Well that one he did have to think about, especially as the question came right on the heels of the statement about his heart which made both things sound more than a little like a threat, but not one that he could actually pin down in any real way.
But finally he shook his head, "No." There were parts of it he'd like to forget, but he knew those parts were tied too tightly with things he didn't want to forget under any circumstances, "Not when it would mean everyone's still in danger." That was really what it boiled down to, sure, he could forget about what had happened in the Russian bunker, but that would mean forgetting that he could win a fight, and what Robin actually meant to him, why she trusted him the way she did.
That was how it was with every piece he might want to forget, forgetting that piece would lead to forgetting more, and it just wasn't worth it in the long run.
