Why might he talk to me?

[He's not particularly conducive to conversations even with people he knows well, strangers doubly so.]

i was talking to him after i saw peters post
i got to telling him how at first i didnt trust you and we didnt get along in person
but that you were a good dude anyway
that you wanted to help us get out of the cells and you were trying to be better
and that i helped you when you lost your memories
i didnt tell him the personal details so dont worry
he doesnt know the big stuff
i just got kind of struck by things
how you didnt even run just because the anomaly looked like steve
and i guess it made me reflect on the rest
so he said he said you sounded like a good guy and he might talk to you if you came back

[He doesn't like the thought of being talked about by anyone here, even if the big details are kept secret, it tugs at his paranoia and suggests that his secrets could be being spread around without him having any way to control or stop it.]

Then you should tell him that I'm not a good guy. If you have a friend, the last thing you want to do is point them at me.

[Did he seriously just pull that? It pulls him away from the reminiscence, but not the way Bucky apparently wants.]

bluh bluh im a big bad super soldier i dont need anyone
im so cold and stoic that kindness freezes on contact with my pouty soldier aura
grump grump friends are for wimps and not running from steve doesnt mean anything to the contrary
deal with it bucky
youre getting a new friend and you can be grumpy buttholes together

I do need people. I wish I didn't, it would make it easier to keep everybody safe, but I do. Just because I like having people around, it doesn't change the fact that you shouldn't be directing people to me and I'm not a good person.

[Oh, that is about ninety percent more than he wanted to say.]

Don't argue with me, it's true. I know it, because I can't say anything else right now and I can't shut the hell up.

[mrcreamsicles]

[Well, not what he expected, but easy enough to understand.]

im not going to tell him not to talk to you because fuck that i already made up my mind
but ill let you go now so you can shut up
for the record
ive been there with the motor mouth feelings splurge and it sucks
take care of yourself bucky

[There's a few moments of nothing, and then.]

[mrcreamsicles]
