File 008 | Bucky Barnes [Accidental Video]

Jun 29, 2011 23:33

[When the video switches on accidentally, it's because the person has dropped his 'berry down by a tree in the biodome. It's propped up nearly perfectly - funny how these things work - to catch Bucky in the frame. He's moved several feet away from the camera, wearing workout clothes, sweatpants and a tanktop with sneakers. Not very stylish, but ( Read more... )

Bucky? Is your arm acting up? There were sparks when you grabbed the shield. That, and you dropped it.

[Shit. He doesn't have any proper tools to do a proper tune up or repair. He'd have to look into make some mediocre ones or find someone who does.] I'm not an expert, but I've done mechanic work before. I can get that looked in an attempt to figure out what the problem is.

[Figures he'd notice. Stupid arm. His tone is a little teasing as he remarks,] Hey, Dick. What happened to James?

If you want to take a look at it, I can come down. It's been acting up ever since I got here, just... not like this specifically.

[Video] Oh wow I didn't even notice that. Whoops. notasidedick June 30 2011, 19:20:09 UTC
[He snorts.] I thought it would be better if we kept intimacy off the network, but I guess I can call you James out in the open. [He's being flirty.]

I wouldn't mind. I can't do a lot about it without the proper tools, but I'm sure I can help figure out what might be causing the problem. Just come by whenever you want. You know I'll always let you in. [That'swhatshesaid.]

Who said it was intimacy? [Sorry Dick, too subtle. You pretty much have to smack him in the face with flirting.] Besides, Tim didn't start stalking me yesterday, I'm pretty sure he at least already knows about your use of my given name. [Hi Tim!]

Sure, better work on this now rather than later. I'll be down in about fifteen, have to shower first. [Lololol.]

You really can't tell when someone is flirting with you in a subtle manner do you? [Laughs. This might be more fun for him if anything. Oh dear.] It's not like I'm very subtle about that. Kate knows too. On the account I refer to you as James usually. [HI TIM.]

Alright. I'll see what things I can grab in the meantime. [Expect a lot of broken parts and what not.]

...No. I still don't get why you do that. [Obviously to confuse Bucky.] You're really not, I think I can count the times I've heard you call me Bucky on one hand.

Right. I'll see you in a bit. [It takes him about twenty minutes to grab a quick shower and put on some real clothes, but then he makes his way to Dick's room, also carrying some scraps of sheet and a bottle of vodka (it's the closest thing he has to rubbing alcohol). Knock knock.]

To mess with you and express my ever loving affections towards you obviously. [Snorts.] Hey! I called you Bucky when we first met. And maybe a little after...huh I guess I did move to James pretty quickly.

[Dick has the Suite 8 TV again. It's been slightly dismantled already. All the glass is piled together, and happily none of it is in Dick's hand for the use of cutting himself.] Come in.

[Yeah, now you get a raised eyebrow.] You think? You've called me that since we got drunk.

[He heads inside, closing the door behind him, and glances curiously at the partially dismantled TV.] What's with the taking stuff apart?

I like the name James, so it's okay. [Like that makes it okay!]

I need equipment. I've been working without it for months, and it's about time I did something more then doing absolutely nothing. [He glance up at the other. He's sitting on the floor, surrounded with...well just looks like junk since they're all parts and bits from the television set. And maybe some things from the Rec Room.]

[Bucky slips in and takes a seat on the floor across from him, glancing down at the array of parts and wires and bits and pieces.] What sort of equipment? It's kind of like a scavenger hunt you can never win, trying to get any parts worth anything in this place.

[He starts shoving stuff to the side for the time being.] Anything really. I got some cable, at the very least since I do need a proper grappling hook and cable. I can make dingy projectiles with what I got available. It isn't quite what I used to work with, but I'll just live with what I can get.

But enough of that, we should try to get that arm checked. What am I allowed to do and not do?

You had to build your own equipment back home, I take it? Hm. That sort of knowledge would come in handy here, at least. Always used to just get my tech from SHIELD. [Oh, the perks of being a government-sanctioned hero.]

Ah, well. I would prefer if you didn't take it completely apart, and I'd rather not power it down completely unless it's absolutely necessary. It's like. Well, like cutting off a limb for a normal person. [His flesh hand goes to the underside of the metal arm and fiddles with a couple of things before he can slide it off.]

Kind of. Some of it I had to make myself. The skill set was convenient at the very least. I did have help, so it wasn't all just me. Still, I'm glad I have the knowledge now.

I can deal with that. I wouldn't know how to put it together by myself. [That might or might not be a lie.] But, I have some items I can use as makeshift tools. Can you tell me what happened that couldn't be explained by the feed itself? Wai-you can feel things even with it detached?

Yeah, I imagine so. I'd kill to have Tony here right now.

[Bucky slides the prosthetic over, and it wiggles its fingers almost teasingly at Dick.] I've got a neural implant in my brain that communicates with the sensors in the arm. It's not directly integrated into my nervous system, there was too much nerve damage in the stump. So, yeah, I can still "feel" some things with it detached, if you can call it feeling. As for what happened... It just kind of locked up, and I got a kind of sharp feedback, but it passed fairly quickly.

Tony? [It's just a passing thought. But he's curious.

Dick pokes the palm of the hand with the eraser end of a pencil out of curiosity.] Victor would be rather helpful here. He'd be an export with this type of things. Oh well.

Locked up? Is it from the force perhaps? [Purses his lips. He runs a hand through his hair. Oh, it's starting to get long. Oh well. He seems rather absorbed with Bucky's arm though, his attention not wavering a bit as he seems to give it a thorough look over without actually opening any parts yet.]

Tony Stark, teammate of mine. Technological genius of a bastard running around in a metal suit. Victor? [He's a little curious, too, but generally unconcerned. He settles back to watch Dick work, taking note that... this is probably the first time he's seen Dick looking serious.]

It could be stress or possibly a lack of proper lubrication. I haven't really been able to do more than just clean it with vodka or water, and of course I haven't been able to go in for a tune up with the SHIELD tech guys.
