Something in Common (for boldygoing )

[juststeverogers]

Steve's had a quiet set of holidays with his Pokemon in his small Nexus apartment but with the New Year over and done with things are picking up again. He's resumed his house hunting with gusto, spurred on by some advice he'd received from fellow denizens during the Yule party he attended nearly a month ago now.

Today, however, Steve's got the apartment cleared and training equipment set up again. Bucky's laid claim to the couch. It's too cold lately for him to get outside and stretch his wings as much as he'd like. Ethel's drug her bed over next to the couch to keep the braviary company. Only Sarah's overly active, running arouns Steve's feet in circles. Are they going to go running? IS he going to do inside training? Both?! Who knows?!

She positively jumps at the knock at the door.

"Grow grow grow!!!" OH BOY are there friends over? Steve. Steve! There's someone at the door!

"I heard it, already!" Steve laughs as he pulls the door open. "Hey there."

"Hey yourself." Unlike last time, Jim Kirk greets Steve with a smile and means it. Time and rest have done him some favors, but more than that, the fourth of January is done and over with 'til next year, and his counterpart is alive and well. His mood is worlds better than it has been these past few months, a glimpse of the happy relaxed captain that Steve first met at the Halloween party, before everything went to shit. It's taken time and he's still got a ways to go, but he's on the upswing, and looking forward to a proper workout session, not just punching his way to exhaustion. "Good to see you again. You too," he adds towards Sarah. Can't leave her out of it, especially when she's obviously so happy to see him.
