[It was selfish, Daisy knew it, trying to rewrite time in order to save her mother. She can already picture Fitz shouting at her, naming all of the reasons it was dangerous. And yet...

She dresses as she best to match the 1940s, but with only what she has in her closest and some reference pictures she found on google she barely passes for that time period. She's not going straight for her mother. She's going to the man who tortured her mother, killed so many Inhumans. Daisy is going to kill Daniel Whitehall before he has the chance to hurt anyone.

It's early in the morning, well before anyone is up, when Daisy puts her plan into action. So with a gun in her purse, along with lipstick and her cell phone(as if it will even work), Daisy puts in the coordinates and just hopes it works. She's not nearly as well versed with all of this as Fitz.

There's a pull at her stomach, like going down a steep hill before her body lurches forward and she's no longer in the safety of the bunker.

Shit. She hadn't accounted for the cold. Arms wrapped around herself, Daisy looks around. This--

Definitely doesn't look like Germany. At least not from the pictures she's seen. Trying to get her bearings, Daisy knocked hard in the shoulder before hands reach out to steady her as she stumbles. Her first instinct is to go tense, hands balling into fists as this stranger asks if she's okay]


Oh, sorry.

[Daisy laughs it off when they joke about her not being dressed for the weather. But her laugh fades when the stranger makes a lewd comment, offering to warm her up.]

I think I can manage that one on my own.

[He doesn't seem to take the hint, laughing at her remark that was definitely not her being playful. She's growing more frustrated by the minute, realizing this is definitely not Germany and that she's only been here for two seconds and already being hit on by some guy that is definitely dead now. It's when he tries to place a hand on her waist and pull her closer, not taking no for an answer, that she makes a grab for his hand and starts pushing his fingers back towards his shoulder.]

You really don't want to do this.

[A few people have started to gather, surprised and shocked at what she was doing and not the reason behind it. She was well aware times were different, but, that wasn't going to stop her from defending herself.]

[Everything happens so fast that, for a few seconds, Daisy just stares dumbfounded. Not because some guy stepped in 'took care of it', but because he wasn't just 'some guy'. He was Bucky Barnes. Bucky Barnes was talking to her.

Oh, right, he was talking to her.]


What? Oh, no. He was just--

[Daisy waves a hand vaguely in the direction the guy had walked off in. The crowd has broken up now too and the chilly air is settling its way into her bones, arms wrapping around herself.]

I'm okay. He was just being a creep.

[Bucky Barnes is offering her his coat. She's definitely staring at him for too long, it's hard to keep the surprise off her expression.]

I, uh--

[Daisy looks around again, trying to figure out what street she was on because it's very apparent now that she's in New York.]

What street am I on?

[And because that sounded weird...

Daisy leans in closer, as if a little ashamed but also finding it funny.]


I had a little too much to drink.

[Crap. Home. She was prepared for a completely different scenario here, and while she’s decent at thinking on her feet, she’s not as well versed with Manhattan in the 1940s.

Surprised when he puts his coat around her shoulders, Daisy doesn’t smiles politely as she thinks of what to say.]


Oh, you don’t have to do that. I’m staying at a hotel a few blocks away.

[How the hell did she mess up the settings so bad that she ended up here]
morethan084: (confused/curious)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Daisy opens her mouth to tell him that she's okay, but, she really has no place to go. No money and the cold is really starting to get to her now as she hugs his coat closer to her body.

He introduces himself, despite knowing exactly who he is, she reaches a hand out to shake his hand.]


Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Barnes.

[There's no point of her coming up with some sort of alias, it's not like she's even alive for another 40 something years.]

Daisy Johnson, and you know what? I'll take you up on that offer.

[She won't stay long, she just needs to figure out what her next move was now that her entire plan was ruined.]

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Daisy.

[Well damn, the pictures and footage she's seen of him in the few history classes she went to didn't do him justice. When he turns, Daisy checks him out quickly before her eyes land back on his as she follows him. Eyebrows shooting up in surprise when he's quick to come up with a reason why she would be with him.

