>> Oh, saw on the LiveJournal post of this, Bucky will have difficulties dealing with anyone coughing or gasping after helping Stevie for so long? <<
Bucky isn't even comfortable with people snoring badly. That's already shown up a time or two.
>> Right, Tony, Phil, or Clint have an inhaled allergy trigger or get asthmatic bronchitis. <<
In the notes I have, it's Natasha who winds up wheezing after getting hit with a bioweapon. And she is in no way tolerant of people noticing her weakness, however temporary.
>> I had the latter, antibiotics, emergency inhaler, and I called and apologized to my kid sister for EVER even thinking she was faking her asthma attacks as a kid. <<
Some of the things I've touched on between Steve and Bucky are like this, where as adults they look back on things they did as children and try to touch up what went wrong. So for instance, when they were growing up, everyone thought asthma was a mental illness. Bucky spent enough time observing Steve to identify both physical and emotional triggers, but nobody else believed it. One of the followups is therefore, "By the way, Bucky, you were right: asthma is a physical disease, it's not all in my head." And I've got another snippet of some extremely unwise hoodlums jumping the Avengers while they're off-duty, where Steve lets Bucky protect him. Because now that Steve is older and stronger, he's less defensive, and can appreciate what Bucky did for him all those years. It's good for both of them.
