What you too?? That's apparently been everyone's go to.

I guess it makes sense, being soldier boy and all but

[ Alas, later Bucky would understand. ]

Never think of the vigilante life?

[godwins]

How do you mean?

[ He's sort of unfamiliar with the concept. Explain, Kate. ]

[quivers]

What, vigilantes? You know - superheroes?

[ Actually, come to think of it, what were superheroes pre-Cap? ]

[godwins]

Tourists?

[quivers]

??

People who dress up in costume and save the world?
No? Too soon?

[godwins]

That's what they call the people who wear costumes with no powers.
Tourists

[quivers]

What?

I'm no tourist, sir.

[godwins]

And I'm no sir

It isn't my word. I heard it from the Liberty Legion.

[quivers]

You picked up a word from somewhere with a title as tacky as Liberty Legion?

[godwins]

Nothing wrong with the Liberty Legion. Miss America? The Patriot? You ever heard of them?

I'll give you the Whizzer, though, that guy needed to work on the callsign.

[ Ed's Note: the 21st century reprise was named the Liberteens, which is probably worse. ]

[quivers]

Those names were really part of that Legion thing?
Damn, I need to get back on the books with my supe history.

But yes, actually.

Miss America happens to be my bff.
Patriot? Just that ex we don't talk about.

[godwins]

Absolutely. I put the team together, I would know. Handled mostly fifth-column bozos during the war.

I don't know what bff means
