I like the feeling of making things. Itās very very rewarding. And filmmaking is that type of experience, where youāre forced to collaborate with so many people. Youāre involved in the beginning to end, youāre involved with so many elements, and when itās done, youāre like, āI made this movie.

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā HEāS PRETTY SURE THATāS WHAT A SKRULL WOULD SAY, TOO, but first of all: Why would a Skrull turn into Steve and appear in his backyard all of a sudden? To do what? And secondly: Cookie isnāt lying. A dog can notice very well if someone just looks like somebody else, but isnāt the right person beneath clothes and makeup or a nano mask. And Cookie might be friendly to most humans and demand pets from everyone in his vicinity, but certainly not after such a rather frightening occurrence. (Just shattering your mug is a frightening occurrence to Cookie, after all.) And yet heās still standing in front of ā that guy and is wagging his tail off. āWhat,ā Steve makes. This whole situation is bizarre. āI ā yeah, thatās my dog. His name is Cookie.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā He looks the man up and down again, noticing the little differences; not only the hair situation but also the way he stands (both feet square on the ground, so probably no bum knee) and dresses. Shit, maybe he should call Dr. Strange. Heās best equipped when you think you encountered another one of yourself, right? āOkay, listen, this is weird as hell. But maybe you should come inside because itās cold, and I have a really nosy neighbor. If she sees two of us standing in the garden, she will probably call the cops, and I have no idea how to explain this to them.ā He gestures between the two of them, then sort of points to the house. āSo, um, mi casa es su casa?ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā šššš Ā ššš Ā ššššš Ā ššš Ā šššš Ā ššš Ā ššš, Ā ššš?Ā itĀ wasĀ sortĀ ofĀ aĀ comfortĀ toĀ knowĀ thatĀ heĀ wasnātĀ theĀ onlyĀ oneĀ outĀ ofĀ theirĀ comfortĀ zoneĀ onĀ this.Ā thereĀ wereĀ subtleĀ differencesĀ inĀ theĀ otherĀ himĀ thatĀ madeĀ thisĀ evenĀ weirder,Ā especiallyĀ whenĀ heādĀ beenĀ returningĀ theĀ stonesĀ soĀ thatĀ theyĀ wouldnātĀ createĀ anyĀ alternateĀ timelinesĀ āĀ butĀ this?Ā thisĀ wasĀ clearlyĀ notĀ hisĀ earth.Ā notĀ withĀ thisĀ otherĀ himĀ thatĀ wasĀ stoodĀ thereĀ inĀ frontĀ ofĀ whatĀ heĀ claimedĀ wasĀ hisĀ house.Ā buckyĀ wasĀ waitingĀ forĀ himĀ backĀ homeĀ āĀ steveĀ hadĀ promisedĀ thatĀ thisĀ wasĀ hisĀ lastĀ missionĀ andĀ thenĀ heādĀ beĀ backĀ toĀ livingĀ lifeĀ asĀ aĀ civilian.Ā itĀ wasĀ meantĀ toĀ beĀ oneĀ lastĀ missionĀ toĀ keepĀ thingsĀ onĀ theĀ straightĀ andĀ narrow,Ā butĀ thisĀ wasnātĀ whatĀ heādĀ expectedĀ toĀ happen.Ā heĀ lookedĀ downĀ atĀ theĀ deviceĀ thatĀ bruceĀ hadĀ setĀ himĀ upĀ with,Ā theĀ thingĀ gaveĀ aĀ sizzleĀ thatĀ letĀ himĀ knowĀ heĀ wasnātĀ jumpingĀ anywhereĀ anyĀ timeĀ soon.Ā hell.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ā uh,Ā sure .āĀ hisĀ agreementĀ wasĀ moreĀ distractionĀ thanĀ anythingĀ butĀ heĀ roseĀ hisĀ blueĀ eyesĀ toĀ theĀ otherĀ him,Ā troubledĀ eyesĀ seeingĀ everyĀ subtleĀ differenceĀ asĀ somethingĀ thatĀ deferredĀ thisĀ earthĀ fromĀ hisĀ own.Ā heĀ tookĀ aĀ stepĀ towardĀ theĀ otherĀ him,Ā motioningĀ forĀ himĀ toĀ leadĀ theĀ way,Ā seeingĀ asĀ heĀ didnātĀ knowĀ thisĀ house.Ā theĀ dogĀ followedĀ atĀ hisĀ side,Ā waggingĀ asĀ heĀ went.

