You're my handler. You figure out what to do next.




...vacation might be nice.

[Oh. My. God.

She is not freaking out. Nope. See that face? Ice.]

Your handler has good taste.

[In other words: hi.]

[shieldsupernanny]

[Of course ice, these are SHIELD agents, they don't visibly emote except when they do.] She does, doesn't she? She's trying to be very nice about the whole thing.

[Pause. Because he really means this.] You did good work out there.

[redheadpepper]

I think we could all use one of those.

[shieldsupernanny]

When you take vacations, does Stark actually go with, because that doesn't strike me as a particularly useful vacation.

[worldsbestmarksman]

[Clint will be over here really hoping to vanish into the wall because all of this.

His bonehead underestimating..

It's worse because Coulson wasn't Stark or the demi-god or even Banner. He was SHIELD. He was a coworker.]

Hey.

[shieldsupernanny]

Agent Barton.

[Not your fault. SHIELD doesn't really have protocol for being taken over by a demi-god and his shiny tesseract. They will after this, but that's not his problem anymore.]

[zackmorrisintights]

See, that's what I said. Before my mun saw the movie anyways.

[shieldsupernanny]

Going on a vacation?

[chickfury]

[ If she's shows any surprise at the fact he's alive. It doesn't show. Yep.]

...Agent Coulson.

[shieldsupernanny]

Agent Hill. [Nice to see SHIELD stoicism classes still have a high success rate.]

[theothereight]

Call the cellist.

[Pepper is not a shield person, so she isn't playing this at all cool. There's a huge smile and her eyes are red. From pollen. Dust. Strawberries.]

[shieldsupernanny]

I might. If they haven't told her I'm dead yet. If they have, I should go in person.

[He notices.] Are you alright, Pepper?

[asgardismine]

Oh yes, you definitely deserve one of those.

[shieldsupernanny]

[Sigh. Oh, wait.] I told you so. [There. Now he feels better.]

[sothatswhatitdoes]

[Awkwardtown.

Pfft whatever we're too cool for awkwardtown, 'sup other me.]

... How long has it been since we've vacationed, exactly?

[My memory's a little fuzzy. Must be all the constant work and ass-kicking I do for a living.]

[shieldsupernanny]

[Still not the strangest thing that's happened to him lately, though.]

Depends, when did Stark have his coming-out press conference?

Gonna break the Marvel character chain, hope you don't mind.

[prpl_assistant]

I'm afraid mundanes aren't very kind when it comes to leave, paid or not.

not a problem

[shieldsupernanny]

My handler doesn't seem to mind. She actually thinks I've earned it. Getting killed and all.

[totallyupsized]

[ ...This is a surprise. Not an unpleasant sort, but he's thought -- well. Steve never quite stopped feeling bad for not being able to sign on those cards (another ballgame altogether, but it's always heartening to know that there are people who still believe in him, in the ideals he espouses) when Coulson had so politely requested for it.

Deciding that 'you're alive!' has a sort of undignified ring to it, Steve simply settles for a warm, ]

I hear Hawaii is great this time of year.

[ In other words, you've more than earned that vacation, Agent. Welcome back. ]

[shieldsupernanny]

My handler has a place in mind that's similar. I might like it.

[Fanboy moment coming.] It... it was an honor, Sir.

[itase]

Vacay? Whoa. SHIELD knows what that word means?

[shieldsupernanny]

It does. There are regulations.

[widowing]

[ natasha's surprise doesn't show on her face, not to anyone who doesn't know her, but she has a tell that she's sure phil's aware of by now (her lips pressing together, subtle enough so that it looks at if she's just about to prepare to speak).

she hasn't let herself process this yet. she's seen colleagues and friends die in the line of fire before, it's nothing she's not used to, but this is something different. she can't put her finger on why that is. ]

I'd say you've earned one.

[shieldsupernanny]

That seems to be the consensus. My handler has forms to fill out, but I'm sure it won't be long.

Don't mind the icon. I'm trying not to give him a real journal, so...

[character_box]

[Shit. Shit fuck damn. Hey, Phil. You're looking remarkably not dead.]

Bahamas are nice. Sun, sand, surf... Hey, Coulson, have you ever surfed? I'm trying to imagine you in not-a-suit, but I can't say it's really working.

You could, like, bill the ticket to Stark Industries. Or something.

[shieldsupernanny]

Actually I was telling Pepper earlier that I enjoy fishing, Mr. Stark.
