[ It's... different, doing this mentally. Coaching someone in the skills he'd used himself, breathing with them to show them how to do it, he's done it all before, but never when he could feel the things they were struggling with in their heads. It makes things easier, knowing exactly what to react to, but harder when he experiences it, too.
He'd expected the static returning, though, and he's prepared enough that there's only the slightest hitch in chest before his breathing evens out again. Same as he'd do if it was his own shit, he takes in the static and lets it wash over him, fading beneath the cloud layer he uses as a visualization. ]
(I got you, Bucky, you're okay. Just keep breathing with me, you got this.) [ In, out, just slightly out of sync with Barnes, and he focuses on that for a few moments. ] (Three things you can physically hear?)
