Steve Rogers | OTA
WHO: Steve and You?
WHERE: Agrii ship in the water area
WHAT: A pool party!!
WHEN: Around debates time
WARNINGS: Not sure, will edit!
Steve has been trying to get in touch with the Agrii for days now without any luck. So far it's mostly just been hanging out by the water. And a few of them can really hold their breath a long time, it seems. They seem uneasy if he swims too far, so he sticks by the shallower bit of the pool for now.
If nothing else, the lush greenery is a nice change of scenery, and some days there's all this bountiful delicious food, such that he hasn't had better since before arriving here.
So, one day, after fruitlessly searching around by himself and not finding any better leads, he invites a few fellow He-Rows over for what appears to be a pool party. It's open to anyone who happens to make it through the thick botany, and he's definitely trying to encourage the younger Agrii to come play with them. Food and drink are just from the mess hall, and the games are simple ones like a hand-drawn deck of cards, and sitting on each other's shoulders trying to knock off your opponent.
If anyone wants to play that game with him, he'd definitely make a better root than pusher - don't worry, he'll be sure to keep his balance, so long as your character wants to keep playing.
Partway through he gets tasked with going back to get more ice or snacks or something, so feel free to bump into him then or in his yellow speedo (that he most definitely did not pick out himself) and towel, gathering supplies. You'll definitely score an invitation if you ask.
Then, when the 'party' starts winding down, Steve's maybe a little disappointed in not having made much progress, though he's sure a few of the younger Agrii might be coming around to them, so it's not entirely a fruitless endeavor. But he's gotten his hands on a piece of paper and graphite, and he might even ask your character to stand still for a second, as they look really nice under this foliage, and it'll just take a few minutes, if they don't mind.
[ OoC: Feel free to respond to any of the things Steve is doing or throw up your own toplevel so other people can tag you at the 'party'! ]

"Your greatest asset was never your money, Tony." He'd thought maybe that the other one was just so busy on the west coast that he never came to visit, not that maybe he didn't feel like an integral part of the team.

"The kind of people that get mad enough at you to put on a mask and knock on your door for a fight, they're Nazis. You're a threat to the worst impulses of society. The kind of people I'm a threat to, it's my girlfriends. People who work for me. People who's kids I killed for a couple of dollars from the other side of the planet."

"I know he does, that's what I mean--" Tony did have to push irritably. "He's had the most patience with me, and even he is at capacity. I can't go back. You've been on the run for years and let him be happy, have his family. How is that different?"
no subject
But the present company isn't bad. It is, despite one of the most frustrating parts of this whole ordeal, also one of his favorites.
"The difference is that I'm not his boyfriend and he doesn't wait up for me to come home. He doesn't even call." Steve had left him that phone, okay. He tried.

"And I was the one who betrayed his trust, not the other way around. Thought I'd give him time to cool off." If anything in this situation, Steve's the one who would've had to send that 'hey honey' text.

And he definitely doesn't think Tony will take all of this rationally and reasonably.
"The truth was something that hurt him. I thought maybe I could spare him." He now specifically says him to distinguish from this Tony. Maybe then he won't think this lie pertains to him.

Eventually, he had to confront, "So, you're doing it again, because it worked out so well the first time." Steve had been refusing to admit that he was punishing himself for about a decade now. Only he knew how long he could maintain this lie before it became too unstable.
no subject
But yes, he's definitely doing it again, because he doesn't want to hurt any of the Tonies. And, well, Zemo's not here. But Bucky is.

"Can you please just accept that you're happier not knowing?"

So, really, what's the point? And usually if Steve's gotta bring bad news, then he'll have plans upon plans in tow. Yes, they'll shut down HYDRA, they'll work it out. But not this time.

Here they are again, feeling like they're having this argument, again.
"Fine. But I can't tell you." Because he'd rather Tony be mad at him than mad at Soldier, honestly.
