Greetings Sergeant Barnes
I am contacting you to inform you
I require your cybernetic arm
BUCKY BARNES
…Excuse me?
Is that some kind of threat?
NEBULA
I am prepared to barter a trade of equivalent value
BUCKY BARNES
Uh ok…
Like for your arm?
NEBULA
I can offer assassination services for the high-value target of your choice
BUCKY BARNES
Uh no thanks not necessary
Look I've been using a new one lately
You can just have the old one if you want
NEBULA
You would give it for nothing?
Because I am a highly effective agent
Your enemies would not escape me
BUCKY BARNES
I'm good on assassinations for one lifetime
Why do you want it so bad anyway
NEBULA
It is critical mission of extreme importance
It is called Christmas
BUCKY BARNES
…Ok then
Merry Christmas?
NEBULA
And to you Sergeant Barnes
