BELIEVER // METAL PROSTHETIC LIMB FAILING - vvintersoldier - 05-13-2018

It's been a few days since Bucky, or Winter Soldier(or Winbuck as Melantha called him), joined the ranks of Snowbound. It was a confusing past few days, days that he spent in a medics den getting wounds treated and attended to. As he patiently allowed the medics to do their work, thoughts ran through his mind. First off, he still had no memories and wasn't exactly sure who he was. He wants to know, but he just needs to think of what can jog his memory first. Second of all, he thought into what Melantha said. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense to him. It was probably more confusing for him to go by two names than one. For now on, the maine coon was going to go by the name Buckingham Barnes, or Bucky for short. It seemed like everyone preferred that name anyways.

And third, the maine coon was physically healed enough to be walk around and leave the den. His head wound had a nice, clean bandage to it, and any other wounds he might have were patched up too. There was just one small, tiny thing he and the medics didn't notice. It was his metal prosthetic, it was slightly out of place- it must have gotten this way from the injury that gave him his amnesia. Which was of course, the fall. Little did Bucky know, that the whole time he traveled with Cayde, he caused his metal leg to be in an even worse condition. And now, it was ready to snap off with any step Buckingham made.

The fluffy maine coon had made his way through the camp, blue eyes scanning for that somewhat familiar amur leopard. Bucky hadn't seen the amur leopard much after the two joined, making the amnesiac assassin begin to wonder if Cayde stayed here at all. But he still wanted to look around, maybe he wasn't looking hard enough! But his search for his acquaintance didn't last long.

Bucky heard a pop sound. And suddenly, he was falling onto the ground, chin first. What the hell? That hurt, The male thought as he attempted to push himself up with his paws, before he froze at the sight of his paws. Or well, paw. He can only see his flesh paw below him, that chestnut fur and cream colored socks. But not that metal, silverish gray, leg he has grown used to. Slowly, Bucky's gaze looked over his shoulder, and his eyes widened at the sight of his metal prosthetic. His ears flattened quickly to his head, some panic flashing before his eyes. "Oh fuck!" He cursed, limping over to his metal limb and grabbing hold of it.

This wasn't good, this isn't good at all!



Re: BELIEVER // METAL PROSTHETIC LIMB FAILING - →AUGUST← - 05-13-2018


August probably didn't have to walk over; someone else would've eventually, but the deer was in Snowbound for a reason.. He wasn't mean enough to just leave Bucky alone to deal with his leg having literally fallen off, even if he didn't have a single clue who the cat was. He'd been watching Bucky from where he was lying up against the wall. He did tend to be pretty lazy, after all, and lying around was better than forcing himself to move when the numbness of his body got to him.

The zombie staggered to his feet and walked over to the cat. The poor thing already looked like it had enough to deal with, what with the bandages on it. August was a little surprised the cat hadn't made any noise besides the curse that it had uttered when seeing its' leg on the ground.

"Do you know how to put it back on? I can help with that. If you can't, I can help you to the medics den. I'm sure someone there will know how to put it back." Of course, August wasn't.. Actually sure anyone knew how to put it back on, but the cat already seemed stressed just by the leg falling off, so he really didn't want to stress him further if he could help it.

The tiger would twitch his whiskers momentarily listening to what August said before nodding slowly before rumbling "You need a hand? Or a whole leg?" He couldn't stop a grin from appearing from his maw but eventually cleared his throat with a light shake of his head "Sorry uh, but I can help in trying to put it back on." He was no surgeon of any sorts but he knew well enough on how a prosthetic worked or was put in especially when he had done some reading on this type of thing. The striped beast would listen to what August said but his eyes were solely locked onto the metallic limb with a bit of interest hiding behind his exhausted gaze, he had been collecting bits of metals or whatever he could get his paws on. He tilted his cranium to the side with a small shrug "Prosthetics normally don't pop off without reason. . . Maybe you've outgrown it." There was a pause before he continued with a soft 'hmm' "If that's the case then you'll need a new one. . ." He realized that he hadn't introduced himself "Stark Angore-Ferro,"

