Oh, you can't grow out of asthma. Symptoms can lessen, but it never really goes away, just... lies in wait.
[ and yet steve has no more asthma! no, he won't be explaining. not immediately, anyway.
he huffs a chuckle, corner of his mouth turned up in a not-quite smile. ]
You sound like my friend. He didn't think I should be trying to fight everybody either.
[ it could easily have come out annoyed, but the fond warmth in steve's voice is unmistakable—this is a very favorable comparison. everyone should be like bucky, bucky's great!!!
anyway, what's money for if not to use? they're steve's chips, he can do what he wants with them, and what he wants is to burn this monstrosity. ]
Well, if you're not going to tell me no...
[ this time steve's smile is wider, more mischievous, as he looks around for an employee. it's not hard to find one, despite how he'd been sure there was no one else around just a second ago; as soon as steve turns his head there's an employee at his elbow asking if they can help him with anything. he just wants to buy the costume, but— ]
No, I don't need to try it on, I just want to buy—no, really, I don't need to try it on!
[ the employee is very insistent. someone needs to try this costume on before they can sell it. ]
