Steve shouldn't accept the drink, knowing how it'll affect him. But if he has some, it's that much less drunk Thor's going to drive himself tonight. That's as easy an excuse as any to accept. Steve's hand doesn't shake when he takes the bottle from Thor nor when he pulls from it with only the slightest noises. It's so strange every time to have alcohol affect him anymore. Sometimes he wishes...

But those are poisonous pointless thoughts. It's better that he can't or he'd have killed himself with it by now. Steve's sure of that.

"We're going to have to be. At least for a few minutes in each timeline. I don't know if..." Steve cuts himself off with another sip and this time he has to shudder for its potency before he passes the bottle back to Thor.

"Doesn't matter what I know or don't. We either do this or it's over. That's always been enough for me. It has to work. It Just Has To."
