"What do you think?" James snarled, jerking his head at Barnes. "Things are changing. We need to get both of you the hell out of here."
He was still pissed off about losing the arm, and hoping it wasn't going to be a permanent change. Maybe that made no sense, but it was a part of him, and he'd reclaimed it as part of his new identity as James.
The strange thing was, he could understand why getting captured early would mean that he wouldn't lose the arm - he'd never fall from the train, because HYDRA already had him. But shouldn't rescuing himself change things back?
Maybe it took time for the changes to happen. To cement in place, like Hunter was always talking about. Right now, the only thing he truly cared about was that Len was safe, and unharmed. The thought of HYDRA hurting his lover, taking away the one good thing they'd hadn't already ripped out of James' life, had been unbearable.
Forgetting for a moment just who was watching, he caught Len by the arm, yanked his mask off with the other hand, and kissed the other man fiercely. "Don't you ever scare me like that again, asshole," he growled when he finally broke for air.
