That was the wrong argument to use in trying to convince Loki. Though he could be given to acts of generosity at times, it was rarely on a large scale and altruism did not suit him. To have the plea that Steve Rogers wanted the chance to save others and help others, it was mildly distasteful.

It seemed he truly was of a kin with Thor, more so than the blood mingled in his veins made him kin to Loki. He had no idea who Bucky was, nor did he care, for doubtless it was the name of a mortal.

"And yet you have not given any reason why you deserve such a chance to try. You carry my blood in your veins, diluted and weakened, but my blood still. I would not allow you to risk dishonouring my name with your actions."
