LOOK BACK | o, attempting to steal

[buckingham barnes]

When Buckingham padded his way through the seatown village on gentle paws, he didn't expect to run into anything, or anyone, suspicious. The former assassin was planning to go back to his docked boat, while it was small and cozy, it was the perfect living space for him. But all thoughts of spending a majority of his night there were quickly tossed to the side. His tufted ears pricked up at the sound of a loud yelp, and then a clunk sound. His head quickly snapped towards the source, light blue eyes narrowing slightly. The moment he picked those up, and when an unfamiliar scent invaded his nostrils, the maine coon quickly made his way over. Bucky has enhanced senses, he can pick up sounds and scents far easier than the average person- that strange scent lead to the source of the yelping. They didn't smell like a Sunhaven member, meaning they must be a trespasser who sneaked their way in.

Bucky quickly padded into the scene after Sparrow, his ears flattening to his skull as his gaze locked on Duke, who was stuck under a fishing net. The fox looked pretty pathetic, with the dead fish all around him- Duke is definitely going to smell like a fish for the next couple hours. Plus, it looks pathetic because the net just makes him easy to catch, showing the fox's clear failure. "Wow, you managed to get yourself caught in a fishing net," He snickered for a moment, his tail slowly swishing behind him, "What a fucking idiot, really." His ears pricked near Sparrow, catching the male's quiet comment with his enhanced senses. If they were in a more violent based group, and if Bucky wasn't trying to change, he'd be on board for killing Duke. The assassin inside of him would have loved to spill the fox's blood and get their fur stuck between his metal claws. "We shouldn't kill him. Let's wait for Jericho to arrive, I'm sure he'll have a good idea how to handle this thief." He commented as he shook his head, before he focused back on Duke, eyes gleaming with disapproval and anger. It was clear that Buckingham wanted to go through with the killing, but forced himself to disagree. He was angry that he's still struggling with who he is- looks like he just has to continue working to change himself. And even if he feels like he can't do it, or wants to give up, he must continue.
