Please tell me they have something synthetic on tap at that vampire bar everyone keeps raving about.

If you've made it this far, then you're someone I'm interested in knowing. I'm Nikola Tesla, and you are...?

Yes, not everyone has a mommy and daddy with the bank accounts to put a pony in their backyard. Shame. I remember a time when it was either ride or walk -- if you weren't taking a train or knew someone with a carriage who could spare or a seat or two, that is. From mode of transportation to recreational activity. [ he makes a tsking noise, reaching out a hand for the nearest horse in the stall to his immediate left to sniff at. ]

Would that be a fear of riding itself, or a fear of what horses kept by this place are capable of?

[ she doesn't mind his tirade; in fact, she's heard like minded stories from her grandmother and her parents in their day. ]

Fear of riding itself. A horse can be a dangerous creature if held unchecked.

[ but she pats the neck of her horse and leads him into an empty stall, moving with ease and familiarity as she begins the task of removing his tack. ]

And quite frankly, isn't that a bit unfair? If there's a better means of transportation, shouldn't we develop it? [ and she can hardly forget Mr. Stark's flying car. Why, pretty soon, no one will even need to touch the ground. ]

Oh, I'm not an inventor. I'm the inventor.

[ which wasn't so much his ego (okay, his ego was playing a large part there, can't lie about that) as it was the freedom to lay claim to his name in a setting where time and faked deaths had no meaning, where there weren't greedy world powers out and about who would be more than happy to secure him for whatever scheme they had up their sleeves. (really, it's a miracle the human race hasn't obliterated itself yet.) ]

	[ she stifled a laugh ] And what have you invented then? Please, I would be interested to know. [ She is friends with Howard Stark, one of the greatest American inventors of her time. It would be difficult to compete. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ her surprise is visible as she takes in the many and varied inventions, recognizing most if not all. Telegeodynmics? She can guess, but she had never been very good with the more advanced sciences. She left that work to people who had imagination like Dr. Erskine and Mr. Stark. ]

That is an impressive resume. I will have you know that your work has been put to very good use. The radio is a particular favorite of mine. [ it was the only taste of home some of the soldiers had for months an years at a time it seemed. Had it really only been a handful of years? ]

	Thank you, and you're welcome. [ you're helping his ego here, peggy. he's rarely appreciated for his scientific accomplishments these days. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ which is such a shame. The radio truly has done wonders for the world. ] Have you been working on any other inventions, since your time here? It must be difficult, I would think, surrounded as you are with such advanced technology. [ it had been (and still was) overwhelming for Peggy ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Here? [ a shake of his head. ] No, I tend to regard my presence in Underwater Wonderland as more of a vacation than a business retreat.

[ he doesn't comment on the technology, though he'd be lying he said he wasn't intrigued — even more so that he wasn't humbled by it. both were true, though one would have an easier time getting him to admit to the former than the latter. ]

[ the abrupt headbutt to her shoulder made Peggy turn, demanding she pay attention to the tack she had been removing but moments before. It gave her a welcome moment, as it was, to digest his words. ]

It is rather more like a vacation then a prison, doesn't it? Even the so-called punishments seem fairly tame in comparison.

[ she said it cautiously, tentatively. It was for that reason alone that Peggy never truly felt comfortable in the dome. It never felt quite right. ]

	They're downright ridiculous, if you ask me. It's almost as if they were deliberately designed to be more of an annoyance than a punishment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I believe we are in agreement then. I'm not at all sure what they hope to have us learn from such meaningless and petty acts of contrition. [ but then she relents ] At least it is a step up from the stockades of yore at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she returns his handshake with a firm grip, well used to men who perhaps don't quite know their full strength. ] Peggy Carter. It's been a pleasure making your acquaintance. [ and slightly reminiscent of her discussions of old with her friends Mr. Stark and Dr. Erskine. They did like to so challenge her mind. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
