[ Geralt's eyes snap up at that. ] Bucky? Sam's friend?
[ Steve's friend first, it seems. He's beginning to understand there's an entangled circle between Sam and Steve and Bucky, though it is not a relationship he has much insight into. He spoke to Bucky once or twice; recalls sharing an ale with him on the steps of Sam's home. He'd learned that Bucky was a soldier, and not much else. The man had vanished shortly afterwards. Not uncommon around these parts.
A contemplative expression settles over Geralt for a minute or two, as though he's rearranging the pieces of an unfinished puzzle in his mind. He'd known Bucky was important to Sam. That was clear when they first fled Thorne and Sam realized Bucky was left behind.
Only now is he putting together that the reason for that may have been because Bucky is important to Steve. ]
