Who: Steve Rogers & anyone at the Lux
What: Steve going about his shift like nothing is wrong.
When: backdated to Tuesday, March 06
Where: the Lux
Rating: G-PG? It's Steve.

[There's a dull throbbing that keeps insisting on being noticed between his eyes. Steve pays it no mind, picks up a plate, and heads back to the kitchen. That area seems too warm for comfort. Kitchens are supposed to be warm but, not that warm and then suddenly cold. Again Steve pays it no mind at all. He forces himself to move through the area without shivering.

He will keep this going throughout his shift without complaint. Steve knows what is going on. It's impossible to miss for someone who ill as often as he was at home. He's sick again. The fact that it had somehow eluded him here for this long only made him more determined to power through it. Unfortunately for Steve, will power can't quite cover up a red face and glossy eyes. Someone was going to call him on it eventually.]

[Max has been working the entire shift with him behind the bar, and she's been picking up on things here and there. When he swings back around to the bar again, she picks up on the flush of his cheeks]

You feelin' okay?

[valuedstrength]

[Steve nods. He's not sure how much he can get away with when it came to Max but, he sure would try.]

I'm fine. How are you? Do you need anything?

[whatialways_do]

[shakes her head]

I'm good for now. Why don't you sit for a bit -- I'll get you something to drink.

[valuedstrength]

[Looking around. When he's satisfied everyone looks okay for now he'll nod.]

I am a little thirsty.

[whatialways_do]

What can I get ya?

[valuedstrength]

Just some water.

[whatialways_do]

[nods and goes to pour him a glass, before setting it down in front of him.]

You sure you're okay?

[valuedstrength]

I've had worse. [He starts to sip the water and ends up downing the whole thing.]

Trust me this will pass.

[whatialways_do]

[nods]

Tried taking anything for it?

[valuedstrength]

Not yet. I didn't want to get too drowsy to work.

[whatialways_do]

I think it might be a good idea -- and sleep wouldn't be a bad thing either.

[valuedstrength]

I'll sleep once I finish up here.

[whatialways_do]

[there's a bit of a worried look]

I can handle this if you wanna take off early.

[valuedstrength]

I'll be fine. [He's going for a reassuring smile.]

[whatialways_do]

[nods]

Okay. Just let me know.

[valuedstrength]

I will. [He's downing whatever is left of that water and heading off.] See you later, Max.

Feel better, Steve.
