[Bucky doesn't try to get Steve to talk once the two have left, brushing his hand through Steve's hair, down his back. Steve being quiet doesn't worry him. Not right now. He'll need than that to be concerned, because as far as he can tell, Steve is healthy right now. They have modern medicine on their side, Wakandan medicine. He doesn't think there's another country on Earth where they'd be better off.]
Yeah. Across lifetimes, it feels like.
[He's been ready to quit for a long time now. So he doesn't have to keep fighting, so he can finally move on with his life. Being a farmer isn't easy work by any stretch, but it's work he wants to do. It's work he can do without fear of harming anyone else.
When Steve speaks, he leans his head onto the other man, looking at him warmly.]
Gonna have to make sure our house has some good heating, it can get cold at night.
[His smile is happy, because he's tired. Because Steve's tired. They're a couple of centenarians who pass as thirty-somethings. They have a lot of time left. Most of their lives.]
