Lynn doesn't speak

He woke up in the midday sun.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a rather dilapidated room. The actual area was not large, but because it was empty and some corners were still full of dust, it seemed a bit empty for no reason.And with the gradual recovery of vision, the pain from various wounds also began to become clear. They all came from the failed interception last night, which represented a rare miss for the Winter Soldier. Injury is not a big deal, but it rarely makes him feel frustrated.

Facing that man who was exactly like himself, he shouldn't have lost...if that guy wasn't there.

The crisp sound of metal colliding with metal came from the ear, awakening the Winter Soldier from his memories.It was only then that he realized that his right hand was still cuffed to the heating pipe. He pursed the corners of his mouth and tentatively raised the mechanical arm, but he didn't experience the uncontrollable jerky feeling like last night.

After breaking the handcuffs with force, he lowered his head slightly, and saw a few bottles of unopened bottled water casually thrown at his feet, together with some biscuits, surrounding him in a corner of the room.The Winter Soldier guessed that it must have been the idea of ​​the green-eyed guy, after all, he was the only one of the two who seemed to do such unnecessary things, and the other, the Winter Soldier knew very well, was also the same weapon as himself, and the weapon never Will not show mercy to the enemy.

If they are really enemies.

Cautiously explored the room, but did not find any possible monitoring, bugs, or bombs.On the contrary, he also found the safe containing the serum behind the door. The contents inside were untouched, like garbage that could be discarded at any time, piled up casually with a pile of newspapers, so simple that it made the Winter Soldier Doubt that I have performed the wrong task.

Maybe the serum has been repackaged, maybe the person who delivered it didn't know the value of this thing at all, or maybe it was just a trap to lure him into the bait.

Just like his left arm, which doesn't feel natural right now.

But what does it matter.

His task is to bring these things back, and other things are always taken care of by others.It's not his turn to take care of it, and he doesn't want to take care of it.

Thinking silently, the Winter Soldier picked up the box and walked to the window. After making sure that no one was ambushing around, he smashed the glass and jumped from the second floor.

An explosive killer, the Winter Soldier can jump off a bridge and smash a car into scrap metal, but he can also make himself as deft as a cat if necessary.The instant he landed, he bent his knees to reduce the cushioning force, without disturbing anyone living around him.Like a shadow melting in the sun, he casually pried open a car parked on the side of the road, and at the same time sent a return message to the respondent, and then drove towards the address given by the other party.

The process went surprisingly smoothly.

Back at Hydra's base in New York, he was taken for a series of overhauls, and the box was brought back by another team early in the handover.The Winter Soldier sat quietly on the leather chair, watching the technician fiddle with the surface of his robotic arm with electric welding.Immediately, someone came to him to announce the end of the mission. Neither the serum nor the metal arm found any problems. The assets did not need to be recovered and frozen for the time being. Before the next mission was assigned, he got a rare vacation, or an empty window on standby. Expect.

The news confused the Winter Soldier for a while, and even if he didn't try to read his expression, he could clearly see the confusion in his eyes.But it's clear that no one in Hydra pays attention to the sentiment of a public asset, and thus misses their only chance to spot something that will prevent them from losing five Winter Soldier in one fell swoop in the future.And before he was taken out of the laboratory by armed men with live ammunition, the Winter Soldier's expression had already returned to his usual expressionless face. Those eyes of vigilance, fear or disgust would not affect him in any way, as it should be when dealing with a weapon. , instead of leaving him water and food before evacuating, like feeding a homeless stray cat.

Lowering his eyes, he stretched out his right hand, pinched the part where the metal arm of his left shoulder connected to the flesh, and stroked the quiet bite plate inch by inch, wondering what he was thinking.

There is nothing wrong with this action, in a general sense.

At the very least, on the other side of the ubiquitous monitoring, no one would think that the behavior of the Winter Soldier was abnormal.After all, the mechanical arm is attached to him, and he can touch it as he wants. Hydra has no rule that property cannot touch its own arm. As long as it doesn't take it off, no one will care about such a trivial matter.

But the premise is that the robotic arm is really just a robotic arm.

After being touched three times by the Winter Soldier from beginning to end, Lynn thought so weakly.

