[Bucky knows someone is moving in below him, because all of a sudden there are muffled noises coming through his floor that weren't there before. He can't help but wonder who it is that's moving into that apartment and what sort of person they'll be, the apartment block might be shitty but it's his safe space and he is very conscious of all the other people who live there.
He lives in apartment 4C, and he knows the people in 4B, 4D, and 5C pretty well because they're the ones who box him in directly, and so the ones that might pose the biggest threat to him. Well... he says he knows them, he means that he's spied on them and he knows of them. He does actually know the woman in 4B, she's nearly ninety and has a bad hip, so sometimes he goes around and helps out and she gives him cookies. She had a husband in the army and so she knows never to make loud noises or come up behind him unexpectedly, they get on well. There's a family in 4D, a loud and argumentative family who are always swearing at each other. 5C is a single man, businessman, who is literally only there to sleep and nothing else.
And now 3C, the person below him, the mystery new tenant.
If it had been any other apartment, Bucky probably wouldn't have bothered going down, but he needs to know who's underneath him. So he snags the mailbox key from his sideboard, he stole it after the last people in 3C moved out so that he'd have a reason to visit the new tenant, and slouches down the stairs to knock on the door.]
