Natasha is grateful - if not a little surprised - to find herself with plans for the day. Considering she's just been doing the glamorous task of laundry, a break is more than welcome. She and Bucky share an unexpected sort of camaraderie that somehow seems entirely separate from what she remembers of the time he spent training her in the Red Room. She's more or less decided not to mention it. He's spent enough time wrestling with his memory that it feels cruel to drop something else on him.
After all, she's been the keeper of so many secrets over the years. What's one more?
At any rate, she's looking forward to spending some time with him one on one. When she hears the knock at the door, she leaves what's left of her laundry behind in her room and makes her way downstairs. She has a little two floor townhouse - emphasis on little, but she's made an efficient use of the space. Liho is curled up by the window, centered directly in the sunlight. There's a momentary pause when she hears his verbal knock-knock through the door, and when she opens it up, there's a hint of a smirk at the corner of her mouth. "I'm going to start expecting knock-knock jokes if you do that."
She's dressed casually, wearing an oversized sweater and leggings, hair loosely braided. The smirk turns into a genuine smile as she looks down at where Alpine's secured in his leather jacket. "Hi, beautiful," she greets the cat, holding her hand out so she can sniff her fingers and then butt her head against him. Only then does she move back so Bucky can enter, closing the door behind them.
Just past the little entry hall is her cozy living room, a fire going in the fireplace. Liho lifts her head as Bucky walks in and meows curiously as she sits up and moves into a stretch. With a chuckle, she moves over to her and scoops the cat up, letting her climb up to perch on her shoulders. "Guess we should see if these two get along, huh?"
