[Steve Rogers is--a good person. At the very least, a good-hearted person. That's all a matter of perspective, though, isn't it? Good and bad are arbitrary, while righteousness and evil are . . .]
[Pucci can't help but feel his current perspective is terribly skewed. There are two beliefs in his mind, both equally strong; he isn't sure which one is real, some days, but mostly he is, and isn't sure he can believe that reality. He's restless. It feels like there's some manner of predator prowling the inside of his skull. It feels less like he's losing his mind and more like he's trying to figure out which direction to go in in order to find it again.]
[The presence of good-hearted men is somehow a frustration to him right now. It shouldn't be--but here we are. He finds himself aggravated by the doings of good deeds even as he plans more into his calendar. Peering out the window of his (their) home has his brows twitching together, and it takes him far too long to decide to wrap up tightly and step outside.]
Steve, [he says as he closes the space between them--Steve is clearing out yet another driveway, of course he is.] Have you let yourself rest at all today?
