[ Action, 627 Topper ]

[ Uh yeah, so Steve is waking up next to a drone for the first time and falls out of bed because hey, wasn't he in 2012 a second ago? And wasn't he, you know, taller? He's going to do the right thing this time, which is not freak out and tear a hole through the wall, probably because it would kill him to do so.

Instead, he will walk downstairs and snoop around and-- there's a picture of him on the wall, smiling, with his 'wife' and two kids.

He sees a rotary dial on the phone and he picks up to call numbers he remembers from 2012. And then numbers he remembers from 1943. And then zero. And then hangs up and goes to rifle through anything he can find in the shoeboxes of the downstairs closet to tell him where he is and why he's there.

Have fun waking up to your new dad sifting through files all over the kitchen table. ]

[ Action, around town ]

[ He doesn't believe this for a second. But this isn't just any sort of thing; he's small again. Someone's trying to make him forget. So he walks around town, because the one thing he needs right now is to get out of town. ]

Excuse me. Do you know the way to the train station?

[ He blinks a couple of times. ]

Excuse me?

Don't recognize me? That's fine, but I'll never forget your face. You killed Dr. Abraham Erskine, and I'm taking you down.

Kid, I have no idea who you're talking about. [ Okay, so he's killed a lot of people in his day, and he sure doesn't know all of their names, but he's pretty sure this little runt would be somewhat memorable if he was tagging along with this doctor whatever. ]

Brooklyn, 1943.

But it doesn't matter now, 'cause I'm gonna make sure you don't hurt anyone again.

[ Yeah uh, kid's just gonna hurt himself, but he will try for the punch anyway........... army trained or not, this isn't actually going to hurt much. ]

[ Pffft, wow that is pathetic. Warren isn't even going to waste any magic in blocking that. He just sort of takes it, an unamused expression on his face ]

Seriously?

[ Okay, that's not making Steve feel any better, so he's going to just throw a few more punches, trying to put them in slightly.... more... painful spots except he's really outmatched.

He's exhausting himself.

Fuck his life, he wishes he were big again. ]

At least show some remorse.

[ Warren just sort of takes to... stepping out of the way as Steve gets more and more tired. ]

Are you done? Because I'm pretty sure I wasn't anywhere close to Brooklyn in 1943.

Yeah, and I bet you don't remember what HYDRA is either.

The monster from Greek myth? The constellation? The moon? The island? Am I getting warm?

...What's your name and where are you from?

[ Heaviest sigh ]

My name is Warren West. [ a beat, as he waits to see if there's a reaction. His name is fairly well-known in wizarding circles, and if he did kill who this guy is claiming he killed, it might ring a bell. ] And I--- oh my God, do you think I'm a Nazi?

...Yes?

[ Pffffft hahahaha ] You couldn't be further from the truth.

I think I'd believe you more if I didn't see you murder a friend of mine.

And why would I have supposedly murdered this friend of yours?

[ Can't hurt to remind him ]

You were aiming for me.

Why? [ Seriously, this guy can't even hit hard. Why would he be trying to kill him? ]

...You don't remember anything about the super soldier project.

I can't remember what I never knew in the first place.

[ SIGH ] Okay, look, this is getting annoying. What do I have to do to prove I'm not who you think I am?

[ Oh.

There isn't. ]

Nothing.

[ But that guy was really obsessed with HYDRA-- enough to kill himself. But he hears that people here might be from the past, so... ]

But if you see a man with a red skull for a head, do us both a favor and stay away from him.

Right. I'll keep that in mind.

And you are?

Steve Rogers. And don't think I believe you for a moment.

And don't think I find you remotely threatening for a moment, either.

Doesn't matter, you're still on my watch and I won't let you kill anyone.

Why would I want to, anyway? Or has no one told you people don't stay dead here?
