No? [ Waving her into the apartment. ] Okay, I'm lost.

[charring]

[She heads in. Nervous is not the word used to describe her right now. Extremely stressed? That's a better word.] Well, he did. And remember that music curse from the other day?

[You have a couch, right Bucky? Charlie's sitting on it now, fidgeting with the ends of her hair.]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Pausing to put coffee on. ] Yeah?

[charring]

Those songs were an accurate representation of how a person felt about another and Ed's songs around me tended to be very...romantic. [Ckasjdfkjhkljfah and there it is. And she's watching Petrichor chase nothing, now.]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Glancing up. ] Okay, so -- the vampire feels things for you?

[charring]

Big things of the 'no-longer-want-your-blood' way. [Mostly.] And since the desert I...feel things in return.

[yourbestguysgun]

[ A long pause. ] We're talking about the same thing here, the guy who bit you before, right?

[charring]

Tried to bite me. [Yeah. She doesn't get it, either.] And he's had millions of opportunities since and I don't understand this at all but he spent most of his time in the desert keeping anything from harming me. And it was weird.

[It was enough to change Charlie's opinion of him and that's a hard thing to change.]

[yourbestguysgun]

[ Leaning back against the counter, crossing his arms over his chest. ] Explain.

[charring]

You're going to get mad. [She is praying she's wrong here, Bucky.] I found him in our old building when the desert started. I'd hotwired a van and when I found Ed, I put blankets over the windows to keep him from frying. And then I found more people and it was decided I keep an eye on Ed and that meant following him around at night. Which meant sleeping during the day. The only place to sleep was in the van. With Ed.

[yourbestguysgun]

Okay, so you've been spending a whole lot of time hanging out with the vampire who tried to eat you, why would I be mad?

[charring]

[Oh, dear.] Because apparently helping each other survive in the desert was enough to change our feelings towards each other significantly.

[yourbestguysgun]

What do you mean?
