Steve drug a smug smile from out of the blue, tipping his head. Letting it roll out a little across his mouth and most of his body in some kind of ease that hadn't been there seconds ago. It was a good way to do it, and he wouldn't really mind having her there at his side. He never did.
Which made it far easier to bluff, arrogantly. "Consider it a surprise."
There was the most minute beat, before the raised one hand gesturing toward her.
"But you're going to have to change out of that." Which lists toward a smirk. Even an appraising one.
Because she does look very nice, in her silky shirt, with the straps that have been sliding this way and that across her skin when she shifts. Which of course, is half the point. A warning that might be a hint, that might be a compliment, that might be any number of things. "Not that it isn't nice, but it won't help you much where you're headed."
