He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at the other. Now, Dum Dum wasn’t necessarily the brightest man in the world, but he definitely wasn’t born yesterday. He was more than capable of catching some of the subtleties in other people’s actions. And in all honesty? Well. While James Barnes might be a decently subtle sort of man…his buddy? Jesus Christ. Dugan had never seen a guy more blatantly obvious. It was almost embarrassing.

“Not really. Did I miss you and the good Captain having a lively conversation? A bit difficult to do.” Argument more likely, but at least the idiots had the sense not to broadcast that fact with their voices. Bad enough that Dugan had caught on. But really, it was difficult not to notice, considering how squirrely the good captain had gotten. Not to mention the stomping around and the way that two assholes that usually spent a great deal of time together were avoiding each other.

It didn’t take a genius like Howard to figure that one out. Dugan shook his head, reaching into his pocket for a pack of cigarettes. When he was faced with a conversation that he didn’t enjoy, or at least irked him, he was more inclined to smoking. But then…he was more inclined to smoke in general now, so perhaps it was just the time for another damn cigarette. If he had to continue to watch two leading members of the team squabble…well then he deserved several dozen.

“Are mom and dad going to make up already, or do I have to go find a new job?” Dugan finally asked, turning to face Sarge as he lit his cigarette. “Can’t plan the next Hydra party if you two don’t get it together. Don’t gotta spell it out for ya here do I Sarge?” He inhaled a delightful breath and let out the smoke with a sigh. “Maybe I do. Alright. If the two highest rankin’ officers of the Commandos are on the outs, this team will cease to function. Can’t let it get so…personal. There’s a war on…apparently.”

Dugan couldn’t help but snort. “Yeah you wish buddy. That’d make your life easier right?” He might not be the simplest guy to work with on the team, but he liked to think that he also could lighten the mood places where it occasionally needed it. That and…well, the Sarge could be an asshole, and Dugan could handle it. Clearly, as otherwise he’d be a lot more pissed off about his Sergeant suggesting him getting sucked up in some weird science vortex.

He shook his head, reaching for the flask he always had on hand. The war was case enough to want to have alcohol on hand whenever possible. “If you wanna get rid of me you just shoot me like a regular person. None of that science fiction crap like you read.” Dum Dum hated stories like that. He didn’t like the uncertainty of it all. He didn’t like any of that shit. 

The man took a long sip of his flask and glanced over at his friend. “Was lookin’ for some more booze. Not a lot to grab over here. Think you can get some more? Y’know…for all the troops?”

Nothing truly made sense anymore. They were a hell of a long way from Brooklyn. Steve was here, and he was still Steve, but he also wasn’t. Luckily, pretending everything was okay was an art Bucky had long since perfected. He was fine. This was fine. There was a surprising amount of blood on the ground, and he’d grown used to seeing a lot of blood, but this was coming out of him. Who knew he had that much blood to lose? The sounds of gunfire and shouting had turned into white noise around him. He was fine.

It was better than dying strapped to a table, anyway.

Hands grabbed him, and he let out a choked yelp of pain involuntarily, curling in on himself a little as he was dragged. Okay. Not so fine. He half throws an elbow, weakly, before hearing his name. Well, Sarge. Close enough. He knows that voice. He’s not being strapped to another table. “Heard loud and clear,” he mumbled, reaching up to pat his friend’s arm like everything was okay. He had to be okay. Everyone was counting on him, whether Steve was goddamned Captain America or not. “The hell’re you doin’? Get back out there.”

Dum Dum tsked. Leave it to Barnes to get himself in a mess like this and still try to give out orders. Now, he respected the man. Really, he respected the hell out of Sergeant Barnes. But in a situation where the man was down and needed help...there was no way in hell that Dugan would follow orders to leave the man there to die. If he was disciplined later? So be it. He had a duty to his CO just as his CO had a duty to him and the guys. Even if Rogers was in command, Barnes was still very much a CO to him.

