he hadn't even realized how much he had been rambling on and on about his job until now, causing slight nervous laughter to escape his lips as one hand raised to rub against the back of his neck. ❝ i ... just realized i've done nothing but sit here and go on and on about my job, all i've done is talk about me and you haven't punched me and told me to shut up, kudos to you. ❞ light laughter filled the surroundings as he shook his head, always enjoying when he could talk about the good times he'd had on the force, especially towards someone like bucky was seemingly willing to listen to what he had to say. but he also didn't want to BORE him either, the last thing he wanted was for him to think that all he cared about was himself, because of course, he'd love to hear things about bucky. he knew he could get in trouble for talking to the opposing male instead of arresting him, but he felt like there was no need for him to be behind bars, caleb most definitely wasn't going to be the one to put him there. ❝ ------ you should tell me things about you ... before i keep letting my head get bigger with all this talk about me. ❞
