[Another ninety seconds after the suit leaves, the injured man finally begins to stir, rasping out a breath as he tries to lift his head. He finds that the action reminds him of just how much pain he's in--which happens to be a lot. He can't recall a time he's been covered in as much of his own blood as he is now.
A cautious glance from the ground reveals that his assailant has left the area. Iron Man didn't even bother to stay and finish him off while he was vulnerable, or underestimated him and thought that these wounds would be enough to kill him. He doesn't know whether to be relieved or furious.
He decides on the latter. He should have known that Stark would make his move as soon as Steve was gone.
His anger and drive allow him to ignore the pain and weakness his body feels as he pushes forward, stealthily making his way to the shared apartment in order to avoid any possibility of being spotted by the man in that damned suit.
When he finally arrives on the eighth floor, panting and covered in blood, ash and glass, he doesn't hesitate. With an electric keening sound likely audible from inside the apartment, he wrenches the door off its hinges and tosses it halfway down the hall in order to find the engineer inside.]
i'm quite pleased
