Bucky gave Steve a nudge back, silently telling him to back off a bit. He wasnt the same ladies man he used to be to be he was far to cautious now to even try anything… Samhowever caught onto what steve was trying to do and stepped in ‘’you know.. Bucky here can help you cook Kara, hes actually pretty good at it’’ sam stated and Bucky glared at him ‘’you can? Really?’’ Nat asked and bucky sighed ‘’yeah. Its not a big deal’’ bucky stated ‘’well get over here and help’’’ nat said and grabbed him.. he let out a huff but went along with it, letting Kara instruct him on what she wanted done.
meanwile Anastasia was finally able to elt everyone soak out of her… she felt betetr as she zipped over to her room to shower properly. She got chnaged in classic black loose wide legged pants, a tight cropped tshirt, some heels and a light cardigan over it. She sat in her room in silence for a bit.. she liked the silence and after all that interaction

Steve sighed softly when Bucky nudged him again. Kara was at the stove laughing with her sister who was attempting to chop the Lettuce. When Sam spoke up, Steve rolled his lips together to keep from laughing as Bucky went over to the two sisters and Natasha moved her salad stuff to the island. Kara instructed Bucky on making the scalloped potatoes and slicing them up first while she worked on the stuffed chicken, explaining what she was doing when Bucky asked her. Steve glanced at Sam with a thank you kind of smile. "Mind keeping an eye on things? I'm going to check on Ana" he said softly and Sam nodded. Steve snuck out of the kitchen and headed up to Anastasia's room, lightly knocking on the door before she opened it. "Hey, I know human food isn't exactly your thing but, Nat, Kara and Bucky are making dinner if you care to join us" he offered.

Anna had still been sitting on her bed in silence, starring at really nothing when she heard a knock, she got up and opened it, eeing steve there. She paused for a second before answering ‘’sure. Ill come and sit for abit ‘’ she siad gently before leaving her room and follwingsteve, she wrapped her cardigan around her as they entered the kitchen ‘’hey youre just in time, everything will be ready soon’’ Nat siad as Sam pulled out Anna’s chair for her ‘’thank you Sam’’ she siad gently before feeling ehr work phone buzz. She sighed softly and looked at the email before smiling ‘‘what’s got you smiling?’’ Bucky asked as he set the table for everyone ‘’a little girl i sponsor has gone into remission… cancer free for right now.. shes 6… her mother just emailed me… turns out the treatment plan me and the hospital came up with worked.. im glad..’’ she siad softly as she looked at her phone ‘’so.. i gotta ask.. what exactly does your business do?’’ Sam asked as Ann about her phone away. ‘’I construct ad sell safe security plans, products, systems and wepaons for countries, cities, provinces and o on. Even for the private sector, for millionaires, billionaires. Or even for the average person,. Even a few dooms day people buy form me. My company is vast, spreading all over the world, we work to build safety nets for people so wars can end quicker, so people cna live safety and security. We also specialize in medical science research, hence the cancer sponsoring, we work with militaries ot help upgrade their systems, and we work with helping to preserve and safe Girard animals whoa re being hunted to extinction. And yes everyone in my company knows im a vampire.’’ Anna siad before evryone sat down. ‘’Sounds busy’’ bucky stated as they started to eat, minus Ana, ho didn’t often eat human food. Unless it was chocolate. She loved chocolate. ‘’it is. But its worth it, so far we have helped just over 2 million people live in safer conditions’’ she said gently and bucky nodded as he ate, he sat by Kara, as sam made it a point to seat Anna by steve, while nat took one end of the table and sam took the other, Clint had left to go home, tony was off doing something and bruce was sleeping, thor was of course back on his world until he ecided. Come back and Wanda was with vision currently.

Steve smiled at Anastasia and walked with her back down to the kitchen as the food was being put on the island. "Smells great guys" he commented as he sat between Ana and Sam. Kara looked at Ana as she explained her business "You sell to doomsday people? Like those who want to destroy the world? How is that keeping anyone safe?" Kara dared to ask as she sat beside Bucky and began to eat, though she paused as his potatoes turned out really good, better than she remembered making herself. "I'm surprised you're not in competition with Stark and his weapons versus your security" Steve lightly joked as he dished up his food and kept passing things around to the others.

Anna chuckled at Kara’s statement, . ‘’The ‘doomsday’ people we sell to are the ones who have made bunkers, who belive god is coming and want to have a safe and secure palce to be… not ones who want weapons. We dont sell many weapons persay… i didnt want a Lot of weapons, unless they were made to deflect threats only. For examples ,we have a automated gun stystem that is set to only attack war planes that fly over head, they are set to a specific calibration that only i can activate when its one hundred percent needed, the country may house them. But i contorl them’’ Anna explained ‘’is it like that for most of the stuff you do?’’ Bucky asked as he ate ‘’yes, anything that i feel is.. to much power for humans, i will keep the controls of,that way they cnat go using it for false hoods. ‘’ she said ‘’so. .you've been around for a long time.. why havent you sopped wars? Or.. done something mroe about that?’’ Sam asked with a genuine curiosity ‘’because i am not a god. I cat not just snap my fingers and make world peace a thing… some wars, are necessary. Many are not, but some are, if i tried to compell every war person out there,id never be able to rest, but if i can create safer systems that actually protect epople, then at least i can do that. Plus i also fund a lot of other things, funding goes into NASA, into the medical fields, into human rights and safety protocols, into many government programs for many countries. Its not just one thing i do.’’ She siad gently. Bucky thought about what she said and wondered if sh ahd any experience with anything that could give him a better arm that wasn from HYDRA… he had wnated to talk to maybe fury about that idea.. but knowing Anna was into so many things.. he wondered if shed be better suited to help him than fury could.

