“And every time,” Bucky continues as if Steve said nothing, “you got this - this light comin' outta you, shining outta your skin like somebody pointed the world's biggest spotlight on you. That's how he remembers you, all gold an' smiling at him. Every time.” He looks up at Steve.
“I got so much of you in my head, glowin' like the fuckin' sun.”
