He nods, and doesn't ask what she was doing. Steve is pretty sure he knows - besides, she's going to have to explain to several parties, and making her repeat it yet again won't do her any favors. He starts to get up, and then hisses and stays down on his knees. His feet must have been burned worse than he thought - maybe he stepped in something. He can't really remember. All he knows for sure is that breathing hurts and his back feels like it's had the flesh stripped from it, which in truth is quite possible.
Steve is about to ask JARVIS to call help when help arrives in the form of Jane and Tony and a gaggle of medical staff that look like they were supplied by SHIELD. Steve sits down, relieved, and blinks up at their aid feeling a little bemused. Jane is dusted with crumbs and wearing a bathrobe, and Tony looks like he was working on something greasy either in his shop or the garage. "Does anyone sleep in this place?" Steve says, and it has that distant quality to it that tells him the burns are probably driving him into shock.
Well goodness. It has been a while.
"Jumproping Jesus," Tony whispers, and he's standing back and pacing while the medical staff move in. Steve starts to wave them off, to tell them to look after Olivia first, but Tony points at him like his index finger may in fact be loaded and ready to fire.
"Shut it, Rogers, and take your babying like a man."
Jane, for her part is hovering over Olivia. "What happened? Did you- were you- You know you can't really create a successful test scenario without setting up the test, I thought we talked about this, about you, about making sure there were, were, contingencies in place in case something- Not that I really expected things to explode, how did that happen exactly?"

The last part is more curious than worried.
