who: Peggy 'a crumpet is hardly a muffin' carter + YOU, yes you.
what: catch-all for new and old CR
when: Throughout August
where: all over town.
warnings: none for now
[ three months ago or so have passed since her arrival to the city. during those three months, she had opted to stay in the communal housing for the sake of people watching, of possible intel to collect, of trying to settle in as most people had.
after three months, the need for privacy, for her own space had risen to the point that she went in search of a flat. with the money from the guard and the police force, it was easy enough to make ends meet.
so one sunny morning in August finds Peggy Carter packing her things into boxes and starting to move them from the communal housing to the little flat she found downtown. it's a rather tiring journey, carrying three boxes or so on the GroundTram and then, on foot.
-- and in heels, too! a pair of slacks, a pale blue blouse whose sleeves are rolled up and high heels, of all things. at some point you might hear a THUD outside your room. she had went and dropped a lamp, trying to carry one box too many down the corridors. it'll be followed by a rather annoyed: ]
bloody hell.
[ Peggy's apartment is just by a rather sweet coffee house. if you happen to sit there you might notice her coming and going, carrying boxes with her as she goes.
they'll pile out at the entrance to the apartment house. if you happen to linger by, she'll come out, pick up a box and simply call out: ]
Would you care to pick one up? There aren't many left.
[ she forgot 'please'. be a dear anyway? ]
[ she can't for the life of her understand how people exercise with headphones.
it might be paranoid but peggy never appreciated eliminating any of her senses, not even in the rather safe environment of the gym.
you might find her on the treadmill, muttering for the love of god while trying to understand the different settings or by the punching bag. demure she's not, her punches and kicks are quick and vicious. she's not very graceful but she's efficient and precise. watch her long enough and you might understand a simple truth, peggy carter doesn't kick ass gracefully but she does indeed kick ass. ]
[ she may spend most of her day at the riverview police office or with the guard, but evenings find Peggy walking back to her apartment, not a hair out of place. she'll always stop to get herself some light dinner at one of the restaurants or bars.
don't be surprised if a woman, looking as if she stepped out of a vintage photograph turns to you and ask, what do you reckon a california roll is? or bubble tea? are they mixing the stuff with soda these days? ]

[ the chilly mornings and evenings, the warm afternoons. the city is washed with sun these days. it's not a terrible change, but it's just a bit too warm for her liking. Englishwoman, through and through. ]
And now you live here. This is quite the change. How do you find it here?
no subject
[He can understand that though. Even just a couple months in, he misses England, it's weather, his work.]
Honestly? I find it odd, there's a great deal to adjust to. Electricity is so common and phones operate at the lightest touch.
no subject
[ at least during summer. peggy has never minded new york's version of winter and fall. ]
They are rather confusing, their version of telephones. It's not really a telephone, is it? seeing it's got a camera and an entire database for games and such nonsense.
no subject
[He knows he'd feel the change. And he's actually glad they'd returned the England right after the ship had sunk.]
That they can fit a phone and a camera in one device is an amazing feat. It's certainly nothing we could even hope to achieve. Not for a long time. [It makes him wish he could take some back to England and have them looked over. And he knows the Queen would be delighted by them.]
