MCU - Small Steps Set Me Free
Title: Small Steps Set Me Free
Fandom: MCU
Rating: G
Notes: Rhodey does therapy after the Civil War.
Jim took a deep breath, racing thoughts threatening to drag him down again, steeled himself, leaned forward, hands tightly gripping the metal rails. “OK,” he said. “Ready.”
His physical therapist renewed his grip on the wide strap, shifting his feet to take more of Jim’s weight. “Just a few steps, then rest.”
Jim nodded, an up and down jerk of his chin, and focused on sliding one stubborn foot forward. He wobbled as his center of gravity moved out of balance, paused, then struck out again.
“You’re talking to someone about the depression?”
Jim nodded sharply. “I know. No shame.”
