i could erase her memories after we're done

[counterstep]

what about if other people see?

[meforsaken]

i'm not an amateur. i wouldn't do it where anyone could see.

[counterstep]

( damnit— )

what do I owe you if I ask you to do this?

[meforsaken]

tell me why this woman is deserving of such a fate.

[counterstep]

she regularly preys on people who have nowhere else to turn and uses them to her advantage, at the cost of the lives and potential that those people actually wield

she feels no remorse because she's managed to reach a privileged position and thinks she's already paid her dues as she continues walking on the backs of others

[meforsaken]

and you can't simply kill her because...?

[counterstep]

very public figure with a lot of security

[meforsaken]

didn't you kill jfk

[counterstep]

yes but that's cause he wanted to do a parade so

and she's never gonna be in one

[meforsaken]

i find it hard to believe you can't think of a way to get her alone

i bet i could. could i claim the winter soldier title then?

[counterstep]

please don't
people only associate that title with me

and I'm literally a public figure right now
I would get investigated to hell and back if anything suspicious happened when I was alone with her

[meforsaken]

boo!
superheroes really ought to go back to having secret identities!

[counterstep]

hey technically I had one
Zemo's just an asshole who decided to blab to the whole world about my real name and who I was to Captain America to make a huge stink
which worked, so I've just been dealing with the fallout of that since

even getting elected into this position wasn't that easy because of the Winter Soldier stuff

[meforsaken]

i would say why not make a new one, but you've made that rather difficult for yourself now

[counterstep]

I think people will make connections to any new identity as long as I've got this metal arm though
it's pretty distinct

[meforsaken]

well in your hypothetical new secret identity you could replace it with a regular prosthetic

[counterstep]

I'm not sure that I can just swap to that and be like "hey guys forget about that cool badass arm I used to have! it's just regular now"

[meforsaken]

there would be no guys for you to say this to. you would be abandoning everything to form a new civilian identity and lifestyle

again this is all hypothetical, i merely wish to prove that it is possible

[counterstep]

you mean that I should retired completely?



does what I do mean that little, in everything?

[meforsaken]

no i'm just twirling around the ideas of secret identities in my head

it would be so easy for me, after all

[counterstep]

I see

yeah I know
I envy that
honestly

[meforsaken]

i could cast a spell on your appearance, i suppose

[counterstep]

it wouldn't quite be the same

thank you for considering me, at least
I really do appreciate that

[meforsaken]

you shouldn't thank me for something i haven't done
i might have turned you into an eel
