[ As Rey seemed to relax into his embrace, Steve simply smile, resting his chin lightly on top of her hair. Truly she seemed like a remarkable person, so he hoped that things worked out, but he didn't want to get ahead of himself. His job kept him traveling still and well there was still the occasional missions that he would run for SHIELD. So he never could tell if things would actually go his way for once. ]
Glad to hear it. [ He replied simply as she pulled back to look up at him, instinctively his hands moved up to rest at her shoulders.]
You're welcome and of course. [ He grins in amusement, but he can't but think that she looks incredibly cute asking for something so innocent. However he listens intently when the conversations shifts back over to her brothers and inevitably her powers. He was aware that she did have powers, but he hadn't exactly remembered which were hers. Truthfully he hadn't bothered checking because he figured she would likely tell him eventually.]
Oh? Is that why you've been worried? [He believes her when she says she hasn't read him, because she honestly doesn't seem like she has or she wouldn't have been so worried about whether or not he liked her. And well he is fairly good at detecting when people are being dishonest wholeheartedly with him. Rey hasn't ever really given him pause to think she might be trying to manipulate him.]
Look, this might come as a shock to you, but I've worked with some super powered individuals before. And well I'm not exactly normal myself, how do you think I survived being frozen for 67 years? I am glad to hear that your father did help you all with your abilities though, even if I completely disagree with him sending children out to fight crime. However I wasn't around back then to champion for you guys, because honestly I would have been very loud about children being allowed to be children.
[He gives her an apologetic grimace because he hadn't meant to rant to her about his opinions of her guardian. Even if everything he has ever heard about the man, left a bad taste in his mouth, she didn't need to hear it.]
Sorry, I didn't mean to go off on a tangent there.
