i couldn't think of a consistent naming scheme this time
WHO: James/Bucky + YOU!
WHERE: around town!
WHEN: between 8/7 and 8/17
WHAT: new arm who dis (aka: James has a brand new arm to fit his brand new shoulder! Please come watch him get used to it and do such things as, scale a tree like a squirrel, accidentally set off EMPs, blind people with his chrome shoulder.)
WARNINGS: none, other than like. maybe some excessive violence to inanimate objects?
A. somebody please bring a frisbee to this so i can get some regains
[ Now that he's got a new arm, James is trying it out in the wild. So it's easy to pass him by on the street, or the park, or maybe even near the university, wearing a t-shirt or just a tank top, and stretching his arm and shoulder out in a variety of ways. Tricep, bicep, deltoid, he's stretching them all out like he's getting ready for a wrestling match. Except he's not.
Maybe you catch him throwing darts. He brought a few from home (the metal kind, because James Barnes does not mess around) and now he's using the left arm to toss them at the trees (while also trying to avoid any people who might cross between him and the trees), sinking them deep into the bark. Then he collects them again, and goes again. His aim is remarkably good. But darts get boring very quickly--there's only so much you can do with them.
Or maybe you catch him a little bit after, when he's gotten bored of darts but has nothing else to do. And for lack of anything else, he just starts....climbing a tree. The tallest one around. By straight up hooking his metal fingers deep into the tree and crawling up like a squirrel--albeit much more slowly. ]
B. broken - seether ft. amy lee
[ He still isn't sure how it works, though. Oh sure, he's got the basics down, the moving it around and what have you. But he doesn't realize it can do anything else. So maybe you drop your phone and he leans down to pick it up. Maybe you're in line behind him at the vending machine. Maybe James wants to adjust the air conditioning a little in the room. Who knows what he's doing and when, and near who!
But something is definitely about to short circuit and break. ]
C. all that glitters isgold chrome
[ Something James did not foresee with this arm is how shiny it is. It is blindingly shiny. He spent about half the day walking outside nearly blinding himself before he finally gave up and bought himself a pair of sunglasses.
But that doesn't help everyone else he passes on the street who's now being subjected to the terrifyingly bright glow of sunlight emanating from his arm. People might start going blind. The shine reflecting off his shoulder is probably roasting a bird or two alive in the trees. The only respite from the glow is the red star painted on the deltoid. Godspeed, poor passers-by.
Meanwhile, James is beginning to sweat more and more as he realizes that hey, actually, metal heats up! Kind of a lot, in the sun! He takes a break on a park bench, guzzling a bottle of water like a dying man in the desert. He might start dripping sweat soon. ]

A deep groan, "I really hope this isn't something else in the city going wrong." Togusa starts to move around the machine, looking for its plug.
"You already put your money in?" he asks, absently, still paying full attention to the machine, in case it sparks again.

Or...he shocked it? He's not quite sure, really--he definitely felt a jolt of electricity there, but it didn't hurt.
