[The tension that has defined Ivar and Bucky's relationship up until now has mostly eased with the two of them with the difference in their personalities. Ivar's lost that hard edge, the anger that's so quick to rise to the surface. There's still something within him that isn't able to fully connect and empathize with people, but he's learned to hide it, watching how his father behaved as a good king even with people he hated for the past sixteen years.
When he sees the Sergeant, he smiles, and waves a hand back in greeting. There's definitely something different about Bucky, though Ivar can't precisely put his finger on what it is. Then he partially figures it out. He's lost that tension he always carries himself with and look in his eye like he's going to take off at a moment's notice. Kind of annoying when that happens at the drop of a hat.]
You look....pleasant. That's a first.
[No matter what timeline Ivar is from, some things remain consistent. Being sarcastic and insulting the people he gets along with the best is one of them.]
