Can we all take a moment to admire the fact that 2801 technology still supports emoji functionality? 🤩 👍 🕷 💁 🩰 💫 🍆 🧊 💅 👁‍🗨 🎯 🤡 🔋 🐈 💲 🧙‍♀️ 🐦💋 🐜 👽 🕶 ⚡ 🕵🏻‍♀️ 💦 💦 💦

It seems like they're pretty set on calling us 'Hatchlings', so... hello, fellow Hatchlings, I'd like to play a game.

Two truths and a lie. I'll start.

  ① Starbucks makes the best lattes.
  ② I've never watched All Dogs Go To Heaven all the way through.
  ③ My birthdate is May 21st. What year? Every year. 😉😉😉 But my party in 2018 was 🔥🔥🔥.

does that mean you're the one that has joint custody of the brain cell

[unclesam]

yep we're co parenting. congrats. you realize Nat is the only one of us with actualsense right?

[freightcars]

Yup
I'm gonna have gray hair by the time we make it off this damn planet

[unclesam]

gray - man how do you set yourself up so well for a white wolf joke and then still miss the mark? I swear I gotta do all the heavy lifting around here.

[freightcars]

Might be less white wolf more silver fox after that

what even has this conversation become

[unclesam]

more of a silver back. I've seen you prancing and posturing.

who knows anymore rly

[freightcars]

Like a gorilla, or is that like a thing? I don't have urban dictionary here.

( Now you know his dark secret — he's not completely caught up to pop culture, he crutches on urban dictionary and google more than he wants to admit. Could be nothing, could be a societally established joke. Siver back sounds a little too precarious, could go either way. )

[unclesam]

urban dictionary.
jesus, bucky, you live dangerously.

I mean the other thing of course.

[ Sam 100% means a gorilla. ]

[freightcars]

Had to ask
You never know

[unclesam]

so what do you think it means?

[freightcars]

I wasn't gonna ask
But if I had to guess based on context
Kind of like peacocking, but for angry assholes with metal arms

[unclesam]

your words, not mine. I did actually mean less courting and more ape posturing.
You don't get to peacock, you're a grown man who dresses like a teen heartthrob.

[freightcars]

Yeah no, that's what I meant. Posturing, not dating. That is just
not anywhere near my brain right now



like a what
I mean, I'm familiar with the term
it's just
shirts

[unclesam]

[ Bucky can thank every power that be in the universe that Sam doesn't know about his online dating attempts. Or the tiger pictures. ]

it's the everything. the tiny shirts and tight pants and the black on black on borderline grey or navy on black. oh and the scowling. you're like the troubled bad boy love interest in a dystopian young adult novel.

it's almost a compliment, you should take it.

[freightcars]

Oh
so you're in love with me
suddenly everything makes so much sense

[unclesam]

oh please
you could never pull an ass like mine

[freightcars]

You're probably right, I'll call off the wedding.

[unclesam]

oh you were confident in your proposal, weren't you?

[freightcars]

There was a dance number and everything

[unclesam]

you still think you got moves? charmingly old-fashioned or shockingly modern?

[freightcars]

I've seen how people dance these days. Half the time the guy just stands there. I got moves ten times better than that, old fashioned or not.

[unclesam]

hey, ain't arguing with that. never did the kinda dancing you guys did, but I took some modern dance classes for the exo falcon project.
but you should just commit to the bit and dance the robot, honestly.

[freightcars]

because of the arm
hilarious
never gets old

1/2

[unclesam]

not for me it doesn't

2/2

[unclesam]

see that one's funny 'cause of how old you are.
