[ As everything settles, Steve just watches him. It'd always been something he'd done when he'd had the time, riding the subway or just wandering the streets in an effort to people-watch and understand what it is he'd missed all those years being frozen. Andyr doesn't remind him of home though. He makes him think of something else, of a brawling kid in the back alleys and what it had been like not to be so troubled by life and free. There's spirit in his smile and so much independence that he's almost envious of it. Almost. Steve just keeps grinning at him, pulling at the loose material of the shirt he's wearing to roll it up and pull it over his head in a mimic of Andyr's own movements. ]

I think we'll be okay. [ It's dark now, his MID glowing softly so they're not entirely without light, and it illuminates the now-permanent blue streak along his collarbone right above his heart, the not so white bandage wrapped neatly around the arm Andyr had bit. There's a soft pink stain to it, but Steve doesn't pay it any mind. He's not caring about anything except Andyr and the rush of the waterfall around them. ] If you get cold, I can warm you up.

[ The comment is completely casual, hardly an implication of more than what he had in mind when he said it. After all, there's a reason he'd made sure to spare the blankets, and it's easier to share body heat than suffer alone. Still, the events of the entire night are beginning to catch up with him, and he opens his mouth to elaborate before floundering a little and just flushing a bit instead. ]
