It's a statement that burns something awful in Steve's chest. Was that what Tony thought he was doing here? Wasting his life? Steve isn't even sure if thinks the man is wrong. He has lived his life as long as he can remember for someone else. He looks down at the pavement for a moment trying to right his thoughts. The silence feels long, Steve doesn't try and fill it-- not for a thoughtful moment. "I think I've been wasting my life for a long time Tony." He admits softly. "But, maybe for the right reasons. I think I gave up having my life belong to me a long time ago. I'm not too sure what to do with it now...now that things seem to be settling. I think I'm wasting it by doing this, by choosing what to do. I've been on a mission so long, I'm not sure what my life means without it. "

No, it wasn't. Not by far. Steve watches almost annoyed by the other man, as he works to try and stitch a large wound on his leg close. Tony, like Steve himself never really visited the medical bay and maybe that's why Steve can understand Tony wanting to stitch it himself, but the angle looked about as awful as one could get. He shakes his head. "No, it isn't. But, it wouldn't kill you to ask for help. That looks terrible. "He says holding out his hand for the needle that Tony has. "Did you at least disinfect this? Or are we pretending we don't need it? "

“you talk too much.“ a statement, everyone knows that. even before she met tony stark she knew of him. everyone does. doesn’t make the statement less real. “did natalia liked you?” tilt of her head, actual curiosity this time. did natalia liked any of them to consider them her friends? her family? to consider them their closest bond? choose them over her.  “I don’t work well with others.” fact. widows aren’t trained to work with partners. it’s not in their nature. @directorstrk​
