They've established that people are pulled into this world from different points in time. He has reason to hope. ]

Reporting, Captain Rogers. Yes, it’s me. In a manner of speaking.

Are you well?

[shield]

I'm fine.

[ He's a better liar over text. ]

[ you really, really couldn’t. ]

In Arcadia. Available to support Agent Romanoff on-site as needed. But I can report in-person at any time, barring potential complications with the teleporters.