.
Killua wasn't exactly the type to make things out of his own creation. He had come across plenty of mechanics during his life, and those that were artists themselves. Killua knew that he would never fall into those categories, and at the same time he didn't really care all that much either. The wildcat knew that he was more of the type that would be willing to destroy rather than create. That had been what his family had created him for after all, and there was no getting away from what his family had really tried to do. It was horrible yes, but it was a realistic thought of what he was capable of. He was a fighter, and didn't have to worry about anything that was on his body. Actually, that was a lie. Compared to Bucky, Killua had metal claws that were fitted inside of his sheathes where his natural claws should have been. He had them removed when he was just a kitten, and when someone declaws a cat, it means that the claws will never end up growing back. He went through a surgery that happened while he was awake where metal claws were attached to the tendons that allowed claws to sheathe and unsheathe themselves. Fairly simple, but it also meant that he had to be careful when he first got them in because he could have his claws ripped out since they weren't completely attached to his flesh like a regular claw would end up being. Not all of his claws were metal though, and in fact his back legs had regular claws, as he rarely ever used his back claws. Didn't mean that any sort of claw was any less dangerous of course. The wildcat had his metal claws for quite a long time before ended up getting into a confrontation with his older brother. Killua didn't know what to really expect when his brother appeared, but one of the things his brother had done was rip out his metal claws, to where Killua had to get new ones for himself. Which required payment and hoping that the surgeon he paid would be good enough to get the job done right. That was around three months ago now, and his claws were working perfectly fine all things considered. However, they weren't renewable, and eventually, he would wear them down to the point where he would need to get new ones. Not an easy task because he doubted that anyone in the clans would be capable of surgery. He would have to wait for the right time, or he would be forced to go back to his families mansion, which was worst case scenario in his mind. Killua would never think of getting a prosthetic though, as there was basically no need when he couldn't even really feel his paws anyway thanks to the nerve damage that had been done to them. The assassin had no need to try and add really anything to his body, as it would give him a disadvantage to where he would have to learn how to work that portion of his body again. Killua himself knew plenty about technology and how some of them worked.

He had played video games in the mansion where he had grown up in, he knew what phones and other pieces of technology were. He knew the basics though, as he hasn't been around technology for a very long time as he knew they were easily broken. Killua had the ability to activate technology thanks to his electricity elementals, but even that was a tax on his body in the end. Either way, Killua had never really met someone that had a metal prosthetic limb. A prosthetic eye he has seen, but that was a very long time ago. The albino serval was making his daily trip toward camp when he caught a familiar scent. Stark. The other had ended up becoming a father figure to him, although he wouldn't openly say it out loud either. The assassin's metal claws were sheathed, and he had bandages wrapped around his throat and right leg. The bandage on his right leg having blood dotting certain areas, and the injuries were something he had caused by himself. Not his greatest moment but not much he could have done while he was asleep. Killua blinked his sapphire blue eyes as both August and Stark were standing around someone that he had never seen before. Bucky had happened to join when Killua had gotten his injuries and decided to basically hide from the rest of the clan until he was capable of walking without a limb. There was a metal limb that was on the ground, and the stranger seemed to be struggling a little bit. The Snowstriker stopped next to Stark, his eyes trailing over the brown maine coon. It reminded him too much of Circusclown. A feeling that he was quick to snuff out before he got emotional. But there was something else about the other. He got a bad vibe from him. The voice in the back of his head was trying to warn him of something, and Killua tried to ignore it. But that was basically impossible with the way that the voice ultimately ended up working. He clenched his jaw before sitting down and acted like there was nothing wrong with the current situation. "I'm guessing its not supposed to do that?" Killua would tease with a smirk spreading across his facial features. He raised his left paw and conjured up a lollipop that he was quick to pop into his mouth. He flicked one of his large white ears as his gaze traveled to Stark who was offering to help. Well, at least he wouldn't have to help with a situation he wasn't skilled with. Killua's air elementals were indeed on to constantly hide his scent and make it so that his approach would be silent. He had a bad feeling that he couldn't shake off. "Never seen ya before. What's your name? And what happened to ya?" Killua questioned the other, not really seeming to care if he was in any condition to answer said questions. "Oh, but Stark here can fix ya up." Killua stated with a shrug of his shoulders. He spoke in a calm tone, his facial expression returning back to neutral after he had smirked toward the maine coon.

Re: BELIEVER // METAL PROSTHETIC LIMB FAILING - guts - 05-14-2018

Aizawa happens across the scene, returning from a trek along the border with the intentions to lay down and take a nap somewhere. Of course, his plans are cut short when he spots the small gathering, his interest caught as he pads over. At first, he's startled by the mention of limbs apparently popping off, but then he sees that it was just a replacement leg. Really, he had no experience with prosthetics, nor did he have any knowledge on them. He wasn't a very handy man, after all.

He studies the maine coon, then his eyes move over to his fake leg, which looks slightly unsettling. While he doesn't know much about such things, it sounded like his clan-mate did, at least. Whoever these guys were. He'd never seen them around before, either. But since Kilua had already asked the question on his mind, he was silent.

