Looks like there's shortcuts now. Good to know, and I'm sure it makes my horse a lot happier.

[Because carrying around this big solid man for weeks isn't a graze in the pasture. Steve's reached a new destination though, with the help of a fairy ring or two. There's a lot of hustle and bustle behind him, the background so different from the rest of this world that it's obvious where he is. The effect is a lot like when he crashed through a wall and into the new and improved(?) Times Square.]

I think we were supposed to leave cakes for the fairies, except I didn't have any. I don't have much at all right now.

[His brow furrows at that. His plain white t-shirt is easy to see, and a glimpse of soft blue pants isn't impossible either. Yeah, he's been travelling from the other Court in his pajamas.

But at least he still has his shield.]

My name is Steve Rogers. I come from Earth, and I grew up in Brooklyn. I joined the Army, and I've been in a war before, so I thought I knew what I was signing up for when I came here. What I've found are people on both sides who really don't wanna fight. So I don't care if you're Seelie or Unseelie, if you're out there and you need help, I'll do whatever I can to help.

[To the absolute delight of travelling best buddy, no doubt. Steve starts to close his locket, before thinking of one last small detail.]

Oh, and for anyone who's been to the Station before, do you know where they sell shoes?

[He laughs softly, briefly at that.]

No, it certainly would not.

[overdraws]

Is that why you came here? To the station, I mean.

[starspangled]

It started as just a stop along the way from somewhere else. But that might be why I stay for awhile.

[overdraws]

Yeah, it doesn't seem like such a bad place. I don't know if I feel safer, here, but... it's almost like being at home.

[starspangled]

And where is home for you?

[overdraws]

Beacon Hills, California.

[starspangled]

The West Coast, huh. Ever see any movie stars?

[Though all of Steve's favorites are dead.]

[overdraws]

[ She laughs, but it's not mocking. ] Not that far north, although I did see Robert Downey Jr once when I lived in Los Angeles when I was ten.

[starspangled]

Oh yeah, I hear he's...he's good.

[Nope, not a clue.]

[overdraws]

[ She eyes him a bit. ] You've never seen anything he's been in?

[starspangled]

No. [Steve smiles sheepishly, but he cannot tell a lie.] I will though, if I get the chance again.

[overdraws]

Highly recommended.
