Steve couldn't even fathom the idea of trying to make a list of everyone who had been lost to the snap, even just on Earth. They were still working on it, as far as he knew, but it was impossible to tell who was actually lost in the incident and who had just used it as a smokescreen to disappear into. Regardless, some of the most important people to him in all the world were gone, so they had an understanding on that much.
When Carol reached back across the table, Steve exhaled softly and turned his hand to clasp hers. It was thanks and condolence and camaraderie all in a simple gesture, and the corner of his mouth tipped up in a small smile.
"Well, you did mention a space dog planet, so I'm pretty keen to see that," he said, arching a brow at her.
It was a simple gesture, but one that also made Carol smile. Outside of greetings and farewells, she's not sure when the last time was that she just held someone's hand. It feels nice, even if their uniform gloves are preventing their palms from fully touching.
"I did," she relented with a laugh. "I mentioned the space dog planet and we're definitely going. I found one where they are big enough to ride and friendly. So if you want to do that, I'll be happy to take a picture and send it to Thor." And probably Natasha. Carol was sure that she'd want to see Steve out enjoying himself.
