In which Bucky is draged out kicking and screaming

[originalsidekick]

Look, you're a doll and all for picking me up and I'll give you credit for the amount of canon review you've done for yours truly but just between you and me? I think you're going to get in over your head.

But seeing as how the proverbial cat is outta the bag hows about you get to it and find a nice game for me. I've seen all the terrible things you do to your other charas on Bakerstreet I'd just as soon skip all that mess. It's kinda lonely being the only Invader around in your headspace yanno. I need a Steve and a Toro. Hell, at this point even a damned Subby would be nice to play off of. Find me some more Invaders out there to pal around with otherwise I'm gonna get bored real quick and you wouldn't want that now would you? Criminy, I'm a man of action for crying out loud.

So get to it, toots, and I'm sure we'll get along fine. [Smiles.]

Well, I'll be damned.

[originalsidekick]

[Suspicious look.] And what's that supposed to mean exactly?

[theboywonder]

Original sidekick, huh?

[originalsidekick]

Compared to all the other 'Buckys' out there, sure. But with a name like 'theboywonder' I wouldn't be castin' any stones, pal.

[theboywonder]

Hey, at least I've got a codename.

[originalsidekick]

Oh, yeah. Robin. I'm sure the bad guys just quake with terror when they hear that. [Have a shit eating grin, Dick.]

[kneecaptain]

Nothing.

Don't worry about it.

[theboywonder]

Hey, being the Sensational Character Find of 1940 isn't easy business, Bucky.

[originalsidekick]

Riiight. Lemme guess, the whole of the internet isn't big enough for the two of us? [Or your ego, Buck?]

[originalsidekick]

Is that supposed to impress me? Because yanno...kinda underwhelmed here.[Shrug.]

[theboywonder]

It's okay, you can admit the rest of you have been living in my shadow this whole time. I won't tell anyone. [He's teasing.]

[kneecaptain]

What? No. [This is confusing.]

[originalsidekick]

Nah, see me and Steve have a much better, and might I say healthier relationship than you an' Bruce. So really, you're just the outdated model whereas yours truly is the newer, more interesting character models.

[originalsidekick]

Then what's the problem here, pal? You're actin' like me showing up is something bad. [Over sensitive much? Or maybe he just didn't like seeing what the future held for him?]

[theboywonder]

And which one of us has been in more movies, TV shows and like, every other form of media?

So much fail

[originalsidekick]

Are we really going to go there? Three words, pal. Batman and Robin. I wouldn't exactly be crowin' from the rooftops about that. Or that 60's tv show for that matter. How was it being the poster boy from NAMBLA for all those years exactly? [Bucky's grin sharpened just a little.]

Haha nw!

[theboywonder]

Awesome. I mean, I could do without Batman and Robin, but I'm pretty sure even the people who made it wish they could forget about it.

[originalsidekick]

I'm pretty sure everyone wishes they could forget about that.

[theboywonder]

Tell me about it.

So, where's your mun thinking of sending you?

[originalsidekick]

Dunno yet, they kept putting off moving to dreamwidth for months and now I have no freakin' idea where they're gonna be sticking me. She ain't exactly the most....motivated of mundanes. I blame it on the general laziness of their generation personally.

[theboywonder]

Aw, come on, old timer, they're not that bad.

[originalsidekick]

I dunno about your mun but mine sure as heck is that bad. Criminy, it's ridiculous. I've been sitting in their headspace for months just gatherin' dust.

[theboywonder]

I'm the favorite, I get to do pretty much whatever. Which, you know. Has its pluses and minuses.

[originalsidekick]

Yeah, I'm hopin' if I make enough noise and ruckus my mun'll capitulate to my demands for more icons. Jeeze Louis I dunno how people do it with just 15. But apparently I gotta prove myself to the mun or something. I think she's just stingy.

[theboywonder]

I'm pretty sure you'll do just fine. You are pretty loud.
