"Probably redundant. A little hard to say with these kinds of things. In Earth-8101, I'm a vampire monkey." He's not joking, but it's always a little hard to tell with him, since his delivery would be the same if he were. "Same name, though."

Bucky folds his arms over his chest, scanning her thoughtfully. Maybe he should be more skeptical under the circumstances. Someone who looks like Natasha assuming her identity for mysterious reasons sounds not unlike something Yelena would pull, depending on how their relationship was doing that day. And as strategies to keep him complacent go, this a little convoluted, but not impossible.

But there's really no easy way to test either possibility. Like he said, Earth-8101 Bucky is a vampire monkey. Any difference between the Natasha he knows an the Natasha he's looking at would be easily attributable to the difference between one earth and another.

He probably should have listened to Tony Stark when he was talking about the multiverse at some point. (Not that he'll ever tell Tony that.)

"But there's not much about Natasha that I don't know."
