MR. ORANGE, I WENT TO THE DINER BUT I DIDN'T FIND ANY TRACE OF A PERSON. THE OWNER SAID THAT ALL THEIR STAFF GOT OUT AND THAT THEY DIDN'T FIND ANY BODIES EITHER. SINCERELY STEVE ROGERS
Larry squints in the evening light. When that sun starts to dip low over the open desert and ignites the sky it makes driving a little more of a chore. Nevermind that though, he's going home to the casa. A day in the city wheeling, dealing and making what money he can he wouldn't think to spend more time than he should out.
Not when his man is waiting for him.
All their running and the weight of the dollar bill has got them far, farther than he ever thought. The coast could be clear if he believed that hostage situations were just dropped and missing felons were no big deal in the States. They still are. Mexico on the other hand...
Up ahead lies the winding road to their property, he slows and is sure by now if Freddy's waiting, he can see him through the windows. Another day.
[The older man is driving and so he'll be the one to pick what they listen to enjoying their tacos.Mr. White and Mr. Orange's cruising happened to have them close to a taco truck. What are the chances that a taco truck is right where they need it to be. LA is a hell of a town. The sun is setting and the small lot they're in is out of the way. Looks like that truck will be pulling out soon anyway.]
[He's been sitting on this for two days but it's not Cap's style to brood. Honestly he should have confronted Bucky about it first.
He should have, but a part of him is afraid of the response. Part of him will never see Captain America, but that skinny kid who was too dumb to run from a fight, that twerpy artist whose hands were too big and whose head was too big and whose chest rattled with asthma. Good enough for friendship, but not worth much else, right?
Right?
He hears Freddy come in, hears him talking to someone out in the precinct, and sticks his head out of his office door.]
Freddy, I need to see you.
[He doesn't want to make it professional. Freddy, not Newendyke, no matter how much he wants to try and exert authority.]
[ There's a slight pause as Eames doubts whether or not this was message worthy at all, but Eames has never had very many friends and this tough guy is one of them, ok. ]
Realistically speaking, I ought to be happier if someone has gone home, yeah?
