[Were they going to strip his mind of memories or something? That sounded awful, but also not something she would put past some governments doing - including the ones she worked for. She loved her work, but she held no illusions about the darkness and depravity that some governments were capable of doing, all in the name of the greater good.]
Did you have a choice at all, or was it made for you, regardless of what you might have wanted?
[She'd always had a choice herself, for the most part. She could have walked away any time she wanted - after Steve's death, after proving Howard Stark's innocence - but she hadn't wanted to. For her, the intelligence game was her choice.]
It's hard to say, to be honest. There's clearly some issue with the pods and their timers, given how we weren't even told what year we were in. The last thing I remember is it being 1947 - clearly for you, it's a different time, the same for the others. I'm sure the pods will open again, but the when is the difficult part. After all, we found skeletons, which means that it was a great deal of time before ours opened. Not a comforting thought, I know. It's possible that we can force them open, but I'm not certain it'd be healthy for whomever is inside them. We'd need to induce the pods into opening on their own, rather like a birth, but I haven't the sort of knowledge that could do such a thing. ...But you did say that Elizabeth was an engineer. Perhaps she might be able to finagle up a solution.
