Broadcast: Fleetwide audio.
Action: On the planet.
When: When the Fleet makes planetfall.

[ Briskly, ]

I am leading a hunting party. One companion is ideal; I will take no more than three. Bring your own weapons and dress for the cold. We depart at sunrise, from the lodge at the foot of the mountains, and there will be trips every other day beginning tomorrow.

[ Beat. ]

If you wish to come and learn, you are welcome, but if you cannot keep up, you will be left behind.

[ ooc: action prompts in comments. let me know if you'd like a custom starter. ]
reconstitution: (Fuck this)

[ He doesn't take Nyssa for someone easily intimidated, her words only solidifying that notion. It doesn't escape his notice that she's armed with a bow and arrow, internally wondering how long that will go on before things go wrong.

A hunter is only as good as their weapon, after all. He falls into step behind her, vigilance high as ever. Winter's not sure why she thinks she cacan trust him at her back, but he won't do anything to disprove her thought.

At the very least, she's not at his back. ]


If you can get by with that thing, we will be fine.

[ They'll be fine, anyway. ]

Anyone with a weapon can claim skill. [ A pause. ]

Survivors are not allowed when I am involved.

[ If he were an angrier person, he may try to prove her wrong. For both their sake, he isn't. ]

...Then it's good to meet another ghost.

[ He has no doubt that they'll have time- that's all anyone in the fleet will ever have. ]

[ Some distant part of him swells with pride. It's good to be someone's shadow, again.

The James Barnes that may still be buried somewhere deep down screams that he's not following the wrong person, but the feeling is a start.

The next step can come later. ]


I use whatever is put at my disposal-- firearms, mostly. Knives and hand-to-hand when a target is in close proximity.

I don't need weapons to be a threat, they make it quick.

None of those were ever practical for my missions.

[ That's not to say that he wouldn't like the experience with them, though. Maybe at some point. ]

So there are more of you?

[ He follows behind her, just as quietly, taking in the scenery. This is not the fresh air he asked for, but he'll take it.

It's too damn cold, but this is far more tolerable than the lack of warmth on the Heron. Here, there's at least a reason for it. ]


There is only one more that I can remember that got some of the same training. There could be more.

I'm the one they pull out when someone is in the way. If there were more like me, it wouldn't be good.

[ Best at talking club, right here. The mountains make more sound than they do. ]

A lot of people would die.
reconstitution: (fuck that thing in particular)

[personal profile] reconstitution 2015-12-12 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think any of them deserved to die.

[ There's no real way of knowing, but with HYDRA, there's not much room for anything else. ]

It was never my call.

[personal profile] reconstitution 2015-12-12 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
For a long time, yes.

[ It is what it is, Nyssa. ]

It's fine for now.

[ If Steve's presence is anything to go by, a least. At least he doesn't go through with the mission.. ]

I think things will be okay if I have to go back.

They'd better hope I don't catch them. There are worse things I could do than kill them.

[ Definitely a promise as opposed to a threat. ]
reconstitution: (The fuck was that?)

[personal profile] reconstitution 2015-12-13 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
We'll see what happens. First, this.

[ He nods his head toward the mountain. They had bigger beasts to slaughter. ]

[personal profile] reconstitution 2015-12-13 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
No, this is new to me.

[ Not exactly new at staking out a new location, though. It's reminiscent of the Alps, wind whipping about, the snow-covered mountain. ]

You?
