That'd be nice. I much prefer to be walking around than hanging out as an ice cube.
[The experience was, in its own way, mildly humbling. He had always wondered what had made the Winter Soldier special, what it was like to go from frozen to warm-blooded and then frozen again, over and over. He had a bit more respect for HYDRA's Fist at this point, having now experienced the strange disconnect between the time before and the time after cryofreeze. His only advantage was he wasn't electrocuted when he decided to go off the rails, at least not that he remembered, though brainwashing was a cornerstone of HYDRA life at times. They liked to be more subtle about it most of the time.
And he definitely wouldn't have missed a dragon on purpose. He had been curious of the creatures, of the challenge that they poised. It wasn't his fault! Jones had kept pushing at the notion of the creatures and he had looked into them at the library and then it seemed reasonable to want to see one in real life. He couldn't believe he had missed a dragon!]
Damn rights I wouldn't have. What little boy didn't want to see a dragon?
[He was shaking his head, t'sking his disappointment. He was by no means a boy anymore, had out-grown almost all of his childhood fantasies.
He flexed his fingers as she wiped his hand and investigated if there was a need for a bandage. He thought of refusing a bandage, not wanting the bulk on his hand which he might have to use in the first place. However, he hadn't gotten into nearly as many fights as he usually did since arriving here, but he wasn't that open to inviting questions as to the state of his hand. The weird sneeze had been public enough.]
Just my luck to have the develop the worst and more useless power ever. This is why I've always been perfectly content just being me.
[He shrugged his shoulders, tilting his head as he considered how he was feeling. Nothing was obvious, nothing out of place, no weird tingling.]
No, I can't say that I do. Even that sneeze felt normal right up to the point where it apparently turned to glass. Do you feel different? You have abilities after all.
