possibly helpful?? hostage meme

[gingerfarts]

Some shit happens, one dumbfuck might need help getting outta dodge. Maybe another dumbfuck got special new led implants they want a refund for! Hopefully no one will crash their third plane in 50 years. Professionals might be rare let's be honest.

PROMPTS: (optional)
1 - MEDICAL ATTENTION.. You're bleeding, in pain and desperate, and you need medical attention. Right now. What will you do? Break into a private practice after hours? Find a darkened house or apartment with a convenient bathroom?
2 - SHELTER. The cops are after you. The temperature is dropping below -20. You're out in the middle of nowhere and you're starving. You don't have any options left - except for this.
3 - TRANSPORTATION. You need to get out of town. Fast. Can't buy a car, can't rent a car, can't take a bus - how do you leave?
4 - PROFESSIONAL SKILLS. You need a doctor. A lawyer. A pilot. A spy. And you know just the one. And you're going to get their help whether they want it or not.
5 - A HOSTAGE. You need a body to threaten. Maybe it's the President's daughter; maybe it's just someone off the street. Either way, it's leverage you're after. Maybe you'll turn them loose once you get to the border.
6 - FINISH THE CRIME. Get the manager who can open the bank vault. Or whatever else you need to commit your act of murder, sabotage and/or thievery.
7 - IT WAS AN ACCIDENT???? Fuck.
8 - CHOOSE YOUR OWN.

[Cue the arch of his brow. Just gonna hedge the subject away from the subject of his innocence which not only has little relevancy here but is not in question at all. It's a no brainer.]

You don't say. What, did you two have a spat? I guess this is what you call "taking a break".

[Kira doesn't even bother with a sigh. Just tips the can to his lips, lets the beer go down smooth. He fixes a steady gaze on Bucky, takes it all in before finally opening his mouth, a wry twist to the shape of his mouth.]

You certainly packed a lot of baggage for this vacation to Whinesville. That idiot let you get away, bullets aside. You idiots are made for each other. If that doesn't indicate something about you both then you're an even bigger idiot than you look.

[He waves his free hand, rolls a shoulder forward--] So go on and do the macho Rambo solo act. You'll see what I mean when he inevitably shows up, pleading with you. That's all there is to say.

[As far as Kira's concerned that is. When Bucky brings up this Hydra thing again he takes another, longer sip of his beer, expression unreadable. However behind that blank gaze his mind is turning over the subject. It doesn't take a genius to figure out this organization is dangerous to everyone that comes into contact with it. It's best not to get involved with that.]

No, I don't. I like the one about the Greek legend better.
