[Bucky follows Steve's gaze down to the pavement, unsure of how to move or what to say. Part of him wants to tell Steve that he's not the Bucky from the past, that he's dangerous, that anyone in their right mind would lock him up or execute him. He's a killer, a criminal, and nothing like the charmer he's seen in pieces of Steve's memories. If he was, they wouldn't be having this conversation.
The helplessness, though, he can understand, to feel like everyone around him is moving so fast when he's standing still. Combined with keeping a death pact secret would frustrate anyone, including Steve.
Instead of saying anything, he flits through his memories for the argument the day after, when Sam was pissed and Bucky was a coward.]
