(Wahoo!)
Steve:
"Is it that obvious?" Steve asked, raising an eyebrow. Perhaps it was. Up until moments ago, he was the only one in the kitchen while a party was happening outside. And up until moments ago, he hadn't really thought about leaving. He glanced towards the door, following Percival's indication, and then gave a relenting nod. "It couldn't hurt," he agreed. "But I'm bringing my hot chocolate with me." He considered bringing his shield, as well, but perhaps that would be overkill. He wasn't going out to look for trouble or fight the bad guys. It was Christmas, and he was going to have a good time.
Steve grabbed his mug, warm to the touch, and then began to walk from the kitchen.
Bucky:
"Alright, so first I'm taking you to the lights," Bucky told her as they entered the cold, snowy world. He pulled his jacket tighter around his body with the hand that was free as he led Eveline down the walk towards his bike. He didn't have a car, so hopefully she wouldn't mind. Sure, it'd be cold. But, it would be better than walking. He pulled his keys from his jacket and flipped them in his hand with a jingle. "Ever rind a motorcycle?" he asked her, lifting an eyebrow.

Percival:
"Yes, it is," Percival said, with no excuse or pause in his response. He didn't beat around the bush, that was for sure. But that didn't stop him from following after Steve. He ignored the statement about a beverage and just continued walking. He could practically see Steve consider bringing his shield. A bit like a security blanket, to Percival's private opinion. But he didn't mention that either. It seemed to likely that there would be some conversation which he did not want to press.
The kitchen cleared, he continued following after Steve without any issues what so ever. In fact, he glanced around and saw a limitation on who was actually around. He almost chuckled. My my.
Well, at any rate, it was good to know that they weren't going to be stopped.
"Do lead the way," Percival said, voice polite and even.
Eveline:
Following after her current guide, Eveline seemed to look upon him and everything else with a quiet curiosity. This was certainly a bit more than she bargained for, but she didn't mind the suggestion.
"Motorcycle," she said, sounding slightly amused with the idea. "No. No, I can assure you I haven't. Am I about to gain this experience?"
She figured from Bucky's implications, she was. She hadn't been aware he'd had such a vehicle.

Cap:
Steve nodded, and he led the way, hot chocolate in hand. He stared straight ahead, taking slow sips from his drink. He didn't know what to say to the other man. Although, they'd both decided to go out, he didn't really know Percival, and he also wasn't good at small talk. He cleared his throat, grabbed his coat by the door, and then walked outside into the snowy world. "What do you usually do around these parts?" For once, he wasn't exactly the 'man with the plan'. "I haven't celebrated many modern holidays in a while." Not only had he been frozen in time, he'd also spent the past few years saving the world. There hadn't exactly been a lot of time for catching up on the things he'd missed out on.
Bucky:
It'd been a while since he'd been on a proper date. And, while he didn't consider this one, it was probably the closest he'd gotten to one in a very long time. Over the years, he hadn't even had time to think about things like that. And, more recently, it hadn't seemed to matter to him as much as it had to his younger self. But, most of the girls he'd gone out with probably wouldn't have agreed to a motorcycle ride in the blistery snow. He was thankful that Eveline hadn't backed out.
He grinned at her, a charming grin that he couldn't help, and he stuck the key in the ignition. When the bike purred to life, he swung his leg over and then held out his hand to help her. "You are most definitely going to gain this experience," he told her. "I promise it won't be as terrible as it sounds." Hopefully. He then handed her a helmet. "You'll get used to the wind in your face."

Percival:
"You assume I'm from these parts?" Percival said, sounding mildly amused. He glanced over at Steve. "You're Captain America ... I am curious how often you run into Canadians. As for what I've done in this area since I've gotten here?"
Percival seemed to have to consider that for a while, before finally responding with, "To my knowledge, I believe there are several museums? I wouldn't call myself the best when it came to ideas of entertainment. What did you do in non-modern holidays?"
He was curious, though the question sounded ever so slightly loaded. How it could be was up for a guess, but it still sounded like there could be doubt there.
Eveline:
Placing the helmet over her face, Eveline found herself frowning slightly. There was a slight pause in what she wanted to do, but then she let the frown drop again. She didn't think there was much that she could say in response. Did she even know what she would be experiencing? Considering how ... open this ride looked, she didn't think that she did. She hadn't tried it before either.
"Alright then. After you then."

