Will you be around later? I have something for dinner.

I was thinking we could talk... Catch up, I mean.

I'm glad you're here, Buck.

[woundedwinter]

Yeah, I don't think they'll need me at the docks much longer today.

We got a lot of lost time to catch up on, huh?

Me too, Stevie. Me too.

No matter what size I am, my heart remains the same.

Yours.

[woundedwinter]

You are such a sap.




I love you too.

[noblecaptain]

Oh yeah, punk. Just what are you a fan of then? I'd be real curious to hear that one. Gimme your reasons. ;)




[ Do you realize Bucky doesn't have a tag? I had to go searching... :P]

[woundedwinter]

ping

[Was that someone bouncing a silver off your ass, Rogers?


Yes. Yes it was.]

Catch me and I'll tell you.
Preferably back at the cabin so I can do it naked.

Bucky,

Tests have shown that you’re the parent of the fetus in pod number 1. The other parent is David Haller.

Now that the professional notification is over, if you need anything at all, even just lessons in changing a nappie, Harry, Sasha, and I will help wherever we can.

[woundedwinter]

.. How is that even possible?

How can I be a parent? [Winter Soldier brain approaching lockup.]

There is a large box, 100cm by 65cm, left beside the pod. It's decorated with cute little animals. Inside he will find:

A play blanket
2 receiving blankets
A baby bathrobe
A set of three onesies.
A set of three baby socks.
3 t-shirts
3 seconds of leggings
2 pair of pants
2 rompers
2 sleepers
2 pair of booties
2 bottles
2 teething toys
1 pack of 50 newborn diapers
1 can of formula
1 radish-powered formula warmer
1 yellow plush elephant
1 white noise machine

Everything in the box is green or yellow. There is no note saying who it is from.

[woundedwinter]

And that very evening a bouquet of flowers from Game of Thorns is delivered along with a wrapped box with a present for Sasha and fresh veggies for Greene.

Funny, that delivery doesn't have a card either..

Hey Buck. I need to talk to you. I... I found out some news. I've been keeping it to myself. I... I don't know how to tell you. Can we talk when I get home?

[woundedwinter]

I'm down at the docks, I'll head back now. Give me about ten minutes? [Probably less because Steve sounds shaken.]

Text After the weather event.

[morethanthis]

hey, you busy for Dinner?

[woundedwinter]

[There's a lag of a good three hours or more before a response comes through as he tries to puzzle out what she is after this time.]

No.

[There is package at the door, three of them in fact. Bucky's is a leather bracelet with the Brookyln Dodgers logo worked in metal. The metal is smooth and the leather soft almost like it's designed with Bucky in mind. The note in the box simply says]

Use this when you are feeling stressed....it helped me maybe it will help you.

Wanna get some lunch at the Saloon, have a few rounds of darts? If you're feelin' better that is.

[woundedwinter]

Yeah that sounds good. I could use a break, putting together baby furniture is a damn nightmare. [he can field strip any weapon in the damn dark, fly anything with wings but assembling a crib? It's a damn mystery.] I'll meet you there.

10/2

[beer_and_fire]

I heard Steve's out of town again, if your baby comes and ya need anything just let me know. If you wanna stay here a day or two or anything too that's alright as well.

[woundedwinter]

Thanks but aren't you gonna have your own hands full with a baby too? I'm good, I got Max here [Cue one gangly puppy butting in to snuffle at the TC eagerly, tail wagging] and I got the animals that need me.

I might need a little time to get my head around the idea that I'm gonna be someone's Pop but.. I think I'll be good with it.

[beer_and_fire]

Hey Buck, just checkin' in to see if you and little Grace are doin' alright. Diana and Helen say hi.

[woundedwinter]

Hey man. Yeah, yeah we're good. [The video switches on to show a small infant with soft wispy hair tucked in a bassinet on the porch at the farm. He's a little tired given the weird hours he's now keeping, but really he couldn't be happier.]

Once she's up and had a bottle maybe we can meet up? I'd like to meet your little lady.

10/19

[beer_and_fire]

Hey, Buck. I got a giant roast in the oven that Diana and I'd love to share with ya. Why don't you and Grace come on over for dinner in about an hour or so.

