Back in Wakanda, Bucky didn't have a dog, but he did have goats. He'd named them after each of the Howling Commandos and one particularly stubborn one after Steve. They were entertaining creatures who each had personalities and Bucky enjoyed taking care of them. But they weren't dogs. They weren't a super cute dog like Lucky. When the dog finished sniffing him and it seemed like Bucky was determined to be a good peoples, he started to bed the dog behind the ears and scratch his head. It was pretty much love at first sight. For as stressed and pissed off as he'd been when he left the bar, he felt a lot calmer now just from petting Lucky.
There was something about the way Clint remarked about his interaction with his dog that made Bucky's mood lighten even more. It was another reminder that he did really like Clint, and he did very much enjoy his company. "That's a first," he said. "I've never heard of or been called 'dumb cute' before." He turned to look at Clint, though he was still petting Lucky. "Is that good or bad?" Because that was something that sounded both good and bad at the same time.
