Who: Bucky & You!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Heron
When: 11/2

[ Hello, fleet! Today you get a message from someone who's been more than a little absent the past month. Some people may be more aware of it than others, but he's finally crawling out of the woodwork.

Waking up has been more than a little disorienting, because he didn't recall falling asleep, or when. It makes him uneasy, a solid weight sitting in his gut. The last time he couldn't remember things, it wasn't so great for the fleet. ]

What year is it?

Not sure how long I was out..Is everyone okay?

You might need to check that eyesight of yours. Could be needing glasses.

[ old men sassing one another, it's a thing. ]

My eyesight's top-notch, pal.

Sure about that? I mean if it's not, it might explain the hair.


[ behold, two men nearing 100 who act like 6 year olds. ]

[ Reluctantly, ] It is getting a little long.

[ He definitely doesn't want to cut it shorter again just yet. ]

[uprightness]

You like it this way?

[ despite the earlier jibe, there's no true judgement here. if anything, he seems genuinely interested even in these little details. ]

I cut it short once before. When Jim was here. Took forever to grow back. I like this a little better.

[ He shrugs. ] I may change my mind, but for now, I want to keep it.

[uprightness]

Yeah.

[ there's a moment when it's all still a-ok but then steve reaches out and ruffles that hair with a chuckle. ]

Seems like a good idea.

[ He huffs, pushing at Steve's shoulder. ] You're such a punk.
