[He had Natasha. And Sam. Wanda. Just because the team was split didn't mean he was alone. And he had Logan. He just... He really missed some of the people who had fought on Tony's side. Mostly, he missed Tony.]
[ Logan's sitting on the bed and leaning against the headboard, so. It doesn't take much effort to scoot some and pat the newly-freed space at his side. ]
[ Logan still feels sorry for the bluntness. It churns in his stomach-- which didn't used to happen, not really, and he hates every bit of it.
It takes some effort, and a few false starts here and there, but eventually his hand brushes over Steve's before he holds it. Logan frowns slightly, looking down at his own lap. ]
You'll fix it. [ The words come out quiet, but honest. ] I know you will.
[He smiles, taking Logan's hand in his and threading the fingers together. He does it easily, closing his eyes and resting his head on Logan's shoulder.]
Something drastic will come up and make me, I'm sure of it. That's how things go. You know it. End of the world, etc...
[ Though he stiffens a bit when Steve's weight presses against him, Logan calms easily in a beat. He's just not used to-- this, to the affection. But the warmth and scent of him and the way Logan can hear Steve breathe are some of the most comforting sensations he knows.
His grip tightens a little. If he could shield Steve from all the terrible things in the world, he would. ]
[A soft smile. A gentle chuckle. He knows what the world doesn't like.] After Sokovia, they don't really like us 'gifted' people either. Inhumans is the new, popular term for us.
[He sighed, rolling over slightly and draping an arm over Logan, curling up beside him.]
You have saved the world. They just don't know it. If they knew what Erik had tried to do, they'd be throwing you a parade. I like you, that's what matters.

You know I was.
[And the smirk is gone now...]

It's just-- it's hard to ignore it, Steve.
Especially when it tears you up.
no subject
Can't ignore what happened. Can only move past it.
You're right. They're not my team anymore. I'm foolish to keep thinking otherwise.

Can't talk to a wall.

I wish they were better listeners, too.
[ Less because Logan cares about the Avengers and more because he cares about Steve, but that sort of goes without saying, doesn't it? ]

...I'm sorry.
[ And he means it, which is a huge jump in character development, he's sure! ]
I'll be more polite.
[ No. More like: ] I'll try.
no subject
Don't. Don't do that. You... Just be you.
no subject
Just take my apology, OK?
And please come to bed. This time I really want to hold you.
no subject
I don't know, I take up a lot of space...
no subject
I'll whine about you being too hard on yourself, mark my words
But you're never too hard for me.

Hey.

Least we got you to save it, huh.
no subject
[He's grateful for the comfort, even if he knows it's not Logan's natural default. He waits, patiently, for the man to get comfortable.]
Got you too.
no subject
[ Doesn't like muties, and the dislike-- the hatred, really-- stretches out to Logan and his team.
He leans his own head to the side, nose touching Steve's hair. ]
If we tried to save the world like you, they'd just be scared of us.
