"Go. Go! Take this journal and write down everything you can remember. It will help, I promise you."

"Princess--"

"Do not argue. Find somewhere quiet, where you won't be bothered."

"The kids aren't a bother."

"They are also not quiet."

It's been a long time since he's been here, enough that if pressed he couldn't actually say how long. He hadn't exactly meant to come, either, but he'd been thinking about finding somewhere out of the way when he walked out of Shuri's lab, and there's no question that Milliways fits that description better than anywhere else.

About ten minutes later, Bucky Barnes is settled in at one of the quieter booths in the back, the journal open in front of him. (A close observer might notice that each page is subtly embossed with the logo of the Wakandan Design Group.)

He's holding a pen in his right hand and tapping it against the blank page. From time to time he sets down the pen and picks up the cup of coffee waiting beside him instead. A swallow or two later, he repeats the process, swapping cup for pen.

His left hand is immaterial to the whole process, as it's entirely absent. A series of gauze bandages are barely visible under the collar of his shirt, and his left sleeve is neatly pinned shut over where his arm used to be.

"So, this guy was gonna set you off to go, what, kill Captain America and all the Avengers? That's a shit plan." In so many ways. That would never work.

Peter narrows his eyes, looking at Bucky across the table. "What was he wanting to know?"

"What was that going to get him? Like - what was his whole motivation? Because this is kind of a convoluted plan."

He frowns across the table. "So, let me get this straight - his family died, so to avenge them..." the irony isn't lost here, "...he was going to - activate your old programming, get you to do... something... so the Avengers would sever and destroy each other?" He scratches at his head. "That's doomed to fail even if Tony is pissed off." He's obviously flustered if he isn't calling him 'Mr. Stark'.

"They did what?" His face is gonna get stuck in a frown and that's not very Peter-like. "What's the 'Raft'?"

A little bit of that grin comes back though. "You look like you're doing pretty good too," he says.

"Why do they need a prison for the heroes?" Since it sounds like what they've built. Sure, they'd need a place to possibly hold bad guys with powers, but they shouldn't be putting the heroes in there. That sounds like a bad plan.

Shifting to a different topic, he nods toward the missing arm. "Are you gonna get a new arm? Or go like this?"

"Who the hell is Ross?" It's just a last name, it doesn't mean a lot. He'd recognize the full name of the Secretary of State. "And what does he know? Was he there? In the field?" Someone may be a little protective of the group of people who saved New York, even if he was in a fight against some of them.

"I do think the metal one is pretty cool. But, anyway - what are you not-writing?"

"He sounds like it. I already don't like him."

He nods. "Does this mean you don't remember anything or the things you remember you don't want to?"

"Probably doesn't matter. Just make bullet points. Notes. If you wanna elaborate, do that later." Science nerd - notes first, more stuff later.

He grins. "Sure. Sometimes just getting the stuff out of your head is the important part."

He glances across the room, then back to Bucky. "Looks like I can still leave if I want."

"Yeah? I guess. Though, I guess it would depend on how long you're stuck."
