voice-testing oh god what am i even doing

[keptwatch]

Listen - mun, is it? Mun, then. We're both very busy women -

[Beat.

:/]

- me more than you, unquestionably, but regardless, there simply isn't enough time for you to 'play' me in a 'game,' and I hardly have the time to be put in one of them. So you see, it really is just best if we go our separate ways. I have a country to help rebuild, and you have - a multitude of beeping electrical things.

Let's leave well enough alone, mun. What do you say?

Yours,
Agent Carter

They're called computers.

Fuck, is everyone here from 1804?

[keptwatch]

It's 1943.

[OBVIOUSLY.]

I don't give a damn what they're called; they beep and are annoying.

[shaves]

I can think of one guy who'd flip his spangles to see you again, Agent Carter. You have three guesses and the first two don't count.

[starspangledheart]

If you think your mun has an annoying number of electronics, you should see the place where I'm living now...

[slingsandusesbing]

If you really want to complain about those beeping things, you should probably go yell at Alan Turing.

[starspangledheart]

.... "Flip his spangles"?

[shaves]

Spin your star? Pirouette in patriotism? Take your pick, bro.

[redjacketthief]

We're all in the same boat here, Agent Carter. Sometimes it's just easier to go along with it.

If you don't mind my asking, what kind of game was your desk jockey looking for?

[starspangledheart]

A spinning star sounds catchier.

[pirouetting is right out, because he still can't dance. in patriotism or otherwise.]

[keptwatch]

[He can't mean -

No. He doesn't mean him.]

I'm sure I've no idea who you mean, whoever you are.

[...you somewhat familiar looking man.]

[AND

SLAP.]

[notjustinthemirror]

No it's not.

[OBVIOUSLY.]

So unplug it. They get real mad when you mess with their electronics. Especially the one your mundane person is sitting in front of.

3/3

[keptwatch]

And just where the bloody hell are you living now?!

[keptwatch]

Alan Turing? The codebreaker? Why?

[shaves]

[ He'll pay you to try. In your costume. Old cinema is cool and all but who wouldn't want 3D-Surround Sound FXs? ]

Same difference, isn't it?

[keptwatch]

We might be in the same boat, but I don't intend to be in this boat for much longer.

['Desk jockey' gets a smile out of her.]

Something dreadful, I'm sure. She gets a bit of a thrill out of testing peoples' limits.

[shaves]

I'm the ghost of Christmas Future and your fairy godfather all wrapped up in one handy package, you should probably listen to me. It works out better for people if they do.

He really would, though. No kidding.

[shaves]

[ STEVE, THIS IS A GREAT GIRL, YOU SHOULD DATE HER AND HERE, HAVE TONY'S BLESSING TOO. Wowza. ]

[redjacketthief]

They all do~

But it's sometimes it's more interesting to stay on the boat for a little while before jumping ship. Does she have a game in mind? I can think of one that has a few friends of yours if she hasn't.

[starspangledheart]

[slkdfjdf oh god why]

Peggy...

oops, 2/2

[starspangledheart]

[he touches his stinging cheek, looking lost as to why she just did that. (nope, still does not understand wimmin. ;3;)]

In the 21st century..! They dug me out of the ice, and it's 2012....

[slingsandusesbing]

It might have something to do with him being one of the most famous minds involved in early computer development.

[starspangledheart]

[he tried. but then he became a Capsicle.]

[shaves]

[ EXCUSES. ]