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Neither Fury nor Coulson followed them, which was a pleasant surprise, although Bucky had no doubts that they watched their every step through the countless surveillance cameras and debated just how they could keep Steve here without kidnapping him and throwing him into a high-security prison. The agents that passed them didnāt pay them much attention besides lifting a brow at their odd clothes; finding Captain America was reserved for high clearance levels, apparently. Bucky just hoped that they could continue their walk out like this.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āI donāt know. They didn'tā¦ they thought your brain might be injured. Some looney stuff, you know? People being frozen and waking up after decades isnāt common, not even in this century. So they didnāt want to scare you or confuse you.ā They reached the little office Bucky changed and left his clothes and belongings in. He grabbed his wallet, phone, and keys, and then stared at the metal arm. Shit, Steve shouldnāt have to deal with that on top of all the crazy things he was already being confronted with, so Bucky quickly shoved the arm into an old-fashioned backpack they considered giving Bucky for maximum 40s style, then turned around and smiled at his friend. It was still like being punched in the gut just looking at him. āI wonāt let them keep you as their lab rat, Steve. Iāll get you out of here. Iāll get you home and then we canā¦ we can talk about all this, get you settled in. Okay? I promise.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā He slung the backpack over his shoulder and reached for Steveās arm, squeezing his hand reassuringly. He didnāt want to let go anymore because this was Steve, and he was alive and well, so Bucky thought fuck it and just kept holding his hand as he was leading him out of the little office and down the hallway to a whole row of elevators. āRomanoff,ā he greeted the red-haired woman waiting there. This sure as hell wasnāt a coincidence, but as long as she didnāt try anything, it was okay. āBarnes,ā she said as they stepped into the same elevator, ogling Steve with blatant interest. Buckyās shoulders were up around his ears in defense until they got out at ground level and managed to walk to the glass doors through a whole throng of agents and office workers. āIām gonna call an Uber, wait for a second,ā he muttered once they were outside, fishing for his phone.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ššš Ā šššš Ā šššš Ā ššš Ā ššššš Ā ššš Ā šššš Ā ššššš, Ā ššš Ā šš Ā ššš Ā šššš Ā ššššš, Ā šššš Ā ššššš Ā ššššš Ā šššš Ā šššš Ā šššš Ā ššššššššš Ā šš Ā šššš Ā ššš Ā šš Ā šššš Ā šššššš Ā šššššššš Ā šššš Ā ššššāš Ā ššššššššš.Ā itĀ sureĀ didnātĀ putĀ thoseĀ fellasĀ inĀ hisĀ goodĀ books.