It's been too long since he's been this close to someone else. Come to think of it, the last time he had himself wrapped around someone else was probably with Steve, back in the war. It's been a long time since he's needed to be genuinely protective of anyone. The last time that happened... well. It's not like the Winter Soldier had been anything but a weapon; but Bucky is free of that. Hydra will never control him again.
"Do you?" he can't exactly hide the sadness from his tone. "Hardly anything looks the way it used to. Places have changed, this whole world has changed. It makes me feel like nothing that's happened is even real." But maybe that's the trauma talking. Shuri would say it's the trauma talking.
He takes a moment to respond, before answering, "It doesn't matter. We could always pick a place randomly on a map."
