Okay, so, HTP was a daily part of The Asset's life. He is so used to the worst of humanity he can't stop seeing it. Up to filler if it is Peter or Tony, but after Bucky starts looking at the interactions of the other team, he starts to think someone is being abused. He knows HYDRA used trash parties to break and keep others in line, and he knows how effective it can be for keeping otherwise volatile assets in line. So he is honestly extremely worried for Tony or Peter being abused by Ross and the World Security Council.
And because he knows how horrifying and embarrassing it is for people not in the Asset mentality to have someone acknowledge the rapes and abuse, he keeps trying to ask about it obliquely and subtly. Long distance communication isn't helping matters.
Up to filler if the person Bucky thinks is a fellow survivor is- but I really want Bucky trying to be protective of what he sees as a fellow trash party favor- and creeping the everloving fuck out of the rest of the good guys as a result of miscommunications.
