[ Bruce drags a hand over his face before eying the feed carefully. Usually he wouldn't even touch a computer, because there's the problems with being traced and found and then there's the whole slew of problems that come out of that, but. He just got dragged out of an ocean by some entirely new and fascinating lifeforms after dying or he's just hallucinating something spectacular while the other guy goes and deals with whatever he's dealing with. He's not sure which is actually happening, but.

Either way. Can't hurt, right? ]

So... Uh. [ A deep breath as he tries to blink himself into more alertness but. There is a reason he's looking as raggedy as he does, and that was without an entre vous to turtletopia. ] L-look, I'm not trying to go and be, you know, rude or ungrateful or a-anything like that, but. This place is j- It's way, way too much for me, and. I mean, there's a swimming pool. Right in the next room over. And th- I'm not that guy.

[ He's rambling and he's tired, and. Shaking his head, he rubs at the back of his neck. ]

Anyway, er. If I could maybe downgrade, or... Point is, this is all a little more-- More than I'm used to. Thanks.

[ He grimaces and waves a hand. ]

Th- You don't have to. I'm not a "sir". At all or, you know. Ever. Just Bruce works.

But yeah, I'll. I've had a rough couple of days, and I'll probably sl- The point is I can sleep practically anywhere and I don't need all of this, so. It could get better use. That's what I'm saying.

It's a habit - apologies, Bruce. [Countdown until he calls him sir again is a go.] I'm Bucky.

I understand what you mean - I'd not been in living places this large before, really, until waking up here. But they might get earned, or something of the sort. If you'd like, after you get some rest, I could tell what I know. If nobody else does, of course, sometimes people who show up have people they know around already. Or who know them.

No problem, it's f- Just. Unnecessary, that's all.

I'd appreciate the info, thanks, since... Apparently the dead thing going on here has a whole kind of structure? I got the short version on the ride over, but. Er. I was a little out of it, to be honest.

Oh, don't worry about it. Not everybody here is dead. Some, but not all.

But, please. I have seen how people react to things when overly tired. Get some sleep, and the offer of information is definitely still open. Most of us are still out of it for the briefing, and, unless they've updated it, it's sort of missing important bits of information. Not that we have all of it, yet... hence it being better idea to dive into it fresh.

Right now, things seem to be settling a bit, the turtle can wait for you twelve hours or so.

[Beat.]

I mean... the city - and the surroundings - are on the back of a giant turtle. It's as much of this world as we can access, right now. Hence, the turtle can wait.

I caught that kind of thing, but. I'm most likely in that category of dead-- Deadness? Dead-ee? [ He frowns and shakes his head with a sigh. ] I don't even...

But okay, th- [ ........wait. ] ...Turtle.

In that case, I'm sorry. [And he is sincere, too. He knows exactly how that goes.]

Yeah. Even its head is several hundred kilometers across. It's a big turtle.

But it's a-- Turtle. [ Wrapping his head around that might take a while. Right, focusing. Kind of. Okay. ] Well. Supposed to happen to everyone eventually, right?

People who can fly have confirmed that, too. I suppose you could ask some of them to take you up so you see for yourself?

[Small shrug.] Eventually.

Fl- [ Right, right. People can do that. Okay. Time to get used to a new kind of things working. ] Right. Uh, n-no, I'm okay staying on the ground, thank you. Firmly so.

I completely understand - unless there's need to go anywhere by air, that is. [Not that Bucky is overly fond of aerial approaches at the best of times.]
