[Spam for the Hallways]

[During his first flood on the Barge, Bucky had swapped powers (or lack thereof, in his case) with Ben, and had experienced what it had been like to be a fully powered Transgenic for a few days.

Being a wolf - or a dog, he couldn't really tell which he actually was and wasn't sure it actually mattered when it really came down to it - wasn't all that different in some ways. His hearing and sense of smell was better, stronger, and it was strange to adjust to, even if at the same time, he could see where it could be really useful, to always have them around. He couldn't do the vaguely disorienting telescope vision thing Ben could, but considering he was now adjusting to also walking on four legs and not having hands anymore, he wasn't all that bummed to be missing out on another thing that would just make things strange and different.

At the moment, he was looking for Ben (operating the network with paws had turned out to be too frustrating to deal with, really), wandering the halls, sniffing around trying to pick up on the trail of his inmate, and generally keeping more or less out of the way while searching for the transgenic. There was definitely a strong urge to get someone to let him into the CES so he could go running and hunt something, and to have companions accompany him in doing it, and considering Ben definitely got that whole pack instinct thing, he seemed like a decent candidate for running off and doing stuff with, assuming he wasn't stuck as a squirrel or something right now.

... Actually, that might be pretty bad. There was a definite desire to chase after small animals he was doing his best to ignore. Worse came to worst, he could always probably bother Steve or some of the other dogs to do something.]

[ooc: Bucky can communicate with anyone for the sake of clarity and sanity. Also he's technically a wolfdog, so feel free to mistake him as either a large husky/malamute/something or a proper wolf.]

[Steve might give it a little more thought, once he's calmed down about all the wonderful things a dog nose (and ears) can do. But there is Bucky, and he is also Pack, and he would be getting a happy bark if Steve weren't being tackled.

He does, however, attempt to roll with the tackle, so he's sort of flopped across Bucky and panting happily.] Hope I'm not interrupting.

[Bucky just laughs, which probably looks kind of scary because A. dogs don't laugh and B. that's a lot of sharp teeth to be showing off, but he's honestly amused and having a good time so why not.] What would you be interrupting? I'm a dog.

[He considers the statement as he extricates himself from the pile, shaking himself off a little.]

Or a wolf. I'm not actually sure. How 'bout you? I'm almost surprised you're not a bald eagle. [It's a joke, because a friendly dog is pretty much 100% accurate for you, bro.]

[thestarspangledman]

Well, I dunno, you mighta been doing something. [But there's a quiet huff of laughter in return, though really it just looks like he's panting a little more than he was before.]

[He tilts his head a bit as Bucky talks, listening intently, and moves up to sit with a curious look.] A dog of some kind, obviously. Not having hands isn't much fun, but I'll stick by Peggy, I guess. Anyone else we know get turned into anything?

[imfollowinghim]

Natasha's a leopard, or a jaguar or something, haven't run into anyone else yet. [Although he could definitely smell a lot of other animals around, which was. Weird.]

She was following me around again.

[Steve sniffs the air a little and wrinkles his nose, looking -- well, as thoughtful as a dog can look.]

Maybe she just likes you. I think Stark's a bird of some kind, I couldn't see him, but I heard him clear enough.

[imfollowinghim]

[Bucky snorts.] Great, even when we can't see him, he's annoying.

[He's not really bitching though. Tony's an ass, but he's not the worst person he's ever known, and he's Steve's friend, so he's more than willing to tolerate him when he's not making jokes about Hitler.]

[thestarspangledman]

Sort of a running thing with him.

[Neither is he. Tony's a friend, sort of -- not as good as Bucky is, of course, they've only just met. But he is tolerable, when he wants to be, and a hero, even if he doesn't seem to believe it most of the time.]
