[Small tells are still tells, and it's the reaction she's come to expect besides. But that doesn't make it easier--watching Phil take it in, or being prompted to tell the story of how it happened again.

She stiffens, her gaze finally setting on a neutral spot in the center of the table. She tries to tell the story with as little emotion as possible, not wanting to get caught up in the horrible memories, but Pepper knows it's too much to hope for.]

Steve--Steve got infected too, and I went to see him. But he was already gone, and he got away from the people containing him. When Bucky stopped him, I was standing too close.

[Seeing Pepper stiffen up and not meet his eyes is painful but he gets it.

He had heard about Steve, and about Bucky but this. This was new.

Phil reaches across the table to take Pepper's hand. It's not like he can hug her in the middle of Seventh Heaven, but some physical reassurance is needed. For both of them at this point.]

And that's when you were infected. The blood must of been carrying the contagion.

[She manages a small smile when he takes her hand, squeezing his in return. The expression is short lived, however, and she nods.]

Yes. Any bodily fluid, according to the doctor, but--it was the blood.

[The splatter that she could still feel on her skin, in it, if she lets her mind linger on the thought too long.]

They gave me the proto-cure; it stopped the virus from deteriorating my mind, but not the other symptoms. So I wouldn't attack anyone.

[And it left her aware of everything that happened to her body.]
