but that was also the last thing Sam had to offer to gain trust. what more can he do other than give the guy everything in his head? for a moment, he's just watching him from where he is in the chair, with a sad sort of expression on his face. maybe a measure pitying, even if he doesn't mean to be. but it is what it is. there's too much in this guy's head to be reasoned with right now. not by him, at least. sighing, he turns, back facing bucky, to sit backwards in the chair and look to steve instead. ]
I'm sorry, Steve, I tried. [ he tells him with an apologetic smile. ] That's all I got.
[ and since he's not sure he really can trust bucky to take care of him at this point, with wherever his head is, he scoots his chair enough to reach for the bruise on Steve's cheek. ] Hold still a second and try not to be a stubborn shit about it. [ a thumb touches at the bruise, pushing at the bone some, trying to make sure everything's okay underneath it. if it's more than just an irritated flinch steve gives him, that might be cause for concern. ]
If you need us, you know we're not far, right? I'll come check on you again tomorrow.
[ because fuck whatever problem Bucky has with it, Sam's not going to just ignore that his broodmate is out here in danger. ]
