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.

"Someone get this woman a cup of coffee, stat!" he says, grabbing a mug and filling it with hot coffee. He passes Fury the mug and some sugar and cream, since he doesn't know what she takes in her coffee.

He considers a jest that involves telling her that the coffee is really decaf, but Gran is armed with a spatuala and he can't see Fury's gun. In her non-caffeinated state, he might actually shoot him and Gran would tell him it was his own fault before patching him up.

So he goes with a simple "Good morning, Fury. Today, we're going learn about the other four food groups. Would you like to try bacon, eggs and waffles today?" he teases.

	Evelyn looks over her shoulder at Tech. "Jason, do not tease that poor girl. Get yourself a mug for your tea so that you two can eat. Once I'm done, I have to go get ready for this morning's meeting." she says. "Good Morning, Sam. Did you sleep all right? Are you hungry?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's right, don't tease the poor girl," Sammy said with a smirk. She took the mug and spent a moment doctoring it with one eye open. "I know what the four food groups are. Kona, Columbian, Arabica, and French Roast." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We have far, far too much work to do on you, Fury. Really, there's more to life than coffee." he says.

"One day, some enterprising terrorist is going to learn how to really cripple the world: they will steal every bit of coffee on the planet and threaten to send it to the Negative Zone." Tech says.

"Governments will collapse and the world will tremble." Tech says.

"Please excuse my grandson, Agent Fury. I know you're supposed to apprehend terrorists, but he's had that idea for twelve years and he still thinks that anyone with a lick of sense wouldn't shoot him for messing with their coffee." Gran says.

"He also thinks that the world will pay to get their coffee back when they have S.H.I.E.L.D. to come in and beat said terrorist senseless." she chuckles.

	"Forget S.H.I.E.L.D., I'll go in alone and save the world. I just need to find the head coffee thief and show him the error of his ways." Sammy took a fortifying sip. "By the way, Mrs. Landon, breakfast smells absolutely wonderful. I'll change and be right down. My apologies for showing up in my pajamas." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Sam, don't be silly. You're should be relaxing and walking around in pajamas is part of that. I think I'd have been worried to /not/ in your pajamas. You are a guest and you don't have to be completely together all the time." Evelyn says.

"We know you're human and we like that way." she smiles, serving up the bacon, eggs and waffles on both plates.

"Now, you two eat while I finish getting ready and Jason, don't start in on the coffee again, please. If you do, I do not promise to help you when Sam takes offense." Evelyn laughs and leaves the room.

	"It was a good plan." Tech mumbles. "Would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for that blasted S.H.I.E.L.D. agent." He looks away, trying to hide a smile before pouring himself some tea. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: The next morning... thisismyweapon 2010-09-03 08:21 am UTC (link)
	"No, she's really serious. It's early, Fury. You can stay in your pajamas." Tech says, chuckling at her. "If it was four in the afternoon, that would be something else, but it's early, so there's no shame in it." he grins.

	Tech is about to respond when he sees Fury dunk the bacon in her coffee. For a moment, he's so shocked he can't even form words. Then... "Oh, no she didn't. I have now seen everything." Tech says, shaking his head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe here, where conjugating verbs is in question," she teased, grinning. "Have you never had coffee flavored bacon? It's a good thing you joined SHIELD when you did. There's a whole world out there, and some of them like coffee flavored bacon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, we might not always conjugate our verbs correctly, but we don't engage in deviant behaviors such as....coffee-spiking bacon!" Tech says, assuming the culinary moral high ground. He pauses for a moment. "How does it taste?" he asks curiously. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: The next morning... sammyfury 2010-09-03 06:03 pm UTC (link)

Tech's expression is skeptical, but he does as requested and takes a piece of bacon and dips into Fury's coffee, then pops it into his mouth.

The taste is new, strange, but not revolting. His head nods in approval. He doesn't think he'll be eating it often, but he consent to trying more often than once a blue moon.

"All right...not bad." he concedes, chuckling at the fact that only a coffee-addict could come up with such a thing.

	"See, it didn't kill you." With soothing caffeine muscling its way into her bloodstream, Sammy was able to fully appreciate the breakfast Mrs. Landon prepared. "Oh, those are homemade waffles," she said with all due reverence, and immediately forked one onto a plate. "How did you sleep?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: The next morning... thisismyweapon 2010-09-03 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh, I slept great. Just fine." Tech says, a bit to quickly. He also takes a waffle to enjoy. "Yes, Gran's waffles will give even the most downtrodden soul a reason to rethink life." Tech grins. "How did you sleep?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I did. I just...didn't fall asleep afterward, is all." he told her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Did you get any sleep at all? You'll take longer to heal if you don't. Don't make me shock your grandmother by holding down a chair in your room to make sure you rest.." Waffles, butter, maple syrup; one bite and she closed her eyes in bliss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"An hour or two. I started getting some ideas and I didn't want to lose them. I feel fine, Fury." he smiles. He takes another bite of waffle and eggs and smiles. "This is good stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There's a cafe..." she stopped speaking to take another bite, sighing in pleasure as she did. She took a sip of coffee. "A cafe off Madison nearly the park that does sour cream pancakes that are pretty wonderful, but not likes these. Does she ship care packages? I would pay for these." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
