"Just tell me I'm not wearing tights."
Another condolence letter.
Sure, it's couched in official terms, one commanding officer reporting to another, but it's a condolence letter all the same.
Rogers's next of kin is listed as James Barnes, who, of course, is also missing, presumed killed in action. After that is his sponsor, Senator Brandt, so he's the one who will receive the letter and have to break the news that America's New Hope is gone.
Philips's voice is as steady as it ever is while he dictates the letter.
"Senator Brandt, I regret to report that Captain Steven G. Rogers went missing behind enemy lines on the third. Aerial reconnaissance has proven unfruitful. As a result, I must declare Captain Rogers killed in action. Period."
Agent Carter pauses in the entrance to the tent, bracing herself as Philips dictates the end of the letter. She brings in the latest report, her expression professional, her demeanor calm. "The last surveillance flight is back. No sign of activity."

As the thought strikes, Bucky goes with his gut impulse. He looks away from them and around at the crowd of soldiers milling about, both those that'd made the trek out of Hell with them and those who'd been there in camp all along, and raises his voice in a hoarse shout.
"Hey! Let's hear it for Captain America!"
The roar of cheers and applause that goes up breaks over them all like a wave, startling the birds from the trees.

He looks at Bucky--What're you trying to do?

What do you think? It's time for everyone to see you the way I do.

It's like the applause in the movie theater when they show his serial.
Only a thousand times better.
Peggy's here. Bucky's here.
A million times better.
