@BrokenxAsset “Yeah cause if it fell off and caused an accident that would suck and kinda look bad. Also motorcycles are kinda scary. The mirror is really sharp…”
He lists off all the reasons it would go wrong despite them already agreeing to take the car, shuffling after him.
“And birds.”
@BrokenxAsset “It’s like, a soccer mom thing. They’re actually really nice!”
He starts making sure everything is in his daily tote bag, double checking that he doesn’t forget anything by rifling through the bag.
“Isn’t the SUV better if we have bags? Cause what if we drop them on the bike?”
@BrokenxAsset Two places*!? Bob was ecstatic, scrambling to throw his mug in the dishwasher before grabbing his fleece, excited to even be brought along. It wasn’t often he got to go out and do just anything, much less seasonally.
it’s busy now but it won’t always be. you could probably even go into an early retirement right? then again, bucky is like 200 years old … im sorry though Lena.
( he quips his lips awkwardly and shakes his head )
not really. we had a class hamster though in first grade. tom.
Too busy, yes. My life isn’t fitting for a dog. I was away all the time and it wouldn’t be fair. Fanny’s with 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 people now.
( She’s sad about that, though. Maybe one day, she can still have a quieter life. )
What about you, you’ve had pets?
oh, that’s a cute name. and a cute dog breed. i think they’re all kinda cute but the little crusty ones have seen better days…
( he paused, having to figure out who she meant exactly- who else? always val )
why couldn’t you keep her? missions and stuff?
Fanny. ( Delivered casually, as though this is a normal name for a dog. ) She was an Akita. I got her after my sister died. But I had to give her up when I met 𝘩𝘦𝘳.
( Resentment dripping from tone when referencing Valentina. )
( he sits atop the stool, leaning towards her as she speaks about it, a bittersweet feeling lingering in the air )
what kinda dog was she? what was her name?
Not a puppy.
( Her shoulders droop a little once she’s sat up on one of the stools. There’s a pause as she takes a sip of her coffee from her own silly straw. )
I adopted a dog. She was very cute— you’d have liked her.
@BrokenxAsset He throws back the rest of his tea, chugging it before nodding his head fervently.
“If you say Spirit Halloween I am gonna lose my mind! I love spirit Halloween. And then after, we gotta get Mexican food. It’s the only way.”
@BrokenxAsset Bucky is one of the members he isn’t so close to, but he’s a comforting force, and Bob doesn’t feel inherently judged in his presence.
“Oh, that’s great then. Keep that.”
He smacks his hands against the counter with an immediate answer.
“Skeletons and pumpkins! Together.”
