Bucky thought it over. "I don't know what I think yet," he said finally, then shrugged. "I got nothin' to lose, right?" He bit his lip, then said, "Stevie, how long can you stay?"

"But what if –"

"The Avengers are gonna have to do without me for a while," Steve said flatly.

Bucky nodded, relieved, and they continued on, until Steve looked behind them and said, "Hey, is that goat following us?"
