[for Spud]

It's almost quaint, Bucky thinks. Here he is, sitting across from a fellow vet, armed with a cup of tea sweetened with honey and a combat knife strapped on his thigh. He opted to shower first, as much for Spud's benefit as his own, and it makes for a surprisingly nice way to unwind after a long night's work, the pair of them sitting on Bucky's porch.

"Told you I did tea," he says, spooning more honey into his cup.

"I never doubted you for a moment, old boy." Laurie fully realized the absurdity of the situation and had decided, for the time being, to embrace it. There may not have been stranger teas than this, but it was nothing compared with how very uncomfortable sharing tea had been with his mother and Straike, or Ralph and Bunny.

Really, it was all quite peaceful. With the way things had apparently been going on beneath them, Laurie was determined to enjoy it as much as possible and Bucky seemed to feel the same.
