Darcy's hand went to her side where she usually kept her taser. She found nothing but air which made sense. She didn't have her bag on her in the lab. She grimaced a little because while she knew she could give this dude the verbal lashing he deserved, she hated being at a disadvantage. Before the creep could go any further, another voice intervened. To her surprise, she came face to face with Bucky Barnes. Not how she'd see him now though. This was like he'd walked right off the pages of history book with his uniform and jauntily tipped hat.
She was so taken aback that wasn't able to give the man the piece of her mine like he deserved. Soon, she was getting an apology from him before he turned tail and made himself scarce. She blinked a little because this was all happening much faster than her brilliant brain could process.
She knew that she was staring at Bucky which was rude in of itself, but she was also blatantly checking him out. His smile made his eyes twinkle with devilish mischief. She could easily see how he'd gained the reputation of being a ladies' man. But it was so different from the man she'd seen around the present. That man had long hair. He hunched his shoulders as if physically trying to make his presence less intimidating. His eyes were haunted.
This Bucky didn't have any of that. She'd sent herself right into the past. She swallowed hard as she considered her options. "Thank you," she managed out. "Mind telling me today's date? Like with the year?"
