The thought had formed pretty much as soon as he'd opened the box that was left on the front porch. The people here need a way to talk. There are two rooms in the house where they would be free to do so. He'd come home one day — not long after the body had disappeared from the upstairs bathroom and all the cameras he'd ripped from their wiring between there and the garage had been put back in place in their absence with a friendly maintenance note left behind that all fixtures in need of repair had been seen to, along with a bill for the expenses — to find Natasha sitting on the bed, writing a note in Sharpie. He'd leaned against the door frame and watched her hold it up to the cameras and make a deal: Steve wouldn't break any more cameras, if they give them the privacy of their bedrooms. As there had only been the three of them at the time (despite the insistence in his head that the house has always been filled by his teammates, just as he remembers of the last few years before Wayward Pines), that had meant the master bedroom downstairs, and Bucky's upstairs.
It had actually worked, though Steve wouldn't have trusted the word of whoever's behind the cameras himself if it weren't for Natasha's daily inspections, and so far the deal's held.
But it's not — can't be — a luxury only afforded to them, for their own sakes. He's told others here and there, and he knows his friends have, too. It's not enough, but nor does he have a way to get people over without arousing suspicion. But then there's the Nintendo system. A little unorthodox, as far as his own methods go, but he'll work with anything he has.
He doesn't put it down anywhere in writing, letting news of the party travel by word of mouth and hoping that's enough to keep it out of the wrong ears. At least for now. There's a chance — a good chance — that it will eventually get the Sheriff's attention, but by then it will have had the effect it's supposed to and given the people here the chance to speak to each other truthfully. And if that comes down on anyone, it's gonna be the people prepared to deal with it.
The day of the ninth is a rainy one, a good day to stay inside and play games with friends. It also provides a good excuse to use the master bedroom just off the end of the foyer as a temporary coat room. Straight ahead in the living room, Mario Kart is all ready to go, and in the kitchen next to that, snack food and drinks are available.
((ooc: THIS IS A MINGLE POST. While I will be tagging around with Steve a bit, this is mostly to give people a chance to chat with each other without the cameras watching. Per Natasha's deal with the powers that be, the cameras in the master bedroom and Bucky's room upstairs have been removed. Natasha will be greeting people at the door and taking them on a "tour" (i.e., to the master bedroom to explain the camera situation, why the party's really happening, and that they are not to discuss the lack of cameras while elsewhere in the house). Feel free to wander in there any time for a chat, or simply enjoy some Mario Kart and refreshments! Commenting around is encouraged, and please note in your top-levels whether they're open or closed. If you have any questions for me I can be found on plurk (
jeeps) or discord (jeeps#9644).))

[ Follow the concept Wanda. But it doesn't occur to him that maybe she just doesn't know what the hell Mario Kart is. Or the reasoning behind any of it. She'd probably do better playing a round than watching as things just happened. But then again it's not a real complicated game. ]
Hah. Hah. Hah. [ He doesn't need to look at her face to see the smile and know she's messing with him. She's Wanda. She always is. ] Pick up a controller.

Fucked by shells? What an unfortunate life you lead, Clint.]I did not know "shell" could be a verb. Perhaps I should practice my English more.
[ It's spoken with sheer sarcasm, sensed easily with the tone, one that Clint should be incredibly familiar with. It certainly is the way they speak to each other, after all. That's how Wanda remembers it, anyway.
She laughs when he makes the suggestion, her eyes glancing down at the extra controller near his feet. ] Why? Do you want to shell me?
no subject
She is at a disadvantage. But he's willing to teach. Sometimes with video games you got words that you wouldn't normally use one way. He knows she'll pick it up. She's faster than she lets people assume. Which is why she's giving him shit about shell being a verb. ]
If you don't stop talking to me like that Steve's gonna give you a firm talking to.
