[ The video turns on when paws stamp on it and the feed blurs when blue cotton and brown fuzzy felt drag along it. The voice sounds kind of softer than it would before. Bucky's voice - but quieter. Muffled maybe. ] Crepe, Crepe.

[ She's got something caught in her teeth, a bear by the looks of it, and she pulls it up to the couch and nuzzles at it with her noise. Paws pin it down and she lays her head on its stomach. ]

Okay, that's better. Now, stop dragging me 'round the place, okay kid?



(( ooc: actual teddy bear bucky barnes. because a-babies vs. x-babies made my heart giddy and I couldn't resist. ))

[ He's got over the fact he clearly hasn't seen everything yet, even if he has seen some pretty weird things, but this is unnerving. ]

You're looking kinda cute and cuddle there, Barnes.

[ Crepe hears Clint's voice and picks Bucky up by the ears, wagging her tail. ]

Don't excite her.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

If that's what she calls excitement, you need to get her out more.

[ But it's obvious he's trying not to laugh at this development. ]

[ Video ]

[ Crepe drags him off the couch with ease, coming to snuffle against the phone, which means Bucky's soft little bear voice is louder. ]

If she chews my ear off, I'm coming after you.

[ Grr. :C ]

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Shaking in my boots. [ Okay, now he's outright chuckling.

Leaning into the screen, he puts on the voice he uses in secret (usually) that he saves for dogs. ] You're not gonna chew his ear off, are you, Crepe? No, 'course you're not, you're a good girl.

[ Tail thumping against the coffee table leg. ]

She thinks I'm her puppy. [ Sad panda Bucky. ] I've already been dragged under the couch.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Hope you vacuum under there, 'cause if it's anything like mine, that's an experience that'll stick with you.

[ He taps at the screen when a wet nose pushes up against it, which clearly just makes her wag her tail harder. ] If you ask me, she knows you're off limits. She would've ripped you open by now.

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

I don't know, I can't see myself. [ He is a bear who can't move, Clint. Christ. ]

M'trying not to think about that bit, buddy.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

[ If he weren't enjoying this, Bucky, he might be sorry about it. ]

You do have a little something there. [ He's pointing at his own neck to show where, not that it'll be that much help. ] If I hear a rip, I'll know what's going on. No one else around?

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Steve's at work. [ And doesn't know yet. ] It's just me and Crepe. I fell asleep on the sofa.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

That's one way to wake up.

[ Credit to him, he sounds a bit more sympathetic now. ] Need me to swing by, put you up somewhere too high for her to reach?

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

She'd probably spent the time crying.

[ And even as a bear, Crepe's pretty much his baby. ] Besides, I can't hit you like this. [ NO TRUST, CLINT. ]

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Could bring Fury over, let them have a play date while you wait out the curse.

[ Not that he wants your company or anything, Bucky. ]

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

You must really want out of the house, huh?

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Whoever told you that is lying.

[ He's so convincing. ] Ever think I just wanna see this without the camera getting in the way? Take a few pictures, tweet about it.

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

I don't even know what that means, Barton.

[ What the hell is tweeting? ] You can come over if you want.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

[ He sighs, all put out. ] My bad. You '40s boys can never truly appreciate the humour with reference to anything beyond the Wizard of Oz.

[ He shrugs, visible on screen, and acts like he doesn't care when he really sort of maybe does. ] Sure. Steve'd kill me if I saw all this and did nothing to stop it.

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

It was a good movie. [ And a way to find guys who were out for a good time, he supposes. But he doesn't need that anymore. Not with Steve now. ]

Don't forget to bring Fury.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Except the flying monkeys, right? 'Cause they even freaked me out.

[ Holding up the lead as he rummages around. ] Never leave this guy behind.

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Don't mention the flying monkeys.

[ Crepe suddenly takes this as invitation to drag him by the ear again .] Okay, seriously, come over right now.

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Received and understood.

[ Laughing as the feed cuts out, but not before he gets in a quick. ] On my way.

[ Video ]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ By the time Clint gets there, Crepe is trying to pull Bucky through the bedroom door by his foot. ]

[ Action ]

[bettercallit]

[ As much as it pains him, Clint lets himself into the apartment via the front door, Fury at his side, and just in time to see Crepe sneaking away. ]

Crepe, come here, girl, look who I brought you.

[ Action ]

[yourbestguysgun]

Oh thank christ.

[ Crepe bounds over to Clint and Fury, leaving the Bucky bear face down on the floor. ]

[ Action ]

[bettercallit]

You in full working order?

[ Taking off Fury's lead, he guides them into another room, closes the door on them long enough to scoop up Bucky and admire his stitching. ]
