[The man grows silent again as Kit speaks, and he looks down at the hand covering his, thinking.
Diarmuid's words sound strange to his ears--for so long he did belong to someone else, and he didn't question it. Even in the past few months he hasn't even considered himself as belonging to himself. But now that he considers it, he supposes no one owns him now. He might have considered Steve his new handler, but the man doesn't give him orders; he's radically different from what he'd known.
He feels both a thrill and a little lost all at once at the idea. He doesn't really know what to do with the feelings, so he turns his attention back to the boy, who appears to be almost finished cooking. Diarmuid said he'd ask for help if he needed it, and Bucky has been told to rest, so he doesn't offer any assistance. Even so, that doesn't mean he can stand to sit there without saying something.]

Be careful.
