[He's going to be sick. The fact that he can't see even for a second how wrong this is disgusts Steve. All Howard can see is something less than human slipping outside his control and it scares him. Steve hates that he has to use that. It's wrong, but he's not the only super solider around here that Howard knows about. Steve has to protect the other one.]
I'm not your toy solider. You can't control me.
[Very deliberately he catches Howard's dominant hand with his free one. He latches onto his anger, that need to protect his beloved friend, and lets it darken his features. He would do anything for Bucky. He lets Howard see that even knowing that when it came down to it, he could never bring himself to harm Howard Stark. Intimidation definitely, knocking him out if he became a legitimate threat maybe, but never deliberately harm.]
You're going to stay away from James Buchanan Barnes or whatever you think he's called because if you don't I will break every bone in this hand. Have I made myself clear?
