revivalproject | [storm] come get steve he's a menace

WHO: Steve Rogers + You ?
WHERE: Around Temba
WHAT: Catch-all for the event
WHEN: During the event
WARNINGS: Well Steve is losing his powers for a bit I guess. Violence, maybe?

Oct 10th - ~14th

Someone probably should have told Steve Rogers to stay put, but it's Steve Rogers, so he's doing no such thing. Unfortunately for everyone around him, he's lost his serum, which means that he's currently swimming in his shirt and had to cut a new hole in his belt just to hold his pants up, because he doesn't have time or resources to go to Alien Target to get a new set of clothes.

If you're lucky, then you'll meet him at the hospital, where he'll be tending whatever wounds you have, extremely carefully.

And if you're unlucky, then he's out on town trying to gather supplies or find food to bring back, or even just to check in on other people. It seems that no one remembered to remind Steve that he's no longer resistant to whatever's in the air, so he doesn't travel long distances. And whether he ducks inside wherever you are just to breathe a little easier, or whether he's outside looking like whatever he's carrying is bigger than he is, well. He's struggling a little.

And if you're really, really unlucky, Steve might be in the middle of engaging with one of the creatures. What he lacks in combat ability, he has in spades in actual learned skill, so even though he's having a real hard time with it because there's no power in his kicks and he'd absolutely get bodied by a large rodent, he's still out here trying. He's just in need of an assist.

Somehow, luckily, Steve's managed to stay alive, and he's run into a couple uh, familiar-adjacent faces. After he parts ways with them, he heads on over to the department store in order to find the gate so that he can help shut it down. With his acrobatic skill, resistance to poison, and newly-acquired energy shield, he's much-better equipped than he had been to run around town.

He makes it late enough to see people gathering around it, though the creatures keep coming out so it's not like it's hard to miss. "Behind you!" he shouts as he tosses his shield at one of the demo dogs, knocking it to the side and catching his giant laser frisbee.

"Good," he says, as he tries to hand off the items to Sonic, so that he can eat.

"This is what we have downstairs. I'll try to get something else but - delivery's a little sparse at the moment."

Sonic takes the food and is already like half way through his bread by the time Steve finishes talking. Hm, not a lot of food. Just like being stuck underground during the volcano thing. Right. Maybe Sonic should slow down and pace himself just a bit.

"Don't worry about it, save what's left for someone else. I'm not very big, I don't need as much food."

Is that actually true?? He's not saying!

Yeah, but Sonic's got a fast metabolism. Maybe not anymore. "I'll scrounge something up." It's a promise. He'll at least try.

At least, in this form, Steve eats pretty much next to nothing.

Right now, the metabolism isn't anything impressive, at least. When they were all trapped underground with limited food and Sonic still had his powers, it was a real bad time. He can handle this.

"For someone else, right?"

HE'S FINE STEVE.

"Uh," he says, convincingly. "Yeah, I'm also really hungry."

So good at this. At least Sonic knows Steve could never ever lie to him because boy is he terrible at it. If he gave a fake name, it'd probably be Roger Stevens.

"I totally believe that."

He doesn't. It's okay, Sonic's a terrible liar too, they can bond over it.

He'll only go later, anyway, when there's someone else to watch Sonic, probably. He does want to make sure Sonic gets over his sleepiness. But it does look like his leg is patched up - unless his wounds burst open or he gets an infection, Steve will internally breathe a sigh of relief.

"How's the leg now?" he asks.

"Still uncomfortable? But not near what it was before, it feels a lot better."

At least for now. Now let's see how long he can stay off that leg and let it heal!

...Not long, it turns out. As soon as powers start coming back he's going to be running his ass off and just messing it up all over again, but that's a future Sonic problem.

Steve will find it a relief when he does heal, but he'll be worried the entire time Sonic is running around on that leg.

For now, though, he'll let it go. "Great." He checks Sonic for a fever, and then he checks that his leg isn't swelling, too.

As he should be.

No fever, the leg hasn't swollen up any more which could half be because of the bandages, but that's fine.

"There aren't any spare blankets around here, are there?" Cuz ya boi is pretty chilly now that's he's done running around and getting eaten.

"I'll go look for one," Steve says, because he really actually doesn't know if there are. But he's sure there must be; it's a hospital.

"Stay right here. One second." In the meantime, he can have Steve's jacket. It's too big for him anyway, since it fit on him before the event.
