[It's that time again! ...good luck, Ximilia]

So, it seems to be just over sixty of us now. More than double the amount that was here when I first turned up. Looks like some of them left though, so I guess they changed their minds.

[Not that he knew most of them. But he has eyes. And a need to keep track of things like that.]

Far as we all know, this is the third time people have been brought here. Ninety-one days since we first started turning up.

Now, I ain't saying I'm an expert. But I'm just going to field a few questions before they come up.

[And undoubtedly leave it to the actual professional once the follow up questions come]

Yes, there's another area called the Northern Wing. No, we can't go in. Yes, we've met someone who seems to live on the other side. No, we can't talk to him.

[Except...that last part might not be true. He hasn't actually asked Viveca if they could talk to him]

We're meant to get a supply drop once every thirty days or so. Spare clothes and supplies are all stored at the end of the common room. You need something specific, speak to Viveca. Ain't promising she'll be able to get it, but can't hurt to ask, right?

If this is your first time in space, talk to Jim Kirk. He's been running sessions for anyone who hasn't been off planet before.

You need to eat more than the average person here, let Dusty Fields know. High calorie rations are marked, but he's keeping track of supplies with a couple of others.

[Oh, right-]

Guess I should also add, you want to get laid, talk to Newton Geiszler. I'm sure the Doc would love to give you a little TLC.

[:D]

If you've got any questions, you're looking for Sam Wilson.

[:D :D]

[it is her gift. The gift that keeps on giving, apparently, because now she's dug into this particular issue and isn't about to let go.]

And did anyone attempt to follow him?

[starer]

Wasn't exactly an option. We'd literally just landed, so no one was getting to their feet any time soon.

Sam had his suit on. He might've caught something on camera.

[kimoyos]

Then I will make sure to speak with him about the issue.

[About 30 seconds later, another message comes through.]

You should step up to be a leader more often. It suits you.

[starer]

That's Cap's job, not mine. I ain't looking to take over.

[kimoyos]

Maybe that is true. But you sound like a leader here to me.

[She really wants him to hear the pride she has in her voice. She's so pleased and proud of the life he's making for himself, and the man he's become.]

[starer]

[No, how dare you. He just stays quiet for a long few moments. It's one thing to dismiss a compliment coming from a stranger. But with Shuri-]

That don't make me one.

[kimoyos]

[She realizes that it's only because she's so fond of him that she sees things in him that he isn't able to see himself. But she knows him well, likely better than anyone. And it's because of that she doesn't press the issue more than she has. You can't just tell Bucky he is something. Not after most of his life was spent being told he was little more than a weapon.]

Have you eaten?

[It's a question that comes out of nowhere. But it has a point that she'll get to eventually.]

[starer]

[Well. That was an abrupt change of topic. But hey, he's learned to roll with the punches when it comes to Shuri.]

Yes?

[Sort of. Just enough to keep a certain motherhen off his back that morning.]
