[ Bucky wants to argue that there are limits. It's not whatever it takes, because there's a lot of things Bucky couldn't live with. Pain isn't one of them.
They can talk about it later, though. Right now, he just wants to sit here with Steve. He's spent a lot of time on his own, weakened and lost and confused. Now, he has Steve and that's enough to bring him the comfort he needs. He's not alone anymore. He can admit, at least to himself, that that is a huge and important thing and there's no one he'd rather be with than Steve right now. ]
[he has questions, of course. ones he knows he should probably be asking- can he remove his arm? will painkillers work now? does he want to lie down for a while? -but instead, steve is content to stay exactly where he is, for however long bucky wants him there. he trusts the other man enough to know he'll say something if the pain starts to get any worse. to move if he needs to. later, there will be time for working out how to manage that pain. time to set a routine for medication and heat and he definitely needs to look in to modern medicine a little more. but for the time being, he isn't moving. that's an issue for the afternoon instead.]