Ā itĀ wasĀ clearĀ byĀ theĀ wayĀ thatĀ theĀ roomĀ hadĀ beenĀ stagedĀ thatĀ theyĀ didnātĀ haveĀ aĀ long-termĀ plan,Ā soĀ heĀ supposedĀ thatĀ theyĀ hadnātĀ plannedĀ toĀ keepĀ himĀ thereĀ muchĀ longerĀ thanĀ aĀ handfulĀ ofĀ hours,Ā butĀ thatĀ didnātĀ meanĀ thatĀ theyĀ hadnātĀ hadĀ aĀ backĀ upĀ plan.Ā hisĀ frownĀ onlyĀ etchedĀ furtherĀ intoĀ hisĀ featuresĀ asĀ buckyĀ admittedĀ thatĀ heĀ hadnātĀ knownĀ theirĀ overallĀ plan,Ā itĀ wasĀ clearĀ thatĀ buckyĀ hadnātĀ followedĀ whateverĀ versionĀ ofĀ theirĀ planĀ thatĀ theyĀ hadĀ briefedĀ himĀ on.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā thereĀ wasĀ aĀ creepingĀ feelingĀ ofĀ disbeliefĀ sinkingĀ in,Ā thoughĀ theĀ moreĀ heĀ sawĀ ofĀ theĀ buildingĀ thatĀ theyĀ wereĀ in,Ā theĀ harderĀ itĀ wasĀ toĀ allowĀ denialĀ toĀ takeĀ effectĀ āĀ theĀ proofĀ wasĀ rightĀ hereĀ inĀ frontĀ ofĀ himĀ afterĀ all.Ā evenĀ asĀ theyĀ stoppedĀ forĀ buckyĀ toĀ collectĀ hisĀ stuff,Ā steveāsĀ eyesĀ wanderedĀ toĀ theĀ electricĀ lightingĀ thatĀ didnātĀ buzzĀ orĀ flickerĀ andĀ frowned.Ā whatĀ ifĀ allĀ ofĀ thisĀ wasĀ justĀ hisĀ mindsĀ wayĀ ofĀ processingĀ hisĀ ownĀ death?Ā heādĀ putĀ theĀ birdĀ toĀ theĀ ground,Ā heĀ rememberedĀ thatĀ āĀ soĀ hadĀ heĀ TRULYĀ wokenĀ fromĀ that?Ā wasĀ thisĀ allĀ justĀ aĀ badĀ dreamĀ thatĀ heĀ wouldĀ wakeĀ from?Ā wasĀ thisĀ aĀ test?Ā hisĀ expressionĀ didnātĀ changeĀ asĀ heĀ followedĀ buckyĀ toĀ theĀ elevator,Ā thoughĀ heĀ straightenedĀ andĀ blueĀ eyesĀ movedĀ fromĀ hisĀ palĀ toĀ theĀ womanĀ thatĀ buckyĀ addressed.Ā ā maāam. āĀ heĀ greeted,Ā understandingĀ thatĀ buckyĀ wasnātĀ aboutĀ toĀ conductĀ introductionsĀ withĀ howĀ heādĀ tensedĀ upĀ theĀ momentĀ theĀ dameĀ hadĀ beenĀ withinĀ sight.Ā heĀ noddedĀ toĀ theĀ redĀ headĀ onceĀ asĀ theyĀ departed,Ā thoughĀ itĀ hadnātĀ escapedĀ hisĀ noticeĀ thatĀ theĀ elevatorĀ hadĀ beenĀ silent,Ā withoutĀ muchĀ feelĀ ofĀ movement,Ā noĀ music,Ā noĀ suddenĀ shakeĀ asĀ theyĀ reachedĀ theĀ destinationĀ floor.Ā thenĀ theyĀ steppedĀ outĀ theĀ mainĀ doorsĀ ofĀ theĀ buildingĀ andĀ steveĀ FROZE.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā heĀ heardĀ buckyĀ speakĀ butĀ heĀ didnātĀ reallyĀ hearĀ it,Ā blueĀ eyesĀ movingĀ overĀ theĀ busyĀ streetĀ beforeĀ them.Ā automobilesĀ droveĀ theirĀ designatedĀ pathĀ onĀ theĀ street,Ā thoughĀ theyĀ werenātĀ theĀ kindĀ ofĀ vehiclesĀ thatĀ steveĀ wasĀ accustomedĀ to,Ā buildingĀ afterĀ buildingĀ roseĀ inĀ shiningĀ contrastĀ toĀ theĀ brickĀ andĀ windowedĀ buildsĀ heĀ wasĀ usedĀ to,Ā peopleĀ walkedĀ andĀ talkedĀ orĀ lookedĀ downĀ atĀ aĀ deviceĀ inĀ theirĀ handĀ thatĀ lookedĀ likeĀ aĀ communicationsĀ deviceĀ ofĀ someĀ kind.Ā andĀ steveāĀ steveĀ feltĀ likeĀ heĀ wasĀ falling.Ā heĀ sawĀ buckyĀ pullĀ outĀ aĀ similarĀ metalĀ deviceĀ asĀ hisĀ ownĀ breathingĀ increasedĀ aĀ littleĀ āĀ heĀ wasĀ inĀ theĀ future.Ā ā whatĀ isĀ thatĀ thing? ā heĀ managesĀ toĀ speakĀ despiteĀ himself,Ā tryingĀ notĀ toĀ letĀ hisĀ panicĀ showĀ regardlessĀ ofĀ hisĀ slightlyĀ harsherĀ breathing.

