Dream ☆ 002

Affects: An overwhelming sense of pride and patriotism; not interactive
Warnings: Slight but not really CA:TFA spoilers?

[Steve woke before the soldiers could continue to taunt him. He sighed, running a hand through his hair after a moment.]

Definitely don't miss those days... [Definitely not. But it wasn't until he mumbled this that he noticed that the Dreamberry on his bedside table was on.

Whoops.]

...Guess the secret's out, huh?

That I'm....well, that I'm Captain America.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

You're a Captain! That's incredible! [Sorry Steve, young British child of the 1800s, she simply doesn't know who you are.]

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

[Aaaand, he's realizing she has no clue what he's talking about. But she's an adorable little girl; he can't help but laugh.]

That I am. Captain Steve Rogers, at your service.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Oh that's simply amazing! I didn't know that American miltary was made to sing and dance though!

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

[Another chuckle.] Not the entire military. That was just me. I got put promoting bond sells.

This was before I got the actual Captain title, too, for the record.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

What's a bond? Are they trying to make people really close to the military? It isn't very nice to force people to bond. They should bond by themselves shouldn't they?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

No, not that kind of bond. It's how the country raises money. They use the money they make selling bonds to support the military, get supplies, that sort of thing.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

A country needs to raise money? Doesn't the government have money already?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, it does. But wars are expensive.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Then... don't have wars.

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles.] Wish it were that easy.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

[She frowns.] So adults keep saying.

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

Believe me, I wish it wasn't like that. I wish peace could be found that easily. But sometimes, somethings are worth fighting for.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Yes, but you shouldn't have to fight for them in the first place.

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

No, you're right. No one should have to. But...unfortunately, things don't work that way.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

So I've been told. I wish people didn't have to fight...

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

I wish that too. Really, I do.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Why do be people fight if no one enjoys it?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

The thing is, some people do. I only fought to protect my country and the people important to me.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Mnn... but... why do they like to fight?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

Some people just are...they're just cruel and don't care about hurting others to get what they want.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

What is it those people want? Is it something that will just hurt more people?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

Money, power. Some just like to cause others pain for the fun of it.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

That's awful! How could their parents let them become that way?

[savesthedance.livejournal.com]

Doesn't sound like good parenting at all, does it?
