And I'm pretty sure you're biased. [But it all works out because once they're clear they can move without trying to pull punches. Steve can attack with everything that he is and Bucky can defend appropriately.

It's the sort of fighting that he needs to clear his head.

He can't always have Diana meet him in the arena for days like this.]

[cap_rogers0704]

Probably. I love him after all. Hard not to be biased.

[Steve has no intention of holding back and he attacks as if he's intending to actually defeat Bucky. He catches a punch to the nose and feels the blood start to drip down his face but he doesn't stop. They don't need too. He doesn't mind the burning sting and he knows they'll both be bloody and bruised before it's over with.]

[The fight lasts a long time, neither giving ground until they're both bloody and bruised and Bucky feels closer to human. He waves off before Steve's next attack and grips his best friend's shoulder.]

Thanks.
I needed that.

[Steve smiles brightly both of them are covered in dirt and blood and who knows what else. ]

Wanna get cleaned up and then get some food and drinks at the Saloon?

[woundedwinter]

[Bucky grins and nods.] Give me about an hour. [He should at least check in with Mick and Di, let them know that he's okay. He's safe and after a long bout with Steve he feels more himself.] I'll meet you there.

[cap_rogers0704]

Meet you there. [Steve heads back to the Waverider and changes his clothes and showers before heading to the Saloon. He arrives before Bucky and orders them both super soldier booze as well as a mountain of food.]

[woundedwinter]

[Bucky isn't far behind him, freshly showered and looking much more alive. Any bruises have healed and in clean clothes he looks like himself again, greeting his best friend with a smile.

He's going to sleep long and hard tonight and that's just what he needs.]

Got here faster huh? I see you're cleaning out the kitchen.

[Steve reaches a hand up and cups his left chest over his heart and laughs at Bucky's teasing comment]

Something like that. Figured we'd eat and drink ourselves into a stupor then go see Len and Mick or something and get free dessert.

[woundedwinter]

Haven't seen you laugh like that in a long time. [He loves the sound of it. Steve happy and free. It feels good.] Getting plenty of food and getting good and drunk sounds like a good way to end the day.

[It's still kind of amazing, seeing the wealth of food that a place like New Dodge can offer up and Bucky is more than happy to eat his fill along the way while talking with his best friend.]

[Steve pours them both a drink and holds his glass up in a toast]

To my best friend, a man I'm so glad I still have in my life.

[woundedwinter]

[Bucky's expression softens.] I wouldn't be myself without your faith in me, pal. I'm glad you found your way back here and to someone who loves you the way you deserve.

[cap_rogers0704]

Same to you, Buck. I'm glad you got people who love you just as much.