He wasn't sure if the Winter Soldier had discovered his existence.After all, this mechanical arm is connected to the feeling of the Winter Soldier through a severed limb. It is not a dead thing in the general sense. There are some things that Bucky refuses to tell himself. He can only try to maintain the original function of the mechanical arm, but obviously there are still Something was wrong, and the Winter Soldier had unprecedented doubts about his left arm.

Sensing that he wanted to clench his fists hard, Lynn carefully shook the pages one by one, realizing the instructions from the Winter Soldier's neurons step by step, curling up his five fingers to the extent he wanted.

There should be... nothing wrong.

Forced to accept the baptism of the Winter Soldier's cold gaze, Lynn regrets not trying it on her boyfriend first.But luckily, the Winter Soldier just stared at him for a moment, then looked away and went about his business.This made Lin En unavoidable. Maybe that person just wanted to test the maintenance of his left arm on a whim. It's a habit Bucky can't break.

And when he and the owner of the mechanical arm spent two days in peace, Lynn felt so even more.

Except when on duty, the Winter Soldier has always been a very quiet man.He rarely left his room, even though it was cramped and damp.Every day, someone will send him a regular and quantitative nutritional meal, a mixture of glucose, endosperm, protein and carbohydrates, just to maintain the functioning of his body, and the taste and appearance are completely out of consideration.And the Winter Soldier himself didn't seem to have any demands on this, he just stuffed the pile of paste into his stomach indifferently, neither resisting nor complaining, as if eating was nothing more than an assigned task for him.

Hydra builds him to the standards of a weapon, and the first step is to obliterate the Winter Soldier's various human needs, including the pleasure he gets from food.After Lynn and Bucky met, it took him a long time to re-establish his perception of this, to let his boyfriend understand that not all the food in this world tastes like a nutritious meal, and Bucky found out that It is during this period that there is an indistinct preference for everything sweet.But now, Lynn is attached to the Winter Soldier's mechanical arm, unable to take out a cheese stick or a cream pancake and stuff it into his mouth. He can only watch with concern as the Winter Soldier puts the thing that he never wants to try again in his life. Eat it slowly, while adding a reason in my heart that I must kill Hydra.

Apart from his own room, the only place the Winter Soldier will go to is probably the training ground in the base.

In fact, this should be regarded as an order. In order to maintain the state of the asset, someone will wait there every day for him to do basic training and necessary testing.Lynn was not allowed to visit this activity before, and Bucky seldom revealed the content to him, so he never understood what kind of basic training it was, and it would train people out of it for a few days. Bleeding and purple.

But now, looking at the fully armed soldiers on the training ground, he finally understood.

The basic training is not for Bucky, but for those Hydra agents. The Winter Soldier is just a fixed partner, or in other words, a target that can be hit freely.Anyway, his body has been transformed by Zola. Even if he is accidentally injured, he can heal at a speed several times faster than ordinary people.

Trapped in a siege several times larger than himself with the Winter Soldier, Lynn's heart was aching and angry as if being ignited by what seemed to be endless punches.

Fuck Hydra.

If it wasn't for the unfinished task, Lin En was sure that he would not be able to help but yell.Especially when those guys have no scruples and surround the unarmed Winter Soldier with a knife, he almost wants to carry a bazooka and burn the entire base to the ground.

But unfortunately, the reality is always cruel. At most, he can only quietly exert more force when the Winter Soldier punches, and he doesn't even dare to crush every throat that is pinched in the palm of his hand.After all, the goddamned caretaker had said that if the Winter Soldier accidentally killed someone, he'd be dragged out and punished.And whether it was brainwashing, electric shock, water dungeon, or a beating tied to an iron bar, Lynn was unwilling to let any of them fall on the Winter Soldier, otherwise, before he returned to his body, he would definitely be alive. Heartbroken to die here.

Although, not everyone's patience is unlimited.

Lynn's self-control has always been outstanding, and this is written in the most prominent position in the report no matter in the evaluation of MI6 or Hydra.This is probably the unique commonality of British agents, who always require themselves to maintain a state of restraint that a gentleman should have.However, once his proud endurance encounters something related to the Winter Soldier, it will be completely defeated, just like an impulsive boy who has just entered adolescence. Long before his reason comes into play, his body has learned to act instinctively. answer.

