JAMES (BUCKY) BARNES

Hey, this is James. Text me if you need me. Or leave me a message if you want, but I'm probably not going to listen to it because, seriously, this is 2017 and no one uses voicemail any more.

we were all in costume it's not like i could tell who anyone actually was
all i know is we knew each other
or at least he knew me and some other person i apparently knew named natasha

i don't think this guy remembers any of that
he just looked confused when i asked him about it

[There are more important things to ask than about why James was in a costume.

There are more important things to ask than what the hell James was wearing.

There are more important things to ask than if this has anything to do with the stupidest outfit ever and the gym towel mask he was wearing back in August.

Have some self-restraint...]

Nope, can't do it, can't pass this over.

All in costume? Seriously? The guy you're remembering is a costumed WWII soldier?

[frostythehitman]

oh yeah
all of us were
all of us on that special ops team anyway
they made comics and newsreels about it and everything

[ James may not have any of those newsreels, but he does have the comics! Behold, a photograph he just took of one of the covers. ]

[standalonehuman]

Is that guy on fire? Are you punching Hitler?? [DELETE DELETE.]

I have...questions.

Okay, you'd mentioned the comic books before. These are, what, really of? The guy you're remembering? Not just propaganda fictionalized accounts?

[frostythehitman]

it's a little bit both real and propaganda as far as i can tell
i don't remember anything happening that i saw in the comics
and everyone acts stupid or gets drawn really badly
but the characters are definitely real
those are me and my teammates and the bad guys we used to fight

[standalonehuman]

[This is Togusa trying really really hard to take this seriously and not ask. NOPE, can't do it.]

..........Even Hitler?

[frostythehitman]

...okay no not hitler
not YET
maybe i just haven't remembered it yet

[standalonehuman]

If you ever do remember that, you have got to tell me.

[frostythehitman]

if i ever remember punching hitler i'm telling EVERYONE
