31 Plays in 31 Days, #28 - “Veterans”

Another instance drafting for prose dialogue as a scene. This is another conversation that could eventually occur in the next installment of my Forever Captain Marvel fan fiction series. It would follow #21 - Lost Cast and #22 - Recon Mom, though coming after Steve and Rishun take on the strike team, when they have a chance to talk afterward.

Rishun is supposed to be a Nisei, a first-generation Japanese-American, and I wanted to capture something of the conflict that many faced in wanting to serve against the fascism, but being betrayed at home by the American government with internment. I’m not sure I quite achieved it, but at least the idea is in this first draft version.