For the first time, he didn't obey the Winter Soldier's command to block back, he clenched his five fingers, and with the bitter wind pressure, he smashed the bridge of the nose of the unlucky guy in front of him with a punch.

As for the reason?Maybe it was a bruise from a blow on the Winter Soldier's face, or a new bright red scratch on the back of his right hand, Lynn didn't quite remember.Anyway, when he realized it, he had already vented his anger under the surprised gaze of the Winter Soldier, and miraculously did not have any guilt, even though this stupid impulse had been clearly exposed to the Winter Soldier, his mechanical The fact that the arms are tricky.

It's not my fault.

Looking at the wailing agents all around, Lynn thought confidently, even if Bucky looked at him with the condemning eyes of 'your impulsiveness is likely to mess up everything' after returning, who made him think about these bastards? Show mercy.Even if the healing speed is several times faster, it still hurts to be hit on the body, and the things that make the boyfriend feel painful should all disappear from this world.

Complacently calibrating the occlusal plates, Lynn finally felt a little more comfortable. Even if the owner of the mechanical arm looked at him with complicated eyes, it did not detract from his joy in the slightest.And this joy lasted until they returned to the room from the training ground. The Winter Soldier sat on the edge of the bed and kneaded his left arm from the shoulder blade to the wrist again. After a long silence, he finally spoke his first words these days.

"You're angry."

The vocal cords are slightly jerky due to infrequent use, and the voice produced is also hoarse.His eyes fell on the open palm of his left hand, and he didn't seem to be worried about the sudden loss of control of the mechanical arm, but he already knew that there was a living soul hidden in it.

"why?"

There is no reason for this.

Confused by the Winter Soldier's tone, he soon realized that he was indeed talking to himself.Lynn wasn't quite sure if he should answer, but then, the Winter Soldier's next words startled him so much that he almost stopped breathing.

"If it weren't for you, I shouldn't have lost to that guy like me." He lowered his eyes and said calmly, "It's the same today. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have hit so hard."

During the shock, he took time to think about whether losing to his future self had left such a deep psychological shadow on the Winter Soldier, but soon realized that something was wrong.Unable to keep silent anymore, Lynn took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, but the anxiety still lingered in his voice: "You know it's me?"

Seemingly feeling that this question was of little value, the Winter Soldier paused for a while before reluctantly nodding.

"Why?" Lynn said in horror, "I obviously haven't spoken yet."

"Feel."

He replied lightly, "It's the same feeling as that night."

Ok?

I don't quite understand the meaning of the feeling in the Winter Soldier's mouth. After all, dead things don't communicate with him how they feel after being possessed. Compared to this, what Lynn is more shocked now is that Bucky didn't Tell yourself this before you act.

"So." Considering his tone, he carefully observed the expression on the Winter Soldier's face: "You knew it all along, but you didn't tell anyone about it."

Because it is not necessary.

His eyes were still blank without warmth.The Winter Soldier thought about it, and Lynn could see clearly that he was indeed thinking seriously.No one in Hydra needed words out of his mouth beyond debriefing, so even a simple conversation seemed like a tricky battle to him.

"Overhaul, no problem."

After a long silence, he replied.The meaning is very clear, as long as it does not affect his use, then no matter what the problem is, even if Hydra plans to paint a flower on his arm, he will not frown.

"But you pulled me out now." Lin En sighed: "Because I affected you, didn't I?"

There was no answer, but he knew it was the Winter Soldier's default.Staring at the fleshless left hand for a long time, so long that Lynn thought that this person was thinking about how to get out without damaging the mechanical arm, the Winter Soldier blinked slowly, but did not continue the topic.

"What's your name?" He moved his metal fingers and whispered.

"Lynn Morris."

After hesitating for less than half a second, Lynn quickly answered.But his former boyfriend just nodded his head very simply, and then his attention turned to another person present in his memory.

"that person?"

"Oh, him."

Still immersed in the shock that Bucky didn't tell him anything, Lin En snorted, without knowing what kind of psychology he was holding, he said without thinking, "That's your long-lost brother."

Winter Soldier: ...Huh? ?

The author has something to say: qwq babies, I'm back from defending!Because these days, taking graduation photos and defending graduation ceremonies are all together, and this plot is actually not in my outline, so I have been stuck for a long time. QAQ
