The mellow dance hall had an old timey feel to it: wooden paneling, sweethearts dancing slowly with each other as the gentle music of a big band song played. Steph was standing to the side, searching over the slow moving couples to see if she could find...if she could find him. But something was off. She knew she wasn't in the 40s anymore. She knew that. She was wearing her new Captain America uniform. One that Coulson designed. Yet...yet the setting looked just like home. And there was hope in her chest that Bucky was just really late.

No. This was a dream. It had to be.

He lowers his arm upon her command. He does a Spartans' best attempt at being at ease, which involves looking around to study the environment, as if he had been in a combat situation in spite of the solidity of his movements.

"Ask a girl to dance, soldier. It could be that easy to start with." She knew she was teasing, but not that teasing.

He turns to her.

"How badly is fraternization seen in here?"

"I'm sure there is no harm in dancing," she replied carefully, not really sure if there was more to his question or not. "Why?" She looked around. Did he want to dance with one of the fellas?
