Later, when everything was stabilized, Agent Coulson would insist he'd had worse. Just right now with blood pouring out his shoulder, it was hard to say definitively. Still, he knew it hadn't hit his heart or any major arteries. Phil knew he'd already be dead if that was the case, right?
Still. As Loki was distracted, Coulson shoved his body against a wall to staunch the bleeding the best he could. And he did still have his toy.
"You lack conviction," he told the god, just as calmly as he did everything, incredibly lightheaded and seeing a few stars. Maybe they wouldn't get to him in time. Suddenly Fury was there, and Coulson tried to keep calm. Even smiling.
"It's okay, boss. This was never gonna work if they didn't have something to..." Why couldn't he talk now? The medics were already staunching the wound, and then he felt something go into his arm, something nice and warm and full of incredible relief.
Those would be the drugs, then.
"Agent Coulson is down." Fury was talking, and Coulson could hear it as they put on the oxygen mask. "They called it."
That... that couldn't be right, could it? But even as he drifted into sleep, Coulson understood. The Avengers needed something, like he'd said. Phil had only meant the attack in general. But Fury was right.
Maybe they needed a martyr. He'd worry about that later, if he woke up.
And just like that, Phil did wake up in his twin bed, gasping loudly into the dark of their new home.
