A boat?

[wipedclean]

[Oh. Right. He forgot to mention that part.]

I'm in Mair. I can take a boat back to the Station.

[starspangled]

[Dear lord, it's worse than he thought. Steve's heard about Mair. He's vowed to never step foot in it.

And yet he would've if he'd known.]

I see. I would tell you to not lean too far over the edge, but we both know you're a pretty good swimmer.

[wipedclean]

[Ha. Not really funny, but he appreciates the reference to something he can remember.]

Yes.

[starspangled]

Got a place to stay tonight?

[wipedclean]

[...oh. Sleep.

It's not until right that moment that he realizes he hasn't actually had significant sleep for the past several days. He could probably go for another full 24 hours without sleep, but he's got a feeling Steve wouldn't like that.]

I... can find something.

[Jack will probably try to drag him into a brothel.]

[starspangled]

[He would not approve of your new friend Jack. Steve sighs softly, because 'something' doesn't sound very promising. He'll give him a few gold coins when he gets back, enough for a few nights of food and shelter, just in case.]

A roof over your head would be nice. But as long as it's someplace safe.

[wipedclean]

[He sighs a little, because he's pretty sure he's more dangerous than anything this city can throw at him, but he doesn't say that.]

I'll be fine.

[starspangled]

I know.

[A little embarrassment creeps into his voice, because Bucky's a grown man, much less a trained killer. And he doesn't want to bring up the past either, how Bucky always took care of him, even when he didn't make it easy.]

I guess I just don't wanna lose you again.

[wipedclean]

[...oh.

He's quiet for a long time at that one.]

You won't.

[starspangled]

Okay.

[Bucky says that he won't, and Steve takes it as a promise, a simpler end of the line but just as good.]

Sam has a surprise for you when you get back.

[wipedclean]

[He's a little suspicious of surprises.]

...okay.
