Steve settled down a bit, though he was still tense.

T'Challa looked at Mavin for a moment before he nodded. "It will be a while get before my technicians have finished," he told them. "If you all would like any refreshments, let us know." A couple of people appeared in opposite doorways to offer assistance and keep an eye on everyone.

A few hours later, a med tech came into the room.

"Captain Rodgers," the tech said, "he will be waking up shortly."

Steve shot to his feet again, and this time T'Challa didn't even try to stop him. He just herded everyone out at a more sedate pace after Steve.

So of course Steve got there first, hovering anxiously and waiting for Bucky to wake.

Mavin followed, though she hung back once they were back in the cryo room.

Mere moments after they got there, the cryo pod opened with a hiss, and some mist rolled out as the glass lowered away. Bucky shook his head a bit and blinked his eyes open, glancing around.

Steve grinned a bit at that, looking at him. "Finally awake again, Sleeping Beauty?" He teased.

"Damn," Bucky said shaking his head again. "Never came out of it that slow before." He looked at Steve, and then around the room. "What's going on?"

"Well, we have a potential solution for any triggers left in there." Steve smiled a bit.

"Really?" Bucky asked. He paused for a second. "How long was I under?"

"Not that long," Steve said with a shrug. "Long enough for things to simmer down some, anyway. And for help to arrive." He nodded at the Professor.

Bucky glanced over.

Xavier nodded to him in greeting.

"Sergeant Barnes," he said. "I am Charles Xavier. I'm hopeful that I can help you."

Bucky nodded. Yeah, he recognized Xavier; he'd been on the short list of people that his former handlers had kept an eye on.

Steve smiled a bit. "Things might be okay," he murmured.

Lucy watched the two of them, absently keeping track of the emotions in the room.

"You trust him?" Bucky murmured back to Steve. He'd never met Xavier, himself, but he knew that there was next to nobody in the world who would want to help him. But he would trust Xavier if Steve did.

Mavin shifted a bit so she was closer to Lucy.

"How did you get roped into this one?" she asked quietly.

"I do," Steve murmured. "He'll help you. I think he can really do it, Buck."

"The professor asked me to come along," Lucy murmured. "Something about training and socialization and being helpful."

Bucky considered that for a moment, and then nodded.

"Alright," he said. He studied Steve for another moment. "Something else is bothering you. What is it?"

Mavin grinned a bit.

"Are you being antisocial again?" she teased.

Steve hesitated, tempted to not tell him. Then he sighed.

"The UN wants a demonstration of the trigger," he murmured. "To prove that it wasn't you."

"According to the Professor," Lucy murmured with a little pout.

Bucky tensed.

"Why would they risk that?" he asked. "There's no telling what would happen."

"And everyone else we know," Mavin teased, grinning a bit.

"I know," Steve murmured. "They want proof. They won't take my word." He made a face.

Lucy chuckled quietly. "Them, too," she agreed quietly. She did glance over at Barnes when she felt his anxiety.

"Can't exactly blame 'em, Stevie," Bucky murmured back. "Goin' AWOL to bust out a war criminal ain't exactly trustworthy."

"What's happening?" Mavin asked quietly when she saw Lucy's attention snap over to the supersoldiers.

Steve huffed. "You're too calm about this," he muttered. "Fine. Guess we have to do that."

"They're both pretty tense," Lucy murmured. "Not at a threat level yet, though."

"Can't afford to overreact, not yet," Bucky replied. In spite of that, his remaining hand was clenched into a fist and shaking a bit.

"Let me know," Mavin said softly. "Just so I know if I need to duck or something."

Steve sighed. "We'll plan it out, put some security checks in place," he murmured. "Nothing bad will happen."

"Not yet," Lucy replied after a moment.

Bucky didn't relax immediately.

"Don't make promises you can't keep," he muttered.

"Okay," Mavin said. She sighed a bit. "I'm going to be so jetlagged tomorrow, I just know it, and that's just never fun. I'm kind of hoping whatever room they stick me in has a bathtub big enough to lounge in."

"I'll make sure nothing happens," Steve said, shaking his head a bit. "Even if we have to come back here. You know me, Buck. You know I won't give up on you so easy."

"Even if yours doesn't, mine does," Lucy replied with a little shrug. "You can come lounge in mine. I doubt I'll get much sleep tonight anyway."

"Yeah," Bucky muttered. "I guess." He still hated the idea, but there wasn't much he could do about it.

"Might take you up on that one," Mavin said. She grinned. "Brought a couple of bath bombs with me, the fizzy ones that smell like milk and honey. And one of those shimmery ones."

"It will be okay," Steve murmured. "Even if I have to make it okay."

"If you use the shimmery one without warning I will end you," Lucy told her conversationally, her attention still partially focused on the rest of the room.