Steve:
"I suppose I shouldn't assume anything of the sort," Steve said with a small chuckle as he pulled his jacket closer to his body and took a sip of his hot chocolate. "Many of us are either out of time or from outer space, and we haven't exactly had time to celebrate the holidays with everything that's happened..." His mind drifted, and he let out a sigh as they walked to the garage. They were here now to celebrate because things were going to get better. Things were better, at least for the time being. "As for how often I've run into Canadians, I don't have numbers. But, don't forget that I fought in the second world war, and I'm over ninety years old. I've met a lot of people from a lot of places." Another laugh.
He walked into the garage and grabbed the keys to a shiny black sedan. Something either Tony or Natasha would have driven. He unlocked it and walked over. "I spent a lot of holidays with Bucky," he said with a shrug. "We'd decorate his tree with his family, and we'd string corn and berries and try to stomach his grandma's terrible fruitcake. And then we'd watch the snow fall over the city. Other times there'd be fireworks or air shows over the military base. I remember falling asleep on his couch, and sometimes I'd catch his parents putting gifts under the tree. When we were older, Buck would drag me to some Christmas parties, but he always had more fun at those than me." He smiled fondly at the memory.
Steve then opened the driver's side to the car and held it open for a moment, leaning into the door so that he could speak to Percival. "I wouldn't mind a museum, but maybe we should do something a little old fashioned. Walk down the streets, watch the snow fall, look at all the decorated shops, and then get some fruit cake or something."
Bucky:
Although he couldn't see her expression anymore, he could feel her unease. "We'll be fine," he promised. And then he instructed her to hold onto his waist and then he kicked the bike into gear and they were off, motorcycle buzzing down the drive and into the snow. All he could hear now was the humming of the bike and the wind in his ears. He'd missed it. Feeling this alive. And, pretty soon, they'd be at the city's festival of lights and then they'd be dancing until midnight. Just like old times. Like all the times he'd dragged an un-willing Steve to be his wingman at Christmas parties over the years. All those times, too, he'd felt so alive. It was a shame they couldn't have invited his oldest friend to join them. For old times sake.

Percival:
There seemed to be a light of amusement in Percival's gaze just at the mention of these classical Christmas things. No, not just a light of amusement. One of memory too. As if this was somehow a part of his own experience. Then the expression was gone and he was looking off into the distance again, only seeming to go through the motions of opening the car door and entering the vehicle without much thought on the matter. He was mostly looking forward to seeing what Steve would do - where he would choose to go.
"I think that sounds very agreeable," he said. He looked slightly amused again, as if trying to think of how to respond to the rest of what Steve had said.
"You put a lot of stock into your age, don't you?" he asked. "Your way of handling the world. I do wonder ... why New York? I imagine there are plenty of places in America who have yet to reach an era as steadily ... technological ... as New York. Perhaps you would feel more at home there? A place you could grow up with the times?"
He glanced out the window again. "Though I will admit ... Christmas around here sounds like it would be quite special. I am perfectly willing to entertain it."
Eveline:
Eveline wasn't sure if the 'we'll be fine' was as reassuring as Bucky wanted it to be. But she was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and held on. This was, at least, something quite spectacular. Riding through the night without knowledge of exactly where Bucky would be bringing her.
She didn't try to talk. The wind would take her voice away if she did anything other than scream. So she didn't and instead kept a tight grip on her current companion, watching lights of thee building they'd just left move away from them.

