Aaaaand, as usual, you're embarrassing me, but thank you so much! I'm uncommonly proud of this one.

Thank you so much for calling it poetic--I hadn't been able to write in too long, and I guess it came out like that. ;->

Aw, but Bucky's heart is so gentle, I believe. He's kind of a Ferdinand the bull. And I love writing about the growing and processing of produce, so this was a golden opportunity for it--and I learned a lot about plums, researching for this fic!

Thanks again, bb. <3 <3
