Steve is grateful for Bucky's appearance in that particular moment. Rikki's concern about the corpse brings out a very... broad spectrum of emotions.

Denial of the need to hide it being chief among them.

He isn't a criminal, there was nothing shameful in the fight. He's not about to act in a way that makes him look - what? Guilty?

The body itself though, the clear impression it left on Rikki, makes him wonder all over again what kind of world she comes from, that she can have done the things she's done without it leaving the scars of visceral violence.

And it raises the question once again of whether or not he should be killing at all, though for reasons vastly different than Batman's blanket creed.

He leads Bucky to the back room, saying nothing but a brief, "She's awake" in answer to his question.

Steve himself stands clear, letting Bucky and Rikki have the room. To the latter, he says, "I'll talk to his friends. Make sure they come back for him."

That much, he'll do. He smiles to make sure she knows he's not upset with her. "You rest, all right? I'll be back."
