Summary
Yelena takes in a sharp breath. Closes her eyes. Bob swears he can hear the air conditioner, it’s so quiet.
When she opens her eyes again, her lower lip trembles. “I thought you knew I cared about you. And that— that’s the only point of all this. To keep you safe.”
Honesty shines through her eyes like a beacon. And yet…
“Is it?” he whispers. “I’m not just your—“
Project. Inconvenience. Pet. Mission.
He never gets to finish the sentence. They all hear it anyways.
-------
TL;DR: After too many months of being caged in the tower, treated like a little kid, Bob breaks down and starts the long journey of healing and finding purpose, supported by his new fucked up family. Well, except for one of them, but maybe that's for the best.
Now a series!

He feels angry.

2/The voice is muffled, distant. Familiar. Concerned.Bucky.
“Hey man, you good?” the team leader asks from the other side of the bathroom door. “Heard a bang and thought I should come check on you. I won’t come in, but just— you know. Wanted to make sure you’re okay in there.”
Bob bites his lip to choke back a whimper, of all things.
How pathetic, the voice mocks. Like a puppy caught out in the rain. Pitiful.
“—ob? You okay? I really don’t wanna break the door down, but I—“
“I’m g-good,” he manages through chattering teeth. It’s hoarse, but it’s enough to reach serum-enhanced ears.
