Bucky sees Steve and he does this shit
and then this is Bucky with Tony
i’ll do you one better:
STEPH IM CRYING
You all know what I’m about to do
“I don’t… think that did what he wanted it to do.“ Tony frowned, tilting his head to the side.
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?” Steve demanded.
Tony glanced down at the man, the… whatever the hell he was, who was a double agent. “Rogers, he clearly did something to Barnes, but I don’t think that-” Tony gestured to Bucky- “was his intended outcome!”
“Well, what was?” Steve slammed a hand down on the table the man was handcuffed to. “What. Was?”
The man looked up with a hard glare. “To see an empire fall.”
Tony stared at Bucky who was… well, Tony didn’t really know what he was doing. Bucky was walking around, making weird arm motions, giving everyone the crazy eye. No agent seemed to be brave enough to approach him. “It’s like you sent him into factory reset mode.”
“So you were responsible,” T’Challa cut in. “For my father’s death?”
The man tilted his chin up. “I’m sorry about your father. He was a casualty caught in the crossfire of a different war.” The man glared at Tony and Steve. “Much like my family was.”
“What’s this about?” Sam folded his arms. “What’s your game, man?”
“Their war,” He continued to stare at Tony and Steve, “killed my family. Innocent lives. Sokovia. Do you remember them? Can you list the name of every innocent civilian you killed that day?” He shook his head. “I am Baron Zemo. My family was killed, by you. I had hoped to tear yours apart in return. I had hoped I’d get the missing piece to my puzzle from him,” Zemo looked at Bucky, “but I was not expecting this.”
“Missing piece?” Tony shook his head. “What missing piece?”
Steve cleared his throat. “You know, don’t you?” He asked Zemo. “You know The Winter Soldier…” Steve took a deep breath. “You know The Winter Soldier killed Howard and Maria Stark.”
“What?” Tony hissed, head filling with static.
Steve faced him. “I’m sorry, Tony. I didn’t- I didn’t know how to tell you.”
Zemo nodded. “I wanted to use that against you. To make empires fall.”
Tony took a long, deep breath. “Okay Rogers, I’m royally pissed at you, but I’m gonna hold it in, so we can properly deal with him.”
“Okay.” Steve nodded. “Okay. We can… talk about this later, I promise. Sam, can you watch Zemo?” The ‘and T’Challa’ part went unsaid. Tony had been side eye-ing the furious king the entire conversation, making sure he didn’t spaz.
Sam nodded.
Steve and Tony walked over to where Bucky was sitting on a table, chair on his head, glaring at terrified agents.
“Sir,” One agent walked over to Tony. “We don’t know what to do, he’s unstable and I think he managed to grab a gun-”
“Yeah, we’ll handle it.” Tony patted the agent on the back thoughtlessly.
“Buck,” Steve called out. “Come on, let us help you. Give us a hand, here.”
Bucky promptly took off his left arm and threw it at Steve. Tony watched the metal arm clatter to the ground at Steve’s feet and couldn’t hold back a snort. At least this Bucky Barnes had a sense of humour.
“Who goes there?” Bucky hissed in perfect Russian, accent and all. He pulled out his gun. “Friend? Or foe?”
Oh dear god. If Tony didn’t get killed by The fucking Winter Soldier, he was going to die laughing his ass off.
“Something in between, I think,” Tony answered in Russian.
Bucky narrowed his eyes, taking the chair off his head to creep over towards Tony with awkward steps. He was… sliding across the floor, almost, gun still trained on Tony. It was taking every ounce of willpower to keep Tony from losing his fucking mind.
“I don’t want to hurt you,” Tony promised. “Let me help you.”
Bucky tilted his head to the side, looking Tony up and down. “Plums?”
Tony wasn’t sure he’d heard Bucky right. “Plums? What?”
“Plums?” Bucky repeated as if saying it again would have it make more sense.
“Sure.” Tony gave a slow nod. “I can get you… plums. All the plums you want.”
Bucky nodded and lowered his gun, snatching his arm from the ground to reattach it. He grabbed Tony by the waist just as quickly, hugging him close.
“Hey!” Steve jumped forward, ready for a fight.
Bucky snarled and threw Tony over his shoulder, making a run for it. “He’s mine!” Bucky howled.
Tony couldn’t hold back his laughter. He was in for a ride.
