[ "The High Evolutionary" is a title that doesn't mean much to Steve at all, but that isn't surprising when there's an entire galaxy out there of problems that have to be solved. While he trusts that people like the Guardians and Carol will do their best to keep an eye on things, he also worries that the galaxy is simply too big to be managed by such a small group.
Not that there's much he can do about that, either here or back home. He'd chosen a different path for himself, one that still doesn't sit right with him, but he doesn't need to get into all that now.
"A maniac who thought himself a god" is so typical to the same rants that Steve has heard time and time again (from Loki, from Ultron, from Thanos) that he can't help but make a face, his mouth twisting with disdain. It's just a different flavor of the same old thing, although the mention of "Counter-Earth" does draw a confused look out of him. He wants to ask, of course, but then Nebula admits to her concern about the kids she left behind and he has to address that first. ]
From everything we've been able to learn from people going home and coming back, you at least don't have to worry about them being without you. Time basically stops back home, and if you make it back there you should be able to pick up where you left off. So... there's that.
[ He's also concerned about what she means by "latest venture," but forcing her to recount whatever this High Evolutionary tried to do to these kids seemed unnecessary. What mattered is that they'd been rescued. ]
