[In the corner of Bucky's mind, he keeps forgetting that Sam didn't know the other Bucky. Steve did, but Sam never did. Only seen pictures reminds him of this and for a moment he's genuinely glad Sam never knew him before, never looked at him with horror and shock. To Sam, he's just Bucky.
He breathes out, seven-eight-nine-ten-eleven, and breathes in again, one-two-three-four-five-six, before he leans back against Sam.
He's just Bucky.
There's a silent acknowledgment of Sam's proposition, of trying things until they figure out the best option. For now, this is livable, the braids and feathers are enough to keep him grounded in the here and now with Sam.
The mirror's just close enough that he can tap it with the end of his stump, something he's not really ever done before. His left arm mostly goes unused except to prop open books or stabilize himself against something. It's a strange sensation touching it to metal and there's a little bit of a spark that makes him pull it back immediately.]
(What about this other guy in here?) [Talking about Sam's reflection.] (I like his eyes.)
[Okay so maybe he did hear Sam's comment on his eyes, but chose to ignore it for the liplock.]
