[Canon doesn't show Poland wearing one, but it DOES show him holding Mass during battle like, a month before the time I took him from, so it'd be WEIRD if he didn't have at least one on him.]
Keep it to yourself! I totally don't want to see it!
[He isn't so caught off guard by the gun this time... but he needs time to reload the crossbow between shots, one huge disadvantage they have over modern weapons. So he's moving before America starts shooting, which isn't enough to keep him from getting hit, but it's enough that he only gets hit once, the bullet slicing through his armor and grazing his side as he runs. He hardly feels it through the adrenaline.]
[As fast as he can without messing up, he reloads the crossbow and steps further into the hallway and away from the corner, ready to shoot the instant America comes into view.]
