Challenge: 2008 Elections

[liliaeth]

I've been thinking about this for the past week and since Obama did win the elections, I thought I might as well make a challenge to all the fic writers and artists on the com.

Since Cap once mentioned in a conversation with Spidey, that one of his greatest regrets from being frozen, was that he missed Jackie Robinson. I can't help but think of what his reaction would be to finding out about Barack Obama being voted president of the United States.

So the challenge is to write Cap's reaction to finding out about this, whether he returns before or after the inauguration and how Tony either tells him this, or shares the moment where he finds out about it.

Anyone willing to pick up the challenge?

Of course, right after I read the hyperlinktext, my immediate thought was: "...and now he died a mere year before Obama was elected".

I think it's a wholly different universe where Cap is though, where the President is likely more Thatcher than Bush.

*imagines ghosty!Steve being around White House the night Obama won*

Yeah that was kinda the joke ellyr_in_ink and I were making.
She threatened to write the fic consisting of the words "Steve is dead" and I was egging her on.

Granted this is funnier after as much hard cider as I'd had last night. *L*
Which is why it is good to have the computer off while drunk.
