I find my way over to a chair, relying on the amorphous shapes of sound to lead me in the right direction. I nearly miss the seat when I go to sit (I was standing on the wrong side of the arm), but I make a quick recovery, and settle soon enough. Embarrassment gnaws at the base of my neck; I'm better than this. I used to dance across the rooftops of New York City like it was my playground. Maybe I won't ever race through the trees of Tabula Rasa, but I'll do my damnedest to try.
It occurs to me Cap's in a similar position; in all the time we've known each other, I can't remember a time he's been bedridden for so long since they fished him out of the water years ago. It's the sort of thing that would have made the papers.
