[The class is technically an hour long. Steve is trying real hard to not hover - he knows a few people that would just as soon punch him for too much concern, but he can't chalk it up to wishful thinking. Bucky did seriously seem more relaxed when Steve was talking to him than he did working on his own. So maybe next time it's time for rounds, James gets first dibs on Steve's time, so to speak.]
How's it going?
[Not good, he already knows that, but if James doesn't want to talk about or acknowledge it Steve doesn't want to make him feel like he's backed into a corner. His voice is also noticeably quieter with the question rather than the mock whisper of before. Genuine concern, genuine giving of privacy with it.]
