exorcising the ghost

who: Bucky and TOTALLY OPEN
what: Some spying, some clothes shopping, some rescuing
when: Throughout August
where: Quarantine
warnings: None. If any crop up, they'll go in the subject lines

[A: Open; sneaking around]

[Pierce might be gone, but that doesn't mean that Bucky feels like it's safe to relax. The man could easily have recruited, could have left planted spies and operatives behind, or files that could be very damaging in the wrong hands. He needs to make sure for himself that any of these people, or any of this information, is weeded out and dealt with appropriately.

Which is why if anyone is working in, or happens to be at, the hospital, any of the laboratories in the city, any buildings that deal with high level technology, or the perimeter guard; there's a late night visitor who definitely isn't authorised to be there. Sneaking through the hallways in black combat gear, obviously armed, and hacking into computer systems.]


[B: Open; shopping and rescuing]

[He's really trying to make an effort to get involved in life again, not just surviving. And part of that means coming into the city itself even if he hates it, making the skin between his shoulder blades itch as if a knife is coming right for him.

He's decided his first self appointed mission will be to get some new clothes, because the ones he has are falling off him from the weight he's lost hiding out for months, and have got threadbare besides. But he's also keeping an eye out for any trouble, and so if he notices anyone in danger from anything - speeding car, mugger, oddly strong breeze - he'll drop all his bags to intervene.]


[C: Closed to Tony Stark; memories]

[He's not sure whether Stark will still be willing to help him, after he blew up at him the last time and then literally disappeared for weeks on end to hide from Pierce. He's also not sure why he feels guilty, and it annoys him that he does. He's even got an apology gift tucked awkwardly under one arm, because he can vaguely remember his Ma telling him that this was the polite way to do things, and he already deeply regrets getting anything in the first place.

Too late now.

He forgoes knocking and slips into the lab, as long as he finds it open, and will take a perch on any of the nearby tables to wait for Stark to show up.]

[ There's no immediate response to that, which probably means that the AI is at least considering it. It should probably worry Tony, but considering he's done much worse, he's not sure why he'd start now. ]

This friend of a friend of yours wouldn't happen to be a doctor, would he?

[ Tony's honestly not sure what's worse, if it is the same guy or if Pierce's reach really was spreading farther than he'd like. ]

[ It was a long shot. Tony lets out a breath but just nods once, looking thoughtful. ]

Okay. So say we do break into his info. Then what?
buildsomething: (seriously...)

[ Tony gives him a flat, slightly exasperated look. ]

And what if there isn't? What if everyone just told him to go screw himself and it all vanished with him?

[ He gets the idea of needing a focus, boy does he. But Tony can't help but be a little worried that this is a wild goose chase Bucky is sending himself on. ]

[ He doesn't quite groan, but it's a near thing. ]

This is a terrible plan. You realize that, right? Like, there are so many unknown variables here I can't even count them all. JARVIS can't even count them all.

[ Tony waves a hand vaguely at ceiling. And then sighs. So what does it say about him that he's doing it anyway? ]

Fine. Talk to JARVIS, he'll get you hooked up.
