[ drawn like a magnet, his hand moves the second steve's does in the same direction before he realizes what he's doing and immediately pulls it off the table entirely, tucked safely into his lap. safe for steve, mostly; reaching for him is an instinct, one he has near constantly and keeps having to tamp down. it's confusing and alarming and only ever makes sense when he sees bucky jostling one or the other playfully.
he wants to touch steve like that too, but he has to learn how. he has to learn so many things. ]
S'alright.
[ like humor and teasing. he even manages to look up at steve for this joke, even though it's still deadpanned and his hands are in his lap like a chastised child. baby steps. ]
