*hitting a punching bag very hard*
"Really?" Carol considered that. "I've actually never fought with him outside of the suit. Might be an experience."
Steve chuckles as he sips some water. "He's really more graceful then you'd think," he says, "he's good at defense but his punches still lack heat."
"You could help him with that," she replied as she went and pulled her t-shirt back over her tank top. "I'm always afraid I'm going to break his nose."
"Tony actually taught me how to pull a punch," Steve explains, "he does it when he's about to use the arc blasters." Steve flings a fist up tensing his muscles so that when it hits her arm it's at half strength.
"I didn't know that." She watches as Steve punches her at half-strength. Even Steve at half-strength would've hurt a normal human, but Carol barely felt the pain from that. "Very cool."
"He says it helps him be ready for the kick of the blast," Steve explains, "it really is handy."
"See, there's always more that you can learn." Carol grins before taking a sip of water from her own bottle. "Think you'll have less trouble sleeping now?"
Steve smiles. "I think I'll have sweet dreams...how about you?"
She nods and smiles back at him. "I don't know how sweet my dreams will be, but I think I'll get to bed just fine."
"You always help." And because it's late and Carol still feels a little bad for punching him down, she leans forward to give him a quick hug.
He hugs her back just as quickly. "Stay sweet," he says fondly.
"With you as a friend? I'm sure to." Then Carol reaches down to grab her stuff.
He grins. "I don't know I can get pretty nasty without popcorn."
"Then we will make sure that you have plenty of popcorn for our movie marathon." She hoists her bag over her shoulder with a grin.
"And I'm make sure to bring some caramel corn for you," he replies
"What a gentleman. You're such an excellent friend, Steve."
"I don't need it, but I really do appreciate it. So keep doing that." Carol gestured to the door. "Want me to walk you home?"
He nods. "Sure thanks, it can get dicey this late at night," he jokes, "and you're welcome."
Carol smirked before heading through the door with him. "Exactly. I would feel very guilty if you got attacked on the way home."
Steve laughs. "And would you come to my rescue right away or just watch me save myself?"
Carol shrugs as they step out into the cool night air. "It depends on how many there were. If they were just two small ones, I know that you could take 'em."
"Oh only the small ones," Steve teased, "you make me feel so manly right now."
"You should always feel manly. But if I can help you feel manlier than I have done my job." She grinned and nudged him as they walked.
