Oct. 7th, 2022 10:29 amBefore Caleb's powers, he'd been a pretty friendly guy, who liked being around people. It's not so easy, anymore, though working with Obi-Wan helps. Caleb tries to be good about keeping up with his friends, even if he doesn't see them every single day. A text here, a suddengram DM there, and the occasional offer to hang out.
So he knows when one of them is gone.
Losing Rosie had been a blow that'd knocked Caleb's breath out of him for what felt like days. And now, feeling introspective and lonely, he heads out for his run. It doesn't take him long to realize his heart isn't in it. Usually, he runs to separate himself from people's feelings — well, and to keep fit. But he doesn't want to be alone right now. There are a few people he could text, still; he chooses Bucky.
They see each other plenty, enough to be friendly, and Bucky might not have to run to keep fit, but he probably still does, so Caleb texts him Be my running buddy? I'm at the park. You can bring Bopp. He adds a dog emoji, just for kicks. It'll be nice to just feel someone else close by, their focus turned toward the same thing. He settles in at the park to wait for Bucky's answer.
