The Death of Captain America, Tweaked
For Fandom High purposes, here's how it went down. Steve did die on the way to the hospital. On arrival at the hospital, he was promptly whisked out the back way by SHIELD operatives loyal to Nick Fury, his body replaced with a clone (they pop up from time to time). For the sake of my sanity, Wolverine was let in on this somehow, so he could later claim the dead guy did, in fact, smell like Steve.
Steve was quickly revived--he was only clinically dead for a minute or two--and rushed to a SHIELD medical facility. He was in a coma for about six weeks (part of this time, it was an induced coma, to give his body time to rest and heal). Since everyone thought he was dead, Fury spent this time figuring out what the hell to do with him. He finally lit on this island off the coast of Virginia, where there was a high school in need of an art teacher. Steve studied art, and still dabbled in it, so this seemed perfect.
Bucky spent the whole time Steve was unconscious pretty much glued to his side, but once he woke up he refused to be around him, refused to deal with that, so Fury sent him to check this place out. It seemed all right (look, he was here before the school blew up, okay?), so all necessary arrangements were made before Steve had much of a chance to argue.
At the moment, the only people who know Steve is alive are Nick Fury, Bucky Barnes, Wolverine, and a couple of surgeons and nurses.
Steve at Fandom
Note: Steve is not from the same universe as FH's Cassie and Teddy, as I'm pulling him from main Marvel continuity where Civil War went down exactly as it is written on the page. Nor is he from FH's Peter Parker's universe, as that universe's Captain America is kind of a dick. Deadpool...well, Deadpool's Deadpool. The rest of you...heh, hi? Maybe? Wow, there are a lot of us now.
He desperately doesn't want word of his survival getting back to Tony and the others, as that would defeat the purpose of laying low, and if anyone else from Marvelverse shows up, he will smile and pretend like crazy to be from another universe, as beating sense into these people didn't work last time.
The school having blown up is going to make him kind of twitchy, as it was a school blowing up that set off Civil War, and also, um, his player has some issues with schools being destroyed in that mine burned down this one time. But this is Steve, so he'll cope. It's what he does.
Most importantly for the summer, though, Steve is recovering. He was shot four times. He actually died. He's a fast healer, but he's not going to be one hundred percent yet. He walks with a limp thanks to having been shot in the knee, and he'll tire quickly (for him, which means he can still run ordinary people into the ground). He doesn't have his costume or his shield--though Bucky is hard at work in New York attempting to rectify this situation.
Steve Summed Up
Steve Rogers is 6'2", 220 pounds, blond hair, blue eyes. He's handsome, clean-cut, broad-shouldered, tends toward fairly conservative dress. His workout clothes all have 'ARMY' plastered across them. He appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties; exact age is hard to pin down thanks to the time in the ice and the effects of the supersoldier serum. He's fairly self-deprecating and easy-going until you really get him mad, and then he will put you on the ground. He is a master tactician.
He is, to a certain extent, a man out of time, though he's been in the modern world long enough by now that he's pretty much adapted. He is, as previously stated and is probably obvious, deeply patriotic. Above all he believes in the principles this nation was founded on, and according to one bitch-ass reporter, this makes him unAmerican. No, he doesn't know what Myspace is, nor does he follow NASCAR, because he's been a little busy saving the world. And you know what? This one time? He punched Hitler.
Thanks to Operation: Rebirth and the supersoldier serum, Steve is the pinnacle of human ability. He is as fast, strong, agile, and hot as it is possible for a human being to be (note: hotness not side effect of supersoldier serum). He can run a mile in just over a minute, and let's not even go into how much weight he can lift (largely because the stats I have to hand for that are for Ultimate!Cap, and he's kind of different). That is, when he's at peak condition. He is not, currently, at peak condition. He's working on it, though.
...I can't think of anything else right now. Fellow Marvel nerds, tell me if I've missed anything?
Questions? Comments? Pie?

Date: 2007-05-10 12:42 pm (UTC)As a fellow Superfan, this is how the battle of epic proportions goes down. Captain America and Ditka both throw the first punch, the staggering might of their fierce blows destroying Detroit - which was about to get annihilated anyway thanks to Da Bulls... DAAAA BULLS! - the battle wages on for weeks, neither quite able to put the other away due to the sheer magnificence of their respective will-power and determination. As the nation stares in awe, Ditka and Captain America decide to team up, go back in time, and give the Soviet Union a one-two punch they never saw coming, making the world safe for democracy.
Ditka/Cap - one thousand and ninety-two, Communism - negative seventeen.
And then Ditka becomes the new Nomad.

Date: 2007-05-10 02:06 pm (UTC)You're giving them too much of an advantage with that one.
I say blindfold 'em and then only let them use one leg. That might make it a more even game.
Might.

Blind-folded, one leg between them, and asleep. Ditka/Cap - twelve thousand sixteen point eight, Packers - one. They got lucky.

Date: 2007-05-09 09:04 pm (UTC)There have been AUs where Steve and Wanda got together, and it looked like it might go that way when she first joined the Avengers--man out of time, gypsy girl from the backwoods, they fit. But I don't know if they ever actually got it on.

Date: 2007-05-10 12:52 pm (UTC)That said, the current mini-series Ultimate Power shows the makings of a bond between Spidey and Cap (that bond coming from mutual suspicion that Nick Fury is doing something bad), but that's set a while after I broke from canon so it has no impact on me.
The short answer is, no, no fangirling or fanboying at this time.
