Steve never played with Legos--they didn't come to the States until after he was a Capsicle. They do look like fun, though, and he's smiling as he moves through the bar, watching other people build things.

At the Bar herself, a vidscreen pops up. He reads the information with a widening grin, and decides, Sure, let's do something different for the holiday. It's kind of like wearing new clothes on Easter.

So, his choices are:


So cute and fluffy! Steve kind of likes being able to walk and talk, though, so he passes.



Some sort of ... robot thing?

Steve feels like he's missing a joke.


And then there's simply Restore to factory settings.




Huh.

Ever press a button just to see what it does?



Well, he can't say this was wholly unexpected.

Having witnessed the transformation Amanda laughs "I love this place." the asks, "Don't you want to stay that way for a bit? Could be interesting."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve looks down at himself. "I spent the first twenty-five years of my life like this, ma'am. A few days is plenty."

[immortalthief]

Waving off the misunderstanding, "I was referring to the stiff wooden looking thing." she doesn't know what a robot it yet. "It looked interesting."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Mostly Steve wonders how she saw it.

"Maybe next time," Steve says dryly and climbs into a bar stool.

[immortalthief]

Amanda creases her forehead for a brief moment, "Is there something wrong?"

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"My clothes are too big," Steve says, hitching up his trousers. "Sorry, I'm forgetting my manners. Steve Rogers, Earth, 2013."

[immortalthief]

Amanda accepts his hand with a smile, "Amanda, Earth, 1635." then offers, "If that's the problem I could probably fix that."

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Oh, thanks, but I can get some stuff from the bar."

[immortalthief]

Amanda nods, "Okay." then thinking back to what he said earlier, "You mentioned you spent the first 25 years of your life like this, does that mean you have changed form before?..Was it in bar or back in your world?" she wonders if maybe he is a shape shifter.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"It was back in my world, with the help of some science."

[immortalthief]

"I will have to learn this science better." she states, "Based on what I have seen amazing things will come of it." she says with a bit of awe.




[OOC: Need to go slow-time until tomorrow night if you don't mind.]

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"It can do some pretty amazing things," Steve understates.

[ooc: Sure.]

[immortalthief]

"I'm sure you can" she says sincerely, she's been around Milliways long enough to believe it. Then because she can't help but be curious, "Like what?"

Orpheus had dismissed his own vidscreen after a brief perusal. He doesn't feel the need to be anything other than himself just now.

He slides onto a stool at the bar, not recognizing the man next to him. (He looks for shoulders. Those are not the shoulders he looks for.)

"Just a beer, I think," he says to Bar.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Well well well...this is exactly who he hoped to see.

"Hello, sailor," he says in a low voice.

[golden_lyre]

Oh, well now. That voice is something he could hardly fail to recognize. He turns to Steve with a smile...

and then looks down to actually see him.

"Steve! Gods, what happened?"

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Cubefall," Steve says simply. "This is my, uh, factory settings.

"Orpheus, meet pre-serum me."

[golden_lyre]

"Oh."

Well.

So long as it isn't permanent and isn't going to hurt him...

"It's...small," he says eloquently.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Steve tilts his head, and then nods to himself and picks up his drink.

[golden_lyre]

"Hey, that's not a bad thing!" Orpheus insists, reaching out hesitantly to touch Steve's shoulder, resisting the urge to poke.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"I know," Steve says. "I've wondered what you'd think of me like this, that's all."

[golden_lyre]

"What should I think?" Orpheus asks with a shrug. "You're still you." He moves his hand from Steve's shoulder to his chest. "That is still the heart I love."


[ooc: Your tag disappeared!]

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

"Yeah?" Steve says softly, putting his hand on top of Orpheus's. "Even though I'm not tall and broad anymore?"



[ooc: Weird!]

[golden_lyre]

"Yes," Orpheus answers, just as softly. He leans in to kiss Steve slowly.

[thekidfrombrooklyn]

Well, that's reassuring. Steve inhales slowly, gripping Orpheus's hand.
