Date: 2011-01-12 09:10 pm (UTC)But their eyes catch and something in them makes him hesitate. Makes him think that maybe he could have one of his favorite brothers by his side instead of dead by his hand.
Lucifer watches those eyes for long moments; sees the despair become confusion, confusion become wariness and wariness become calculation with the slightest edge of hope.
It's the hope that causes him to remember his purpose.
"I'm sorry, Gabriel." Lucifer says as he stabs his brother.
He has to lose his eyes: he can't stand to see the betrayal again.

...
Bucky decides to take the shortcut home from Pa's work instead of the long way, so he doesn't see the little boy getting beat up by three bigger boys.
He still drops out of school to help make ends meet because he has three little sisters, and he still gets drafted after America joins the war. He's a bit softer, maybe, than he might have been, but still a brilliant soldier. When the 107th is captured, no one comes for them.
Hydra still gets their Winter Soldier.
.
Steve limps home and Ma fusses at him. He never stops fighting but the only person on his side is Ma, and she dies when he's 18. He takes work wherever he can get it, and whenever his body is up to it. He tries enlisting a dozen times.
He gets in a fight at the Stark Expo; Dr. Erskine sees it and gives him a chance, which he grabs onto with both hands.
It's the hardest thing he ever does, but Steve becomes Captain America. He spends a year making the circuit selling war bonds before Peggy convinces Phillips to give him a chance, and they get word of Schmidt’s plan to bomb everything.
Captain America still goes into the ice.
.
Steve doesn’t recognize the Winter Soldier. No one does anymore.
The Winter Soldier doesn’t know the man on the bridge.
On the helicarrier, Steve wears the new uniform and doesn’t hesitate; the Winter Soldier shoots to kill.
Project Insight is defeated but it costs Captain America and the Winter Soldier both their lives.
.
(One morning, while he was watching Steve try to eat, Bucky asked, “What d’ya think would’ve happened if we never met?”
Steve had shrugged. “You woulda been better off, Buck,” he said, “and I’d’a been worse.”
Bucky laughed, shaking his head. “Think you got that backwards, punk.”)