He snorted. “Yeah ‘m sure you did. Idiot.” He shook his head, working quickly so that he could to catalog his injuries. “Well I ain’t the medic, so you’ll have to settle for me binding it quick and tuggin’ you outta the immediate fire zone.” And then Dugan would have to find a way to defend the Sarge, or at least hide him so he could involve himself in the conflict again. “Respectfully Sarge, I’m here to look out for ya. If you wanna protest that, you can take it up with me later when we both survive this madness.”

This mission was supposed to be an easy one. By all accounts, by all relevant intel, the troops that they encountered weren’t supposed to be there at all. But the intel had been horribly, horribly misled. That much was clear with the volume of HYDRA agents that swarmed that part of the forest, causing Dugan to duck behind a tree where he could have a slightly better position to fire from. “Jesus fucking Christ, these bastards are way too many heads!” He shouted, shaking his head as he continued to go after any Nazi bastard that he could. It was a mess. The Cap was already scrambling for way to salvage it, but Dum Dum didn’t like their chances.

“At least these assholes are rotten shots, huh Sarge?” Dugan added, accustomed to the banter that the two had in situations. It was something that helped steady Dugan. Finding the humor in a frankly depressing situation. “Sarge?” He repeated, a frown crossing his face as his CO ignored his words. He hadn’t thought they had split all that far apart, and so when he turned, ducking and narrowly avoiding a shot to the head, he spotted his Sergeant on the ground. “Fucking god damn nazi fucking bastards for fucking fuck’s sake,” he cursed, diving down toward his friend and reaching out to tug him as far from the line of fire as he possibly could. “Sarge. Hey buddy...you hearin’ me?”

Dugan took a moment to just breathe. He just needed that minute to get a good breath in. Really consider what he had just heard before ultimately he opened up his mouth and, “you’re a god damn idiot.”

One thing I find with my portrayal of Dugan, is that he is very set with how he refers to the Commandos. But more specifically what names he uses when he speaks to Bucky and to Steve. Steve is rarely, if ever, going to be referred to as Steve by him. It’s a respect thing, but also a certain desire to have some distance too. He’ll refer to him as Rogers, as Cap, Captain. The instances he uses Steve are more than likely more emotional situations where his attention might need to be grabbed. I’m thinking one instance in particular where he would’ve gone to calling him Steve.

As for Bucky...it’s this whole other can of worms. Sarge is the go to. It’s what Dugan likes best and it’s easy to say. It shows the respect that is due to Bucky as Dugan’s CO before Captain America, and an ongoing respect for him. I always view them as close, and despite that he insists on using Sarge. If he doesn’t, it’s usually because something is wrong not right. In a situation where say something were to be revealed about Bucky that he couldn’t approve of, it would be reduced to Barnes. It’s a very cold and calculating thing, and it is made very clear with one word/one last name how he feels. And then you go with Bucky. Well Bucky is something Dugan can’t dignify himself to say. It’s a weird thing, and largely to do with the respect that he has for him. Honestly. The other part after so long forming a habit with saying one thing, it’s just plain weird for him to think differently. He can’t do it.

@arcreactorforaheart liked this for a starter!

For a 90 year old, Dugan liked to think he was hanging in there. At least, he could say that he hadn’t keeled over and died when he saw the news headlines about Tony. That was something. He was sure that if anyone else his age had to read about that fiasco would have. But not Dum Dum. Dum Dum immediately started yelling, climbing out of bed and shocking his nurse who had been waiting to serve him some breakfast. “Sir...Mr. Dugan you need to-” “Ah shut up Christina. I’ve got better things to do than sit on my ass today.”

He grabbed hold of his cane, wobbling out of the care home he had been placed in by his kids. He could do this. It took him time to get into the city, getting the help of a taxi driver to bring him to Stark tower. “God this better be a damn joke.” He stumbled into the building, one hand raised with a gun, the other with his cane. “Everybody better get the hell outta my way and tell me where Anthony Edward Stark is.” His nephew was sure going to get an earful from Dugan. As long of one as he could give him before he keeled over and died.
