[At some point during the last few months, Bucky has come to several conclusions. He’s realized that future seems to come with some important changes, such as everything costing a lot more now (seriously, the price of one meal could’ve paid the rent in their Brooklyn apartment for several months), but apparently that means you also get more money, much more, really, than he ever could have thought to have in his possession. There’s new kind of food, weird fruit and dishes he can’t pronounce, and also something has happened to bananas to make them taste supremely strange.

When he thought to finally get some new clothes, something more casual than the army uniform he’s been wearing until now, well. He didn’t think he’d be facing yet another Future Thing (as he’s named them), but instead of clothes he’s used to, he’s staring at rows and rows of t-shirts with weird slogans on them, button-ups and hoodies and cardigans and skinny jeans and—are those jackets made of leather? Yeah, they sure seem to be.]

Huh. [For a moment, he just. stares. Until he draws in a deep breath, rolls his shoulders and assumes the air of a man going into battle.]

Right. Better get to it, then.

[Come help a fella out, why don’t you? Or, you know, just laugh at his plight as his journal deems it necessary to record this -- that works too.]

[This time, as he looks at her, sharply, the quality of his smile changes -- there's a hollowness to it, a little less bright than before.]

When your country calls, you gotta serve. An' there ain't much r&r in the army. [So after years of battle after battle, marching, and the past year, mission after mission after mission for the Commandos -- all this free time is definitely throwing him off the loop.]

	[ It earns a sympathetic smile. She can only imagine. She's never seen a full on war, and she hopes that she never does. The secret 'war' is a little different, too... ] Then I guess all I can say is... try to enjoy a bit of rest here? It's been... a lot less stressful, I've noticed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[But that's the thing, really -- rest isn't what he's used to. Not having anything to do is not something he's used to, ever, not even before the war. It was always work, work, taking care of his sisters, taking care of Steve, going out, getting what little sleep he could before it was back to work in the morning again.

All this time he has here, all this peace and quiet, it's so alien to him.]

... Yeah. Thanks, I gotta try that.

	[ A peek up at him as they move. ] There's work, too. If you find yourself restless. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He rubs the back of his head, nodding - that's been on his mind, too.] I know, been thinkin' of getting one. Just gotta figure out what... not like there's docks around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
