[Bond has been laying low, for the most part: investigating quietly, observing, looking for the Admiral and the Bridge and all the other things people initially told him he'd never see or find.

It galls him that they were right.

He's also spent his time half convinced that this is all a drug induced dream meant to obtain information from him. He still isn't sure either way, honestly, so when the video clicks on, Bond's face is inscrutable, because you're getting nothing from him, Quantum. When he talks, it's easy, smooth, because he is a very good bluffer.]


Suppose this is real. Suppose we are actually on a ship meant to cure us of our villainous ways. Tell me how it works. Tell me how often it works. And what do the wardens get out of it?

[He smiles, and it's easy but doesn't reach his eyes.]

While we're here, I've learned from my mistakes, 'Admiral.' [The inflection is small, but present: he really means Quantum.] Kindly send me back to live the quiet retired life, if you please. [There are much more important things than his immortal soul, or whatever the fuck this is supposed to be about, at stake after all.]

[Private to Ivy]

It strikes me that I may or may not owe you an apology.

[Private to Lark]

Heard anything?

Sure there is, but sometimes it changes once you get here. [There's a beat.]

Welcome to the barge, by the way. I'm Steve Rogers.

I'm sure a lot of people on here would. I don't mind it so much, it's something to do.

More like keeping busy. It's a welcome break from the catching up I have yet to do, at home.

...Well, seventy years of history, for the most part.

It's not, it's just that I was frozen for quite a while.
thestarspangledman: (civvies: yes what is it)

[personal profile] thestarspangledman 2012-12-15 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. I crash-landed a plane in the Arctic back in 1945.
thestarspangledman: (cap: damn right he's badass)

It was the only thing I could do at the time. Ended up saving New York.
thestarspangledman: (bucky: kicking ass)

[personal profile] thestarspangledman 2012-12-21 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, yes. There was a bomb headed for New York on the plane I was flying.
thestarspangledman: (cap: shield throw)

[Because they're not lies, man. But he's not going to argue, just settles back a little.]

Thank you, Mr. Bond.
