Bucky didn’t react right away, calculating the god’s offer and words with a blank face. He couldn’t help but turn the situation over in his mind, wondering if Loki was trying to get some sort of advantage over him, trying to piece together some hidden agenda. There was no real reason for Loki to have any interest in spending time with him. He wasn’t great conversation or company, they weren’t old friends, and though Loki and Steve were on good terms, they weren’t close like Steve and Sam were, so he had no reason to force himself to get close. “I….may take you up on that offer some time.” He finally responded when he realized he needed to speak. Rubbing the back of his neck, he motioned vaguely for Loki to make the first move again. “Everyone in this mansion has had a hard life in one way or another…but from the way everyone talks, it’s improving for them all. Maybe your life will be like that too.” He offered in an effort to give some small comfort.

Bucky let out a small hum at Loki’s promise. He doubted he’d ever really seek out Loki for a game, particularly not if he thought the god was otherwise occupied, but the option to ask whenever he encountered the god was pleasant. Watching the opening move, Bucky countered, deciding for a slightly more aggressive approach this time. “God of chaos…” he mumbled, shaking his head. “Why am I not surprised someone with that title lives here.” He said dryly, not trying to be rude really, just amused by the coincidence. He paused then, head tilting before he looked over his shoulder. A moment later Steve entered the room, carrying a smoothie and a large cup of coffee. “Sam said you two were playing a game out here.” He said calmly, handing the smoothie to Loki and the coffee to Bucky. “I’m surprised though. I thought poker was the ‘best game in the world’ Buck.” He smirked. Bucky rolled his eyes as he took a sip of his drink. “Best, not only.” He shot back. Steve just chuckled, reaching out to undo Bucky’s hair and put it up again, catching more of his hair in it this time. The assassin just sat still, not seeming to mind the action. “Well, whenever you two decide you’re done out here, the food is done. No rush though, I’m keeping it warm since it seems like everyone else decided to sleep in this morning.” He said lightly, brushing Bucky’s cheek lightly before turning to head back into the kitchen to talk with Sam a little more.
