bucky pls why was that so cute

Look, she likes to think of herself as pretty unflappable. Skrulls? Sure. Getting deposited into a different universe? Yeah, why not. So when she looks up at him, surprise evident on her face, it's pretty immediately clear that she wasn't expecting the offer.

But she is touched by it. Her eyes skim his face, her expression softening as she realizes that he means it. Genuinely. Even after she got literally dumped at his feet and confessed she's madly in love with another version of him.

Because even though he's gone, it's not really the kind of love that will ever become a thing of the past.

"You really mean that, huh?" Her mouth lilts into a little smile, and she leans her arm against the back of the couch so she can prop her head up on her hand. "I'd hate to inconvenience you." It's not a yes or a no. It's just a recognition that it's a lot to offer, and that she won't be put out if he's regretting making it.

She'll find a way. She always does.
