"Natalia, the team needs you whole and healthy, not this ghost persona you've decided is who you are." Bucky knows he's hurting her. He does. And he hates it. He wants to stop her, he wants to grab her and shake her until sense rattles back into her head.

He watches her go and almost curses himself. But she stops. And she utters bullshit that he hasn't seen since before Steve became Captain America.

"Bullshit." He grinds out. "You've chosen to have nothing else. I'm here, Rhodey's around." He tells her, in case she's forgotten. "Tony may have abandoned us, but we're here, Natalia." He finally walks over to her and turns her to face him. "You don't have to do everything yourself. Stop shutting us out."
