[So long as Steve is here to keep Victor distracted, he won't be poking at that brain. It's not a fullproof plan, since Steve's pretty sure that the moment he leaves the room Victor will go right back to it, but the fact remains that he's not done with this conversation yet.
Especially with that veiled threat. For your own sake, and it's the paranoia talking more than anything, but that implies that Victor believes harm will come to Steve if he stays here. Steve feels his spine straighten and has to shake off the sensation of hairs on the back of his neck standing at attention.
He's never one to cower away from an unveiled threat, let alone a veiled one, and he takes another commanding step toward Victor.] What's that supposed to mean?
[Much as Victor might want answers, or an explanation for why they're here, it's not even that complicated. He must have figured out how events work by now, but Steve decides to remind him just in case.]
There is no reason. This is based off of someone's memories, that's all. It's up to us to live through it.
