    “Well,” Steve said, and pushed his plate away. “We’ll just have to break in and get them.”

    “Right, let’s take it from the top,” Natasha said wearily. “The Raft is a fully submersible supermax prison—“

    “We can do it,” Steve said.

    “The coat, only?” he asked, and his voice held a promise of something I had not known it could. The last time, the first time we had come together, he had let me set every part of the pace, but here we were on more even footing.
