[ It's a fair question, and Steve's pace slows slightly as he thinks it over. ]

I meant here, but I guess it applies back home too.

[ They've had the talk by now, about what happened to Steve when he left to return the Stones. About why Sam had been left to take on the mantle of Captain America, and it hadn't come easily. (How could it?) It's something he's still processing, if he's honest, and he hadn't expected this to come up with Geralt of all people.

Though maybe he should have, given how close he knows he and Sam have become. ]

Actually, things are a lot less complicated here. I'm offering him support where I can, but he was doing just fine without me.

[ Again, he means this in a genuine way, completely without any sort of resentment. If anything, he sounds proud. ]
