WHAT ice skating
WHERE the lake
WHEN 87

[It's AWFULLY chilly today, and but Tidy Living Apartments has provided a STAY WARM AND WELL care package containing:

- 1 extra long scarf
- gloves that are just slightly too short for your fingers but you can use your phone with them
- a coat that fits fine as long as you don't button it up
- a hat of some kind but it will be a bit too large no matter what
- ice skates that mysteriously fit just right

Also the lake has frozen over.

you know what you must do]

I'm not real good at the whole wing man thing.

I noticed.

[she'll smile, though]

Luckily, I don't need one.

Lucky you.

I don't mean...

[what? That her and Dana aren't a thing?

that doesn't seem entirely honest. Bucky's moving slow all around, but the thought's crossed her mind too]

I like where things are now. If they go somewhere else I like that too.

Seems like a good way to go about it.

[There's a pause, like he's uncertain on something but since they're talking about Dana...]

I met someone too. I think you'd like him.

Someone else?

[Steve... didn't you already have to talk to your boyfriend about Bucky?]

[he had that talk, that talk is done!]

Yeah. His name's Vasily. White hair, bright yellow eyes. You might have seen him around.

Maybe. That wouldn't stand out around here as much as you'd think.

So what's going on with Vasily?

[holds back on the urge to ask if he's Russian. Just. Given the name.]

[you know he hasn't asked, but he's blushing]

The same thing you've got with Dana, I think. Just, faster?

He's some kind of time traveler. Back where he's from he's living in his own past. I don't know what it is, but it's just easy to be around him. I like him.
