So I know it's only been two days, but anyone who's made it through two days of Basic so far - trust me. It could be worse. [He cocks a wry grin. Bucky's not the worst drill sergeant Steve's seen, and besides:] You could have asthma.
[Yeah, he's pretty sure he almost died at least ten times during Basic. And he got the much abbreviated version.
Anyway.]
If anyone's got any questions, or just wants to get in some extra practice with a different face, let me know. But, [he raises one finger,] I'm not your Drill Sergeant, and I'm not about to contradict anything he says just because you want to hear he's wrong - because he's not. [So just keep that in mind. Steve might be helping Bucky, but Bucky's in charge here.]
[PRIVATE TO MINDY MACREADY]
Hey. Just because I'm not your temporary warden anymore doesn't mean we need to ignore each other, right? Remember, I'm right down the hall if you need anything - whether it's a couch or a punching bag. [Literally or figuratively.
Still, he doesn't want to push. She doesn't seem like she'd respond well to that. He can only offer, she's got to take him up on it. So.] Otherwise... I'm sure I'll see you in the gym.
[PRIVATE TO VEX]
[He's seen Vex on the network, but they've never spoken. Now, though, it looks like that's going to have to change.] I guess I should introduce myself - I'm Captain Rogers. Or you can call me Steve. I admit, I don't know much about you - but I'd like to think I'm a pretty good listener.

[She's making that face that's smiling and cringing at the same time.]
It actually does sound like it would be kind of fun though. Like camp, or Scouts. Only even more intense. I'm totally on board. Where do I go to enlist? Do I need Cassel to sign off on it?
Re: [video]
[And they're not in the history books much. Then again, neither is the SSR - explicit mentions of them, anyway.] They were called HYDRA.
[Still are.
But he's not sure she wants to hear about it. So.] Honestly? Just show up tomorrow morning - uh. 5am, at the CES. I don't think Bucky'll have a problem with it, but if you want to ask Cassel to clear it with him before tomorrow, it couldn't hurt.

[She can tell he really, really doesn't want to talk about this though. So she should probably stop from asking anymore questions.]
Okay, I'll run it by him then. 5 am though? Wow, you guys really are taking this thing hardcore.
[video]
[It's just... a really, really sore spot. Probably always will be. Although in a way, it's good for people to at least know they existed, because they don't usually make it into the history books.
He does start to smile, though, at her last comment.]
Hey, he could've made it 4.
