    Summary

    “I can pay for your lunch,” The man offered again, looking apologetically desperate for it, and pulled his wallet out of his pocket. He was still wearing his gloves. Maybe he had poor circulation. He offered a wrinkled twenty to Yuri, who shook his head and waved it away.
    “No bother. I must go back to the restaurant and get a new salad. They take forever to cook, but it is worth it.”
    “Oh, where is it?” The man said, raising his eyebrows in conversation. He swallowed. “I’ve…uh, been looking for places to eat.”
    “New to the area?”
    The man nodded. “You could say that. Haven’t been around in a while.”
    Yuri watched him with a frown. “Hmm,” He was pale and looked like he had lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time. His shoulders were hunched like he wanted to disappear. Perhaps he did drugs. Or was homeless. Either way, Yuri enjoyed forcing his favorite restaurant on other people.
    “Come. I will take you to lunch. Izzy’s makes the best food during work breaks.”

    How did Bucky and Mr Nakajima meet? Come find out! Involves spilled salad and grumpy old men saying what they like because they are old and have no filter. I kind of love funny old people

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Have to go to central,” the officer who had recognized the two of them replied, glancing back at Bucky. “Only place that can secure people like you.”

    Bucky simply nodded in response, his gaze shifting back down at the cuffs surrounding his wrists. It would take him less than two seconds to snap them, another thirty seconds maybe to disable the two officers and take over the vehicle. But then he’d be on the run again. And Sam…instead of angry, Sam would be disappointed. And that was a hell of a lot worse.

    So Bucky waited.

    He waited until they arrived at the station, reminding himself to breathe and release tension as the younger female officer moved his hands about for fingerprinting, and then again letting her position him for yet another photo, the metal arm causing a weird reflection in most shots.

    Bucky initially froze at the strip search, having to remind himself once again that he should wait, as he methodically removed his clothes one step at a time, his right arm only trembling once before remembering how to turn his mind off, letting himself drift off as another person ran their hands over his body.

    They asked many times if they could remove the arm, Bucky shaking his head firmly no every time. If there was a way to detach his arm, he didn’t know it. And he wasn’t going to let anyone poke around at it.

    They left it well enough alone until he was processed, and then the basic metal cuffs on his wrists were exchanged for reinforced vibranium cuffs, about two inches in thickness, and matching ones around his ankles, with barely enough space to shuffle around.

    Then he was placed, alone of course, in a cell, reinforced with some energy barrier similar to what they had at the raft. He rolled his eyes at the STARK logo in the top right corner. Damn Tony.

    Shuffling over to the far corner, Bucky sat down, looking out at the flickering blue light. Finally no one was telling him what to do, or touching him without his permission, but instead of being relieved, Bucky felt almost…numb.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    He watches the world turn and twist and tremble in fear, from one threat, then another, then another still. He enjoys the interregnum when it arrives, the empty streets, the quiet buildings. Not the order he would have imposed, but he can hardly fault the mad god for his results.

    Then they return, all of them, loud and crude and chaotic. He wonders then what chance the organization had, if someone with the pulse of the universe in his fingertips could not bring order to the cosmos, order to the planet, order to this blighted creation.

    The doctor thinks, perhaps, this is the twilight of the clockwork God. He only hopes the night is a long time in coming.

    He studies the patterns, the processes, the intricate cycles within cycles. And when he hears the knock at the door of his humble flat, the last stop of a convoluted journey intended to throw any pursuit off the scent, he assumes it is another salesman, a misaddressed delivery, perhaps even a drunken friend of the university student who lives down the hall. All these have come to his door before.

    He opens the door with his customary frown, prepared to shoo this interloper from his threshold. His breath catches in his lungs when the hallway comes into view, however. Standing on his doormat, the one with an image of green ferns he purchased because he found solace in their fractal replication, is a man with dark hair and pale eyes.

    He stares into those eyes for a long moment. “You’ll be wanting to come in, I suppose.”

    The asset stares back.

    This is an ending, he knows.

    The asset pads in when the doctor opens the door wide. He takes a moment to study the asset, the simple black coat, the blue jeans, the scuffed boots. Not the outfit most associated with the asset. But then the asset has been many things, a solider least among them.

    He returns his gaze to the asset’s face, the impassive blue eyes. The asset returns his look, cool, assessing. The doctor tilts his head back.

    “They cut your hair,” he notes.

    The asset blinks, mouth tightening briefly. The open door yawns beside them, a slim sliver of the outside world, the worn carpet and white wainscotting of the hallway visible. The asset lifts his hand, touches two gloved fingers to the wood and sends it closed.

    “I cut it,” the asset says over the sound of the spring latch sliding into the strike plate.

    The doctor stills, wondering if he has ever heard this tone in the asset’s voice. This peculiar blend, satisfaction and derision. Accomplishment and sorrow. Defiance.

    He regards the asset once more. “Was it required?”

    “No,” the asset responds.

    The doctor frowns. “Who directed this, then?”

    “No,” the asset repeats.

    He waits for the rest, the one, anything that might provide an explanation. “Then why?” he asks at length.

    Something flits across the asset’s mouth. “Because I wanted to.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Barnes keeps close to the glass walls dividing Pepper’s lounge from the corridor. He moves like a nightmare, too smooth and too inevitable to run from. Maria sees spikes near his hands (how did he get all those knives?) and is already drawing her gun.

    “JARVIS, what is he—?”

    “No cause for alarm, Miss Potts,” says JARVIS smoothly. “Sgt. Barnes has availed himself to some grooming supplies.”

    “For himself?”

    “Oh my god.” Maria lowers her gun.

    They’re paddles. They’re paddles strapped to his hands. Bristling with teeth.

    “For brushing the llama,” she says, incredulous.

    Summary

    It should be simple. After all, it’s one of the first words every child learns, right after “mama” and “papa”. Hell, it had been Becca’s favorite word when she was two or three.

    But he couldn’t say it. Not as a shout, not as a whisper, not as a prayer or a curse. It’s as if it got stuck somewhere between his throat and lips - it just wouldn’t come out.

    Summary

    After midnight, he climbs up onto the roof of the temple, into a hidden corner, and lies on his back, staring up at the sky.

    Confess. Repent. Fix it.

    He can’t remember the words he’d say to the priest in Brooklyn. He can’t remember the words his mother would say, behind closed doors, muffled.

    “I killed a lot of people,” he says, voice quiet, eyes locked on a single star visible through the glow of the city. “I’m trying to remember them all. I have a list. I don’t want to forget again.”

    He takes a deep breath. Shifts, brings his right arm up to pillow his head. Flexes the metal fingers of his left hand where it rests against the rooftop. “I didn’t want to do it. And if I have any say in the matter, I won’t ever do it again.”

    He closes his eyes, then, and whispers, so quiet only God could hear him, “I’m sorry.”
