Here sits the only Mod I mean to bend my knee to.

For a second Bucky was taken aback that Stark knew about Stephanie but remembered reading that he'd been approached to be part of Dugan's Avengers Initiative. Stark had turned it down for some reason for another but that hadn't stopped him from using those suits of his for good. Things had changed since then, HYDRA was back, and Bucky wondered whether Fury might try to fire up the Initiative again. That was a discussion for another time. Right now it was about steadying the ship and stopping HYDRA from tearing the whole goddamn world apart.

Bucky ignored the references that flew over his head, shrugging his shoulders as he looked at Stark. "I can't speak for Fury."

"And as for Stephanie," Bucky paused for a moment as he wondered whether he ought to tell Stark. "She went rogue last night with Steve's shield and has fallen off the grid. Hence why you've spent your evening slaving over this thing. I'd ask you how it worked but something tells me you could explain it to me a hundred times and I still wouldn't understand."

He saw a wry smile appear on Stark's face. For as much as Fury had made Stark sound like a pesk there was something about him that Bucky couldn't help but warm to. It was clear from looking at him that even though he thought highly of himself and had a questionable sense of humour to say the least, his heart was clearly in the right place.

Why else would he be here when he didn't have to be?

You're a nerd, just of a different color. Your nerdom, like mine, falls in the political/historical range.

@Byrd Man

That doesn't count. Bitches love them some history.

Everyone knows that.

Reading over this conversation makes me realise how wrong I was to think I was ever a nerd.

Pym? Who was Pym? Stark threw out names so quickly that Barnes struggled to even register them. He understood now why Fury had said Stark had had a mouth on him. He'd barely looked up from his work and still he'd managed to ream off more quips than Bucky would have come up with in four times as long. Mesmerised by the construct's ethereality Bucky stepped forward and stared at it. Another thing that didn't seem possible. The shield looked like something out of a dream.

"Never was one for naming my weapons," Bucky said with a shrug. "Then again, we didn't have weapons like this one."

For the first time since Barnes had stepped into the room Stark looked round at him. It was a fleeting look, one too quick for Stark to take note of Bucky's uniform, but the way his head froze upon looking back at his piece work told Bucky that Stark had finally realised who he was talking to.

Somewhere in the Maximum Universe a young Amadeus Cho is too busy playing Runescape to get into trouble.

It had taken an hour and funneling development with a small team of scientists in CADMUS by the name of Leopold Fitz, Oliver Osnick, Kimiyo Hoshi, and Yvonne Calendar. At least working with the government led to meeting people with similar genius; a fact he’d make note of as he reminded himself to get their Myspace or Xanga profiles before he finished up for the night. If he ever finished up for the night.

This fucking guy.

I imagine I should get White Tiger done before I even reply to that, but what does everyone think?

I feel like I should probably apologise to everyone for making the IC thread the Captain America Show.

It's been a slow week.
