It can be, yeah. Someone who you know has your back.

[It seems like teammate and friend basically go hand-in-hand for Steve at this point, though. Even Bucky had been both his best friend and his second-in-command, so the lines blur pretty easily for him. Steve has a difficult time keeping things strictly professional with teammates, which may be why Natasha was so confused when he asked her to be a friend to him.

Well, it's something they can work on. They're apparently going to have plenty of time for that here.

It's obvious that Mary Margaret is embarrassed by what she's about to say, but Steve pays close attention, keeping his expression serious to put her at ease. Though when she comes out with it, he has to admit it's not really what he expected. He's probably heard some crazier things today already, but that ranks pretty high.]

Seeing how we're in Wonderland, I can't say I'm too surprised. Being cursed to forget who you really are has gotta be pretty disorienting, though.

[It's obviously not the same thing, but Steve's thoughts still go to Bucky.]
