[A mess of wild, unkempt brown hair can be seen cascaded over a tanned, dirtied and bruised face. The direction of the feed is strange and awkwardly angled; the fragmented remains of green and white armor, and shredded black giving way to an equally bruised and burnt chest appear alarming.

[Whoa, okay, he doesn't look to good.]

Hey, you okay?

[fiveminutefail]

[No, he really doesn't. Is he hiding it as well as he hid the Hero thing? Of course he is.]

Oh, this? This isn't anything I can't handle. Not a problem!

[savesthedance]

[Just. Stares.]

You sure? Because you don't look so good.

[And he stares back, but it's easy to tell that he's beginning to falter under that gaze.]

Well, I mean... I've seen better days, but...

[It's more-so hoping rather than thinking when Kotetsu's involved.]

[savesthedance]

[Shot + laser + beam, and Steve's thinking of those crazy guns HYDRA was using. Needless to say, he's a bit shocked you're still alive.]

Wha..? And...you're okay? Or, at least, mostly okay? Well, alive.

[He waves a hand around, dismissing the idea of death. He's totally cool, isn't he?]

It'll take a lot more than one lousy shot to keep me down.

[But it certainly did a number on him.]

[savesthedance]

[Totally cool.]

May be, but it still looks like you got pretty beat up.
