Recruiting again
While it was hard not to dwell on exactly why she was looking for a new team member, Sammy wasn't about to push it off onto anybody else. The selection would be hers. She took a long look at the team left and considered what advantage they could use the next time a mission blew up in their faces. Then she reviewed available personnel files of agents and conditional agents with the skills or abilities that fell into her particular expectations, and requested that Jason Landon's handler bring him to the directorate for a meeting.

She arrived early. When Jason arrived he would see a pale faced woman with an inhumanly large mug of coffee in front of her, tapping on a PDA. Her sidearm was non-standard issue. A large bulging manila envelope sat in the middle of the conference table.

"I like that term, genetic quirk. I'll use it and credit you." he says.

"I will learn as much as I can as fast as I can, and I won't slow down the group. I'll be ready when you need me." he confirms. He would have to get into better shape and learn to fight, something Jake had been trying to teach him for years. Hopefully, the lessons would stick this time.

"I could probably work off any schematics I see, but my ability does a lot of the work for me. If I can see a machine of any kind in action, I can tell you everything it does or could possibly do. I can also neutralize it or rebuild it once I've seen it work." he tells her.

She nodded. "It's still your decision to join this particular team. I'll understand if you want to think about it and meet the others first. It will not count against you if you decide against it."

"I would be most interested in meeting your team, Fury. Perhaps by learning of them, I can determine if my skills will be of value to all. They can also know something of me and see if they are willing to accept me into your ranks." he says.

He hands her weapon back to her. "I'll need to make the adjustments to your weapon, but I can handle that quickly." he says.

"May I inquire as to your favorite day of the week?"

The question took her aback. She expected anything else up to and including salary, her genetic quirk, even if he'd get to have his very own hover car one day, but not this.

It was enough of a surprise to get him a small but genuine smile. "Tuesday."

He smiles back again, this one much brighter.

"You're the first person to give that answer, Fury. Tuesday is a good day." he says.

"Are there any other questions you have for me before we meet the team?" he says.

"I don't have any questions, but I do have some advice. Loosen up. Our rules are different than main S.H.I.E.L.D. We're more informal. We have to be."

She finally picked up her sidearm and ran her fingertips over it. She was so familiar with the weapon that she would be able to feel any slight misalignment. "We recently lost a team member so we may not be at our best. I'll set up a meeting so you can get a look at what you're about to jump into and we'll go from there. All right?"

"I will try to do that. Loosen up, I mean." he says.

"I'm sorry to hear of your teammate's loss. Was it related to work?" he asks.

"Yes." Her tone was matter of fact, but she didn't look up from the coffee mug. "Alice Dugan will contact you shortly. She's our go-to person."

"Alice Dugan." he says, nodding. "Duly noted and logged."

He notices Fury's expression regarding her fallen comrade and assumes that they were friends. Perhaps S.H.I.E.L.D, unlike many government organizations, was a family, where people were people instead of numbers.

"Thank you for meeting with me today, Fury. It is most appreciated."

"I appreciate you hearing me out." She rose and held out her hand.

Tech stands up, nods, and shakes the offered hand.

"I appreciate you speaking plainly with me, Fury. I hope we'll find that we can work well together." he says genuinely.
