There's this whole 'brainwashing' part he likes to gloss over. Zero agency. Literally had no choice in the matter. I shouldn't have to forgive him for what he did, because he didn't do it, but I did, because he needed to hear it. Me and Barnes? We're square.
Steve and I agreed on a clean slate and that's fine but- I'm not going to be less bitter.
The initiative. It was more than the team we had on hand, it was what it could grow into, what it was meant to be. I stepped back for personal reasons to retire and you know. Live a life. I trusted Steve with it because I knew it mattered to him.
Not enough, I guess, but- there was a lot going on. I hold exactly zero percent of that clusterfuck against Bucky. He didn't have any say in it.
