( wanting to drink the memory away is not exactly a "yeah things are chill" answer, but Steve is a male from the 80s so he respects that they can only dig so far into their feelings about how all that went down. )
Because that was fucked up and I don't remember much after she died and maybe you got hurt or something? I don't know.
( he does know. he has been kinda worried because he possesses something called empathy. but that's an embarrassing thing for a boy to have so they don't have to talk about it. )
[ Aegon has so many feelings and that 80s toxic masculinity exists even in ye olde fantasyland, so this New Friend(?) is not yet privy to any of them. he will remember this, though. ]
If you truly feared I was hurt, your worry is impressively delayed. I could've been dead and you'd be sending anxious little messages to a corpse.
I knew you weren't dead, dumbass. I was in the pit when you landed. She clawed me up, not you.
( is this friendship too new to call someone a dumbass? probably. unfortunately, Steve can and will say it to even his most preferred people, so Aegon is surely not exempt. )
Real funny. ( it is not funny, and he is not laughing. he is too sore about how all that went down, both physically and emotionally, to have a sense of humor about it. )

Are you good. After all that shit with Agnete. That was really fucked up.

I'd rather drown the memory in wine and wake without a thought in my head, but since that's beyond my reach, yes, I'm good. ... Why?

You're clearly fine. Forget I asked.

I won't forget. It means so much to me. [ this is actually very true even though he sounds incredibly sarcastic. ]

Are you this much of a dick all the time, or is the hole thing making you worse.

"British thing?"
