There's always a little shock of surprise for Bucky every time Steve does something physical like that, and a part of Bucky knows it's because Steve is still just too damn big. His muscle memory (layered way, way underneath everything else, but still very much there) wants to compensate for Steve being smaller than him, more fragile, (not that he'd say it straight up like that or risk an ear-chewing), but this guy just hauls him in, and after the initial pause, Bucky gets with the program and hugs his best friend back, giving him a hard thump or two on the back just for good measure.

"Woke up a day ago," he says as Steve stands back again. "Natasha filled me in on some stuff I gotta know." Like the false-memories bullshit being bullshit. There's still stuff he doesn't know, but even after a day, he's starting to get the rhythm of this place. What he'll do with it is anyone's guess. He's still not used to moving around in the world without a mission.
