☆ 1 ☆ (VIDEO)
[The video shows Steve, wearing his uniform because it seemed… well, the most reasonable thing to wear, for a “mission” like this.]
Just when I thought I’d gotten the hang of texting. [He smiles a little, as if more to himself than anything, then moves, reaching to unstrap the dark helmet from beneath his chin, pulling it off and setting it aside to reveal short blonde hair. He's in his cabin, which pretty much just looks like a generic 2014-era apartment.] We’ll do this over video. I guess it’s more personal, anyway. I’m Captain Rogers. I guess I'm here to help.
Because if you’re here, then it means you deserve that help. Everyone deserves a second chance - [He pauses, lips quirking a little in a wry sort of half-smile.] Well. Everyone here, anyway. That’s what I believe. [Because there are exceptions, but he’s not here to give in to exceptions. He’s here to prove the rule.]
Not everyone gets the luxury of signing up, though, so if you’re still confused about… all of this, then trust me. I know how you feel. [He might have signed up for this, but he’s definitely been on a couple of trips he didn’t sign up for.] You’ll get used to it. People can get used to just about anything – and I’d like to believe that’s a strength, rather than a weakness.
[A pause.] Oh – and if anyone needs a sparring partner at the gym… I guess I’d better stay sharp. Just let me know. [He doesn’t plan to stay here forever, after all.] I didn’t bring any extra punching bags with me. [A helpless smile? Then he's done.]

As long as scuffles aren't common, though. I know a lot of the rules are strange, around here, but the less violence, the better. For us all.

Less violence gets my vote every time.

I guess that's what the wardens are for. Maybe the less violence there is, the better we're doing our job. [Although clearly there are exceptions. Like these floods he's been hearing about.] Overall, at least.
