[Okay, Facility, have a Bucky who is not, NOT happy. In fact, he looks kind of freaked out, though he's managed to mask most of it. Still, if you know him very well at all, you'll realize that he's clearly thinking that something is wrong. If you're wondering, he's not in costume, just wearing a black bodysuit underneath a blue plaid overshirt.] What the hell is going on? We aren't supposed to get new people this week, let alone this many. Has this ever happened before?
This isn't a normal batch of newbies. I just... I think I just met myself, but... a little different. Younger. That isn't possible, is it? They can't throw two of me in this place. God I am a pain in the ass...
[With a frown, he cuts the feed.]

[The message just contains directions to a two-story house toward the edge of town, as isolated as any of them get without being too obviously isolated, along with the following:]
This is the base for this trip. Most of you know the drill, no visitors unless you're sure about them since this is supposed to be a safe place in or out of costume, no video posts from the base PERIOD, and don't talk about the place in public. There are precautionary wards up to keep hostiles and unwanted intruders out.

[He sounds a little haggard.] Kids? Check in immediately. Don't make me worry, I want to regroup with you guys as soon as possible.

You up for a little surveying? I wanna check out how big this place is, get the bird's-eye-view of it.
