[It's a change of subject, and Bucky knows it, but anything to not talk about what's playing on the TV. But when he pulls out his device and reads the text message as he listens to Steve talk about these trials, his expression sour:]
I think you might be right, [he says as he shows the message to Steve.
It's not that he doesn't trust Steve, even if it's not the Steve he knows from his world. It's not hard to figure out that Cap is who he is in any other universe, after all. It's just that this is all fresh in his mind, and he hasn't had time to process it all. Or rather, he hasn't taken the time to.
He watches Steve sit back down on the couch but Bucky doesn't follow. Instead, he leans back on the wall again, arms crossed over his chest as he mulls over Cap's words. He doesn't mean to put distance between him and the other man, but he just needs space, for now.]
I know. I would have wanted the same thing too. But it doesn't make it any easier. [This is not how he imagined things ending between the two of them.]
There is a cure. The Mind Stone emits a frequency that can revert the effect of the virus. [Don't ask him how, he likes science but that's beyond his knowledge level.] The rest of the group is trying to get it to Wakanda so we can broadcast it worldwide.
