004 ♦ Sharon Carter ♦ [video]

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

If anyone needs anything from outside your homes, if you don't feel safe going out on your own, please let me know and I'll see what I can do about getting it to you. If you feel like being an idiot and going outside, at least don't get hurt. [Looking at you, Kobra.] If you insist on getting hurt, get to a safe place if you can and call for help as soon as you can. I know it's common sense, but you'd be surprised how some people need it spelled out. [KOBRA.]



Private to Logan
Think you can help me get Banner to the box?

Private to Natasha
Want to help me get Banner to the box? [And then, in Thai] Also, Winter Soldier.

Private to Coulson
We need to talk. Soon.

Private to Daneel
When do you want to go over the answers for your quiz? Is the kid from the church okay?

Private to Mina
Haven't talked in a while. Figured I'd touch base. How're you holding up?

[Still Private]

Kobra is quite safe now. And yes, I would appreciate the chance to go over the questionnaire you gave me, as soon as you're able to.set aside the time. Is there a safe place you had in mind?

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

Action?

[True to her word, Sharon arrives shortly thereafter, knocking on the door and glancing warily at some dogs nearby. Her knife is bloody, but other than that and a few loose strands from her ponytail, she seems fine. Not necessarily cheerful, but not not cheerful, if it made any sense.]

[thezerothlaw]

[He's alarmed by the blood when he answers the door, to say the least, but he hadn't been thrilled about having her venture out to see him in the first place.]

You're not hurt? None of this blood is yours?

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

Nope. [She moves inside and closes the door behind her, locking it securely before relaxing.]

How're you holding up?

Have any paper towels I can use?

[primogen_vampirate]

[Mina actually sounds very cheerful, answering in audio because "what is a text?"]

Doing well. Banner and I think we know how to open the box.

Well, we have a theory, anyway.

An idea. We have an idea! But a good one!

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

[Her lips twitch at the sound of Mina's voice. It's good to hear that someone is apparently good mood.]

I offered earlier to get him to the box. Now I'm trying to find some people who can help me keep him safe while he's working. Somehow, I don't think you'll need as much protection, but would you want to join us anyway?

[primogen_vampirate]

Provided it's an evening expedition, I can think of nothing I'd rather do.

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

I'd hate to go on an expedition against murderous animals when I can see them clearly, so yes, it would likely be an evening expedition.

How's the vampire thing going?

[onteamdyson]

So now you're dictating whether or not we can get hurt!? You don't run our lives, evil nemesis! We can get hurt and not call for help if we want to!

[Okay, the fear and respect Kenzi feels for Sharon is being overcome by the hilarity that is this nemesis thing and the intense boredom of not really going outside all that much.]

Oh look! I'm going to pick up this piece of paper! I'm gonna get a paper cut! And there's nothing you can do about it! Common sense don't live here no more, Agent!

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

[Nemesis? Again?]

[Oh.]

[Oh Jesus fuck.]

I'm glad you and Kobra are getting along so well.

Remember to wash the cut out with saltwater.

[onteamdyson]

[And you thought they were bad on their own...

Kenzi grins.]

You'll never be able to defeat us, just fyi. We're getting capes. Also fyi, I'm going to remember to NOT wash it out with saltwater and later I might even stub my toe somewhere dangerous!

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

Capes.

[Sharon sighs.]

Professional advice? Since, if you're going to do this, you ought to do it right. Don't wear capes. Uniforms, sure, but capes are too easy to use against people. You can get away with it if you're the Sentry, but for people who can't harvest the power of the universe, brightly-colored pajamas usually work just fine.

[And yeah, she's going to let Kenzi stub her toe. Maybe it'll keep Kenzi house-bound and out of trouble for a while.]

[theshield_agent]

[ private ]

I'm all yours. When and where?



((ooc: Just a reminder, but they don't have texting.))

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

Two hours. Your place will be fine.

((ooc: &@#$%. Fixing!))

[theshield_agent]

Come on by. Give a yell if you need wolf-related backup.


((♥))

[Five minutes before the two-hour deadline, there's a knock at his door. With Clint providing cover, she hadn't even needed to sully her knife, and she's inordinately pleased not to have to clean it again. She continues holding it, though, as she scans the area and waits for the door to open.]

[beenunmade]

Well, 'm on the roof if anyone gets pinned down. Or have easy access to the roof. A friend decided to drop in a couple minutes ago so 'm giving the little fella some room to get bored enough to fuckin' leave. [ Otherwise he already has his quiver strapped to his back, pinging the stranglers and ones that get too close to occupied buildings. ]

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

I hope you mean one of the Humane Society castoffs or a real friend, not Logan.

I got some with my knife. They seem like a waste of bullets.

[beenunmade]

One of those...saber-cat...things. [ Clint didn't stay to take a look at it. ]

I can just collect my arrows, so 'm not a terrible loss. Jus' tell me what you want me to do. Coulson has been givin' me a lack of orders. It's kinda depressing.

[plaidsamurai]

[Keeping it Private]

[The video finally crackles through, there's a lot of movement in the background, though the large shady shapes can't clearly be identified. Logan looks a little bit rougher and more unkempt than usual and is that... blood on his face? Maybe.]

What? Why do you want Banner by the box? Where is he now?

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

He and Mina think they might have found a clue about the box, but they have to get to the box. I'd like you and Natasha to help me cover them while they work. It has to be at night.

Should I hold off with the plans until you take a bath?

[plaidsamurai]

[He's definitely distracted by the pacing shadows around him, and then a big black nose snuffles into the view of the video, taking up the whole screen before disappearing.]

Cover? Cover for what?

[owe-him-a-debt.livejournal.com]

[Private]

[Inset obligatory alternate language here. Also, totally ignoring the part about Banner for the moment. >|]

I know. Has he done something?

[agentx13.livejournal.com]

[And lots of obligatory language switching forever.]

Just said hi and nearly scared the shit out of me. Were you planning on mentioning he was here?

[As - let's face it - upset as Sharon is that Natasha hadn't told her Bucky was here, she's almost can't blame her. Natasha's mind doesn't work like other people's. Natasha's entire life is built on secrets. It's just... this secret. This secret shouldn't have been kept from her. They're supposed to be a team.]

This isn't just Bucky, is it, Natasha. It's Winter Soldier.

[The goddamn Winter Soldier, Natasha. And you didn't think to mention that the guy who had killed people and kidnapped her and blown up her ex-boyfriend was here. And she and Natasha are supposed to be a team.]

[owe-him-a-debt.livejournal.com]

[And continued obligatory language changes.]

Not until I'd had a chance to talk to him, face to face. [Which was proving to be more difficult than she's willing to admit.]

It is Winter Soldier. [She didn't, because she... didn't seem to think it was necessary, yet.]
