Problems, captain?

voice;

[punchedhitler]

I did exactly what the manual said and the television still won't turn on.

[duplicitas]

Would you like help?

[He opens the door and looks down at her. Backup.

For an apartment owned by one man but inhabited by three it has a certain military spartaness to it...except for the explosion of manuals, boxes, and foam surrounding the relatively modern flatscreen]

Natasha?

action;

[duplicitas]

Yes.

[ at least it's neat, passing over the mess of things surrounding the television. ]

Hello, Steve. Having trouble?

action;

[punchedhitler]

Come in, please.

[He moves over a little]

It just doesn't want to turn on.

I plugged it in.

[duplicitas]

May I see the manuel?

[ she's dismantled bombs before. this can hardly be more difficult than that. ]

action;

[punchedhitler]

[He hands it over]

I don't think it was written orginally in English.

I have the manual in German, Japanese and Russian, too.

action;

[duplicitas]

Fortunately I can read those languages.

[ peering at this manuel hm. ]

I'm surprised you didn't simply make Tony set it up.

[punchedhitler]

[Here, take them]

I thought if I did he might gut it and make my refrigerator speak.

action;

[duplicitas]

[ leafing through the booklet hrm. ]

I told you he was going to attempt the refrigerator sooner or later. But possibly not at the cost of the television.

[ just. sitting down beside the television and reaching for the wires. ]

[punchedhitler]

[Steve totally sits nearby in case she needs help]

I just think Bucky'll shoot him instead of the talking appliance next time.

action;

[duplicitas]

Bucky. He's a friend of yours, isn't he?

[ because you bet natasha read back through the network in her spare time. also more wire fiddling lol eppy has no idea la la la ]