If ya can that is.

[woundedwinter]

Hey man, yeah give me a few to pack up the lady and we'll be over. Need me to grab anything on the way?

[goodviberations]

Hey, Bucky.

[He hates how pitying his voice sounds, but he can't help it.]

I heard about Steve. I'm so sorry.

[He wishes there was anything else he could possibly say.]

If you need anything, me and Barry are here, okay?

[woundedwinter]

[It's a few hours before Bucky replies because it's Cisco and his friend.] Thanks.

I shouldn't be all that surprised given how long he was gone.

[morethanthis]

Have you eaten?

Re: 10/25

[woundedwinter]

When I took Grace out to the park earlier.

[beer_and_fire]

Hey,

Come to dinner around 7 on 11/4.

Bring Grace.

Re: 10/29 - Text

[woundedwinter]

Bossy asshole. [A statement totally undercut by the way he's laughing.] Ok. I don't think David has plans with her that night.

What's up?

12/20

[beer_and_fire]

Unless you have other plans, I'm inviting you to Christmas dinner at my place on the 24th. Dinner's at 5, come hungry. I've put another crib in the nursery so if you wanna spend the night you can, Helen and Grace would have their own beds.

[woundedwinter]

Come hungry, huh? Like that's ever been a problem.

Yeah we'll be there.

[coyote_walking]

Bucky? I'm sure you've heard that Steve - well, a Steve - is back. I just wanted you to know you can tell him anything you want about, well, Hope.

And... I'm here for you if you need me. If I can help in any way.

[woundedwinter]

Hey Mercy.

Yeah that isn't our Steve. Not quite.

You sure? Shouldn't that be something you tell him when he meets her?

1/4

[beer_and_fire]

Hey babe, you wanna come over for lunch?

[woundedwinter]

Like I'm ever gonna say no to that. Give me time to grab a shower, I've been loading feed all morning.

[Sends picture of Helen sleeping on his chest]

[woundedwinter]

[A picture that is absolutely saved to his device.] Good place to nap.

[quickeningpoison]

A member of the Cobra Council wants to fund the empty 50 acres to try and grow a surplus. More farmhands will be needed. Do you want me to hire them or would you like to hire them yourself ?

[woundedwinter]

Cobra Council? [Weird. He's made a point to keep as far from politics as possible. Who could want to..

Oh.]

Fifty acres is a lot. I'll take care of it. Any thoughts on what you want planted?

1/26

[cap_rogers0704]

Hey Buck, when you get a chance you should come by and see the store. Leonard helped me get it all cleaned up and everything. Even helped me with my accounting books!

[woundedwinter]

[Oh is that so? Don't mind his amused grin] Yeah? Sounds like he's been a good friend since you got here.

I've got a hell of a lot more land to manage thanks to your guy but I'll be by the store before it gets too late.

Re: 1/30

[woundedwinter]

[Damnit Mercy. He rubs his forehead.] You may want to come over Stevie, I'll explain everything ok?

[The smell of breakfast food wafts through the house, all is quiet and still as Mick walks into the bedroom carrying a tray laden with pancakes, bacon, eggs, and sausage. He's carrying a carafe of coffee and two mugs. He sets it down on the little bench at the foot of the bed walks around to lean over and kiss Bucky sweetly, waking him if he's not already awake]

Happy birthday, baby.

Aww Mick

[woundedwinter]

[Sleeping with Diana and Mick is one of the very few times Bucky can sleep undisturbed by nightmares or waking up at the slightest sound. So he's soundly out when Mick slips out of bed, but the smell of coffee and promise of food has him pulling himself up on his elbows to greet Mick's kiss with a sleepy smile.]

Mnh. Hey. [And then it sinks in. Birthday. The first real one he's had in a long while. His smile warms and he tugs him in for another kiss.] Best present I ever got.

3/10

[cap_rogers0704]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, OLD MAN!

[woundedwinter]

You're just as old as me punk.

3/12

[cap_rogers0704]

Hey, you wanna come over for lunch today? I didn't get to take you out for your birthday so I figured I'd get us something and we could eat here.

[woundedwinter]

Yeah, I can do that as soon as I finish up the morning rounds over here. Want me to come by the shop?
