Patriotism Yay!: Period 2, Week 1

[screwyoumarvel]

Steve was waiting for his new students in a small clearing this morning. "Good morning!" he said cheerfully. "I'm Steve Rogers, and I'll be your instructor, which you probably knew already. And in this workshop, we will be discussing patriotism and what it means to be a patriot. We'll start off with introductions. Everybody tell me your name, where you're from, and something interesting about you. Then, since I'm going to have a lot of chances to tell you what I think, today I'd like to hear what you think. Tell me what you think patriotism is, and why it's important. We'll start with you," he decreed, picking someone at random.

"My name is Peter Parker, I'm also from New York City, and I can climb walls," Peter said, wondering if Mr Rogers here was going to react to that at all.

Steve did, indeed, react to that. And here he'd assumed it was just a very common name. "Climb walls," he echoed. "Like a spider?"

"Actually, yes, just like a spider," Peter said. That could have been a coincidence or Mr Rogers knew about the Spider-Man thing. Either way, this was definitely not the Steve Rogers Peter was used to. That Rogers would have punched somebody in the throat by now and threatened to have them deported or something.

"Huh," said Steve. "Guess I'm used to you being older." He's just misunderstood!
