• he has chronic migraines from the years of torture
• he has chronic pain all over, especially his arm
• he's not technologically inept at all, he had years of training where steve didn't
• the left of his face is slightly paralysed from the fall, leaving him with a crooked smile
• he's also slightly deaf in his left ear. hydra surgeons did their best to fix it but the hearing never fully came back
• generally runs cold but doesn't notice anymore. it's useful in a way since he's usually in long sleeves or layers that cover his arm
• terrible at sleeping for long periods of time, essentially he just naps multiple times with periods of wake between them
• when he can't sleep, he reads. he's usually up for suggestions
• he enjoys cooking for himself and others, he didn't get any agency over his food for so long that now he loves choosing new things to try
• he's always got a hair tie on his wrist, sometimes his hair annoys him but he still won't cut it. he'll give it to anyone who needs one, he's got loads of spares
• he finds comfort in the smithsonian exhibit, even if it makes him realise how much he missed
• he can manage his mental health better the longer it's been since hydra, but his bad days aren't just single days, they're a period of time where he becomes reclusive again
• the void sets him back, even though he tries to hide it. he feels he has to hold himself together more now that there's more eyes on him
• he tends to dissociate a lot, especially in large groups or public spaces
• his journals are full of fragments of memories and questions he's still trying to answer. he keeps them in a bag under his bed, ready to take them with him at a moment's notice
• he has his pet cat alpine, who helps him more than he could ever explain. she curls up next to him when he sleeps and moves closer when he has a nightmare. she's usually right by his heels when he wanders around at night
• he has a phobia of heights
• it took him some time after steve passed to start visiting his grave. he still held a lot of anger and hurt in him. eventually he starts going every thursday, catching him up on all he's missed from the week