Steve:
He put the car into drive and then he began rolling out of the garage and into the dark, snowy world. He thought of what Percival was saying as he stared out the window and at all the things passing them by. It took him a while to answer. "It's not my age that matters so much as the time that I come from," he decided at last. "I know that I'm basically 90 years old, but most of those years were spent frozen. Even so, I have more in common with 90 year olds because they're from the time that I was. Shared experience."
Steve let out a sigh, his grip tight on the steering wheel. "You and I look to be around the same age, but I grew up in a world that existed before you were even born. Things are just... different now," he added. "It's not bad different. It's just a lot to get used to." He grinned over at Percival, then, and let out a small chuckle. "All things considered, I think I'm doin' alright."
His chuckle then faded, and a sullen sigh escaped his lips. He focused his eyes back onto the road, seeing his memories flash all around him as they began to enter the New York town. "There really is nothing like it. New York. It's not the same as it used to be. But it'll always be home. My home. No matter how much it's changed."
After a brief pause, he continued, "We'll park along the street and walk from there. See what we can see."
Bucky:
Although he drove the speed limit, the motorcycle seemed a lot faster than a car, and it didn't take long for them to break out of the secluded area of the compound and find the town. He finally drew the motorcycle to a slow, and the loud humming of the bike stopped echoing around the serene, Christmas night. He could see the bright lights of the New York festival of lights shining in the darkness like twinkling stars, and he pulled the motorcycle to the side of the road. A moment later, he kicked the stand down and glanced back at Eveline, the Christmas lights like a halo around them.
"Alright, we're here," he told her. "You can let go now. Although, I wouldn't object if you held on for a little while longer," he added with a smirk, and then immediately realized he'd probably said the wrong thing. He pulled off his helmet, and his long hair swept around his face. "Too much?" he asked, lifting an eyebrow. "I swear I'm not flirting. It's just been a while since I've been out like this. You know, with a friend."
(Hmm... so should percival and steve walk by the festival of lights after they park and see bucky and eveline in there and then they all look at lights & then see thief running by or something? or should they see the thief first and then bump into eveline and bucky who also see the thief and go after the thief together? XD)

Percival: There was a single, tight smile from Percival as he continued to look out the window more than he looked at Steve. Steve was a man with a lot on his plate, that was for sure. Percival wished he could take a little off it. "You're attached to people," Percival said after a second. "While also missing people from your past. You lost a whole generation of what essentially amounts to family. And then you were displaced in time and culture. I think it would be foolish of me to say you weren't doing alright." He slowly pulled the door of the vehicle open. Then he glanced around at the outside. "Though that also doesn't mean you shouldn't find things in this time which wouldn't be in your time." He closed the door. "Have you seen anyone? A psychatrist, I mean? I would be surprised if there wasn't someone aroun the Avengers talk to." The New York Christmas air was nice. But for Percival, it was him who wasn't home. --- Eveline: Eveline did let go, though she noticed that Bucky was a lot more flustered than she expected. Maybe it had been a while since he had interactions with ... well ... people in general. "I didn't think you were," she assured. "Just being friendly." She glanced around and slowly breathed out. "It's interesting. I don't think I've ever been here." (I like the first option.  ) |

Steve:
Steve offered a smile, heavy with memories, and he dipped his head with a sigh as he closed the door to the car. They'd passed a Festival of Lights on the way, and he figured it'd be a good way to start their holiday festivities. He gripped his hot chocolate in his hands (it was still surprisingly hot) and he walked along the oddly bustling sidewalks in the direction of the lights. He could hear the faint sound of holiday music grow louder as they drew closer.
"That'd probably be good for me," Steve said, managing a chuckle. "But, no. I've never talked to anyone. Went to a support group with Sam, once. Thought about starting one of my own," he said, thinking back. It had never happened. There really hadn't been a lot of time. And, it was also hard to find people to talk to. People who really understood. "Buck's got a physiatrist," he added after a moment. "But, I think he only goes because he's forced to."
Steve took a sip of his hot chocolate, and then he glanced over at Percival for just a moment. "Enough about me. How do you like New York? Or the holidays?"
Bucky:
Bucky let out an uneasy laugh, hoping they could both just forget about that comment, and then he winked and took her hand. "Come on," he said, giving her hand a slight tug. "The lights are just ahead." He could hear the Christmas music and smell the freshly popped corn. Many things had changed over the years, but a good old fashioned festival of lights remained the same. Sure, the lights were more extravagant and the displays were brighter and fancier and the music different-- but, the essence of them was what mattered. Family, holiday spirit, and a good time.

