I thought I'd done something right. For once I'd built something that would outlast me, that'd be a better legacy than decades of weapons development. Something that could really protect people from shit they shouldn't ever have to worry about.

It's always been something I figured, that Steve would outlive me. I'm a man in a can at the end of the day. I age. Getting up from the hits gets harder every time I'm knocked down. So I stepped back and trusted him to see it through. And maybe if it weren't for everything piling in on all at once? He would've.

They were supposed to trust me that I'd do right by them. They weren't supposed to break the way they did, and he wasn't supposed to go off without talking to me and trusting me to try and fix shit.

So both, I guess.