Steve had eventually finished eating as he listened to what Ana told them. "Interesting you never mentioned any of this before" Tony pointed out. "She's improving security worldwide Tony, not trying to weaponize it" Steve remarked. After their encounter with Ultron, the iron legion around the world was disassembled on a permanent basis, no thanks to Tony. Kara simply nodded at Anastasia's answer, now understanding what she meant by doomsday people. Seeing that everyone was done eating and not taking more, Kara stood from her seat and began collecting plates and silverware as she took them to the sink to start cleaning up. Standing there, she remembered Ohio, when she was eight. Natasha was setting the table for five, while Yelena took food to the table that Kara and their mother cooked together, and Kara had made brownies with icing for dessert. The water in the sink was running as she froze, recalling that memory just weeks before they fled to Cuba and their lives changed.

Bucky sighed a bit as he thoguht to himself.. he hadnt even realized dinner was techincally over until Kara started to clear the table. He decided to be ncie and help clean up and put away the extra food. Anna stood and sensed a shift int he air she turned to Kara and walked over to her, placing a hand on ehr shoudler ‘’use the water’’ she said gently before tkaing the vial and opening it, dabbing the water onto the girls forehead. ‘’Remember,rely on the water to calm your mind.. your aura has shifted… remain calm and breath Kara’’ Anna said as she placed the necklace back on. Bucky over heard the more one sided conversation jsut as nat brought him the othe r left over food. ‘’Hey Anna?’’ He called out and Anna turned ot him and walked ‘’yes?’’ She asked and leaned against the counter ‘’wth your research.. have.. found..a way to make.. better prosthetics for missing limbs?’’ He asked,catching Steve’s attention ‘’there have been some deployments in that feild, thanks to rising new technologies. More prosthetics are becoming much mroe advanced.. why?’’ She asked ‘’because id like to replace this thing… with someting mroe.. normal lokoing.. this was given obviously by hydra.. i..ant keep hanging onto it.. but currently it’s All i have’’ bucky staed and Anna nodded’’well..i can make a few calls..youd have to do a consultation.. but i think i can help find you a more. Natural looking one.’’she said‘’I’d appreciate it.. having this thing from hydra.. its.. like i haven’t fully escaped them.. theyre still here.. and frankly id like to try o mvoe on fromt his lastitem’’ he admitted, he wasnt usually open like that.. let alone open enoguh where others could hear.

Steve looked over when Bucky asked Anastasia about prosthetics, he hadn't thought of asking T'Challa about that, certainly Shuri could have designed something. Kara blinked when Ana put the water from the vial on her forehead and snapped back into it. "I'm sorry. I was caught in a memory of the last time I cooked food" she said sheepishly. Natasha asked her something in Russian and Kara nodded, confirming it was the brownie dessert night when Kara had first made them. "You want a human looking arm? With chubby rubber fingers?" Sam teased. "Less bionic looking i guess right?" He added and Steve nudged him to shut it. "I think the metal arm suits you" Kara voiced. "Maybe not the hydra one but metal in general, it suits you" she added as she gathered the rest of the dirty dishes from the table and pulled up her sleeves as her arms went into the warm soapy water as she began washing them.

Bucky gave Sam a hard look, one that said ‘say anything else and your dead’ kind of a look. When he heard what Kara said, he was a bit..stunned… he hadnt really expected her to say anything bout his arm let alone think much of it or him for that matter. Anna sighed a bit before speaking ‘’you have therapy tomorrow yes/.. talk to your therapist,ill go in with you if youd like… but talk o him about the changing arms thing… i know you hate hydra, we all do on different levels..but is this really about the hydra part of it? Or because of something mroe underlying that you aren’t thought of…’’ she stated gently before admitting something ‘’i am still branded by hydra’’ she said gently, makign the room go silent ‘’branded?’’ Natasha asked ‘’yes.. middle of my back, the hydra logo,they used a special chemical that my vampire healing cant heal…thy used my blood to make sure it wouldnt heal it.. i am still branded by hydra… but one thing ive learned over my long life time.. is that.. even though their name is still there.. the menaing.. has changed behind it.. i changed it… it at first meant i was theirs.. i was their property.. the experiment.. it meant they could torture me as much as they wanted too.. the day i fled.. is the day it changed its meaning, now.. its a symbol of freedom for me.. its a reason to fight against them.. to take them down as much as i can.. it stands for mroe than what it once was…’’ Anna said ‘’you James.need to change the menaing of that arm.. you are an avenger now… chnage the menaing of it… talk to your therapist, talk it all out and when youre done,if you still want to get rid of the metal arm. Then i will help you. But talk first. Talking and admitting your feelings to someone, helps a lot in many situations.’’ She said gently before stepping away from the counter.bucky sighed a bit as he thoguht about hwat Anna said as she left the room. He ordered just how honest he was being with himself.

Steve was surprised when he heard Anastasia say she was branded by hydra, she had founded SHIELD and been here longer than any of them, and never one mentioned it. "Did you ever consider skin graphs to get rid of it?" Sam asked her. "It would leave some minor scars but the brand would be gone" he added. When Anastasia finished speaking to Bucky, Steve sighed "Its ultimately your choice Buck, but no offense i think a prosesthetic one with rubber for flesh would look more awkward. If you want to stick with something metal, I can talk to T'Challa, maybe Shuri can make you something out of vibranium" Steve told him sincerely as the group began filing out of the kitchen, minus Kara who was washing dishes and putting leftovers in containers and into the fridge.
