Long runs and gym time cover for a a multitude of quirks and needs. You can't punch away desperate depression, but if anyone's going to try? Of course it would be Steve. The crazy thing is, it's sort of worked. He's been functional, up until Thanos showed up. He even felt like he was pulling his life back together in some small way, knowing Bucky was safe, recovering among compassionate and trustworthy people. Watching Wanda and Vision's tentative little love affair. Exchanging jokes and stories with Sam and Natasha, in between missions and heart-pounding scares. It was nothing like normal, but it was something Steve could adapt to.
He missed Tony. He missed a lot of people, but Tony was the real stand out, and he figured that was probably due to guilt. Maybe. He's sure ready to fall into bed with him though, and that has nothing to do with a guilty conscience.
He makes a small, low sound in his throat at the feel of Tony's hand on his face. That's some kind of craving answered right there, calluses stroking against his skin, strangely gentle. The shivering eases, but Steve's eyes are dark and glassy when he opens them again.
"Yes, please," he says, with the shadow of a smile on his lips. "I've been thinking about kissing you for the last half hour."
