[buckingham barnes]

The maine coon couldn't exactly relate to Gordon- Buckingham never felt very uncomfortable in large groups. In the past, Bucky used to be apart of two groups, and he'd consider them both to be relatively large. He didn't live in the first group for very long, as some problems quickly arose, but he considered the second group to be his home for a long time. The two groups were like polar opposites, the first being peaceful and friendly, the second being violent and brutal. While people here might not seem to realize it, Buckingham fit well into the second group- he wasn't bothered by their aggressive actions, and didn't hesitate to take part. For a long time, before he even got fully into the group, Bucky used to be someone's asset- very quickly the male was shaped into an assassin, and he wasn't afraid to kill.

Though, even after months of breaking away from his handler, Bucky continued to live in the group. He continued to be an assassin, but instead of for his handler, he did it for himself. He thought he'd never be able to truly let go of the person he was molded into, and that once sweet, humble tom was gone for good.

It took him a lot of courage to leave. He knew it was hard to change his mannerisms after having them driven into his skull, but it was taking a toll on him. He was getting fucking tired, tired of tearing families apart, making people weep over their dead loved ones, and taking innocent lives. He had to escape that dangerous life, which was why he forced himself to leave it behind and don't look back. He wants to change this time around, he doesn't want to kill without reason.

Buckingham found himself padding near the border of Sunhaven, each step light as ever, as if his paws were feathers. The male barely put any weight into his paws, the end result being- barely making a sound. This was one thing that Bucky just knows he can't get rid of from his time as an asset- being sneaky as fuck. Trust me, he's tried to get out of this habit- he failed at every attempt. Padding near, but not at the border has it's perks. The maine coon is able to watch scenes unfold without people even noticing his presence- as if he's hiding in the shadows. The male blinked slowly as he noticed Gordon jump back, pricked ears picking up every word coming from Gordon and Stellamaris- with his enhanced senses, it makes things like this easier. Gordon Cipher, it certainly isn't a name that sounds familiar to the tom.

Without saying a word, the former assassin began to pad over to the felines, light blue eyes locked on Gordon. As before, each step he made was delicate and gentle, barely any noise radiating off of his body. When the male finally arrived to the scene, he padded near Stellamaris, appearing as if he came out of no where. "Welcome to Sunhaven, Gordon," Buckingham spoke up with an expression that could barely be detected- a minuscule smile. "I'm Buckingham Barnes- but feel free to call me Bucky."
