[ ... well, she's definitely seen blue people before. Or, rather, a blue alien in a crate, but that had been confidential and most definitely extraterrestrial. She isn't so certain about people living underwater on their own Earth, but then again — maybe they do exist and they hadn't been discovered yet. Before the world's end, anyway. ]

Not to my knowledge. They found Atlantis on your Earth? The lost city?

More like Atlantis found New York.

[ This isn't any kind of secret, so he feels easy talking about it. Even though he trusted Peggy, on account of Steve trusting Peggy, he doesn't like discussing classified intel any more than he can help. ]

Truth be told, I dunno that he knew what he was doin'.

[ Her brows draw into a bewildered frown. ]

Someone who speaks like that rarely does. [ Her lips quirk. ] Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

[godwins]

That's Macbeth. [ He sounds proud of himself for knowing that. And then, more defensively— ]

But Namor ain't such a bad bean once you get to know him. No one hates the Nazis more, that's for sure.

[revlon]

[ She smiles when he recognises the quote, an acknowledgement. ]

Well, I should hope so. They did plunge the rest of us into quite a mess.

[godwins]

Is that supposed to be a fish pun?
