I’ve never been one to celebrate Labor Day weekend. Ironically, there’s always been too much labor to be done. Criminals don’t take vacations. But they were miraculously quiet this year, and for perhaps the first time - no, certainly the first time - in my life, I was able to take a brief Labor Day vacation. Specifically, to Tony’s house and ( Read more... )

[OOC: Takes place directly after this RP, where Sam told Steve what was going on. Also takes place the day after this prompt from sharon_carter. One step closer to Steve's return!]

We've waited too long.

We can wait a little longer.Tony repeated this mantra to himself, though it wasn't good for much except to keep him from checking the time more than once a ( Read more... )

[OOC: Yep, that's right. After months and months of waiting for canon to throw me a bone, it's finally time for me to bring Steve back into the public eye! This is part one, in which redwings_sam comes to Steve's apartment the day after Sharon fell off the grid and Sam went to meet with Tony.]Sam flew directly from Harlem to Sayreville, and landed only a ( Read more... )

Steve stepped down Market Street toward the Liberty Bell, feeling a little uneasy. The last time he’d been in Philadelphia, he was helping the survivors of a bombing that Bucky had been responsible for. It wasn’t the most pleasant memory to associate with the place, no matter how well the city seemed to have recovered from it ( Read more... )

Steve meant to stop Tony from leaving the room - there was no need for him to go - but he was distracted by the appearance of his shield. He could only think of one or two times when he'd been separated from it for so long, and each time had felt like a painful millennium. Even in the ice, he'd had his shield ( Read more... )

Tony leaned against one of the stone pillars outside MIT's Great Dome, arms crossed. He didn't insult Sally by looking at his watch. She'd be getting out of her morning chemistry class, and she had an appointment with her advisor on the other side of the quad, and Sally was always on time, which meant she'd be coming through right about ( Read more... )

Steve walks down the city streets, feeling awkward in a way he hasn’t felt since those first few days after he took the super-soldier serum. It isn’t that the body is bad; he feels more limber than he ever has before, and part of him yearns to stop at a gym and experiment with this body’s capabilities; he makes a mental note to do that when he ( Read more... )

[OOC: Comes after this thread, in which Tony came to Steve’s house to talk about Sally, and, as Tony mun puts it, “the UST-dam finally broke.” There was mushiness, and acknowledgments of love, and eventual implied sex. Really, the boys are very cute when they feel like being functional.]No alarm rings, but when the little hand on his bedside ( Read more... )

Recently, Steve's best friend, redwings_sam, came to visit him at his secret hiding place. It's a long thread, covering a lot, but, essentially, they talked about Bucky, and Sharon, and Tony, and Steve's death, and the war, and the Supreme Court decision, and Wanda's world, and Sally. Among other things. Sam also got to meet Steve's boyfriend Daniel, who he ( Read more... )
