This is INSANE. But well done. I especially like Nick Fury's commentary.

[jubilancy]

Nick/Insanity OTP!!

heart heart.

[glossing]

Insanity is totally a valid choice.

And I think Jube's channelling of Nick is getting to the level of sheer *genius*.

(Clearly I am overdue for an actual Bucky icon. This one will do, however

Oh, my, JAAAAAACK. Your feedback is never less than inspiring and challenging, but this? Is *amazing*. Thank you so much - I read it this morning and I've been bouncing and *thinking* ever since.

I can't stop thinking about Bucky, nor talking about him, and I'm just *really* lucky that kind souls like the girlfriend and jubilancy haven't told me to shut up.

The Young Avengers are really pretty awesome, and their canon's only thirteen issues (plus an appearance in the Winter Soldier special that I shared with Miss Te). I think a large part of my love for the book and team is that it's fairly easy to read as a corrective to, or gloss on, Johns's Teen Titans - but then the characters are fully-fleshed out *too*, so it's a win all around.

Nick Fury gave Bucky a new roboarm? And seems to have implanted an uplink therein, but I'm pretty sure canon has yet to explain why, other than the nice simple fact that Nick Fury is INSANE. And also wonderful. jubilancy gets allllllll the credit for his voice.

the sequel in which Steve gets to ...discover Bucky's new

Clearly I am overdue for an actual Bucky icon.
Perhaps this might work? ;)

God in HEAVEN, I love how you write.

Bucky had figured out almost immediately that the best way to get them off his case, out of his space, was to turn the tables. Play Mr. Stuck in Time, piss them off enough that they'd lose interest for a day or so.

I love your snarly gorgeous Bucky.

He was distracted, however, by the way Billy was blushing, cherry-blossoms scattered over his sharp nose, and by Teddy's wide, shocked stare.

I love your powers of description.

(I love your Billy, and Teddy, and Eli. I couldn't even pull out quotes, or the whole story would be in this comment box.)

Eli was telling the woman at the counter, a creature like something out of Namor's court, tattoos running like kelp and algae up her neck and down her arms. "But we want to start him off *easy*."

I LOVE your character voices. (That's *so* how Bucky would see her, and so vivid we all can.)

Barnes, do not get an ampallang. This is an order. You'll never piss right again.And I love how you made me nearly embarass myself laughing

[glossing]

Aww, thank you! Getting to poke at Jube's amazing brain was, seriously, about 80% of the joy of this, and this whole thing was *such* an exercise in joy and love and wish-fulfillment on just about every level.

Bucky, what did you do that mean no nookie with Cap for at least two months!?! Loved it!

[glossing]

I'm sure that Steve and Bucky can work around the site, though not necessarily without frustration.

Thank you!

[jubilancy]

Nah, it's only a week. They'll be fine.

[glossing]

Steve's going to go NUTS with the Bactine and everything else associated with speedy, thorough healing.

*glee* Thanks!
