[quirks an eyebrow]

But you know of him.

[senior_citizen]

Dr. Banner told me about him.

[scienceping]

... May I ask what he told you?

[senior_citizen]

[ hesitates ]

Some ... really strange things. About me being Captain America?

[scienceping]

Correct, that is also how I know you.

[senior_citizen]

Then you know the other me.

[scienceping]

So it would appear.

[senior_citizen]

I never did any of that. All I did was stay home and wait for everything to fall apart.

[scienceping]

You did not attempt to join?

[senior_citizen]

'course I did. They found me out though.

[scienceping]

I beg your pardon?

[senior_citizen]

It's illegal to falsify your papers.

[scienceping]

Ah. You had told me you did apply multiple times. That was how you met Dr. Erskine, I believe.

[senior_citizen]

I didn't, this time. They arrested me instead.

[scienceping]

Can I ask where you were discovered?

[senior_citizen]

They had a recruitment booth at the expo. They caught me there.

[scienceping]

[huhhhhhhh]

I believe that was where you told me that you met Dr. Erskine.

[senior_citizen]

[ ??? ]

I did? There?

[scienceping]

You had somehow caught his attention there.

[senior_citizen]

[ shakes his head ]

I didn't.

[scienceping]

You imply another did.

[senior_citizen]

I told you before. Dr. Banner said he knew a version of me that did work with Erskine.

[scienceping]

Who caught your Erskine's attention?

[senior_citizen]

... I don't know. I never heard of Captain America back home.

[scienceping]

... Fascinating. An alternate universe.
