One moment Jane is sitting at the kitchen table sipping her coffee and leafing through her notebook, and the next she's standing in the middle of a forest clearing. Instead of her flannel pajamas she is clad in a simple white dress and her feet are bare. Her notebook, the summary of her life's work, is nowhere to be seen. At her feet, though, is a notebook-looking thing with her name on the front. She picks it up and opens it, then sits down where she is to read.
Later, still in the woods but feeling more acclimated to where she is and the new wings on her back, she decides to give the communications function a try. She writes a short message that reads
"Hello, my name is Jane Foster, and I've just arrived. I am in the forest and I can't tell which direction to go to get out. Could someone help me out? Thanks!"

Written/Action/Video
Date: 2014-04-16 05:02 pm (UTC)Jane scanned over the buttons once again and found the one she wanted. She pressed it and a small screen showed her face, so she could see what the camera was seeing.
"Is that better? Can you see me now?" She felt like a monkey trying to work a typewriter.

Date: 2014-04-17 03:26 am (UTC)Yes, I can see you now. Do you hear anything nearby? Running water?
Video
Date: 2014-04-17 07:55 pm (UTC)Oh my god, Captain America? I can't believe it's you! Um, hold on, let me listen for a second.
Now that you mention it, I do hear a stream maybe. Should I go in that direction?
Video
Date: 2014-04-18 02:22 am (UTC)Actually, it isn't him. Not really. I'll explain further when your situation is under control.
First, head to the stream. Depending on your location I can tell you which way to follow it.
Re: Video
Date: 2014-04-20 02:17 am (UTC)[Jane walked carefully, being sure to pan the journal around so that Captain could see where she was and where she was going. Though he claimed he wasn't him, which could mean anything. Jane decided she had no choice but to trust him, whoever he was. She walked carefully, her bare feet sensitive to every fallen pine cone and rock. The Captain-appearing person on the other end might occasionally hear an 'ow' or 'dammit' muttered under Jane's breath.]
I see it now. Which way should I go?
Re: Video
Date: 2014-04-21 04:46 am (UTC)Grabbing a jacket and a pair of shoes, "Steve" headed out the door at a brisk jog which was closer to a full run for most people.]
Hold still. I can be there in ten.
Video/Action
Date: 2014-04-21 04:07 pm (UTC)[Jane did as he said and stayed put. She was incredibly relieved that someone was on the way. The dress she was wearing provided little warmth and her feet were cold and already quite dirty. The scenery was beautiful, however, and she tried to focus on that while she waited.]
Action
Date: 2014-04-23 03:59 am (UTC)It's nice to be able to jog up without being out of breath though.]
I brought you something. Thought it might be cold out.
[The jacket and shoes are held out.]
I do hope they fit.
Re: Action
Date: 2014-04-23 11:20 pm (UTC)You read my mind! I thought that serum just made you super strong. Are you sure you're not psychic too?
[The shoes were a little big, but they were close enough to her size that she didn't care. Her toes immediately started to warm up. She tucked her journal under her arm and looked up at Steve with a smile.]
Thank you so much.
Re: Action
Date: 2014-04-24 12:18 am (UTC)It really isn't anything. You're not hurt anywhere else, are you?
no subject
Date: 2014-04-28 02:07 am (UTC)[Jane looked up at Steve, who like Thor was significantly taller than her. He looked just like he had on television, only without the uniform. Very all-American.]
So this notebook thing said I could find clothes in the village. Do you mind going there with me?
no subject
Date: 2014-04-28 08:49 am (UTC)I don't mind accompanying you at all. Do you-- [This is so weird to her.] Would it be better if I carried you there? I'm sure your feet are aching from walking without shoes, even with the loans.
Action
Date: 2014-04-28 07:48 pm (UTC)Do you know me?
[As for being carried, well, it was a good idea. The thought of it made Jane a little uncomfortable, if she were to be honest with herself, but curiosity won her over. First she'd flown with Thor, now she was going to be carried by Captain America.]
I think I'd like to be carried, thanks. At least until we get into the village and the ground is more even.
Action
Date: 2014-04-30 07:27 am (UTC)Arms around my neck, if you would. And I knew you - you've been here once before, not that it matters since it's apparent that you don't remember. Normally I also don't look like this, as I said before. Hopefully I'll be able to greet you properly some day.
Re: Action
Date: 2014-04-30 09:45 pm (UTC)No, I don't remember. The last thing I remember before waking up here was being in my flat in London, waiting on Thor to come back from Asgard.
And what do you normally look like? You don't appear to have anything wrong with you.
Action
Date: 2014-05-02 05:39 am (UTC)You'll likely see Thor soon enough. He's here somewhere.
As for me? You wouldn't recognize me, but normally I'm not in Captain America's body. This is a temporary issue caused by being here.
[There was an advantage to the strength and speed though, that was nice. Peggy let that information sink in a bit before continuing.]
My name is Peggy Carter.
Action
Date: 2014-05-05 04:06 pm (UTC)So are you stuck this way forever? That has to be really weird.
Action
Date: 2014-05-07 02:31 am (UTC)I hope not. I'm certain Steve would like his body back eventually.
And yes, it is weird, but I'm trying not to think about it.
Action
Date: 2014-05-07 09:06 pm (UTC)[Jane wasn't sure she wouldn't slip up and call her Steve, but she would try.]
How long has this been going on?
Action
Date: 2014-05-08 05:43 am (UTC)Peggy, I suppose, unless someone who doesn't know is around. He and I aren't advertising what has happened to us since it only just began today.
[And BOY IS IT AWKWARD.]
Action
Date: 2014-05-09 07:53 pm (UTC)[Jane has all sorts of questions about what it's like to be a man instead of a woman, but they all feel inappropriate to ask of someone she just met. She's damn curious though.]
So... what's it like? I mean, is it easier than being a woman?
Action
Date: 2014-05-10 11:31 am (UTC)[She can understand the curiosity, but they're approaching the village now and it isn't exactly something she wants to discuss. Peggy jogs through the town until they make it to a shop, when she pauses in front of it.]
It isn't much here, but everything is free at least.
Action
Date: 2014-05-11 08:36 pm (UTC)[She eases herself out of PeggySteve's arms and back down to the ground.]
I'll wash these clothes and get them back to you, I promise.
Action
Date: 2014-05-12 03:29 am (UTC)Perhaps you'll be able to actually meet Steve, seeing how you seemed rather taken by the possibility.
Action
Date: 2014-05-12 04:59 pm (UTC)[Jane stands awkwardly for a moment, a crooked grin on her face. The prospect of Peggy leaving her on her own is one that Jane finds she doesn't want to think about.]
Do you mind hanging around? Maybe you could tell me more about this place while I look for clothes?
