Who: Ickle Steve (That's Capsickle to you) and Darcy Lewis
What: Wandering Goodland and being a bit overwhelmed
When: Saturday afternoon
Where: Wandering a strange new world
Warnings: Probably not

This was not home. This was not even remotely like home. It was louder, and busier, and...honestly, so much to process Steve didn't even know where to begin. Maybe he should have been putting more thought into the how, but he was too caught up in trying to find something familiar that he hadn't really taken the time to consider ending up here at all and what exactly that meant.

The cars were so different, and there were so many. The shiny box thing he'd found in his pocket kept making noises, but he couldn't figure out how to make it stop. He'd tried pressing the buttons but that had only made the noises louder, so he'd shoved it back in his pocket.

What he needed to do was find someone he thought could help him. But everyone walking past him on the street had seemed in such a hurry, and had barely paid him a scrap of attention. With any luck if he kept walking he'd eventually find something remotely familiar, or maybe even someone he knew. Maybe Bucky was here. He'd probably know what was going on.

It was nice of her to offer. She certainly didn't have to. And it wasn't every day he got to have ice cream. He took the offered spoon. "That's very kind of you." He didn't quite know how to go about eating ice cream in the middle of the street, though.

"I guess that's good news." His response was a little uncertain. He hadn't honestly considered it on the list of possible things that might happen here. "Where abouts do you stay?" If she'd been here more than a day, she must have somewhere to sleep.

This standing and eating thing was going to get old real fast, she could tell. So Darcy lead Steve over to the curb, beside a light pole, and took a seat on the sidewalk. Maybe her butt would get dirty, maybe it wouldn't. That was a problem for Future Darcy.

"Did you wake up in an apartment building?" she asked, watching him. "In there. Everyone like us, the people who just showed up, live in there."

Sitting on the sidewalk eating ice cream wasn't going to help him figure anything out in a hurry. But Darcy was being kind, and he'd been walking around for a while now. He could use a break. He sat beside her, eyes on the building opposite.

"No, I was in an alley. I don't really remember waking up I was just there." It had been strange, to say the least. "I thought I was still at home, at first."