(I really need something on my phone to tell me. Im horrible at checking things.. but being third shift- I have time to make replies while people are asleep.) (Also, saw Spider-Man: No-Way Home. Gotta say, love the ideas thats coming up in the movie *eyes*)|
(And also, I've been thinking about you folks a lot. I miss everyone ;v; )
Lyudmilla & Irinei-
Lyudmilla watched them. She watched the two males go at it as she listened to what Logan said. Of course, this was all too entertaining as she seemed to hum at his words. Her eyes were shifting away as the question was poised at her- or really, at Irinei. She arched a brow, shuffling her sweater and scarf as to not be completely swallowed up by the taste of fabric. Fingers carefully thumbing over the fabric and the rest of the way, her eyes slanted and she sighed. "Seems Irinei's talents of making friends... didn't pan out like I heard it did." She mumbled. The comment could generally be regarded as a statement to herself aloud, or towards Logan. It didn't matter anymore. Because she was now ducking away and next the bigger man's side to avoid anything that might get rowdy. It wouldn't, but its an excuse to hide from John's scrutinizing gaze.
It wouldn't- but the cognac hues just boring right at her twin seems to state otherwise. "Nor.. his street smarts." Although, voice was now straining and rising in its confidence. Was it because she could finally relax and be herself? Or was it because she was around one of the people she.. pretty much grew up with?
Irinei spluttered- the question and comments from John directed at him and finally hearing what his sibling said. And he addressed them in the order to which he could make the quickest quip. "Firstly, Lyud- dearest- I did make plenty of friends. Secondly, street smarts aren't needed with my ability-"
A quip in soft Russian that had Irinei floundering and turning red.
"-T-Thirdly, I typically can shake people's hand and learn something of them. That determines if I can trust them.. or to use discretion," he told John. His eyes were drifting away, cheeks redder than a typical Christmas stocking. The green and cognac stuck out like a sore thumb then, pale skin tinging redder as Lyudmilla continued her giggling. "B-but... considering the fact that Lyud's instincts are to beeline towards 'good' Mutants and the general friendly attitude, it must mean that she trusts you and Mr. Logan. If she trusts you, then I do too. Seems to be one of her general instincts. Must be that training she's been receiving."
It was true. The more openness of her stance told John that she was more comfortable around him and Logan. Despite the fact she didn't speak- the general headshaking from earlier told that she was not pleased at her brother. However, Irinei was quickly pinched by the ear and it was pulled. He gave a protest, rubbing the pinched spot as he sent his sister a glare. She puffed out her cheeks, hiding her reddening face below her scarf and looking away.
Lyudmilla sighed, looking at John now. "Apologies for brother... He's..." she glanced at Irinei. "More.. lax."
Wanda-
Wanda's mind was reeling at impossible speeds. How was it that each time spent away felt like the eternity? Even the softness of his voice, the lilt of his seemingly... human-British accent; She could only reach out and slowly take his hand. Her form was closing in to make an attempt to press at his own. It was out of wishing to be close. There was something alluring. Despite being a living A.I., he acted more human than anyone she's ever really met. The sheer possibility of complex emotions, of the concern- the adoration in his eyes when he looked towards her:
Human. Even if everyone else said otherwise, to Wanda he was undoubtedly human. "I'm glad to see you too.." a soft inhale as her gaze seemed to get lost within his once more. A moment of silence, before she added, "I'm glad I had hoped right. I was impatient the ride here that it almost feels.. a bit surreal.." The softness seemed to continue, as though their private world could not be interrupted. Nor would anyone want it. Truly, some of the most observant people seemed to drift away and pester the others that went along with the decoration wars or what have you. In fact, she had a small gift for him, and the tiny gift was in her other hand.
This time, Wanda was going to make sure to stick at Vision's side the whole while... If she was allowed that is. Who knows, maybe they all will be able to have the peaceful night that is often sung about. It would be a delightful changed for once.
Natasha:
Natasha looked to Tom with a faint smirk. It was that half made smirk which tugged her lips up. "So it would seem. Yet, I'm going to take a bet that it'll be ending in flames soon." Her gaze traveled from the male to the decoration he was setting up. Mostly, she was looking over the way that Tony led his tiny companion off and saw his suit come into view. She knew the billionaire wouldn't hold back from using his suit to aide him. Even so, she knew that it would be disaster. Her eyes turned away from them and towards her own motions in the decorations. She was gently lifting wreaths and listening to the faint crackling of the fireplace. Even with the sound of Christmas music and everything, she was still acutely aware of Clint arguing with an inanimate object.
The assassin snorted, glancing at Tom once more. "Well... What are your bets? Who's going to win this?"
