[ Steve never did get how anyone can be okay working around so many secrets, so that kind of attitude about all this is beyond him.
His expression hardens a bit at the question. ]
I'm here because he's not going to do this for himself. [ Probably. Bucky has a very limited way of expressing himself these days. Given the 70 year HYDRA track record of no agency Steve isn't entirely comfortable with deciding things in his friend's name either, but he's trying not to look like it. He promised he would do something. ] Sharing medical records above your pay grade too?
[ Don't look at Dagger. He was a worker drone back home; he's fine with little to no agency. It's part of why he's partial to Barnes; he gets him, just a bit. ]
No, but it's above yours pretty sure.
I'm not going to kill him, if that's why you're worried. Not gonna try and get him killed too much, either.
what is this time travel sorcery didn't he text-equivalent of hang up on you
This isn't a case of "he can't take care of himself," right? You're smart, you wouldn't still be here talking to me if you weren't. You get what's wrong with him.
I don't. [ A beat, expression clouded. ] I don't get what's wrong with him.
[ Steve just found out his friend wasn't dead like a week ago, the file Natasha gave him taken before he could read it. He's only spoken to him twice since they got here, and both times were to stop him from killing someone else and hurting himself. Steve's figuring this all out as he goes and Dagger just caused last night's problem because a) he doesn't quite get it either and/or b) he did it on purpose to see what would happen. Steve needs to know which it is. ]

The answer doesn't do much to change the face he's making. ]
That leaves a lot of in-between.
[ Which is also what he's worried about
and doesn't like you. Bucky's last employers didn't want him dead either. ]i'm finding hidden notifs, don't judge
[ Honestly, he's glad he didn't too. ]
