Remembering everything was both a blessing and a curse. He had all the memories of growing up with Stevie by his side, all the good memories that they'd shared. But he also remembered every atrocity he'd committed in the name of Hydra, and >
@mileslacunae "A few weeks" Bucky answered simply, trying not to feel guilty that he hadn't spoken to Stevie about this earlier. He knew she'd likely worried about him, but every time he went to pick up the phone to call he'd talked himself out of it. >
@ItsyBitsyBang_ < to add that he didn't want to see Steve, the fact he'd managed to pull off avoiding the man while he persistently tried to track him down should be evidence enough of that.
