(Oh no see if howard knew that he would :c like why hasn't he told him anything?? Why wouldn't he share important people in his life with other important people in his life? Goodness. HE's going to be so disappointed with himself.)

I guess that's a good thing? Treason charges are never a good time. Medals, huh? I never got any of those. I should revolt when I get back. I deserve something, gosh darn.

It was probably too classified. It was classified back then, too. No one, publicly, knew that I was a part of it during the war, for security reasons. Didn't want to make me more of a target then I already was.

(At least he doesn't take it too much to heart right now, since he can't hear the tone of it. it's more reasoning things logically why he may not have. He's trying his best, though, to explain without really explaining properly. Or, if nothing else, to not be as upset about it all as he is.)

The SSR was, by far and large, created to combat the Nazi's science division, HYDRA, because they, even early on, were deviating from the party and becoming more extreme. I'm sure you know about Schmidt and Erskine and Rogers. But there was a lot more experimentation on people that they conducted that was kept quiet. Mostly because the people died. Sometimes horrifically mutilated as a reaction the serum, and why I'm so against attempting to recreate it. I...guess they must have put on version in Barnes, which helped him survive the fall.

We should have looked for him, but we didn't know where he'd fallen, it was snowing, and we didn't think he could have survived.

[ It's okay Howard, disappointing yourself runs in the family. ]

i have a feeling treason wasnt 2 far away but luckily another bad guy showed up & they needed my help again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

u get plenty of awards old man calm your tits

[ he absorbs the rest of that information though, incorporating it with what he does know already and slotting new things into places holes and gaps had previously been. some of this has all since come to light what with his own involvement with shield and the "perks" that involved being close to them. he'd known on a more abstract level that the serum was attempted by several different people hundreds of times, but most of the more definitive or concrete knowledge has always been either lost or classified. well, everyone aside from bruce.

he might have to discuss some of the thoughts out - he's getting most of them, but it's so easy to type one train of thought while thinking through three others without noticing ]

but u looked 4 cap for like 50 years
i mean tech. u looked so long that technically I was looking 4 cap
u never looked 4 bucky? cap mustve known where it was

[ which sounds accusatory, but it's not. just curious - honestly, cap had strategy, a nearly photographic memory, how did no one have an idea where barnes fell?

of course, as soon as he thinks this, he remembers the reasons he came up with before for why someone wouldn't have remembered: it was a two mile stretch, cap was busy otherwise, there was so much left to happen during the mission, more important things to remember (although nine year old Tony thought nothing was more important; 45 year old Tony knew better), train tracks tend to follow a pretty specific route, &c. &c. ]

u never tried to do it urself? recreate the serum?
