It's difficult to say exactly. [Time travels strangely in the multiverses and this secret place between them.] But we remember him from when Cathaway was a younger woman. He was in one of the first broods we oversaw, and we've seen lots of them.
[The man in the compartment is perfectly preserved, perfectly quiet, perfectly-- No, not still. Not quite. He moves so slightly it might as well be imperceptible, but somewhere in that body a facsimile of life must remain.]
He's unconscious, and has been for many cycles. [Maybe if it were Sam Wilson or Bucky Barnes or someone equally familiar with this version of Steve Rogers, they might notice the subtle lines at the corners of his eyes, the wrinkle in his cheek from frowning. But looking down on him like this, it's hard to say if he's really so much older than he was in whatever moment he'd been taken to the Station.] We believe he's the last of his brood still in storage here. The rest that were have been absorbed into the Station as their symbiotes withered, but this one is still technically alive.
[Barely.]
Maybe the Station recognized your mental patterns and thought he would like it if his things were passed along to you. It adapts how it can to please us - even those of us who are barely connected to it.
