"This is Steve Rogers. Um, leave a message, I guess."

Comments

[gavegoodface]

Face had realised that the phones were acting up almost immediately. That didn't stop him from picking a random number on his comm and helping the message along.

"I don't mind bouncing my ass for you, but I'm the kind of guy who needs dinner and drinks first."

Sorry, Steve

[heroic_jawline]

[To: here, here and here!

I'm not sure who's been saying what, sweet thing, but I'm lewd in the mornings, not crude. It's completely different. If you and your pants come down to my ship tonight, I'll show you.

By now Lucille was quite worried. Would owning a telephone mean she would have to put up with indecent messages constantly? Perhaps Cassandra would know.

"I am sorry to bother you again, but does it do this often? This telephone, is it only used for strange, obscene messages? Because I'm not sure I care to listen to them every day. Or do you think getting used to them is the best thing? Forget what I said about the kitchen knife. But... is this how courtship is done nowadays? Suggesting that one should take off items of clothing before even having a polite conversation? In that case I believe I prefer books."

[OOC: It went here!]

[heroic_jawline]

To here!

[furnaceface]

"I'm not jealous of what anybody does with their mouths with their elders or anybody else! STOP BLOODY RUBBING IT IN."

... Okay, maybe Jonothon was a little jealous.

A lot jealous.

There was absolutely jealous incoherent muttering before he hung up the phone.

[OOC: Poor Zoe gets to listen to Steve unspool...]

[geniuswithasmartphone]

[From here because it's fun to be mean to Steve!]

"Wait, you didn't know about the threesomes? Yo girl, my whole life is a threesome. Well, I mean, a bisexual polyamorous triangle if you wanna get you Ethical Slut verbiage on, but whatever yo. I ain't sure how you missed that, cause we ain't really all that secret about it. I mean, you know, Eliot's got that thang about commitment, but whatever, it ain't like we're talkin' marriage yet or nothin'. Though I ain't all that sure what you mean by lookin', cause that's more Eliot's thing than mine. I mean--I'm sure you're worth lookin' at! But we barely ain't even met yet! Here. Why don't you come down to the diner sometime an' we can talk more, a'ight? I'll tell you all about what it's like bein' in a threesome--answer any questions you got, alla that."

Don't lie, Steve. You would have loved that option back in the 40's.

*laughter* "Sparkle? We would scare that boy out of his mind! I'm not saying no, though. We should talk later. Knives are definitely possible!"

[imafuturist]

Tony kindly sent a quick text of: So, I might be doing tequila shots with Kitty right now. Might need a ride home later.

Did he need to follow that up with a winking emoji? Nah. He did that out of the kindness of his heart.

Wacky Phone Day!

[slothbabyproductions]

Kamala got a strange message and meant to reply back but... well, you know the deal.

So the text message Steve received is:
So... you think you're a hero? Really? It's more than just wearing a mask. Plus what's your superpower? Goofy dance moves?"

Wacky Phone Day!

[afraid_of_marshmallows]

She hadn't had one of Professor Scientia's classes and didn't recognize his voice, so she could be excused for thinking that his message was just somebody thinking they were funny.

Fandom had probably routed it here because of the island's love of maximum drama.

"Okay, I don't know how many times I have to say this, but we're not dating! We don't like each other like that, we're just friends, okay? So stop trying to turn this into something it's not, goddess."

Re: Wacky Phone Day!

[heroic_jawline]

here!

[shapethecentury]

It was much too early on Monday morning, when the text came in. For most people, anyway.

Back, park

It was just two words, yeah. Texting wasn't going to be enough, anyway, so might as well keep it simple.

[shapethecentury]

Happy birthday, old man

Had Bucky started out as the older of the two? Irrelevant. They were both ancient now.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve beamed at his phone.

Thanks, pal! Going for a senior discount lunch just to watch the waitress' expression when I ask for it. It's the little things. I don't feel a day over 85.

[shapethecentury]

90 for me, lucky you

[heroic_jawline]

Tony tells me it's 106 but I refuse to listen.

[shapethecentury]

Must mean it's 107 for me

All of these numbers were actively meaningless with the kind of lives they'd led. (or not led, for large chunks of Bucky's life.)

[heroic_jawline]

That makes you ancient!

Could you feel the glee in there, Bucky?

I think it's easier to count the time we've been awake.
