[There is the sound of buttons being a bit haphazardly mashed, and some slight shuffling. Eventually, there is a quiet 'oh', and the video flickers to life and reveals a handsome young man, dressed in a tight-fitting t-shirt and sweat pants.]

Sorry, folks, I'm still trying to figure out how things work around here. [He gives a little sheepish smile and ducks his head, before glancing back to the camera.] Uh. Hello, I'm Captain Steve Rogers. Some of you might know me as Captain America. I'm from Brooklyn, New York, and I was told that you could use my help up here.

There's not -- a lot for me to do at home right now, so here I am. [A little pause.] Though if anyone could catch me up on -- current events, back home, it'd be appreciated.

Yeah? Always good to have more New Yorkers around.

[A small smile.] He has, but I've still got quite a lot to learn.

I'll second the warning that what happened in his world or my world is...practically guaranteed to not be the same as yours. But the library here is pretty incredible, so if you want to catch up on your world specifically then there might be some books there to help. Librarian's called Chromie. Nice lady, might have the entire catalog committed to memory.

[thestarspangledman]

I'll keep a lookout for her, don't worry. Or I guess I could ask Stark.

[psychic_hotline]

I'd recommend fact-checking. He seems like the kind of guy to put his own spin on things.

Anything else about the Barge I can clear up?

[thestarspangledman]

Maybe he'll be nice to a fella who knows -- uh. Knew his dad. [....Nope, probably not.]

Could point me to the gym, if there is one.

[psychic_hotline]

Level Four. Although the CES is better for running or climbing.

[thestarspangledman]

All I need is a punching bag, ma'am.

...Maybe more than one.

[psychic_hotline]

Gym's got plenty of those. And given the clientele here, you might only need the one.

[thestarspangledman]

I don't know, I have a tendency to ...go through quite a few pretty quickly.

[psychic_hotline]

Captain, you're not the only person here who can punch through a wall without flinching. From what I've seen so far, a lot of the equipment's adjusted for that.

[thestarspangledman]

Oh, is it? Good. That'll be useful, at least.
