[There's a rustling noise on the voicemail, with a question of "Like this?" followed by the following for the voicemail.]

Hi, this is uh, Bucky. Leave a message if you need me I guess?

[And further rustling, followed by "Why do I need to do-?" before it cuts off.]

Comments

[notapancake]

And that's okay, sometimes you just want to do nothing. But you should try to find something to catch your interest.

[A beat and...]

Also people to talk to, so you have Lore to buy things with.

[Not that he minds the occasional talks he has had with Bucky, but variety is the spice of life.]

[buckybbarnes]

Yes. It...would be better to be...self-sufficient, rather than relying on you.

[He considered for a long moment, frowning.]

How would one learn what...catches their interest?

[notapancake]

Hm.

[He doesn't mind Bucky relying on him? It's kind of, familiar? Not that he's going to voice that.]

Oh, well there's a lot of ways? You can go out and like, hm...

[Oh, okay. Maybe he doesn't have an answer for that.]

[buckybbarnes]

[For what it was worth, Bucky seemed fine to accept that as an answer.]

I...have not really been...out, to speak. It has not occurred to me that it was...an option?

[notapancake]

Well, there are a lot of options? Going outside is just one.

[As to others, well...]

There's reading books, that's something to do if you don't want to go outside?

[buckybbarnes]

Where does one get books to read?

[He definitely hasn't been being nosy, if he hasn't figured out there's books in the apartment. At least there's that.]

[notapancake]

There are libraries... I think Leo has some books around here, but I don't know which ones he's done with.

[Or if Leo took them with him.]

[buckybbarnes]

Libraries...that does sound like something familiar.

[He seemed to be thinking that over, before he questioned again.]

What would you do, if you had to choose anything for the first time ever?

[notapancake]

Oh um... Depends? Do I still know like, a vague idea of the thing or is it a complete slate clean situation?

[Yes, this is the important detail and will decide what he'd choose.]
