manhattan, new york city. 2018. but bucky doesn’t feel right in 2018. he stands in central park, shooting glances at his surroundings. families, kids playing. woman jogging on his right, a green lawn beneath his feet. cars buzzing, people walking, and there’s a bridge somewhere, up there, in front of him. like a vet who returns from war, he struggles falling back in line to civillian life. the war wasn’t seventy or so years ago. the war was just yesterday. he peers down at his chest and he remembers, his howling commandos uniform. it was sharp, he was proud. now he wears civilian clothes. he doesn’t recognize himself, anymore. he has long messy hair and a beard he’s skeptical to cut. change to his routine, felt like chaos right now. marks on his body he couldn’t explain, were never there, when hydra first captured him. and, worst of all, the metal arm. he peers down at the metallic fingertips and flexes each one. this was the biggest mystery on his body. how did he end up with an entirely metallic arm and not remember it? it fit like a glove, maybe because his real arm was gone. he could tell from the handiwork. it reminded him of the vibranium from steve’s shield, but that was a long time ago. each day was a new day, but his war stories felt like a recurring dream. he sleeps, and remembers falling off a train. he wakes, a soldier in a civilian world. then he wonders new york, finds himself in different places struggling to fall in line, like now. he goes like clockwork. he doesn’t belong here. his eyes raise with a steady look, jaw clenches, body tenses a little. and the question he asks himself every day, he asks again. aloud. “what the hell is this?”
#ok so i jus finished this i had to post it#but i swear i'm answering starters too!!#bound:start#**what the hell: the ongoing saga pt ii**

it only came in pieces ; faded memories , empty laughs , ghostly touches . pepper , the woman with a plan ---- the woman who had her & EVERYONE ELSE’S shit together , knew when something was wrong it was wrong . she was in a bar , a unique location for someone like pepper who often ENJOYED drinking alone rather in a room full of strangers . but being alone while grasping for some sense of reality was TOO MISERABLE for even pepper’s taste . tracing the rim of her martini glass she contemplated on a refill . ❝ it’s a tuesday night & i’m acting like i’m on a rare vacation . ❞ she shook her head , ❝ please stop me when i’m on my third . it’s NOT PRETTY i’ll tell you that much . ❞

It was strange, how much this world mirrored her own, yet differing just enough for her to recognize it as not being hers. Not that she’d even begun trying to solve the mystery of her little world swap just yet. No, other questions had to be answered first. As it was, Gwen was content to live her life here until she’d solved her problem. Attending classes had become a major part of that. “Look, I’ve really got to finish these notes before my next class, so whatever you need, please make it fast.”

❛ just give me a second , dude . ❜ the brunette says , eyes trained on the laptop ( old reliable , she takes to calling it these days ) as her fingers moved across the keyboard . they had the muscle memory , of course , so that skye wouldn’t have to look at her fingers — but she liked to make sure she got through the job . said job being looking up anything about the rude customer from this morning out there . the girl presses the Enter key as she looked up , screen searching all databases . ❛ — okay , aye . wassup ? ❜

it’s strange. possibly one of the strangest things he’s seen. well, in real life that is. his dreams tended to be as weird as this; sometimes he’d see something akin to blue fire or lightening come from his fingertips. sometimes there were aliens - and not the kind from any sci-fi movie he’s watched. but those were dreams. nonsensical things his subconscious brought up because of his tendency to lose hours to comic books. either way, that was fiction. this... thing was right THERE. he’d had to tilt his head back quite a bit just to take in all of it. his fingers twitch slightly; itching to not only touch it but draw it. immortalize it in his sketchbook. without turning to the person next to him, he practically breathes out, “what is this?”

❛ you have got to be joking , ❜ he almost huffs , in disbelief at the sudden price mark up over a pack of wooden pencils he needed for a PHSYICS MIDTERM . eyes practically rolling to the back of his head , peter shuffles through the opened pocket of his school backpack , scavenging for left over change to compile with his dollar bill . A QUARTER , A STICK OF UNWRAPPED GUM ( one he still may consider saving for later ) , and CHAPSTICK . there’s a SIGH that emits distress . ❛ hey , do you think they’ll sell these guys to me by the pencil ? ❜ the question is directed towards the one conveniently nearby . after all , he only needed two . ❛ i could’ve sworn they used to for like, a quarter each . . . ❜

new york city frightened kurt. he grew up in small villages having a nomadic life, only really seeing the deep country side of europe. the large buildings, loud large crowds and speeding cars made him feel overwhelmed. the blue man kept his body covered as much as he could, wearing a trench coat, gloves and a hat that tipped forward just enough to cast a shadow. his tail had been tucked into the back of his pants under the coat but it made it’s way free without him knowing, swaying near the ground behind as he walked. his yellow eyes were trained on the ground, too scared to make eye contact with anyone which caused him to collide into someone’s shoulder. “ i am so sorry !! i vasn’t vatching... i’m very sorry !! “ he exclaimed, head still down.
