She did start walking his way, though, still silent as could be. He supposed he couldn't blame her, he hadn't exactly said much since they got here either. He wasn't much of a talker these days if he didn't have to be. When she joined him at the counter, he watched watched while she went about cleaning it herself. Or trying, rather. He took another swig of the medication then, feeling it rush to him again before he capped the bottle. That should be enough, anymore and it would actually start working for it's intended purpose. And that wasn't something he wanted to experience again.<br/><br/>The tonic has certainly calmed Bucky's nerves and mind down, he felt things starting to even out. Not quite there yet, but a lot closer. He was distracted from that thought as Karina cursed out from cleaning the wound, and he looked over to see it seeping as the peroxide bubbled. Peroxide, that was something he'd have to teach her better on. Something he got the chance to do as she extended her hand, offering to let him finish. He wasn't sure if that'd been her plan all along, but he was game to play. Bucky pulled a bottle of what looked like Vodka, because of course it was, and slid it over to her. "Here, that should dull the pain and settle your nerves a little." He offered, before a thought popped in his mind. "Just don't take more than a couple drinks." They didn't need her escaping everything in a bottle right now.<br/><br/>Bucky steadied himself then, trying to ease his feelings before touching her. He thought better on it, and prepped some rubbing alcohol on a gauze pad. It'd hurt a little more, but it'd speed along the healing process, as opposed to peroxide which slowed it down. "Just try to stay calm, it'll only take a minute and it'll feel better after that." He wasn't lying, the cushion of the bandage would do a lot to help. He started by just dabbing and cleaning with the gauze cloth, he knew touching at all probably did it, but avoiding direct skin contact probably helped. At least, he hoped.<br/><br/>After the wound was better cleaned, which only shed light on how gnarly it was, Bucky placed a gauze padding on the wound directly, before he wrapped some around in Karina's hand in a field bandage. Afterwards, he just tore the gauze and secured it in place with some medical tape. "Hopefully that was a little better." He asked, looking back up into her eyes. He'd tried to focus on just patching her up, so he hoped that was all that had bled through. Looking in her eyes now, he felt the thought he'd had when walking behind her pop back into his mind, and a grin came to his lips.<br/><br/>"You have really pretty eyes, ya know?" Bucky sorta asked and commented at the same time before his eyes moved back to the first aide kit that was still open on the table. He needed to pack that away. He started in on that, putting up the gauze and medical tape. Along with the alcohol and peroxide. He left out some Tylenol and IBU for pain, if she needed or wanted them. He knew the latter would definitely help with the swelling.
