❛ move away from the door and let me AT HIM ❜
107th Infantry Regiment Army National Guard New York, New York
Dear Soldier,
This sounds stupid. I know that’s a terrible way to write a letter but, I’m terrible at writing letters, so there. I saw this thing tacked up at the hospital when I was there visiting my friend. ---- She’s a doctor, so, don’t worry about giving any of the cliche well wishes. But they have this bulletin board there, and usually it’s just local events, charity things, and then this one thing from the VA asking for letters. For the soldiers that don’t really have any family to send them things for the holidays. And, well, I also have no one to spend the holidays with so I figured, why not? Right? You’re out there, risking your life, serving our country, it’s the least I could do. But Apparently I’m not supposed to talk about your experience over there. I guess these are supposed to be some kind of distraction from the “hells of war”, or whatever it is they call it.
So I guess I’m supposed to talk to you about life back home, as if that’ll somehow make it easier. I highly doubt it will. And, well, I don’t want to make you homesick during the holidays because believe me, I know how shitty that is. So I guess I should just introduce myself? That’s what people do, right? I don’t know. It’s weird to talk TO you when I don’t even know who YOU are. As far as I know, these get randomly distributed. You might not even be deployed. You could some bored intern working at the VA getting a kick out of some lonely orphan’s letter ---- sorry. Sorry, I know you’re actually probably deployed. And it sucks. And I’m supposed to be here to distract you. So, here I am.
My name is Caroline Forbes. I live in New York. I’m an aspiring journalist. I’m 24. I live alone. And that’s about it. My life. In one line. I promise I’m not this pathetic, really I’m actually a lot of fun, everyone says so. You’d probably even like me, if you met me. I’m sure there’s more to tell, I just don’t want to bore you. But we’ll make a deal, okay? If you’re out there, reading this letter and you for whatever reason feel the need to reply, ask me anything. I’ll answer. It’s the least I can do. And stay safe out there. I know you’re getting this because you might feel lonely, or like there’s no one here waiting back for you, but there is. A whole country full. Or several countries, I’m guessing.
Oh, and I sent a couple of pairs of socks (Google says that’s what guys miss most), some books my friend says are good, sunblock, wipes (I’m not asking, please don’t give me details), snacks, and a deck of cards. Hope you like them. If not, feel free to hand them around.

FIONA GALLAGHER + STEVE ROGERS // @captainrcgrs
she shoulda fuckin’ known better. leavin’ may run in her blood, a byproduct of bein’ frank and monica’s kid, but trust the universe to royally screw her for actually doin’ it. leaves chicago to ‘ better herself, ’ to try and make somethin’ of her life, and she ends up sleepin’ on a frumpy mattress in a cramped apartment & workin’ at another fuckin’ diner. not even a manager this time --- just a goddamn waitress making minimum fuckin’ wage. you’re really provin’ ‘em all wrong, aren’t ya, fi?
dragging the back of her hand across her glistening forehead, fiona glances towards the door. the lunch rush may have passed, but a few stragglers always manage to come draggin’ in --- behind ‘em, one of her regulars. fiona doesn’t mind his appearance quite so much; he tips well, and so far hasn’t tried to get into her pants.
❛ be with ya in a sec, steve! ❜ ( his fuckin’ name just had to be steve, huh? ) flashin him a crooked smile, fiona gestures towards his normal booth with a dip of her head. takes her a few minutes to deliver an order or two, but she soon appears at his booth, pen + pad nowhere in sight. ❛ your usual? or you finally feel like tryin’ somethin’ different? I’m tellin’ ya, the astro burger is the best thing on the menu. ❜
“ you don’t have to talk, we can just sit together. ” . frm boxer steve in that kinda thing we had :)

the cold of his right palm is pressed against his forehead and his eyes are tightly shut. his elbow’s digging into the table and he counts the seconds that go by. it all moves slowly, and eyes squeeze a little bit tighter and his fingers begin to burrow into the mess of his hair, dull nails scratching against scalp almost uncomfortably. “ yeah, that’s— that’s exactly what i’m doin’ here. don’t know what gave ya the idea that i’d be talkin’ about anythin’ of substance to you. ”

SHE SHOULD SPEAK ; say something , at least. . . but her wide brown eyes can do nothing but stare blankly ahead at the soldier before her. red lips are parted as if she were breathing , but the paleness that’s overcome her certainly speaks otherwise. he had to be a ghost , right ? there was no way he was there. he went down with the plane. she poured out his blood. they’d given up the search. he was gone ------- right ? red-heeled feet carry her a bit closer before she’s even taken a breath. fingers deftly reach out , touching his lapel as she blinks a few rapid times. ❛ ----------- steve . . . ? ❜ a sharp breath is drawn in as her eyes instantly burn of salty tears the moment she feels the solidity of his form.

IT’S A RATHER DIFFICULT SITUATION , embarrassing would be a good way to describe it too . most of the times she will pride herself in her independence , her free-spirit way of living always with her eyes in the goods ( gymnastics turned out to become more useful than a simple after-school practice as a young teenager ) -- but despite her street alias - she was HUMAN , and humans make mistakes -- miserable ones sometimes . “ hi doll-face , i can’t explain but i don’t feel so g-- ood , nowhere to go either ” she feels her body losing strength , nearly blacking-out . she presses her hand against his door-frame then as she fights to keep her eyes open . “ i think i’m -- ”
BLANK . next thing she knows she’s slowly opening her eyes which take a while to adjust , her head ten times heavier than usual -- she’s used to alcohol , this was not it , but her mind gets distracted by the comfortable blanket over her body .
he stares at the mess before him. the customer has already left, and he knows he’s in for a long day at the garage. tony taps his fingers against the banged up metal of the car, before tilting his head back and groaning. jesus fucking christ almighty, lord give me strength. he loves his job, he does, but sometimes, people think he’s going to do some miracle work within five hours. his head drops back down and he looks over at steve. “ do you think he crashed his car on purpose? ” he asks, as if that’s a feasible excuse as to why this car looks like... a garbage dump. surely no one would crash their car on purpose to spend more money on getting it fixed, and yet. / @captainrcgrs / 💬 ( still accepting ).

While most people would feel somewhat weird in the presences of someone so glorified, Hanna isn't shy in the slightest. ❝ You've got to tell me who designed your pants. The ones you fight in I mean. --- I wish a pair of pants did my ass that much justice. ❞ To her, there's nothing wrong with that sentence. It's only until a voice in her head ( that sounds a lot like Spencer's ) points out that it's a little inappropriate. ❝ Sorry, mouth has no filter. Uh, nice to meet you, sir. Er, Captain... ❞