It seems a little extreme but she doesn't question it, maybe this is frowned upon? Daisy snaps out of her thoughts when he asks where she's from, almost slipping up and saying here.]


California. Guess I under prepared for the weather you guys have here.

[That's why she's without a coat, obviously.]

What about you?
morethan084: (sad)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Daisy keeps her head low, keeping the icy winds from hitting her face as she thinks about how she’s going to get out of this situation. Does she just go running back home with her tail between or legs? Or does she find a way over to Germany? Is there even a way to get there right now? Hell, she doesn’t even know if she’s anywhere close to the right time.

When he asks her a question that she thought might come up after his last one, Daisy pushes a few strands of hair out of her face. Schooling her expression to be a little mournful.]


A funeral. Guess I wasn’t thinking straight when I packed. What with my uncle passing away and all.

[Daisy smiles a tight lipped smile, feeling a little guilty for lying to him about something like that. Not that she hasn't been lying to him about basically everything since they met though.

She's can walk in heels just fine, but she definitely prefers boots to them. Still, she makes sure she's holding onto the railing as she follows behind him.]


You live by yourself?
morethan084: (small smile)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Smiling more sincerely at his joke, Daisy shrugs off his coat when they enter Bucky's apartment. Already a lot warmer from having walked up all those flights of stairs, Daisy fixes her hair a little. Not that it looked that great to begin with considering she didn't have the time or tools to properly pin curl her hair.]

Coffee would be great.

[Her blood is basically made up off of coffee. Maybe that's a problem, but not to her. Rubbing her hands together, Daisy isn't sure if it's better to sit or just stand awkwardly by the door.]

Do you usually pick dames up off the street like this?

[She's not actually concerned about him trying anything, which is why she feels it's okay to make a joke.]
morethan084: (coy/amused)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure if that's a compliment or not.

[Daisy teases, allowing him to lead the way into his home before taking a seat at the small table. It's definitely small, but she can only imagine how expensive a place like this would go in her time. Still holding onto her purse, Daisy places it in her lap causally, as if there's not a gun in there.]

I've had better.

[Daisy admits. Only it's not because her make believe Uncle died. Spotting a newspaper on the table, Daisy turns it to look at the date while his back is to her. 1941. Oh, she fucked up. Big time. Maybe drinking wasn't a bad idea, but she's not about to ask him if he's got anything.]

You said you just got off a double shift? Where do you work?

[She talks casually, as if she's not on the verge of exploding from a whole mixture of emotions.]

morethan084: (hovering)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Daisy's lips pressing together when he, subtly, calls her bluff. At least on the front of her not having a place to stay right now. She could've figured it out, but it might've been harder with no technology to help her in getting a room.]

Don't really have a plan, wasn't really thinking that far ahead.

[There's still anger brewing in her. She wants nothing more than to go through with her plan, but how was she supposed to do that now? She needs to get back home, but is that even a guarantee?]</small
morethan084: (understanding)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I really can't take you up on that.

[Daisy shakes her head at his offer. This was a bad idea, agreeing to even come here with him. She should've just stuck with her story and went to a hotel. She feels guilty with how kind he's being to her, when her intention was to kill someone.

She also feels awful for him. He seems so nice, and yet she knows he'll become a killer soon enough he'll be manipulated by HYDRA to do their dirty work.]


I'll be okay, really. I've been through worse.

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-11 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Pressing her lips together, Daisy looks down at the pie and coffee in front of her. She's even less hungry now than she was a few minutes ago as the guilt gnaws away at her stomach.]

I appreciate that, but, I can't.

[What if she let something slip? It could screw up the whole timeline. Fitz was going to chew her head off whenever she managed to get back.]
morethan084: (talkingdown)

[personal profile] morethan084 2021-06-12 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Eyebrows rising up in surprise, Daisy opens her mouth to say something before shaking her head.]

It's not--

I'm just going where the road takes me.

[As long as that road leads to Germany, somehow.]

Haven't you ever wanted to just go somewhere without putting too much thought into it?