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Damn right you are, the Soldier thought as he relaxed a wee bit, though still remained standing next to the door of his cell. Yes, his cell. Nobody stayed here except him. Doctors, guards, handlers, they only ever entered to bring him somewhere else, thus it was only logical to see this space as something that belonged to the Soldier. Until now. Because apparently, the new handler wouldnāt leave again?! The Soldier couldnāt help the scowl creeping upon his features when hearing the manās last words. That was not standard protocol. Handlers were very high up in the chain of command, they gave orders, they decided what happened with everyone, they lived in huge houses with expensive furniture, and ate caviar for breakfast. What kind of bullshit was this?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āI was not briefed on this change of standard procedure,ā he said through clenched teeth. He just woke up. They introduced the new handler a few minutes ago; when should that have happened? Fuck. The Soldier swallowed thickly and then squared his shoulders. He could handle this. He just had to approach this from a logical point of view and that told him that a handler staying with him was very illogical because they rather were anywhere else with a lot more comfort. So there had to be a reason why they chose this over soft beds and soft women. The Soldierās mind came to a screeching halt at this. They wanted to watch him more closely. There was no other explanation.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āDid any of my previous actions displease the old handler?ā he asked, again without being prompted to speak. This time, he did not care. āDid I fail to complete a mission to the handlerās utmost satisfaction?ā He was disturbed; not because he craved the handler to be happy but because he knew that discontentment would result in punishment. Yet he hadnāt been punished. This was very confusing. āI do not understand.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā šššššššš Ā ššššššššš Ā ā Ā ššš Ā ššššš Ā ššššššš Ā ššš Ā šššš Ā ššššššāš Ā ššššš Ā šššš Ā šš Ā šššššš Ā ššššš Ā šš Ā ššš Ā šššššššāš Ā ššššš, Ā ššš Ā ššššš Ā ššššššššš Ā šš Ā šššššššš Ā šš Ā ššš Ā ššššššššš.Ā buckyĀ wasĀ usedĀ toĀ thisĀ treatment.Ā heĀ hadĀ toĀ swallowĀ downĀ hisĀ emotions,Ā hadĀ toĀ tryĀ notĀ toĀ letĀ allĀ ofĀ thisĀ getĀ toĀ him,Ā heĀ couldĀ dealĀ withĀ itĀ andĀ hisĀ emotionsĀ onceĀ theĀ pairĀ ofĀ themĀ wereĀ OUT Ā of Ā H.Y.D.R.A.āsĀ grasp,Ā butĀ untilĀ thenĀ steveĀ neededĀ toĀ tryĀ toĀ winĀ thisĀ soldierĀ overĀ soĀ thatĀ theyĀ couldĀ formĀ aĀ plan.Ā heĀ didnātĀ knowĀ howĀ deepĀ aĀ holdĀ theyĀ hadĀ onĀ himĀ though,Ā andĀ steveĀ couldnātĀ beĀ sureĀ thatĀ whatĀ heĀ saidĀ wouldnātĀ getĀ reportedĀ back.