[The voice is coming into and out of focus, but it doesn't seem to care. It's clipped, and determined.]

They really know how to roll out the welcome mat, don't they? I feel— [buzz and static] ain't the Blitz, but— [more of the same]

I heard the Avengers were here, and I wanna sit-rep. This is [more static] Captain America. [While the reception ain't great, anyone who knows him can tell this is Not Steve.]

I need to know what I'm dealing with.

[kneecaptain]

Well, I wasn't dead.

voice;

[vampirique]

Fair enough.

I have not met others with similar memories in a very long time.

voice;

[kneecaptain]

[Have some static] — get out much.

voice;

[vampirique]

( He's just squinting here as he tries to make out words and then just assumes. )

Excuse me?

voice;

[kneecaptain]

I'm not that old.

voice;

[vampirique]

Oh—I stand corrected.

( IS THAT DISAPPOINTMENT................ )

voice;

[kneecaptain]

I lived through the Blitz, sure, but that wasn't— that wasn't that long ago. [CONVINCING HIMSELF.]

voice;

[vampirique]

( Somewhat more reassured, aw yeah. )

Wasn't it? Is it not the future?

voice;

[kneecaptain]

What year do you think it's s'posed to be?

voice;

[vampirique]

It is 3312 right now.

voice;

[kneecaptain]

Okay, then yeah, 1942 was a while back.

voice;

[vampirique]

Very much it was.

( fuck english )

What time are you from?

voice;

[kneecaptain]

[Batroc flashbacks imminent.]

2012.

voice;

[vampirique]

Myself included.

( H E H )

You were born when?

voice;

[kneecaptain]

1925. [See that's not old.]

voice;

[vampirique]

You are much younger than myself, if that means anything to you.

voice;

[kneecaptain]

[It doesn't really.]

Well… alright.

voice;

[vampirique]

What I mean to say is, if it is reassuring. ( oh god fuck words )

You do not sound your age.

voice;

[kneecaptain]

Yeah, I know.

voice;

[vampirique]

How old are you meant to be?

Re: voice;

[kneecaptain]

[He doesn't know. He could count it up, but that would mean going through hours, days, weeks he never meant to think about, laying out all those misspent years. Putting a number on them.

He's gotten better, but he's not that good.]

Twenty-nine?

[vampirique]

That does not seem correct. ( wow how helpful of you )

How have you not aged?

[kneecaptain]

That's sorta a personal question. [rude]

[vampirique]

( the rudest!! )

Is it? I am only asking if you're truly human.

( but still. )

[kneecaptain]

[What the hell.]

[static]— the hell—
