[Did you say call him that forever and for always?]
You can try to resist but there's a magnetism between us baby
[And wow. Mind you it took a lot of fiddling (at least after an accidental thumb swipe one day, that had opened the floodgates to tiny picture town) to get him fluent in emoticons, and he could hardly keep up with the kids on what they're all substitutes for. But he gets the gist with the basics. Apparently Steve has not been fiddling enough.]
There's a little face button next to the letters when you type. should be on the left side?
he's still sleeping though, went back up a bit ago. i'd rest easier if they'd jettisoned the damn pod like I'd asked but that's putting too much faith in miracles.
[Oh my god this hero complex is gonna be the death of him.]
Steve if it wakes up you might not remember anything I told you. You might find yourself wandering away thinking how you've got other shit to do and nothing will seem amiss until the bodies start turning up. And even then you'll blame it on something else. You're too old and you don't have history with it. It won't fuck with you unless it takes a shine.
Don't worry about me. It was a shocker last time, that's all.
[Visits or no visits, shit was still gonna be miserable. Old girlfriends had told him how he talked and whimpered in his sleep, and that was before he'd remembered. Before he went back to Derry and it all came rushing back like water from a burst dam, before the world ended and he was set to drifting among the stars and the impossible. He was fucked for shut eye no matter what. Save your breath, Steve.]

I was so-so until you mentioned ripping up the dance floor. Now I'm good.
I guess it would impress my boss if I threw you outside on your ass. Would you expect me to return the favor?
explodes in tsundere agony
Anything to make you look good to the boss man, sir, i'm at your beck and call whenever you need upstarts and hooligans
i think you'd get away with any mess you started with that pretty face of yours, its very hard not to fall in love with you
i'm struggling as we speak
it was nice knowing you
[ Give yourself a break Steve, you have dedicated the past few years to serving your country after all... ]
But thank you for flattering me. Or being sarcastic. [ He adds in case he misread Richie's tone. ]

[is he being sarcastic? or is he being a piece of shit?
(it's probably the latter...)]

You're a scamp.
I'm never messaging you again.

How did you do those hearts? [ Hearts weren't in Bruce's manual... Not that he's sending any to you, Richie. ]

[ Steve presses the button and... oh, what a collection of tiny expressions and the like. How curious...
And then he finds one that's downright ludicrous. ]

niiiice
[ Steve saw the effect it had on him last time. It really didn't sound healthy for him to visit the clown. ]
See your friends by all means but don't go spending your time looking at him. I can check on him.
