"I hate to say 'I told you so', but..."

[agentnamed]

"I told you I had excellent taste!" Peggy laughed, happy Nessa liked what she'd chosen.

"You look beautiful, Darling. Now tell me, what do you like about this dress? I'll try to find something similar for you to try on."

@agentnamed

Nessa was excited! She hadn't really spent much time with her Auntie Peggy unless she was with Jay or her Uncle Cap.

She used to go out with Natasha a lot and was excited to finally hang out with someone besides a guy.

" So what exactly is a girls day?" she asked her Aunt.

[agentnamed]

“ i thought you were dead. “ @redheadarcher

"So I've been told... repeatedly." Peggy quipped, since coming to the future and reuniting with Steve she'd spent a lot more time around his team.

Which was an odd experience within itself since one of his teammates was Howard's son.

The girl, Scarlett. Peggy recalled her name now, was the daughter of two of Steve's teammates.

Natasha, who Scarlett clearly took after in looks, and the archer, Barton.

"I assure you though, I am very much alive."

[agentnamed]

"hey got a minute or a cigerate?" @89p13-racoon

Sometimes it still blew Peggy's mind that she was in the future and that beings like Nebula and Rocket existed. But at the end of the day Rocket wasn't so different than some of the soldiers she worked with during the war, particularly the American ones.

"Cigarette? No, filthy habit. But a minute I do have, what's on your mind?"

[agentnamed]

“What’re three things that struck you as different about the future?” Angie, also flung through time @thisvastmultiverse

"Well, first of all, the television screens in Times Square was a shock. Secondly, the fashion, is certainly different, but I think the biggest shock was seeing super heroes in real life, it's like something out of a comic book."

[agentnamed]

"I didn't know there was a name for it," Dottie had never said. She worked for Leviathan, but knowing there was an actual name for what Dottie and Natasha were was interesting.

"Of course you're more than that, I know you're a friend of Steve’s, so whatever you feel comfortable sharing about yourself beyond that is welcome."

"Company would be nice, Steve gave me a brief run down, but I'd like to get to know his knew friends." Peggy said taking a sip of her drink.

"So tell me about yourself, Natasha. You know about me, it's only fair."

[agentnamed]

“Will this work?” Sharon; @thisvastmultiverse

"Possibly," Peggy said inspecting the outfit that her supposed niece had handed her, it wouldn't do for Peggy to walk around in her clothes from the 1940s, they weren't really in style anymore.

"Yes, this should fit me, thank you, Sharon."

[agentnamed]

“Any day. I’m the size of a planet!” Pick any mama; @thisvastmultiverse

"Congratulations, Dr. Foster." Since coming through time to be with Steve, she had tried to make nice with Steve's team, and by extension their significant others.

It was a little odd though, seeing a woman proudly show off her bump, not that Peggy wouldn't have done the same in private, but in public it was something to be concealed until it couldn't be anymore. Especially if a woman was working. Or it had been, but times were clearly different.

"Is this a test?" (Brianna Wayne) @timeguardians

"... Unsure." Peggy said, pulling out the cell phone Steve had given her. No missed texts or calls, but seeing vaguely Iron Man-esque robots attacking the city didn't seem right.

"Follow me, I'm going to make a call."

[agentnamed]

She'd been feeling what she thought was movement for weeks, but Peggy hadn't been exactly sure what she was feeling.

But this was without a doubt, movement.

With Steve's hand on her stomach, Peggy smiled, guiding him to were the baby was currently kicking away.

"I didn't know I'd feel movement this early, I thought we'd have to wait a few more weeks at most. Must be the serum."

"Steve, Darling, come here. The baby's moving." (Steve)

@agentnamed

From the moment Peggy told Steve that she was pregnant, he was ever present. He went to every ultrasound, every doctor's appointment, he was there for every milestone. When she told him the baby was moving, he was at her side immediately, his hand on her swollen stomach.

"Captain America is great, but he's an ideal, a mantle, you are Steve Rogers. And those who love you have always seen you." Peggy reached out and took his hand squeezing it gently.

"Even after the serum, I saw that charming private who jumped on a grenade and figured out how to get that flag off the flag pole when no one else could."

"who's gonna know you, if not me?" (for Steve Rogers)

　It had been so long and so much time had passed. Steve had thought everyone he knew from before was dead, lost in the many decades that had passed since he had last been conscious. It was disorienting to say the least to wake up with that hallow, uncertain, and unfamiliar feeling lingering. A man stolen from time cast in another altogether unable to recognize what the world had morphed into but also able to understand that things hadn't changed that much to his dismay. There was still war, still conflict, and still only him to do what must be done.

"I've gotten used to being seen as Captain America." He had been wrong in his assessments of what was left behind. Peggy, Bucky... they were here against all the odds. And that was what being seen felt like. "It'll be really nice to be seen as Steve again."

[agentnamed]

Peggy could feel the anxiety coming off Jamie in waves, reaching out Peggy played with Jamie's hair in an attempt to soothe her a little.

"Everyone's fine, Sweetheart, just worried about you right now." Jamie was an adult now, but Peggy still wanted to keep her baby girl safe.

"I think maybe you should take some time off and try to relax a little."

@agentnamed continued

Sitting in peace feels FOREIGN these days, not because Jamie desired conflict, she didn't, but her BONES seemed SET in the profound turbulance of warfare. She slinks into the cushion of the sofa and gifts her mother a soft smile. "For once, huh?" That was a change of pace. "So uh...." She starts, one leg nervously tapping against the floor, "how is everyone? Working n any new projects with uncle Howard?"

[agentnamed]

"I'll take that as a compliment," Since coming to the future, Peggy had tried to get to know people who ran in the same circles as Steve enhanced individuals were a familiar lot. And there were more of them now than there had been during the war.

The masked hero called Spiderman was nice enough, and he had complimented her left hook in a way.

"Do you want to restrain the man I just incapacitated, or should I?"

@agentnamed. PEGGY.

❝ i'll be honest... i'm impressed. ❞

[agentnamed]

Her mind had not quite grasped that this wasn't a beautiful dream, that she was really here with Steve holding her close. Her head resting on his chest, Peggy only looked up when he apologized for the lateness of their dance lesson.

"Better late than never, Darling." Peggy smiled before stealing a kiss.

"I love you, Steve."

(dance) — to pull my muse into a slow dance

This was how he had been meant to come back, what he had wanted to do, what they had planned for even if they'd thought it all that unlikely that it was truly going to happen when it had been planned for. But things seldom went the way one expected in life, as Steve had learned

The first thing he never could have accounted for was that he would actually wake up ever again. The second was that it would be almost 70 years later when he did. And the third? Well, the third was holding him in her arms as the two slowly swayed, gentle music fit for a proper slow dance playing for them on a phone (something neither of them could have fathomed being possible until it had actually been explained to them not too long after starting to adjust to the modern world). After all, who could have predicted something mysterious would happen to Margaret Carter after she essentially founded SHIELD that would cause her to wind up exactly where, or rather, exactly when Steve was?

"...sorry this wound up being a little late."

An understatement if ever one existed.

[agentnamed]

Whenever he went out on missions, Peggy's anxiety spiked. She understood it was his job and would never ask him to stop for her, but the idea of losing him again still terrified her.

Kissing him sweetly, Peggy held him close for a moment.

"I love you, Steve. Be careful, please."

@agentnamed asked: "Come back to me, my Darling." (For Steve)

Steve adjusts his uniform and steps on the lip of his shield, flipping it into his hands. He attaches it to his back, turning to face Peggy. "I'll come back to you, I promise."
