[the video flickers to life in the middle of robbie's living room. his smiling, clean shaven face greets one and all with a very important message.]

Citizens of Cadelle. I mustache you a question...

[in the background an audible groan can be heard, followed by the mutterings of his very unimpressed girlfriend. clearly she's not as big a fan of his terrible jokes as he is.]

It's the first of November. I'd like to invite all of you to grow a mustache with me. And maybe raise some funds for men's health. Doesn't matter if it's a fu manchu or a handlebar, come join me.

Let's see who can a: grow the most epic 'stache and b: raise the most funds and awareness.

Ladies? I'm enlisting you to be the judges of this unofficial competition.

So what do you all say? You in?

Does it count if we've already grown the beard?

[ Steve has been growing his thick beard since he got here and hung up Captain America the mantle. ]

[acuerdo]

Hey. [well aren't you rocking the whole lumberjack chic look, mr. rogers.]

I'm not gonna tell you how to do it. I heard a guy who did a fundraiser and the winner got to pick what color glitter went in his beard so...

[recruited]

That really wouldn't have been fun for the guy getting glitter in his beard.

[ He cringes a little. ]

Glitter stays on you forever. I can't imagine having it in my beard.

[acuerdo]

I can't imagine it was either.

People say ink is forever. I think glitter's worse. Probably a good idea to ban it as option here, huh?

[he pauses for a moment and does his best thinking face, taps his... oh right no mustache there anymore... and frowns for a moment before the ah ha! eureka expression appears.]

Spray on color? All the fun none of the lasting evidence.

[recruited]

I'd have to agree with you there. Glitter makes everything awful. No question.

[ Steve has to think about the spray on color. Probably easy to wash out and deal with at the very least. ]

That would probably be pretty fun.

[ He smiles. ]

I'm Steve by the way.

[acuerdo]

Gives a lot of options for style too. Stripes. Flames. Maybe a strategic logo?

[golly gee, mr. rogers. as if robbie doesn't know who captain america is. it's rather hard to ignore the news.]

Robbie. You're kind of a big deal with a guy I know.

[recruited]

[ Look he's covering bases here. Not a lot of people know Captain America or Steve Rogers. He's stopped assuming they do. Not everyone is like Felicity where they have some knowledge despite not being from his world. ]

Are you trying to hide for an American flag themed beard?

[ He's not dumb. ]

Really? Who?

[acuerdo]

[a lot of people don't spend their time gallivanting with s.h.i.e.l.d. either, so there's that going for robbie.]

Maybe. Personally, I'm more of a flames and skulls kind of guy. But there's nothing wrong with showing a little patriotism.

[a beat and a smile.]

Does the name Phil ring any bells?

[recruited]

Be a pretty intricate pattern just for a beard alone. Might have to grow it out pretty long to make it look good.

[ He grins when he mentions Coulson. ]

Yeah. Coulson. Daisy said he was alive. He still talks about me?

[acuerdo]

That's gonna take longer than a month then. Unless there's some magic trick that I don't know about...


[a shrug. not specifically but he'd definitely seen a few things that suggested that captain america was someone who'd mattered to him in some way.]

We've been a bit too busy to socialize, but I might've seen a thing or two in his office.

[recruited]

With this place you never know what's possible. They could have something to speed the process for you.

[ He wonders partly if the color will wind up itching. But that's for later on down the road. ]

Is it a bobble head? I feel like it'd be a bobble head.

[acuerdo]

Seems a little like cheating if I can make it grow faster than normal.

[at least for the purpose of charitable endeavors anyhow. but guess he'll just have to figure that one out on his own if it's even a thing.]

Yeah. Little plastic thing. How'd you guess?
