“Hm.” Bucky took a moment to scribble something else on the page real quick before dropping the reed again.

“Well, the risky life isn’t for everyone. I can get behind the idea of safety being more important.” Not that he would practice it himself willingly. He thrived on surviving, and if that was taken from him, then his use may as well have worn out entirely. It was what he was built for, and escaping it, even if only to try and find happiness for himself, seemed so utterly treacherous without paying for his sins. Keeping the status quo when you were new to an area was the easiest way to get by though.

“Just making do isn’t too bad anyway. Rather be safe than sorry, especially when strange things are happening.”

With that, he flipped his book shut and reached over to recap the ink bottle. If they were going to keep talking, it was probably better to move somewhere else. Bucky didn’t like prying eyes even on the best of days, and at this point, the two of them may as well talk circles for hours without getting anywhere.
