Sorry. I'm just trying to understand why you're asking, all right? [He is new here, and he's run into all kinds.] That's all I wanted to know.

[He's not a fan of simply satisfying morbid curiosity. Although he supposes his answer to your question isn't exactly a secret around here, anyway. Not that it's public knowledge either, though, exactly.]

I lost Bucky. [And he's working on fixing it, but no one can know that.] And I didn't handle it. I went on a suicide mission instead.

[Which Bucky is pissed about, but look, Steve's still here. No harm done, right?]
