[starspangled]

[Right before he broke his biggest one.]

Right?

[Steve snorts.]

Maybe tomorrow.

[wipedclean]

[He echoes the snort. But then he's quiet for a moment.]

How long will you be there?

[starspangled]

I don't know.

[He sighs. That seems to be his answer to a lot of things these days.]

I guess until I'm needed somewhere else.

[wipedclean]

[That makes sense. He's quiet for a moment again.]

I'll... be with Ariadne.

[starspangled]

I know.

[wipedclean]

[He's quiet again, for longer this time.]

Do you love her?

[starspangled]

[That question catches him off-guard. Steve's quiet for a minute.]

Yeah, I think I do. But...

[There's worry at the edge of his voice. Things he's started to notice lately. Things that scare him as much as anything can.]

I don't know what's gonna happen.

[wipedclean]

[It's what he thought, really. It's certainly not a surprise.]

I don't either.

[He certainly was unprepared for falling asleep, and everything that's happened since he woke up.]

I'll keep her safe.

[starspangled]

Thanks. Make sure you do the same for yourself.

[wipedclean]

Okay.

[He's not entirely sure he can promise that, but for Steve, he'll try.]
