The question is a hard one. Not because it was hard to talk about but because there really wasn't an answer. Not an easy answer. Not an answer he could give Steve and it explain everything.
"I wouldn't say anyone hurt me... I hurt people." Steve knows that, Suzaku has hurt Steve, hurt Bucky. But it's still not easy to talk about.
Not at all. It's never easy to look someone in the eye and shatter their concept of him as a person worth... anything.
"I'm a murderer Steve. I've killed... Millions. I don't have anyone I am close to who I have not hurt. I don't want..." He sat even stiffer, formality worn as armour.
