On tonights episode.

[notmagic]

At least the speech went well.

Well. Mostly. Perhaps it could have gone a little better. Just a touch. But they did seem rather taken with us. It. Taken with the speech.

Well, better then perhaps the ones we attended. So. That's a plus.

I hear it was going over really well up until it got interrupted.

[notmagic]

I thought so. They did seem rather..entrapped about it all. Simmions did well.

The interruption was...unfortunate.

[sonofcoul]

Unfortunate is a good word for it.

[notmagic]

So is "super storm".

[busdriver]

[Those cadets definitely seemed impressed by FitzSimmons' handling of the interruption.

Drily:] Sorry I missed it.

[Mom will attend your next dance recital, honey. And don't even think about starting that Operations versus Sci-Tech stuff with her.]

[sonofcoul]

It was a string of unfortunate.

[notmagic]

[ It seems they're more adapt at being out and thinking on there feet then they thought even themselves would be. They seem fine as long as Simmions isn't shooting a superior officer. ]

Ah. Well...Not sure it would have had the same impact on someone from operations.

[ THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID LAST TIME AS WELL. He's not trying to start a thing. He's just pointing out that the finer aspects might have gone over May's head. They were quite literately two sentences away from saying "with great power comes great.." ]

[notmagic]

Yes. Yes sir it was.

[ And he can't feel at least a little responsible about how that all happened.]

[busdriver]

Probably not.

[She went through a long, long time ago. She isn't taking the bait.

Although, if he's implying that there's no inherent power or responsibility in being able to break a man's arm at three points in three seconds...]

[notmagic]

[ The difference between the two if that while she might have the power to break a mans arm at three points in three seconds. The class at sc-tech have the ability to build tech that would break half the population in three point seconds. It's a small difference. ]

Sky. Enjoyed it. I think.

Unless she was crying about it later...Which, would have been unfortunate.

[sonofcoul]

What happened wasn't your fault, you know.

[notmagic]

I fixed his power source. I was so wrapped up in..

It's a little bit my fault. He was me. Or I thought he was me. Didn't see it coming.

[sonofcoul]

You were wrapped up in helping an Academy cadet who had been the victim of a seeming attack. Nobody would have seen that coming.

[notmagic]

The power source problem..I should have realized then. Staring me right in the face. It was based on something I'd come up with originally.

[sonofcoul]

Hindsight usually makes things look a lot more obvious than they actually were.

[busdriver]

[Guess it doesn't matter who goes in and wrestles the detonator for that tech away from the bad guys.

Is he sure he's not starting? It sounds like he's starting. It sounds like a dick-measuring contest.

In unrelated news, all the CXD 23 Airborne Mobile Command Station manual has to say about superstorms is don't.]

Skye's had a big week.

[If Fitz caught her in an emotional moment, he shouldn't assume causation.]

[notmagic]

[ The point of the speech was to stop the tech from getting to the bad guys in the first place by hopefully not inventing it. Or something.

He's not starting. He'd start with Ward. Not you. Really. Not starting.

Yeah. There should have been something about "Don't help fix powersources on missions like that." on there somewhere.]

Everyone has.

[ Coulson barely coming out of his office. Sky cying. It's a whole thing.]

[busdriver]

[In light of how things turned out, that's an important point to be making.

Good.

They can't have a firm rule for those situations. Next time, fixing something might actually work out in their favor. There's no point blaming himself.

What do you mean, "everyone"? May's fine, just so you know. It's business as usual over here; or at least that's what she'd like him to think.]

You okay?
