426: What's it good for?

Away at War/Battle MemeWe all know war can be a hard time for everyone but those left behind? It can be torture. Hoping you get a letter or a call, staying glued to the television and cringing at those news stories. Guess what happens to you now? Your loved one has gone off to fight a war (battle, fight, in that ilk of things) and some time has

[Peggy doesn't rush to hug him only because they're still under the same chain of command, but it's a close thing. She stops short of embracing him, schooling her expression into something more professional.]

Captain. I'm glad you're safe.

[The relief in her voice is obvious and the unspoken stop getting yourself presumed dead already may be evident as well.]

[The nurse checking Steve's vitals bit her lip for a moment, but before she could get a word in edge wise, Steve spoke first.]

Thank you, ma'am.

[The reply is automatic, his expression searching. There's a familiarity to the face but he can't quite grasp was it is. But he hasn't been able to grasp anything since waking up. The only reason why he didn't question her about 'Captain' was simply due to the fact his title had been explained to him hours ago. And of course, how he gained his 'new' body.

Steve could barely remember college.

But he does catch her tone.]

Begging your pardon, but... do we know each other?

[The nurse braced herself.]

[The lack of recognition hits her like a physical blow. It's enough to make her completely drop the mask for a second and the pain is written all over her face. Just for a second, though; she regains her poise a moment later. Getting emotional - at least outwardly - won't help anyone right now.]

Agent Peggy Carter, SSR. We've worked together.

Do - [It takes her a second to phrase the question.] What's the last thing you remember?

[ooc: She's more likely to be the one left behind. Although when planning out her distant future I usually assume she does sign up for the service at some point or another, future muses could be the one waiting for her? I'll roll with whatever.]

[She's been left behind.]

6. Could you pick adoption or biological, plz?

Aya walked passed the body scanners in the airport. When had those been put there? Had he really been gone that long? He looked forward, trying to tell himself to just focus on going home. Samantha had been called, right? He hoped she was going to be here. The thought of asking for a cab was the last thing he wanted right now. He just wanted to kneel down a rest his head in her lap. He would be fine after that, right? As he walk toward the baggage claim, he glanced around to see if she was there.

going with adoption.

[tehsmurphette]

Sam had indeed been called, and she didn't know what to expect. Time had been tough since Aya had left, and her life had gotten even more complicated. The baby girl had quite literally been dropped in her lap, and after one look in those big blue eyes, she felt some sort of strange obligation to protect the little thing. And while she had come to accept the fact that she'd likely never have a child of her own, she still wanted to be a mother enough to keep this baby and raise her as such.

She didn't have a name, and so Sam decided to call her Bridget, after her grandmother. So now, there she was a few years later, a curly-haired toddler in tow, looking for Aya.

It didn't take long for her to find him, she met him at the baggage claim. "Oh, my god..." Sam could hardly believe her eyes, and she stared at him in shock, afraid to move out of fear she might wake up. This had to be a dream.

[rose_abyssinian]

"Sam...?" What that her? Why was she just standing there? She looked like she was seeing a ghost. He walked closer to her, eyes locked with hers. It was like the world smudged together into a blur around her. Now he was home. Samantha was here. Everything was finally over. He reached his arms for her as he walked a little faster. Relief finally settled inside his chest.
