#11-[Action]

[blue_sniper]

[Bucky is in his usual spot in the lobby he sits in, people watching and relaxing in general. After everything that has happened in the past few weeks, he needed some relaxation. And if he went up to the roof, he's pretty sure Steve might try to drag him back down. So, here he is, sitting out in the open in the lobby. Of course, what he doesn't know is that he's on a loss, and the next time someone tries to ask him a question, he'll be compelled to answer them, no matter what it is and get really angry of at the Castle. But right now he's in a good mood.]


[ooc: Loss start! Feel free to approach and ask questions.]

Comments

[peeta_bread]

[Peeta had thoughts of going outside, but when he sees Bucky, he wanders over.]

Hey. What's up?

[blue_sniper]

I'm trying to relax because my life has been crazy lately. [A beat. Why did he say that?] ...Nothing much, actually.

[peeta_bread]

Well, that's understandable. [He pulls up a chair and sits.]

I'm teaching Triela how to paint. And I've been continuing my lessons with Vanyel.

[He flexes his arm with a grin.] What do you think? Do I look any stronger to you?

[He actually does have some muscled arms, but Vanyel's exercises have been focusing on Peeta's legs.]

[blue_sniper]

Not really. I doubt you're much stronger than me, and really, I'm not actually that strong. [...Maybe he should stop talking. Or try to distract him.]

Haven't had any trouble with that girl, have you?

[peeta_bread]

[He frowns. What? He can lift 100 lb sacks of flour. Isn't that strong? He looks a little bewildered before brushing it off and answering his question.]

With Clove? Nah, not so far. She started talking to me over the journal, though. I didn't like it.

Action!

[wizard_redfive]

[Yes, the lobby is very relaxing isn't it?

Little does Bucky know there is a certain someone sneaking up behind his chair, being extra careful not to make a sound. Preparing to ambush in 3, 2, 1...]

[blue_sniper]

[Bucky actually doesn't suspect anything because Dair's pretty quiet. he's just minding his own business, not even aware that he's about to get ambushed.]

[wizard_redfive]

[Hehehehe >:3

Suddenly, Dairine leaps out, jumping onto the couch (or chair?) as she tackles him!]

En garde!

[blue_sniper]

Argh! [He grabs her as she jumps on him and startles him.] Dair, what the hell are you doing?

[wizard_redfive]

What does it look like? [Dairine pushes him playfully.]

[i_got_this]

[And here is a purple-clad Freelancer stalking through lobby on her way to sulk somewhere.]

[She sees Bucky's good mood and it offends her bad one.] What.

[blue_sniper]

Nothing. [He's just minding his own business.]

[i_got_this]

Yeah, well you don't have to look so happy about it.

[blue_sniper]

And you didn't have to stop either. [You're the one who started this conversation.]

[i_got_this]

Well ... maybe I want to. [Because sulking isn't as much fun as whining to someone else. She plops down on a couch, just watching him for a moment, and then pops her helmet off and sort of tosses it onto a nearby chair.]

You sound familiar.

[signedlefthanded]

[She's just going to blink at him when she sees him. She was coming from the library with a stack of books up to her nose.] You look happy.

[blue_sniper]

I was happy. Until I realized I'm on a loss again. [Now he's just slightly annoyed but trying not to let it ruin his day.]

[signedlefthanded]

I'm glad I'm not fourteen any more. [She looked him over.] What's wrong?

[blue_sniper]

I'm on a truth loss and I have to answer every question anybody asks truthfully and I'm pretty mad about it. [He blinks.] Don't ask questions, if you can help it.

[signedlefthanded]

[She tilts her head.] Why don't you want to answer questions?

[A bit too late.]

Sorry.

[valuedstrength]

[Guess who is done being a princess? This guy. Let's be vague about whatever happened to him aside from the fact the plot is over and he's awake!! Anyways he's in the lobby since hey it's right by that job he hasn't been to on account of the magical princess coma so he should check in and see how everyone is and hi Bucky.]

Bucky. [Awkward nod that screams don't ask what he's been up to.] How have you been?

[blue_sniper]

I'm been fine until a few hours ago. [Oh, like that wasn't suspicious at all. Thank you, Castle.]

Do me a favor Steve, and don't ask any questions.

[valuedstrength]

What happened a few hours ago? [Oh wait he can't ask questions!] Uh- sorry. Can I retract that?

[Wait he did it again... yeah he's just shutting up.]

[blue_sniper]

I found out I'm on a truth loss and have to answer every single question I'm asked truthfully. And no, you can't take that question back since I already answered it.

...Got any more questions?

[valuedstrength]

None that I can think of right now. [This is uncomfortable.] I'll try not to ask anything since it doesn't seem fair.