Oh, Bucky wanted to swear more about his current situation- the maine coon was pissed. He wasn't sure what happened to him exactly when he woke up in that ravine, but from what just happened, he assumed it took some numbers on his prosthetic limb. He also had no idea how long he had it, considering he has no memories to look back on. What the tom doesn't know is that he has had it for a few years, and the leg worked like a charm. The male managed to pull his gaze off of his prosthetic limb and onto August, a Snowbounder Bucky hasn't seen before. Bucky hasn't been that great social wise since the day he joined, so it wasn't surprising if there were people he didn't know coming over to investigate. At August's question, the maine coon tried to think. He looked through his head for any possible answers, how to reattach it, hoping he'd managed to find any sort of memory in his head. But his attempts were useless, no matter how deep he went into his head, nothing popped up. "I can't remember how it was attached," The tom said as his ears flattened to his skull, feeling frustration at his head and his lack of memories.

"You need a hand? Or a whole leg?"

Those words quickly grabbed Bucky's attention, his head snapping towards the striped beast with a frown on his maw. Buckingham was clearly upset about this, if he was in any better mood, he would find the comment funny. "Oh, that's fucking hilarious," The male said sarcastically, tufted ears flattening to his skull. It seemed like how Bucky took the comment managed to let a little more frustration off of his chest. But thankfully, not enough that he was about to full on snap at the tiger. He was still offering his help, after all. Did he really possibly out grow the limb? That might be the case, maybe his injury helped his metal prosthetic get worse, as if it just needed a push to fall off. "It might have to do with that, but I feel like my injury might have played a factor in it too," He said with a frown, wondering where he was going to get a new prosthetic limb. This one happened to be really, really nice. He wondered if it was even possible for him to find a new one like it.

Bucky's blue gaze would land on Killula next, who happened to be a fellow assassin. They were both probably unaware that they held a similar position- Bucky couldn't exactly remember it, and Bucky doesn't know anything about Killula. And once he remembers it, he probably won't be open about it. Who knows if they will know in the future then. "Yeah, it's not supposed to do that," He confirmed Killula's question, before his ears pricked up at the white tom's other questions. "You can call me Buckingham or Bucky," He said after a moment of thinking- he knew that some people might be confused regarding his name, but it didn't seem like anyone here approached him when he joined. He didn't have to explain that he decided to stick with one name instead of two. "I can't remember what exactly happened to me, I assume that I fell and hit my head, as gave me a bad case of amnesia." And he has bandages wrapped on his head from a wound, it would make sense if he lost memories due to head trauma.

He glanced over at Aizawa, but the male said no words to him. Aizawa said nothing to Bucky, so the male felt like he had no reason to speak up to him. He did notice how Aizawa studied him, and then onto his prosthetic limb. Hopefully his clan-mates can help him in his situation, but he has a feeling that his prosthetic limb won't be reattached anytime soon.



Re: BELIEVER // METAL PROSTHETIC LIMB FAILING - jacob w.c. - 05-17-2018

[div style="text-align:justify;font-family:verdana;width:60%"]
WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — Jacob had spent a significant amount of time looking at different types of prosthetics in the past but not because he had a patient that needed one. After the fire and after the building had collapsed on him, Jacob's legs, and body in general, had taken a significant amount of damage. Directly following both of those events, he hadn't been able to walk around and he'd made a makeshift wheelchair for himself to get around in. Slowly, he'd used it less and less and now had almost complete mobility, though he had a hard time jumping or running, even on good days. But the day was still coming. All the physical therapy, all the exercises, all the herbs... Those were only things that slowed the silent decay of his legs and nerves. He knew that one morning he'd wake up and he wouldn't be able to move and that day was looming closer than ever. He had less good days than ever before and he was often in pain, even if he did manage to get himself out of his cave in the morning. He'd done a good job of hiding it since he'd adopted Harrison but he couldn't keep it up forever.

Jacob had only been passing by when he heard someone let out a rather explicit exclamation. Jacob was used to such words, having spent his whole life around his Pa, Babbo, and Jerseyboy. He found himself glancing around for Harry before he made his way over among the group that had already gathered. It seemed Stark had it under control for the most part but he still spoke, "I know quite a bit 'bout prosthetics but I ain't ever worked with anythin' as complicated as that. I could try takin' a look at the attachment process if Stark can look at the mechanical stuff, though. I wouldn' wanna' mess nothin' up when I try ta' reattach it. If ya' fell, it mighta' jus' jostled the mechanisms that were keepin' it in place. It wouldn' be tha' hard ta' realign them. At least, I wouldn' think so if it's anythin' like the other ones 've worked with. This one might be more shiny but unless they did somethin' real special ta' it, 'm sure it connects jus' like any other one would. At least, ones like this where it really mimics the whole limb n' stuff like that. 'Ve only ever got ta' work with two like tha' n' they were made ah' plastic but 'm pretty confidant I could do it usin' my old notes for reference," he offered.
