[For a moment, Bucky just. stares, completely dumbstruck because.... god, you. actually think that's what he meant. ARE YOU AS MUCH OF AN IDIOT ABOUT HOW GOOD A PERSON YOU ARE AS STEVE IS. DID HE ACTUALLY FIND SOMEONE ELSE LIKE THAT. WHAT IS HIS LIFE.]
Now, don't misunderstand. You bein' king, nobody could care less 'bout that. It ain't about whether or not you used to rule a country, that ain't who you are. [He looks straight into Arthur's eyes, hoping he can see how serious he is-- it always used to work with Steve, at least temporarily, so hopefully it's the same case here.]
You're a good man, Arthur. That's who you are. Not a king, not a fighter, not a legend, but someone who's damn kind and brave and responsible, an' someone anyone'd be glad to follow. [Him, too, and that's saying a hell of a lot.]
