[Cap' is in full armor, including his very slightly ridiculous helmet, complete with the painted-on headwings. He's inside of the walled safe zone. There are some people milling about but not too many...yet.]

This is Captain America. I've taken a look over the walled-in zone provided by the deities, and other than it being kind of cramped, I'm pretty secure in saying it's safer than the desert outside.

If you need an escort in, I'd be happy to come out and find you. There are lines inside to get somewhere, and they're getting longer by the hour.

[ Shielding his eyes for a moment. ] Bet y'wish we had Sahara training now.

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

[Steve sighs and looks out into the desert from where they are in the safe zone]

I wish we had a lot of things we don't have right now.

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Shifting on to the balls of his feet, eyeing Steve up speculatively. ] How many people y'think're out there?

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

A lot. A lot of people who need our help.

[Because there are a lot of monsters out there.]

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Well, we gotta get on with it, huh? Get Captain America to the people.

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

Do you need a break?

[Steve doesn't but he knows Bucky doesn't exactly have super serum in him...]

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Don't be dumb.

[ Steve's gonna need Bucky to have his back. ]

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

I'm just making sure. At least we can stock up on water and food here.

[primrosella]

[...Is that--well, it sounds like him, at least. Though it's a bit hard to tell through the slightly ridiculous helmet.]

Er. Captain Rogers...?

[punchedhitler]

Hi, Rosella. Are you somewhere safe?

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Yup.

[ It's always interesting, to watch Steve melt away into Captain America. ] Gimme your water canister, I gotta fill mine anyway, might as well.

[primrosella]

Oh, good, it is you! Your helmet is lovely.

And yes, I'm all right! I'm with some friends and I think we're making our way toward the safe area, too. Though I did want to ask--have you heard from Penny lately, by any chance?

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

[Steve unhooks it from the strap on his belt and hands it over]

Fill up an extra.

[He unhooks the second one]

In case we see someone who needs some.

[punchedhitler]

My helmet? Well, it's useful, at least.

[A laugh - and then he sobers up]

I saw her the other day - well, I talked to her, at least.

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ With a jaunty salute. ]

Yessir.

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

[He can't help but laugh a little, still watching the desert while Bucky is out, but when he gets back he turns to the other man]

You sure you don't want to stop for a couple of hours?

[primrosella]

Yes, it's wise to keep the sun off your head as best you can when running about out here, certainly.

[Also she kind of likes the wings, not gonna lie. They've got that Greek myth thing going for her.]

Oh, rats. I was hoping she was in the shelter with you, somehow, and you'd seen her in person. I'm a bit worried about her.

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Handing the canteens back to him, shaking his head. ] People're out there, s'kinda the job, ain't it?

[punchedhitler]

Bucky and I can go looking for her, if you're really worried.

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

[He snaps them back onto where they hook to his belt]

You're right, we should get moving.

[He'll make Bucky stop if he really looks like they need to.]

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Well no point bakin' and doing nothing.

[ He gives him a grin, he's fine, he may not be super-soldiered, but he's still a soldier and this is what they do. ]

Where d'you wanna start?

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

[He kind of grins]

Thought we'd start in the sandy area.

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Jerk.

Last time I ever ask y'for orders, just wait an' see.

[ action ]

[punchedhitler]

Hardly the last time.

[ action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Nu uh, gonna start wanderin' about by myself.
