135]

[Interesting for him to teach it to her. Her sword lesson with Aramis was equally.. interesting. She doesn't really look like the type that could hit anyone.]

I'd be happy to receive the instruction. Next time I see a monster, I'll punch it in the nose!

[assembles]

[Steve laughs and nods.] Something like that, yeah. [She does look pretty tiny to be punching monsters, but the only way that's going to change is with training.]

Any time you want your first lesson, just come find me.

[ex_alighthouse135]

I will, thank you.
