[ He leaves the first question alone, for a minute. He'll get back to that one later. ]

The one with the Nazis.

[ She was from Ukraine, right? They probably remember it better than the Americans. ]

[sestra]

[ there's a pause. ]

You are looking very good for old man.

[ she knows all the horror stories, both about the nazis and the soviets that followed. how parts of ukraine even welcomed the nazis at first because the soviets had already been brutalizing them. beginning to end, ukraine was fucked from all sides. ]

[deadthenred]

Maybe not as old as you're thinkin'. [ He's not sure why he says that. It doesn't matter. ]

But yeah, I get that a lot.

[sestra]

So you are not very old man, with very forgetful past.

Why do you tell me this? [ she likes that he has, simply because it means she is a person who can be talked to. but she still doesn't get... why. ]

[deadthenred]

[ Why, Bucky? He did go through a period where he'd tell anyone what he'd done, like a confession without a priest. Is that what he's doing, here? ]

I wanted you to understand, what you saw in the dream. I would've hurt you— probably. [ It didn't get that far, did it? ]

But I won't now. [ Not like that, anyway. ]

[sestra]

Lots of people have hurt me. [ she points her taco at him, sounding very casual. ] My sister stabbed me once.

[ more like impaled but semantics. ]

Why is now different for you? Because of your memory?

[deadthenred]

That doesn't make it okay.

[ She knows that, right? ]

And yeah. I— a friend gave me my memories back. Made me remember who I am.

[ The good and the bad. And there was a lot of bad, but some good too. ]

They did a lot of stuff with me. To me. To take advantage of what I didn't know.

[sestra]

[ hmmm, but really, what is okay and not okay??? ] It was self defense. [ a beat. ] For her.

[ so technically THAT part was probably ok. ]

Tomas did this to me also, but was not memory problem. I do not care what you did. [ he said he would have hurt her, so the implication that he's hurt others is there. she just... doesn't care about what he might have done. ] And you remember now, so problem is over, yes?
