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.

"It helped that Stevie Ray wasn't expecting me to do anything. He was waiting for Jason to move and like most big men, he didn't expect it come from me."

Mmmm...bacon. She didn't dip her bacon in her coffee like she had with Jason the last two mornings. She loved the flavor, but that had mainly been to get a reaction out of him.

"Jason...well, he surprises me a lot. In a good way. We're supposed to leave today."

"Well, he and Jake are good people. They take care of the people they love and they don't let anyone keep them from doin' that, which I admire." Jessica says, making herself a plate.

"Aside from that, they love each other. Most brothers are either rivals or just drinkin' buddies...but Jake and Jason were always thick as thieves, since they were all the family they had. I know that Gran took care of them, but...they had to get used to her and their grandfather, too." she says, sitting down to eat.

"I only hope my little baby ends up with a brother he can count on like that." Jess says.

	"I'm sure he will." Sammy could not comment on Jacob Landon. She still thought he needed to be put down. "I know brothers and sisters like that. They will tease and fight between themselves, but outsiders get a solid front." She wondered if either Jason or Evelyn talked to her about coming to New York for awhile. Sammy wouldn't bring up the subject. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I grew up an only child, so I don't know what that's like. Do you have any siblings, Sam?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I grew up an only child, too. I have a friend who was born just a couple of weeks ahead of me, and I'd like to think we're as close as sisters. She gets first approval on all my boyfriends." All one of them. "Our families have been close for decades." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Jessica smiles at the information on boyfriends, though she hopes that this girl isn't leading Jason on. Gran thinks Jason and Sammy would be wonderful together, but Jessica's a little doubtful. FBI agents didn't get involved with criminals unless they were working on a case.

She'd seen that on Law & Order. Or was it CSI? It didn't matter.

"Jason mentioned the other day that you're lookin' to, uh, bring me into custody as well. I need to ask some questions about that." she says.

	"Protective custody," Sammy corrected her with a smile. "Mrs. Landon is worried after what happened at the house, they might come back and she doesn't want you or the baby under stress. I arranged for a safe house in New York near Jason so you wouldn't be alone. Jason could stay with you when he's not on duty. It's still up to you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well...I don't wanna do anything that would make it hard for Jason to do his job, so I'll go willingly. I promised Jake that much. I also promised them both that I'd take care of Gran. Is she comin' with us?" Jess asks, eating a bit of bacon and egg. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I asked her to go with you and she told me no. Maybe you should talk to her. The apartment is in the Village, near a park, and there is an elevator so you won't have to deal with stairs. Fully furnished. All you need are groceries." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I can try, but I don't know that I'll have any more luck with her than Jason. She's a stubborn woman, Gran is." Jess says. "But she can't stay here all alone."

"But you've got to make sure you give Jason a lot of work to do, or he'll hover all over us until we beg you to let us go come home. He's a worry wart that way. Be warned, in case you get sick or somethin'." she laughs.

	"I hardly ever get sick, but I'll keep that in mind. Don't worry, I can make sure that he has plenty to do." Sammy hoped she said that without a trace of anything that could be misconstrued. Jason's family was all too quick to jump to ideas of what they thought was going on. Hypocrite. Where did you sleep last night? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Jessica doesn't seem to pick up on anything could have a double meaning.

"Okay, good. I mean, Jason's a sweet boy and everything, but he can get a little controlling when people around him get injured. But let /him/ get hurt and see how much he tries to play it off like he's A-OK and refuse help." Jess says, shaking her head.

"Does he answer your questions with questions, too?" she asks.

	"He tries, but I bring him back to the issue at hand. Unless we're in the field, it doesn't bother me. So far he hasn't given me too much trouble about his injuries." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, he came over and did all that work at my house while trying to hide to busted up ribs from me. When I finally found out, I about cursed him out. Instead, I just sent him back home." Jessica says. "He's selfless to a fault, Jason is. I just hope he learns to be a little more selfish someday." she muses. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-10-13 12:36 am UTC (link)
	"A little selfishness is not a bad thing," Sammy said with a nod. "He went over to do the work without telling me so I wouldn't stop him. I'm only along for the ride to keep him from overdoing it and injuring himself again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_citizen 2010-10-13 12:40 am UTC (link)
	"He talked about you a bit when he was at my house. All good, of course. He seems to really respect you and he's glad for the chance to change his life." Jessica says. She pauses for a long moment before speaking again. "You'll take care of him, right?" she asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-10-13 01:28 am UTC (link)
	A third person wanting her to take care of Jason. Sammy was beginning to wonder if they actually knew the same person she did. "I'll take care of him," she promised Jessica. "As much as he'll let me, and then I'll pull seniority." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jessica chuckles. "You may have to. Jake had to all the time to make him follow orders." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jason comes into the kitchen yawning and rubbing his eyes, before focusing on the two women in front of him. "Hello, ladies. You two are up early." he observes. "Is there more food, Jess?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_citizen 2010-10-13 01:54 am UTC (link)
	"Of course not, Jason. I made enough for me, Sammy and Gran. You're gonna have to go to the woods and forage." she says. Tech just looks at her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-10-13 02:05 am UTC (link)
	Sammy turned a bland smile in his direction though her eyes gleamed in suppressed laughter. "Lot of woods out there. Bet the foraging is good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Again with the two-against-one. You better be takin' it easy, Jess, or I swear I will roll you out to the car and take you home, then make Legion sit with you until it's time to for Hunter to show up." Jason says, going to the pan to procure breakfast. "And I kid you not, I'll have him drive you to the hospital, too." Jason says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy hid a wince behind her cup. Shrieking Jessica's voice climbed the scale and it wasn't as melodic as Jason's drawl. "Legion is a personal assistant now?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"...He can be reprogrammed." Jason says, his eyes a little shifty. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