Ā heĀ neededĀ toĀ keepĀ theĀ informationĀ toĀ theĀ pointĀ andĀ withinĀ hydraāsĀ limits,Ā orĀ atĀ leastĀ heĀ didĀ untilĀ heĀ knewĀ whetherĀ heĀ couldĀ trustĀ thisĀ strangerĀ thatĀ wasĀ wearingĀ hisĀ bestĀ friendāsĀ face.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ā yeah, Ā well Ā iām Ā not Ā standard Ā issue Ā H.Y.D.R.A.,Ā eitherĀ āĀ mā moreĀ likeĀ you;Ā notĀ hereĀ byĀ choice,Ā yāknow? āĀ heĀ fumblesĀ hisĀ explanationĀ andĀ sighs.Ā ā maybeĀ iāllĀ getĀ myĀ ownĀ cellĀ later,Ā butĀ iĀ donātĀ thinkĀ thatĀ myĀ comfortĀ isĀ highĀ onĀ theirĀ priorityĀ list. āĀ heĀ makesĀ aĀ faceĀ despiteĀ himself,Ā itĀ showsĀ hisĀ distasteĀ atĀ theirĀ situationĀ asĀ aĀ whole.Ā blueĀ eyesĀ moveĀ overĀ theĀ soldierĀ andĀ steveāsĀ browsĀ raiseĀ inĀ responseĀ toĀ hisĀ words.Ā āĀ iĀ donātĀ thinkĀ youāveĀ performedĀ badly,Ā pal.Ā inĀ fact,Ā iĀ thinkĀ theyāreĀ happyĀ withĀ whatĀ youĀ doĀ forĀ themĀ andĀ theyāreĀ hopingĀ thatĀ iāllĀ followĀ suitĀ Ā Ā āĀ providedĀ thatĀ iĀ knowĀ whatāsĀ goodĀ forĀ me,Ā thatĀ it. ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā inĀ fairness,Ā steveĀ hadĀ neverĀ beenĀ oneĀ toĀ knowĀ whatĀ wasĀ goodĀ forĀ him.Ā heĀ wasĀ stubbornĀ beyondĀ allĀ goodĀ sense;Ā itĀ wasĀ somethingĀ buckyĀ andĀ steveāsĀ maĀ hadĀ toldĀ himĀ farĀ tooĀ manyĀ timesĀ before.Ā steveāsĀ wordsĀ wereĀ tooĀ familiar,Ā heĀ knew,Ā andĀ heĀ neededĀ toĀ stopĀ treatingĀ thisĀ soldierĀ likeĀ bucky,Ā butĀ steveāsĀ heartĀ knewĀ thatĀ thisĀ manĀ wasĀ bucky,Ā heĀ justĀ didnātĀ knowĀ howĀ muchĀ ofĀ hisĀ palĀ wasĀ stillĀ inĀ there,Ā ifĀ atĀ all.Ā ā thisĀ isĀ stillĀ yourĀ space. ā

Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āYeah, Iāll ask Barton. Or one of the twins. Pietro is close to that Polish liquor shop one block down from Chengās. I think he has a thing for Podolskiās daughter. Honestly, we got a month of quiet, and now that asshole starts to cause problems again. Itās annoying,ā Bucky mutters as he sits up properly. He lets his gaze travel over Steveās body one last time, then reaches over to give Steveās dick (barely covered by the blanket now) an affectionate squeeze. āTonight, baby,ā he promises before he climbs out of bed, puts on some underwear and trousers, and then heads towards the kitchen, leaving the door open.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āIām making waffles for breakfast,ā he calls, cursing as he nearly trips over the cat. āYeah, yeah, making waffles after I gave you your food,ā he adds before he fills Alpineās bowl with kibble, then starts the coffee maker and gets out all the ingredients. Mondays are bad enough; at least they can start off with something good instead of dry toast and bacon. Well, bacon is pretty awesome, but he has to watch Steveās cholesterol a little. āYou want me to come along to that meeting with Stark? I know that heās grating on your nerves more often than not.
