[ Kobra snorts as he leads them to the door to his room. ]
Probably had a real mundane name back when I was a kid, but I don't remember it and if my brother remembers, he hasn't bothered to mention. No one in the Zones uses those names, anyway.
[ He pushes the door open and holds it for Bucky. ]
I guess it's for the best. You're more mysterious this way.
[ And women always like mysterious. Too bad mysterious for Bucky meant detached, which makes him lonely, which is why he finds himself in another man's hotel room looking for uncomplicated sex.
Lordy lord.
At least the room is impressive. It's all this aquatic blue and futuristic lighting that makes Bucky go "Oooo!" ]
So how're we doin' this exactly?
[ They might as well get right down to it. He does like the guy, but chit-chat could have stayed at the beach. It's not the reason they came all the way up here. ]
Sometimes you wanna try something new? Sometimes she wants to try something new, too.
[ He shrugs. ]
Never put much thought in. Just kinda go with whatever's goin' as long as it's fun, y'know? And there's other stuff we can do if you don't wanna do that.
[ How is this guy so flippant about it? Not that there's anything wrong with flippant sex, that's why Bucky is here in the first place. But this is practically deviant! ]
I— you're the one'd be gettin' fucked, you know that, right?
[ Bucky's close enough now that he can poke Kobra in the chest, which he takes full advantage of. ]
[ Kobra leans back, hands on his hips. There are times when those words would be a fun lead-in to a kinky night, but that's really not how he's reading the tone there. ]
Wow, do you talk to women like that? 'Cause I'm startin' to wonder if you got any experience at all. Payin' for it don't count.
SCREAM THIS IS BUCKY'S SHOCKED AND OFFENDED FACE RIGHT HERE!!
I don't pay, jerk! [ Ohhh son, you are getting it down. Bucky's poke turns to more of a shove, right back where the bed is several feet behind Kobra. ] I am well versed in makin' a dame crazy, thank you!
[ Kobra stumbles a little because he wasn't expecting it, but then he grabs for that hand lightning-quick. It's not like he doesn't have his own moves. He knows how to fight. ]
So what, then? 'Cause I'm a guy, you think you don't gotta treat me nice?
[ Though on some level, Bucky's indignation is kind of amusing. ]
Swear people got the weirdest hang-ups 'round here.
I'm—I'll treat you nice! [ Bucky is a gentleman through and through, although he's starting to see where this is false. He takes the machismo down a peg, or two, or ten. ] I mean, as long as... You treat me nice.
Yeah. [ He wrinkles his nose, but it's not from distaste exactly. It's consideration; does he want to do this? Something tells him the guy won't care that much, or start shit behind his back for it if he walks right out the door. But that's not the sort of person Bucky is. He follows through with his plans, even if they are terrible ones, and this one remains to be decided.
So he plants his hands on the man's shoulders and kisses him. Of course it's pretty soft, Bucky is a gentleman after all, not a dog. His tongue catches the top of Kobra's lip and immediately pulls back with a hard laugh. ]
Ahh you're so salty!
[ All that water they played in is coming around full force to bite them in the ass. ]
Hey, what's wrong with picky? You think I ask just any naked punk on the beach to go back to his hotel room? Of course not!
[ And, heading to what he assumes is the bathroom, he pulls his damp shorts off like it's no big deal. And it isn't. This Bucky gets, just being naked in front of another guy. The Army strips every man of their modesty in situations like this. ]
Slutty? [ The hell does that mean? Then he hazards a guess. ] You mean easy, don't you? Excuse you, pal! What I am is spiteful, so you better watch out.
[ Of course, he says this as if he would walk out the door just because, but after seeing this bathroom... That'll be hard. ]
Holy moley! It's like a palace in here! [ There's a beautiful glass shower and a giant bathtub that could easily fit four. ] Gonna be hard goin' back to communal showers when we leave this place.
[ Walking up to the shower, he slides the glass door open and looks for knobs or anything that remotely looks like an on switch. ]
[ Kobra would like to point out that there's nothing wrong with being easy and that it's always served him well, but then Bucky's all over the shower and he gets distracted, too. ]
Hadn't even seen a real shower that worked 'til the Moira, so it won't be too hard for me.
Holy cheese on toast. How did you wash? Tell me there was a river. Or a puddle.
[ Not that Bucky can really talk. He's had to sacrifice hygiene for weeks on end on the front. So, it's not so much a judgmental thing, more a sympathetic wince. Definitely. ]
Okay, we are two smart fellas. We're not gonna let a hunk of glass win. Give us your damn water, shower—Ahh!
[ The shower head springs to life from Bucky's words. ] Uhmm... Alright. Thank you? [ He tests it with a hand and the water's perfect. ] Ooo! Hurry get in, before it changes its mind!
[ Bucky hops on in under the warm spray, humming pleasantly. ]

[ When Kobra mentions his name, or lack thereof, Bucky has enough sense to look embarrassed. ]
Oh. Yeah, sorry... Jim Barnes. Not as exciting as Kobra Kid, but then I guess not much is.

He dumps the clothes he'd been carrying on a chair and turns to Bucky. ]
How do you want to do it?
[ There's an amused smile on his face as he moves closer. ]
no subject
I'm top.
no subject
That's fine. Have you, uh... done this before?
[ Because he's getting a vibe, but he's really not above teaching a guy how to fuck him. ]
no subject
'Course I have! I've gotten around. Just, you know, not with... fellas so much. [ Then, of course, he turns it into a challenge. ] That a problem?
no subject
No, but have you had anal with a woman? 'Cause it's kinda different. You gotta do a little more beforehand.
no subject
[ Why is this even coming up in conversation?? ]

Water was only for drinkin'. Couldn't waste it on anything else.
[ He crowds into Bucky's space under the spray with a playful grin. ]
Hi.
no subject
[ Bucky's eyes flit down Kobra and back up. ]
You look happy to see me.
