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.

[frostythehitman]

[ He gets the message barely a day after he gets out of juvie, so. He's not really feeling all that festive or celebratory. But he should at least respond. ]

thanks ami
happy new years to you too

[livingdeadgirl]

so how was your christmas?
do anything fun?

[frostythehitman]

[ "oh, you know, just got arrested and sat in juvie for a week, nbd" yeah right like he's gonna tell her THAT ]

nah
pretty boring around here
like half the people on base always go on leave this time of year so
it's pretty empty
what about you
how was yours

[livingdeadgirl]

pretty good!
my grandma came to visit for two weeks
even though she lives like 3 miles away lol
but other than that not a lot went on
i remain the familys reigning settlers of catan champion!

[frostythehitman]

is catan a christmas tradition for you guys

[livingdeadgirl]

kinda yeah
its one of like two board games that grandma likes

[frostythehitman]

huh
well
sounds like it was a nice time

[livingdeadgirl]

it was mostly!
i tried to impress her with my one semester of japanese
it did not work in the slightest

anyway
wanna hang out?
since school starts next week

[frostythehitman]

sure
what did you have in mind

[livingdeadgirl]

do you like rollerskating and/or bowling?
not at the same time obviously
that would be a terrible combination

[frostythehitman]

rollerskatings fine
i'm not gonna be any good at bowling

[livingdeadgirl]

thats ok im terrible at it myself
if you are free on friday afternoon or so
then lets hit up the stardust! :D

[frostythehitman]

yeah okay
my sister's gotta come too though
i'm not supposed to go anywhere without her now

[ it's embarrassing, being chaperoned by your own little sister when you used to do the same for her, but James can't deny that he sees why his dad made the rule. ]

[livingdeadgirl]

your sister?
uhh ok im not opposed to that i guess
why though out of curiosity?

[is this one of those "you gotta incude your sister more" things? the Aiharas briefly tried making Ami's sister do that, and uh. it never went great.

i mean granted James and Ami are much better role models and James's sister is like the same age as her but still]

[frostythehitman]

chaperoning

[ Ami doesn't need to know that it's actually his sister chaperoning him. ]

[livingdeadgirl]

[that isnt really a satisfactory answer buuut she doesn't want to push, so]

alrighty then
anyway 2:00 sound good?

[frostythehitman]

you got it
