That gets the first genuine laugh out of Bucky. It comes all of a sudden, creaky and hoarse, and his expression actually shifts to surprised as though he didn't expect that sound coming out of his mouth before he gives in to the laugh.

"Hey-- you said you weren't ever gonna tell anyone about my secret shame."

Because it was all true. Bucky had been the dork between them for years, he made them go to the Lord of the Rings films in costume, he made them stand in line at midnight for the Harry Potter books, he was the one that sobbed like a baby when Ned Stark was killed and once again Sean Bean was out of a show.

He misses being that guy. He tried to go to the movies when he got back, wanted to see the newest superhero flick, but he made it about four steps into the foyer of the movie theatre before he fled like the hounds of hell were after him.

"Besides, you were totally into it too. --Jesus, Steve, I really missed you."

So damn much.
