Checking on the home team
Commander Fontaine, Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., made the rounds when the special ops team came back in. After their last disastrous outing, she wanted to make sure they were still in one cohesive piece. The reports had been favorable.

She hadn't met the newest member yet, though she knew the contents of his file. She'd been the one to have it sent to Sammy for consideration. Her little gun nut, and Walker and Dugan, could always use someone with the ability to build a better gun.

Sammy's report had been terse but informative. The others' a little more informative. Landon was next on her list.

Sammy waited a beat before answering. It was already becoming a joke between them. "Coffee."

"Fury, you are aware that food comes in other flavors, right?" he jokes, shaking his head.

"I seriously think I need to find out if there are traces of blood in your coffee stream." he says.

"I'm aware, but I don't let it get me down," she teased right back. "My favorite ice cream is the one I pick when I look in the freezer. Which way am I going?"

"Go up two more streets, then make a right at the light. It's a Neighborhood Market instead of a Super Wal-Mart, but they're open all night." Tech says.

"I love the toppings you can put on ice cream. The ice cream itself is incidental." he says.

She followed directions, proving that at least when in pursuit of dessert she could, and slid into a parking spot. "If the ice cream is incidental, why bother with it? Why not just mound the whipped cream, sprinkles, chocolate and butterscotch syrups and chopped nuts, and forget the ice cream?"

"Because Gran would kill me long before diabetes did." he answers simply.

"However,you make a good case for leaving out ice cream. But I don't think all of that would go so great without ice cream. I'd have to find something else to put it on." Tech says, considering just that.

"Everything in moderation, Tech. Except my coffee, so don't go there," she warned. Whipped cream and a Southern accent were two things she shouldn't be thinking about right now. Her adrenaline from the bar tussle hadn't worn off enough yet. "You could put it on pudding, or Jello. You want to sit tight and I'll go in?"

"Come now, beautiful. Ah wouldn't dream of tellin' yah t'limit yourself on coffee. I like not gettin' shot." he grins, reaching out to pat Fury's hand.

"Now, you run on in and Ah'll wait right here for yah." he says, leaning back in the seat. The idea of watching her walk away appeals to him greatly right now. So do a few other things regarding Fury and movement, but he was trying to keep those thoughts in moderation, too.

"Do you want anything while I'm in there?" she asked, amused. No one on the team would believe that this was their tech specialist out of the lab.

She had to get him out of the lab more often.

"Yes, actually. A six-pack of Vanilla Creme Soda. Amazing stuff, that." Tech smiles.

"Oh, and some whipped cream and cherries, for the ice cream, please and thank yah."

Sammy was no heathen. The ice cream would be chocolate chocolate chunk (she didn't find the coffee ice cream). She located the soda, which sounded perfectly disgusting to her, and the whipped cream and cherries as well as chocolate syrup and sprinkles.

She was out of the market in twenty minutes and climbing back into the SUV with their goodies.

Tech, meanwhile, was napping while she was in the store. Good.dreams abounded, mostly, until he dreamed that Jake asked.him to choose between his family and S.H.I.E.L.D. He was just about to answer when Fury got back in. Coming awake again, Tech smiles.

"You are a goddess, Fury. Ah thank you." Tech grins, smiling over the soda.

"I'll remember that when I'm busting your ass in the gym and you're complaining how mean I am," she said cheerfully. "You might not make it through dessert. Twenty minutes and you were sleeping."

"Hey now, Ah was just restin' my eyes. Ah'm ready for ice cream." Tech assures her.

"And Ah'll make sure to keep tonight in mind when you're kickin' mah ass in trainin'. Just be gentle with me; it'll be mah first time." he quips.

"It'll be for your own good," she said in her best virtuous voice. "Like taking your vitamins. I won't promise to be gentle, but I will quite thoroughly teach you everything I know that isn't classified."

"Ah appreciate you takin' an interest in me, Fury. Lord knows yah didn't have to." he says.

"Ah'll do mah best tag learn everythin' yah show me, Fury. Ah want to contribute to the team and organization to the best of mah ability." he says.

"You're going to be fine, Tech. You have a lot to offer S.H.I.E.L.D. and you're going to get the chance to do it. No matter what your brother thinks."

That was an odd comment to make just now, but Tech didn't dwell on it. He simply relaxes in his seat and watches the night pass by as they drive.

"Jake has no love for S.H.I.E.L.D. especially since you guys busted him. He wasn't wild about the idea when I pitched it to him, but he wasn't in a position to object, either." Tech tells her.

"He's not in much of a position to demand anything for a very long time. I've seen it before. He doesn't seem to have much capacity for thinking outside him or his own little world where he's the star and everyone else are playing bit parts. The world is bigger and to survive you have to think on those terms."

"I wish he'd made better choices, especially with the baby on the way." Tech says. "I'd lose my mind if I was in jail now and I had a kid comin'."

"The hope is that you'l think about what you're doing before comes to that."

Could she sound any more like Uncle Steve? "Sorry, that was out of line. My godfather likes to lecture his son, godchildren, and any other kid nearby about doing the right thing because your actions will always affect other people."

"Ah know you meant well, so no offense taken. Mah grandfather was much the same way. He always drilled into us that it was important for a man to take care of his responsibilities and his family." Tech says.

"He'd roll in his grave if he could see what's become of Jake and me. He was always able to keep Jake in line." Tech says.

"I think you'll surprise yourself."

She half expected to see his grandmother waiting at the door. Evelyn clearly worried about her grandsome, and Sammy had heard how gossipy small towns were. If no one called tonight, she'd surely hear about the bar incident in the morning.
