[public video;]

[Say hello to Peggy, sitting at a console with what looks like the designs of a Fire Sector suite in the background. For the tech savvy, the console address is traceable to Steve Rogers.]


I hope those displaced from the Earth Sector fire have found a place to stay until the suites can be rebuilt or new homes. Fortunately, it looks as if the damage was contained before it spread too far. I think this situation is exactly the sort of thing a council for us ‘foreigners’ would be good for, and I mean in the sense of checking the damages, injuries, and helping people find temporary lodgings.

[Not necessarily hunting down perpetrators. And she has her suspicions on what might have started it, but that is not going out publicly. So on a different note!]

Though we can all understand the spoken word and each other here, I’ve found that’s not the case with the written. I’ve started making efforts to crack the kedan language, as it were, but there’s very little to help along these lines. Picking up words on signs is one thing, but a grasp of the grammar and structure is another.

Has anyone else been trying to do the same? I’m not sure much more will be possible unless we find the kedan version of a Rosetta Stone, to be honest.

[she’s not worried about it being hacked, but she’s not interested in attempting to publicly ping someone for a one-on-one conversation either.]
Favrielle, I’d like to commission you once more. Would you prefer discussion in person?

[And then text;]

If you can understand this, please respond.

Gesundheit. And, ah, I'm fluent in Japanese, but I'm not sure if this keyboard can be switched over for the proper characters.

[What is this 'Eszett' you speak of.]

It's lovely to meet you, Ms. Carter.

[Doop doop doop.]

そですか

[Whup, there we go. He doesn't really try to be too perfect at it. Bruce Wayne being fluent in Japanese doesn't have anything to do with Batman being fluent in Japanese, after all. He can to fake mistakes in one persona, not so the other.]

That's correct, yes. It's an area of my industry back home in Gotham.

Ah, it's essentially a formal way of saying 'is that so?' I spent quite a few of my formative years in the country. I'm possibly a little rusty now, and my teacher never did think much of my accent.

[He laughs a little, shakes his head.]

You could say that again. It's been interesting, trying to build a corporation from the ground-up. But I do enjoy the challenge, and I've had the good fortune to work with some very talented individuals. Local and otherwise.

That is true.

[He shrugs, then. Careless.]

Some antibiotics, though they're presently for human consumption only. Painkillers of a stronger grade than your local alchemist. Contraceptives, etc. You'd have to speak to one of my actual technicians to get a better idea of what we're stocking at the moment.

[He smiles.]

I'm afraid science is all Greek to me, Ms. Carter.

A place for everything and everything in its place, mm? So what is it you do, Ms. Carter?

[Even 'Bruce Wayne' is smart enough not to cheerfully inquire after her secretarial abilities, okay.]

Oh?

Mm, yes. Late 2010, specifically.

[Because sliding comic timelines.]

You're a little out of your own time, then. Well, if you ever feel as if you need the wonders of the modern world explained to you, I'm only a call away.

[He bets this entire conversation is pissing Captain America off.]

It'll stand as long as it might be of some use to you. Thank you for your time.

Mmm, you can always ask me directly, if necessary. Or you can speak with Miranda Lawson.
