[This is the first time that Steve is making a video like this to everyone, but he has used this feature when talking to others on this network at least. So, he doesn't look too awkward as he talks into it.]

Know that this is a bit late, but wanted to thank the people who gave me these items for Christmas. [He shows a rather famous red, white and blue circular shield and a Captain America costume that was used during the USO tours.]

It's real thoughtful of you. [He smiles a little, completely honest in his words.] However, the outfit is a bit too uh- big for me. Couldn't get it on without drowning in it, to be honest. So I'm wondering if anyone wants it, don't have much of a use for it myself and I wouldn't want it to go to waste.

[He looks down at the shield for a moment, feeling somewhat attached to it despite himself.] I'm keepin' the shield though, never know when something like this could come in handy...

[ooc: Feel free to fourth wall him or point out that those are Captain America stuff. Tony has already spilled the beans about it.]

Pretty sure about that? [says the guy who knows your future and also is an asshole]

Being responsible is one trait that I have. [Even if he doesn't have a lot of other traits. Steve prides himself in that at least.]

[Tony could argue that flying a plane into a glacier without considering how the survivor's guilt of people he left behind might screw up the childhoods of certain geniuses was really the opposite of responsible. But a) he may be slightly bitter and b) this Rogers doesn't even remember doing that, and what's the point of bitching at someone for something they haven't done yet?]

Hey, whatever helps you sleep at night, kiddo.

Not a kid. [Steve probably takes the statement a lot more harshly than Tony intended. He's been teased a lot for looking like one, so a bit sensitive about the topic.] And I am responsible.

Exactly what a kid would say, but oh well.

And just what do you do that's responsible, huh?

[He chooses not to respond to that first remark.]

I try and do my part like everyone else. [Maybe talking more about the war back home than being here in this city. Also, not mentioning that some part of him wants to prove that he can do it.]
