bucky's glare gets a sort of half-shrug out of sam. he's getting to a point where the glare doesn't mean anything at all to him, considering more often than not that's just bucky's face. when he mentions going down to the dungeons, though, sam frowns, his expression darkening slightly. ]

[ he has his suspicions, but any time anyone starts messing with large numbers of people (relatively 'large') from places that aren't their own. sam's gut isn't super happy about it. and he's pretty sure bucky is on the same page. ]
