"We'll figure out a way to get you home," he promises quietly. "Just might be a while. But I might have to take you up on a flight."
That might mean having to let the guy carry him bridal style or piggyback or something, Steve thinks, which means it ain't happening where anyone can observe, but there are some offers you just don't turn down on account of protecting your masculine persona.
"I hear you," is all he says in response to the observation about his parents. Steve certainly feels that way about his, even though he never met his father.
He calls out on the radio, looking to hear where the rest of the team is, and then starts up the bike. "The miles northwest of here. Some debris landed on a nursing home roof. They're evacuating now, no injuries yet, but if we can move the debris instead that'd save everyone a lot of trouble."
Elderly people on oxygen don't travel all that well. And that's an emergency, so he's not going to pause for any more chit-chat.
