[ He's lucky no one's stopped him from doing this, though he'd talked himself out of it for days since they stepped back on the Moira. Steve's been avoiding people more than he usually does, for certain reasons, and thanks to an interesting book that showed up in the mail, he's been reading to pass the time. About fish. He draws a few of them, settling on one in particular after reading about it.

Tucked in the usual place in Andyr's room is a folded piece of paper with a few fish sketched so that they're wrapped in flags like they're togas. It's the only thing he can think of to help bridge the gap. ]


Do you know about American flagfish? SR

I've been reading about them. You know, it's a lot more interesting than politics. [ Because those are the sorts of things he would find himself reading back home, what he filled his apartment with when he didn't have anything better to do, and for a few minutes, he doesn't know what else to say. Steve could probably tell him too much, even if it's not what he wants to do when he has no idea what he should do. Still, his fingers betray him anyway. ] It reminds me of you.

[ So I drew you a picture because I want you to think of me too. As if he'd ever send that despite thinking it for the last several days. ]

You're not missing much.

[ No one really likes politics, though he thinks the ideas behind them are interesting enough to know about, and that's where he's stuck for a while, rereading Andyr's messages and feeling... strange. Not confused. It certainly has nothing to do with that, not when he's thought about what had happened between them and what it could mean if there is ever more to it. Does he want more? Does he ask Andyr if they're okay? If he's okay? He's overthinking the smallest things, and Steve taps at his MID for far too long before finally continuing on with the conversation.

Better to pretend it didn't happen if that's what Andyr wants. ]
You could always use the door if you wanted to visit. [ And then, just as quickly: ] But it sounds like you have your hands full. How's it coming along?

[ The ironic thing about all of this is that he's not busy at all. In fact, he's sitting on the edge of his bed and staring between his MID and the doorway (and sometimes the vent) like he's going to show up right after he's practically asked him to. Steve drags a hand through his hair and keeps up the pretense as best he can, smiling a little at the mention of Bucky and the pup. ]

You're welcome here whenever you want. [ Yes, it is an invite. Yes, yes, yes. Does it sound normal? Is this even normal anymore? ] Things like that take time. I'm sure you're doing fine.

[ And he can hear it in the back of his head, all the ways his subconscious is telling him not to do it. Yet, he holds his breath and does it anyway. ]

If you can't come here, I can go to you. See your work-in-progress.

Give me a few minutes. Should I bring anything?

[ Because he's going to try to keep it simple and just... be the way they are, the way they always have been. He doesn't have to think about that night they shared or the implications of what it is or what it could be if he allowed it to sink even further beneath his skin than it already has. Yet, the prospect of getting that close to Andyr again makes him feel warm, much too hot, and Steve pulls at the collar of his shirt before getting up from his position on the bed and moving towards the door.

Oh, and: ]
What room is it?

[ He doesn't send a reply, trying to keep his steps steady and not seem as if he's rushing to see him. Maybe, in some way, he is, and there's a strange sort of anxiety to that, not knowing what it's going to be like when they see each other for the first time since that planet and the year that had gone by with them on it. Steve stands at the threshold of the door for a second or two when he gets there, watching him and conflicted. He'd never been good with situations like this. He'd never been in a situation like this. ]

It looks good so far. [ For some reason, it takes him a lot longer to say that than usual, but he's kind of glad something along the lines of you look good didn't come out of his mouth instead. He smiles, crossing the room to join him. ] What are you working on right now?
