As promised. With all necessary explanations and excuses for being from effectively a different generation. Not that this is limited to the musical achievements of the 60's. The Beatles are on here twice as a sort of tip of the hat to my time period. And heritage, I suppose.
[It's the first thing he thinks to do, the second he steps through into this world, still wearing the suit he had on before, a bag slung over his shoulder. He's standing in the city centre, and it takes him all of five seconds to take the iPhone-ish device and use it to call Kieren Walker.
When he gets the answering message, he lets out a breath he doesn't need to before speaking:] Hey, Kieren, it's Simon. They told me you were here, you and your sister. [He knows Kieren's been here a while, and, considering the nature of this place, he may have met someone else. Which, alright, so long as he's happy, but still...]
[It's been about a week since they last talked, and Bucky's a little worried about Kieren, though he can't for sure say why. Their last conversation was really too important to be had by text, and he's not sure Kieren got how much Bucky meant every word he said.]
[Late on in the afternoon of the second day (night, really), there will be a knock on Kieren's door. Armed with a massive bottle of cider and not much else, is Jem. There's no text to warn him; after leaving Petre's she goes straight to the shop, picks up a discounted, slightly wa 2 litre bottle and heads straight to Kieren's.
[He thinks for a long time about what he's going to say as he walks home from his wanderings around the city. He deletes what he's written several times, finally settling on something simple as his opener.]
I'm sorry, Kieren.
[He hits enter before he can stop himself, and if his heart could still beat it'd be pounding right now. He waits a few seconds then begins to type a follow up response.]
