out of one prison & into another

Who: Bucky & You
Broadcast: ?????
Action: From the Marsiva
When: 7/28

[Consciousness came slowly, like climbing out of a fog. Before he opened his eyes, he knew something was amiss; the familiar noises that accompanied him waking up were absent. There should be some sort of noise, be it the hiss of the cryostasis chamber, or the bumbling gait of the scientists that aided in mission preparations.

Nothing.

Blearily opening his eyes, he was startled if not perplexed. This wasn't right. His mission, he--
Head whipping around, his vision darted rapidly for the windows and all points of entry. No sign of anyone else around. Captain America- that had been his mission, but this was...impossible.

Getting off the cot, the joints of his bionic arm creaked as he pushed himself to stand. The large window caught his eye, the view of the stars impressive. They invoke some sort of feeling in him, though he's not sure exactly what.

The lack of any sort of life around is concerning, though not unwanted. Being alone is something of a treat, and the gentle hum of the station itself helped quell the noise in his brain for now. It also helps that he's got a basic comprehension of where he is, though it doesn't particularly calm him.

Despite the freedom to move about, he can't shake the feeling of being snared, like there is something he is missing just out of reach. While there is no one in the immediate area, they could be close, and he opens his mouth to speak.]

..Hello?

[The single word is slightly hoarse, scratching at his throat from disuse, but perhaps not unheard.]

Winter?

[Was that really a name? Perhaps a call sign-

And that's when Wanda puts it together. She knows from reading Sgt. Barne's mind back on the Nunilis ship... The Winter Solider. The name of a ghost. An assassin. This was dangerous, talking to this man. Her mind was riddled with too many questions, too much confusion.]


Winter... where are you from?
notmutantbutmiracle: (Muted response)

[personal profile] notmutantbutmiracle 2015-08-04 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Earth then.

[Though that much was obvious. Wanda knew that before she even asked the question, but perhaps she had been too optimistic as to how much "Winter" would tell her.]

This may sound like an odd question, but do you know the date?
notmutantbutmiracle: (You've gotta be joking...)

[Wanda's mouth twitches, a slightly frustrated smirk flashes before her expression returns to a more controlled state.]

What about the year?
notmutantbutmiracle: (Not funny)

[Her brief expression of frustration becomes much more apparent now. She's unsure if he's deliberately avoiding a straight answer, or if he genuinely is unsure. It was hard to blame him; after all, she could still remember how disorientating it had been when she first arrived. She doubts her next question will get a straight answer as well, but...]

Do you remember anything about where you were before you found yourself here?

[Well, he certainly talked like someone deserving of the name the "Winter Soldier." And his mentioning of a "mission," it gave Wanda a slight chill. If he is someone from back home or from a different version of home... he doesn't seem to recognize Wanda. Though, that was practically routine now. Only Vision had recognized her. Well, Vision and The Commander.]

Can you tell me... does the name Ultron mean anything to you?
notmutantbutmiracle: (You've gotta be joking...)

[personal profile] notmutantbutmiracle 2015-08-04 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess not.

[Wanda gives a half-smirk, a sign of relief perhaps? Still, while this Winter Soldier may not be from the same Earth or timeline or whatever as her, he could still be from the same one as the Agent Romanov here. In which case, would she be in danger?]

I am sorry for all the questions. I cannot imagine it is helping with your current confusion.
notmutantbutmiracle: (Not funny)

[personal profile] notmutantbutmiracle 2015-08-05 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I imagine you must have some questions of your own?

[Fair was fair, and Wanda didn't seem to be getting much out of him by being the one asking the questions.]
notmutantbutmiracle: (You want to know what it felt like?)

It's no problem at all.

[personal profile] notmutantbutmiracle 2015-08-10 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wanda cocks an eyebrow, a bit in surprise and also in skepticism. It was possible that other fleet members had already offered to help the newcomer. After all, there were several who reached out to her on her arrival.]

I see. Well Winter, I will be sure to keep an eye out for you.

[A brief pause to make sure the real intent of her message gets across before she continues with a small, cold smile.]

In case you should think of any questions.
