[  Steve isn't sure where he is, or how he got even got here. He remembers that day very well. And he shouldn't be here. Wherever here is.

He looks down the dark, wet streets of the city as the snow continues to fall with a look of confusion etched into his brows. Things are different, and more, it feels different. Not at all like he remembers.

[And today on Buffy trolls the Avengers ... ]

We can here you. The whole city can hear you. I ... don't know if any of those people are here, but the name Stark sounds familiar.

[backin_theworld]

Oh. [he'd do the whole shy thing, but he's just too lost with everything to really care too much] You wouldn't happen to know where I might find him, would you?

He's got a mansion somewhere in the city, but ... I thought his name was Tony.

[a half-shrug, that he can't see, but it's in her voice]

He had a party there once. I didn't make it, but a lot of people were invited.

Re: audio }

[backin_theworld]

I guess maybe it's just coincidence, cause the guy I know is definitely not called Tony.

[he continues walking. he has no idea where the heck he's going, but it's better than standing around getting cold. oh the irony]

[trenchcoatism]

Hello, Captain Steve Rogers.

Re: voice;

[backin_theworld]

Uh, hi. Who is this?

[trenchcoatism]

My name is Castiel. [So sorry about this, Steve, but Castiel really was just trying to be helpful.]

[backin_theworld]

Oh. But, you're with the U.S Military, right? [It's okay Castiel, Steve is just lost. Not just physically, but mentally, too.]

[When Howard turned on his communicator to search the network this was the last message he thought he would be hearing.]

Jesus Christ! Steve is that really you, pal?

[He's so damn relieved to hear you are alive. ;;]

[backin_theworld]

Howard?! Yeah, it's me! Where are you?

[He's relieved?? How about how relieved Steve is to just hear his voice?]

[billionaire_dad]

[He opens his mouth to try to explain where he is at but promptly shuts it because it seriously won't make sense right now.]

Long story, but I think Miss Potts is sending someone to bring you here. I can explain the details to you in person.

[Nevermind he is facepalming at his kid AND Loki. Thanks for talking about the tesseract in public Loki. =_=]

Fair warning, the entire story might sound crazy to you at first.

[backin_theworld]

[Good thing he can't see you, Howard.]

Yeah, she is. Haven't seen anyone yet though.

[He's still looking for his shield, but now he's pretty sure it didn't make the trip with him]

I've been here less than an hour and already heard some it.

[miseryismyotp]

I know a Tony Stark but if you've still got your shirt on you're probably not one of his guys.

[backin_theworld]

... I'm not sure I understand.

[miseryismyotp]

I'm saying I don't know if my Stark is related to yours but my Stark always takes his shirt off and so do his friends.

[backin_theworld]

Um. The Stark I'm looking for doesn't do that. I don't think.

[not_taserproof]

[ It takes him a while to remember how to work his network device again...but now seems a good time. ]

Are you certain of that?

[backin_theworld]

That I'm alive? No. Not really.

[Pause; lower voice]

Actually.. I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be.

[not_taserproof]

There is a young woman here who claims that she is dead, yet walks and speaks as we do.

It does not seem that this realm discriminates between living and dead. What matters is what you believe to be true.

[backin_theworld]

I can't say for sure. Last thing I remember is being in a plane and it crashing somewhere in the Atlantic.

[he'll leave out that little fact that he was the one who decided to crash it]
