the glimpse had been a brief one, but he’d seen her, and even after everything, there was no doubt that that was his sister. the sight, well–a lifetime ago he’d have thought it impossible, but no, because there she was. he wanted to approach at first sight, but–no. no, because she was smiling, she was laughing, she was happy, and he’d already done enough damage in the world already, no point in ruining her day.
so he’d waited, waited until she’d begun the walk back to her apartment, waited until they could talk alone. he’d made an effort to go quietly, but no, she heard him.
“ …yeah, yeah, it’s me. ” i read your obituary. “ could ask you the same question. “
a soft chuckle escaped her lips. her brother was here, in front of her. he had survived the war and now they were meeting face to face for the first time. a part of her was a LITTLE angry at steve who had helped her get things established once she came back. he could have told her about her brother so she was curious as to why he had left that little detail out.
taking a small step forward, she looked her brother up and down, taking in every single detail that she could. he looked just as she remembered him except the hair was longer. as she looked down, she noticed something shine in the afternoon sun. she noticed that his one hand was made of metal; or so she thought. looking back up, she bit down on her lip.
“ I don’t know how it’s possible. I really really don’t. is there some place we can go to talk? ”
rebecca ADORED THE SUMMERTIME. she loved feeling the sun on her face and the wind blowing her hair around. there was something about the summer that made her feel as light as a feather; like she was floating on a cloud. that particular summer she and a few friends decided to travel to bucharest, romania. one of her friends had some family there so they were staying with them that summer.
she was having fun learning the language and culture of the country. one afternoon, she went to the small corner market to pick up fruits for a pie they were making when SHE SAW SOMEONE out of the corner of her eye. after paying she slowly turned around but realized there was no longer anyone there. letting out a sigh, she thought it was simply a trick of the mind and began her walk home. as she reached the small apartment complex she heard a creak behind her and quickly turned around; her EYES GREW WIDE at who she saw.

01. first off I do not claim to be Rebecca Barnes or Troian Avery Bellisario. Rebecca Barnes belongs to the creative minds at Marvel (I also don’t have any connections with them either). This is simply a role play account. All writing and head canons on this account come from my own mind and therefore do belong to me.
02. this blog is currently private & selective which means I will only interact with mutuals unless stated otherwise. this goes for starter calls, memes, etc. there might be a time where I will tag something ( open to all. ) which means everyone can reply but other than that, everything is mutuals only.
03. with that being said, this is my portrayal of Rebecca so please no god - moding. I will control my muses actions and you can control yours. if there is something that you feel you need to write to move the story line forward, please let me know and I’m sure we can work something out.
04. I have a few other blogs that I run so I split my time between those blogs and here. If I don’t get back with you right away that’s why but I try to reply to everyone within a few days. if for some reason I haven’t responded to you in over a week please feel free to send me a message.
05. Rebecca is a character that is not mentioned much in the comics other than being Bucky's sister and she was also not mentioned in the MCU. So therefore I have shifted things around to make her fit into the MCU. If you would like to know more about my intrepretation of Rebecca you can click here.
06. like I mentioned above, I try to reply to everything within a few days of receiving them. I am a full time college student so sometimes my replies will be a bit slow (school always comes first). so I don’t get behind or anything, I put most of my replies in the queue and have them post that way.
07. all of the icons and graphics on this page were created on me so please do not steal them. if you would like something made, please don’t hesitate to ask and I can see what I can do for you. I’m not the biggest fans of commissions so I won’t ever charge anyone for anything.

Rebecca Eloise Barnes was born in Brooklyn, NY on October 28th, 1923 to George and Winfred Barnes; the youngest of four. The apple of her parents eye, she was raised to be a proper young woman who would make any young suitor swoon. She was intelligent with a great sense of humor but she also knew how to bend the rules. Growing up, you could always find her hanging out with her brother James and his best friend Steven. She and her siblings grew even closer once their parents passed away and James became their legal guardian.
Once her brother went off to war, Rebecca married young and had three children of her own; the oldest son she named after her brother. Despite a few hardships, Rebecca managed to live a simple life. On November 1, 2013 surrounded by her children and grandchildren, Rebecca passed away four days after her 80th birthday.
REBECCA E. BARNES Wife, Mother & FriendOctober 28, 1923 - November 1, 2013
Less than one year after Rebecca passed away, she found herself awake in the middle of a clearing. Afraid, Rebecca ran and found herself far away from her hometown of Brooklyn, NY. She knew enough of the landmarks of this new city to realize that she was now in Washington, D.C. As she walked along the streets, she managed to glance into a reflective surface to see that she was no longer the 80 year old woman who lived in a nursing home; she was back to her old self -- her 18 year old self. It was then that she was approached by a familiar face -- Steven Rogers. She had heard about him time and time again, but she mainly kept a low profile. He had his new life and it was one that she was not a part of anymore.
With his help, she managed to secure a small apartment that was kept off of S.H.I.E.L.D.S radar. It seemed as if she was given another chance at life and that, she was not going to take advantage of. Rebecca managed to get into Georgetown University to study Business. During those four years, a ghost from her past came around. She found out about her brother and the evil that he had done. Knowing that all of it had been out of his control, once she graduated in the spring of 2018 she enrolled at Harvard Law School where she currently resides and works as a legal aide for one of her professors. With what freetime she does have, Rebecca uses her skills to help her brother and his friends stay below the radar.
