[It's not the same as before where he'd woken up with a light breeze on his skin causing his too-long hair to dance across his forehead, and the sweet, dry smell of fruit trees. No, it's blue light and too much wind. There's nothing normal about that. The communication device strapped to his hand is cold. Bucky's used to not remembering things, but the long hall and unfamiliar faces tell him something's off. There's a million explanations going through his mind and none of them make any sense except one and he doesn't want to think about that.

Bucky goes through the motions. Steels himself while he's checked out. Signs the contract. Lets someone take him to his room and then walks the halls. Now back in his room, he clicks on the MID. His face is half-hidden and voice low. He wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't necessary. He's combed every inch of this goddamn ship and he can't find Steve anywhere.]

I'm looking for someone. Tall. Blond. Loves America.

[It's risky to put it out there. He doesn't know these people and trust isn't something he gives easily. But he needs to find someone he remembers. Someone from Wonderland. Someone from back home. Everything is muddled and this place looks like something his mind has made up.]

His name's Steve.

[There's a brief pause.]

If someone could tell me what the hell's going on here, I'd appreciate it.

[The feed cuts off.]

[ooc: this bucky is a crau from another game. he thinks that he never left his previous game world and that it is during an 'event'. i'm so sorry if he confuses anyone.]

[Peggy knows for a fact Bucky was there almost immediately after Steve woke from cryo. She knew about it just that quickly too. So why was he acting like he didn't know where Steve was? She scans her MID, reading the responses that had already shown up, realizing soon enough that the MID this message was coming from wasn't the same one. So this wasn't Bucky. Or it was, apparently, just another him? As if all the facetwins around here wasn't confusing enough.]

He's here, but I'm sure you're already aware of that. [She knows Steve has already reached out to him. And she's not a big fan of texting, but considering she was affected by the blasted blessing on the Mini Colony, she figured it would be easier than trying to explain why she's currently an alien.]

Are you alright, James?

Agent Carter.

[Bucky doesn't know what to expect of this place. This certainly wasn't someone he'd think he'd come across. When he's from he doesn't even know if she's alive.]

I dunno, but call me Bucky. It's been a long time.

[ooc: going with he doesn't know about her funeral cause he was laying low, but i can totally change it.]

Then please, call me Peggy. [She knows the feeling. It had been such an adjustment when she first arrived. Even if he is from a more modern time, it still wouldn't be easy. Especially since there were two of him now.]

It has been. Especially if you're from anytime close to the same as Steve. [Okay, so technically she's seen the other Bucky. But that was just a technicality. As for the time he comes from... She can't help but wonder if he's further ahead than his counterpart. He seemed more... stable, than the other, when he first arrived.]

Peggy, then.

[Time, though, he was realizing was a lot more complicated here than it had any right to be.]

I'm from farther ahead. Than both of them. [His other self and Steve.] A lot farther. Do you know about me?

[Not Bucky, but the soldier.]

About the Winter Soldier? Yes. Steve told me everything.

[It hadn't taken her long to get it out of Steve, after she ran into the other Bucky all those months ago. It had felt like seeing a ghost. Everyone had been so sure he was dead. But the same had been said about Steve. Sometimes it still felt unbelievable, to know they were alive and would be well one day.]

I'm so sorry you had to go through all that. [If she had known-- But she didn't, she wouldn't, just like with Steve. Even with SHIELD at her hands, she had been powerless to save them. She hated so much that her future self would have to wait so long to know her friends had been out there the whole time.]
