The White Wolf's New Life

The White Wolf's family opinions pt. 4

Thor and Loki

Dr. Simon was a bit jittery when he decided to talk to Thor and his brother, Loki. Part of it was because his second favorite Avenger was Thor. The other part was that Loki made him nervous. He was in Manhattan at the time of the attack and he remembered almost losing his life when an alien dropped out of nowhere in front of him. So there was a bit of tension when they walked through the door.

"You must be Bucky's therapist?" Thor asked.

"Yes, I am Dr. Simon. You two can take a seat here." Thor and Loki took a seat in front of him then Dr. Simon noticed the dog. "I didn't know you had a service dog."

"Her name was Sassy but I changed it to Frigga after my mother. She helps with my seizures."

"So a little like Harley is for Bucky?"

"I couldn't get a dog like Harley because they claimed Harley was more of a therapy dog."

"She is. You wanted a psychiatric service dog?"

"Yes."

"But you understand why you were denied one, right?"

"They do the same thing."

"Well, they may do the same thing but Frigga and Harley have different task."

"Frigga lays on my lap and I've seen Harley do it."

"Yes, Harley does it after a seizure but it is also a grounding pressure outside of seizures."

"Whatever."

"He was also upset that he could not get the same breed as Harley." Thor chimed in.

"Bucky needed a heavier dog than a golden retriever. Plus great danes are not the easiest to train when it comes to being a service dog."

"Yes, whatever. Can we get this started?" Loki frowned. Dr. Simon tried to remember that this was for the sake of Bucky, so he had to remain calm and he's heard some interesting things about Bucky's relationship with these two.

"Alright, any of you can tell me if you've met Winter or James."

"I've met Winter long ago. Captain Rogers went on a mission and he wanted to see if I could handle the young one. I had been forewarned that Bucky acts different when Rogers is not around and I took upon that challenge. He was difficult to handle to say the least. Winter came out when he watched something on the television. Someone fell from a train on the screen and Winter cane out and attacked me. I, unfortunately, had to knock him out."

"Oh," That was a new one. If Dr. Simon remembered correctly, Winter and Bucky were created after James fell. So James must have been caught in a memory causing Winter to react. "Any interaction with James?"

"Unfortunately no."

"And Loki, I'm taking your silence as you haven't met them either?"

"No." Loki said.

"Okay, now tell me how you feel about Bucky?"

"I'll go first." Thor offered. "Bucky is certainly difficult to handle when Steve is not around. I've seen him act like an angel around everyone but when Steve or even Natasha leaves, he acts up. I've never understood that."

"Bucky has figured out who he can push around to act like that, especially when he wants something. For example, sweets. Bucky can ask Steve probably two or three times for something sweet until he says no and he might drop it. But when he's with someone, say Sam, he knows exactly how to get what he wants because he knows he can manipulate him. It's all about what he wants and who he can push around to get it."
