Steve's groan is quiet enough not to draw attention but every bit as mortified that someone who knows him actually saw that thing. Himself, even. So much for claiming the days of being a dancing monkey were behind him. "That wasn't my idea, by the way."
It feels important to point that out, even if it seems to be doing some genuine good around here. Steve doesn't have to like it. He sees that tempted look on your face, Rogers. Isn't really discouraging it either. Withe everything that's happened up till now Steve's a lot more somber than he used to be but he's not incapable of smiling or having fun.
"I doubt your history's the same as mine, pal." Steve gives a weak shrug and the barest hints of the beginning of a smile. "I was stuck here in the Nexus for years before...well. Before." Before they became something else, he means.
