thirteen. voice. your blood, your bones, your voice, & your ghost.

[This worked last time. Vin isn't even sure if she liked it, but the temptation is too great to pass up a second time.]

If you're not dead or on the Barge already, I want to hear you. I'm here. I'm not dead.

[For the moment.]

"I'm not dead", in my experience, is always a positive start.

Far as I know, I'm not either. And last I checked I'm pretty certain I'm not on this "barge". So where does that leave me, in your opinion?

[She considers this.]

Somewhere else.

Somewhere better, probably.

Well admittedly, I've got no complaints. But that's to be expected.

I'm Sam, Sam Wilson. What's your name?

Vin Venture. Do you know where I am?

I've been talking with a friend of mine and some other folks. You're on a prison spaceship, of sorts?

That's right.

Who's your friend?

Captain America. Believe it or not.

Oh! I like him. We fought.

Meaning you fought something together, or...?

No, we sparred.

I won.

[u_u]

Well now I really am impressed.

Him and me, we met when we were both out jogging. Only I wasn't exactly able to take him in that, myself.

It's all right. Don't feel bad. I cheat.

Far as I'm concerned, so does he. We're not all super soldiers, you know.

Even super soldiers have weaknesses.

Steve's seem to be doing the right thing, and pancakes.

And puppies, I'll bet.

Pancakes are very good. I couldn't blame him.

They're a pretty universal good guy weakness. Good thing Hydra didn't know.

Hydra?

It's sort of a long story. We'll just call them "the bad guys".

That's very vague.
