Of course Steve, shaking apart and looking more than a little out of it, would immediately ask about Tony. "Grounded, but in one piece," he said, trying to project as much reassurance into the words as possible. He would have flipped the faceplate up to prove it, but trying to get as much information from what few sensors were still working at the moment was probably a bigger priority. So he kept a hand on Steve's shoulder, lingering as close as he could to remind Steve that someone was there while he searched the area for anything helpful.
No other heat signatures, which was at least one problem down. They were still out in the open, though, which meant first priority was getting under cover. And then Steve shuddered even harder under Tony's gauntleted hand, and he immediately switched first priority to finding somewhere to hole them up properly.
With a muffled curse, Tony flicked the HUD screens away from tracking bodies to scanning their surroundings. The jutting mountains around them made it pretty clear that they weren't going to be walking back to civilization any time soon, and Tony was definitely not going to head back towards the Hydra base in the hopes that they'd managed to clear it out. Which pretty much left the hope that someone had a cabin out here or that there would be...a cave.
Pretty much one of his least favorite places. But as Tony turned to narrow his attention in on the place, it seemed reasonably shallow, but more importantly it was out of the elements and defensible. With Steve practically going into shock next to him, Tony could deal with a bit of dislike for his surroundings.
"We need to move," he said, helmet swinging back towards Steve. "Can you walk?"
