[ Steve nods. Yes, a change in uniform would be a good start.
There's a small, quiet moment too before any of them start moving when Steve is looking at Tony, and he desperately wants to kiss him — not out of lust, but out of gratitude that despite all that has happened, Tony's still alive. It's what he would do if this world was only the two of them, and every time he or Tony survives a mission, all that they needed to celebrate was that both of them were still here.
But Pete is gone, and as much as the two of them love each other, they still haven't kissed for over two years. As much as Steve wants to now, it isn't the time.
So while he nods, he can't help but give Tony a meaningful look that aches in a way he hasn't been able to express. Soon after, however, Steve moves them so he's in a better position to help Tony back to his chair. If Tony can walk and would prefer to, Steve will help him the entire time. But if it's obvious Tony shouldn't walk, then he'll help him back into the chair, and take over pushing it back into the compound. ]
