[Leipzig AU] Wakanda forever
Mar. 8th, 2022 12:34 pmA tense détente has settled over their group at the Center. As promised, T'Challa makes no public announcement of Bucky's asylum in Wakanda, and the Secretary of State – though he stays in Berlin, flying back and forth to Vienna to meet with the United Nations Security Council – doesn't press for Bucky to turn himself over.
Finally, they can focus on Zemo... not that it gets them all that far. It's not that he refuses to talk, it's that none of his answers mean anything. They're all frustratingly non-informative. He admits to seeking out Karpov for the manual, he admits to murdering and impersonating Broussard and attacking the United Nations.
He doesn't give anyone the words.
And he smiles, mild and unperturbed, no matter what anyone asks.
T'Challa spends his time interrogating Zemo and negotiating what will happen to him; Bucky assists the Wakandans, taking on the smokescreen role of advisor. Steve and Tony spend long hours with Everett Ross, hammering out ways for the Avengers – signed and unsigned – to work with the Task Force.
It means they all get to see each other regularly. After the first night, the Wakandans allow Sharon to come even without Steve, although they mostly overlap, and a few days pass without major incident.
On the third day, Sharon is in Ross's office as he goes over the options he's managed to drum up for Bucky.
None of them are any good, and they both know it. But they look anyway.
