Freckles brought me this nice shiny new piece of gadgetry and tells me it's called a computer, and spent the better part of a day teaching me how to use it. She deserves a raise, bossman. Or at least a raise in her allowance. She's going to make one hell of a nurse someday.

Anyway, she tells me I need to introduce myself. I'm Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes, Served with the 107th in the war, and got bot bumped up to a special team after a daring rescue from a real good pal of mine, who single handed saved three hundred other men from certain death.

Right, back to the introduction. People I call friends call me Bucky. The dames often called me Sergeant. I'm not going to knock either.

Hey Steve, both of you, who knew that typing class would do me any good, huh? And you thought I was just taking it for the broads.

	Ah, no. I am sorry. My name is Princess Luna, not Sweetheart! Sweetheart does, however, reside within Canterlot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You are really too kind, Sergeant! Please, call me Luna. I insist! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's an honor, Luna. Please call me Bucky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bucky. Does this derive from work as a bucker? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 04:50 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, no, it's short for Buchanan. Helped me stand out from all the young bucks in the neighborhood, who also had the name James. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh! You are also from Equestria then? I have met several stags. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, no ma'am. I'm from Brooklyn, New York. Can't say I've ever heard of Equestria. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mare_inthe_moon 2013-10-18 05:00 pm UTC (link)
	Oh..Well that is alright, most have not. I have not been to Brooklyn, yet, but I have seen New York City and it was very lovely! Is that nearby? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is actually, you can take a tunnel or a bridge to get to it from the island. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounds very nice. I will have to go before this door closes! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 07:27 pm UTC (link)
	Well it's nothing to shake a stick at. What do you mean before the door closes? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mare_inthe_moon 2013-10-18 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	I should not visit, then? It would seem there are "doors" into worlds we cannot normally reach from this island. They do not stay active for very long. I am likely not the best guide, but I would be happy to show you Sergeant Bucky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 07:50 pm UTC (link)
	It's mostly resedential, from what I remember. But 70 years after what I remember, it might be a whole lot different. So I don't know if it would be worth seeing or not. I'd like that. The second I get these lines out of my arm, and the plugs off my chest it's a date. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mare_inthe_moon 2013-10-18 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	I can sympathize. Perhaps you will enjoy this new Brooklyn. What do you have in your arms and chest, Sergeant Bucky? I do not understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	One can only hope, Ma'am. I have a IV going into my arm, because I was a little bit dehydrated when I crash landed, and they got all sorts of monitors and beepers and clickers taped to my chest so they can be sure nothing happens to me while I'm here I guess. I'm under observation, seems a scrape with death tends to scare the docs. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mare_inthe_moon 2013-10-18 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	By the stars! That sounds awful! Is there anything I can do for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-18 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	Oh no, I'm fine really most of my bruises are already ugly yellow things, and the scrapes will go away soon enough. It's been nice to get some rest, and to be waited on. Sitting here and being a good boy keeps my friend from feeling too bad, you see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do not think I understand, but if you need anything of me I will bring it to you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sergeant_barnes 2013-10-19 12:35 am UTC (link)
	I appreciate it. I should be out soon enough, though. (Reply to this) (Parent)
