Shit, shit! [ Okay, think Bucky! This is the time when you usually shine best. Form a plan here! ] Okay.... Okay, here's what we say. You, a cute little orphan, were walking across the street. And this was not gonna stop! I just happened to be perched above and saw you and selflessly saved you from dying by shielding you in my heroic arms! That's what we're telling him...

[performance]

Me, a cute little orphan, huh. [ DEADPAN HERE. ] Who never had anyone to teach me to look both ways before I crossed the street...

[sidecars]

Exactly! See, see! You get this! So that's the story if the guy calls asking for your side of the story, okay? [ Bucky gives him his best hopeful look. ] Can you do that for me, buddy?

[performance]

Hmmmmm. Maaaybe, but... what do I get out of this arrangement?

[ BRIBE HIM. ]

[sidecars]

[ Bucky's eyes sort of drift down to the sidewalk. ]

Pie?

[performance]

Wasn't I the one offering to treat you?

[sidecars]

Look how the tables turn! Here, c'mon. [ Bucky opens an arm. ] I'll drop us down to the sidewalk.

[ Hopefully. ]

[performance]

Okay, okay. I'm trusting you... again.

[ Let's just sling an arm over Bucky's shoulders and lean into that arm. HOLD HIM CLOSE. ]

[sidecars]

Let's find out if you'll regret it.

[ He pulls Dick tight against the suit and drops down, letting his engines power on just before hitting ground. With a strong puff, they gently land on the sidewalk. Bucky flips up his helmet and grins, satisfied with his efforts. ]

Alright! Pie time! [ With a pat on Dick's back, he practically runs for the entrance. Pie pie pieeee~! ]
