[it's steve's first time on the network, though anyone who's met the other steve might need a second glance. he's sitting on his bed, a box of cookies on one side, and a familiar shield propped up against his knee.]

So I guess I'm not one of the new kids anymore. [there's new names, new faces - some familiar ones too.] For anyone who just got here, it's okay if you feel a little bit overwhelmed. I woke up once before and the world had changed, so I guess I might've been a little more prepared for it than most. My advice is to keep busy if you can - they say action is the antidote to despair. Find your friends too, or make new ones. There's no shortage of good people here.

[that's not his cue, but might as well make his introduction here.]

My name's Steve Rogers - the other one. If I can lend a hand with something, if you need an escort beyond the fences, just say the word. [steve glances down, gripping the edge of his shield for a moment.] Someone must've gone through some trouble to get this back to me. I figure I owe it to them to put it to good use.

Now, if it's the cookies you're asking about... [steve sighs, like that requires a little more consideration.] They're really good, but my ma did teach me to share. I bet I could get some more, maybe even some homemade ones.

[that little smirk has 'right, sam?' written all over it.]

I just might do that. It would help keep us both busy, right?

[yokunaru]

I think so. It's...a good way to meet and make friends, too.

[A little daunting to think about how so many people here are unfamiliar to him, but Yuuri knows the lessons will provide chances to meet some new faces.]

[starspangled]

I could always use another one of those. You're Yuri, right?

[since he mentioned the 'other yuri' before.]

[yokunaru]

That's right. Telling you about the nicknames gave it away, didn't it?

[He doesn't seem to mind. In fact, he's perked up obviously in his tone.]

I could use another one, too. [He pauses, then gives a little, self-deprecating laugh.] I guess it's easier to make friends when you've had a shake up like this.

[starspangled]

You're a friendly guy. I would think that it'd be easy for you anywhere.

[yokunaru]

[There's a longer pause before he replies.]

I think there are friendlier people around. [He says softly.] But, um, thank you. I'm glad you think so.
