WHO: Bucky!Cap (FINALLY!)
WHERE: Medical bay on the Agrii ship (closed to Steve first, then anyone who wants to visit him later); on the network
WHAT: WAKING UP and some apparent brain fog? Hm, what's up with that...
WHEN: Return journey (current)
WARNINGS: N/A, will mark any threads as necessary

In the med bay (action/spam):
[Bucky wakes up slowly. Groggily. Like he's been put under and getting back to wakefulness is a slow, struggling slow through molasses. Everything feels heavy and his head is pounding halfheartedly as his eyes finally, finally struggle open and -

Where the fuck is he?

He jolts in the bed he's in, still feeling like he's been hit in the head with a sledgehammer but also like he's just been hit with a shot of pure adrenaline. Waking up confused, groggy, and with no idea of where he is is never ideal.]

Later, over the network:
[It's a little while after waking up that he actually gets on the network to try to catch up. But boy howdy, when he does…

You know what? He gives up about five minutes in and just clicks the video on.]

Okay. Somebody want to tell me what the ever-loving hell I just missed?

[Bucky sighs.] Isn't that how it always goes. You'd think alien civilizations with spaceships and shit would have more answers than questions, but apparently you'd be wrong.

Everyone make it through okay, at least?

I'm not so sure even the Agrii know what they're involved in. There's too many unknowns in general, but after all this, it feels like it's all been staged by some other party.

Yeah, thankfully. Only a few injuries. You and Cloud were the main concerns given the state we found you both in.

Yeah, it really does reek of that, huh.

Wait - is he okay?

It really does.

[He frowns.]

...haven't gotten any updates from or regarding him. He's been out, same as you.

How're you feeling?

Kinda like my head's still stuffed with cotton, honestly.

It's not a great feeling, but I'm pretty sure it could be worse.

[Especially given what he knows about other versions of himself.]

Getting really sick of being a lab rat, though, if I'm honest.

Can't say I blame you.

I don't like that someone can just snatch us away and we don't know for sure if someone's sent back where they're supposed to be or stuck somewhere worse.

[Bucky just nods. You pretty much hit the nail on the head.]

Y'know, as much as I'm against shit like trackers... we kinda need shit like trackers.

It's a thought. I don't know how much more reliable trackers would be, but maybe we can put something together.

I don't know, either. It just feels like doing something, and that feels better than sitting around and letting shit happen, you know?

No, I get that. And I completely agree with you. And any way we can up our chances of being able to keep better track of each other so we don't know until after the fact would help.

Yeah, exactly. I know it ain't my wheelhouse, but I feel like we've got enough people who know tech here to figure something out.

Otherwise I guess we implement the buddy system.

I'll bring it up with Tony and Reeve- see if we can figure something out. Not that a buddy system isn't a bad idea either. At least it can be implemented sooner than the other, and it's not like they'll interfere with each other.

Yeah. In my line of work, you learn to have backups for your backups, even if everything eventually goes to shit.

[He sighs.]

At least things seem calm right now. You think Temba's gonna be in one piece when we get back?

[Cal nods.]

...I hope so. At this point I figure it's best to be prepared for anything.
