That sounded a little too proud, or doped, to respond to, so Iron Man just cocked his head, really?, and gave Steve's shoulder a light press to keep still. This wasn't the time to start getting proud of his battlescars, especially if Tony was the one that had to deal with the fallout. "I hate seeing-- this," he blurted, muttering in his helmet, hands going still for a breath while he waited for some awful reaction, any hint that Steve had heard him, really. Of course Steve got hurt, he got hurt all of the time, but rarely like this. Rarely anything he couldn't sleep off, if anyone managed to touch him at all. He was so close to invincible, until Tony had to see him like this. The fourth fragment came out easily, one step closer to having it fixed.
