    Summary

    He remembers the explosion. He remembers his back hitting the ground, his vision darkening, the ringing in his ears. He remembers seeing Jack’s unconscious body before blacking out.

    He remembers waking up in a hospital bed two days later with his ankle sprained, his mind stupefied by drugs. He remembers Barton looking down at him with a grim face. He doesn’t remember his exact words, but he does their meaning.

    Jack’s dead.

    The world doesn’t wait for him to pull himself together.
