It works but I'd be willing to bet he's got no idea how to use it. Guy has the sex drive of a eunuch. [ that's curious, though. Honestly Dagger probably knows Barnes better than Jack, but what he'd seen of Steve with his file didn't speak half hearted to him. ]
Makes sense. First day in camp I threatened to shoot Barnes through Rogers. Guy still checks in on me regularly. If only half is heart in the bonded thing, what's the other half?
I don't know about the others, but where I'm from the other half would be the "body." Not physical body, but there's no human word for it last I checked.

You mean the guy who dies if you rip out the lightbulb in his chest. That guy.
And I'm just a worker drone. What's the problem?
Barnes is nice. He listens well. I like him.
no subject
I didn't say durable.
Problem is I don't want to die in the process of trying to slip poison into paranoid peoples' food. Tranq gun a yes or no?
You have a bizarre definition of nice.
no subject
His life support needs life support. I don't see what's great about that.
Ask Mom. She'll get you what you need.
He gets things done. Tiny Stark gets things done. The names I gave you are buttholes I don't need.
no subject
The useful part is the scientific capability and ingenuity for weapons/engineering. He would have been good for Orange.
I'd gathered that, surprisingly enough.
no subject
So why isn't he.
Do you envy him?
no subject
Ask his recruiter. Or whoever decided our teams.
For what?
no subject
There's Steve, for one. We think they're bonded.
no subject
Bonded? They were friends before, if that's what you mean. Rogers is the only one I've seen able to back Barnes down from something.
no subject
That's why we think they're bonded. "Friend" is a very general word in the human language.
no subject
So bonded means what, more than friends? A specific kind of friend?
no subject
It means bonded. Together. Meant to be one, in most cases.
no subject
...Romantically?
no subject
Sometimes.
no subject
Pretty sure they aren't that one. [ Barnes hardly even knows what sex is ok, it's not that ]
Beside that, just something incredibly close? It'd believe it on Rogers' side. Yet to be seen on Barnes, but he's hard to get anything out of.
no subject
What, because Barnes doesn't have sex? His penis works. He's not sterile, if I remember correctly.
Rogers is the heart-half, if I took a guess.

Really? How do you figure?
no subject
His whole body's the weapon he uses, weapons are just his extensions. Just because he's not getting it wet doesn't mean he doesn't know how to use it.
Rogers has a lot of heart to him. And he keeps talking to me. It's weird.
Oh I read that last tag wrong, ignore the last part of Jack's small text there
Are you saying Barnes's dick is a weapon?
Makes sense. First day in camp I threatened to shoot Barnes through Rogers. Guy still checks in on me regularly. If only half is heart in the bonded thing, what's the other half?
it's cool!
I'm saying it could be. And yours should be, too.
I don't know about the others, but where I'm from the other half would be the "body." Not physical body, but there's no human word for it last I checked.
no subject
I'm not really expecting sleeping with people to become that integral of a tool in this particular mission.
Huh. What's the function supposed to be? Protector of bond, most immediate manifestation of bond, director of bond?
no subject
Not yet, maybe. What's your preference?
They're the "house," so to speak. The heart-half is what resides in it.
no subject
Here I thought you just wanted me to kill people. Preference?
I can see how that makes sense. They could be then, yes. Rogers and Barnes. Maybe if the latter gets more of who he was back.
no subject
It's not the only thing, have some patience.
I like him as he is, to be honest.
no subject
By all means, please, put off new and strange means of planetary destruction as long as you like.
He's miserable how he is.
no subject
Are you actually asking?
Happiness is a little overrated, anyway.
