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.

	"I wouldn't bet the farm on it," she said. She didn't look at him, but she knew his eyes were on hers. "I can be incredibly stubborn. Alice can tell you stories, so don't ask her. You'll give in first." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Note to self: Ask Alice Dugan how stubborn Sammy is. Probably too stubborn, but will get confirmation of this." Jason drawls into his phone, recording the note. "Oh, you're not winnin' any farms, Fury. Good try, though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I wish I could believe that," Sammy said, "because I'm not the pigtails and gingham kind of girl, but I know that when it comes to stubborn and cheating only to win, you don't have a chance." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Your overconfidence shall be your undoing Sammy-Wan Kenobi." Jason says, imitating a Jedi Master. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"At least I'm not in the gold metal bikini," she said loftily. "And the coffee is wearing off. We need to refuel my caffeine tank and there's a place that looks like they've heard of a coffee pot." She turned off the highway into the parking lot of a diner not unlike the one they stopped at on the way down. "We'll continue our witty repartee afterward." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-10-26 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Yet. You're not in the gold metal bikini /yet/." Jason corrects. "But you get yourself some more coffee so that we can continue this debate, Sammy-Wan." Jason says, suddenly considering the idea of Sammy in a Jedi robe. He files this away as a "long-term project". (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy was oblivious to any sort of long-term projects on Jason's part. "If you want to steer, now's your chance, Chewy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jason takes the driver's seat, allowing Sammy a chance to relax and enjoy her coffee. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy returned with her coffee and a bottle of peach tea for her driver. "Next time we make this trip, if we ever make this trip again, I'm renting an RV and making coffee as we go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-10-28 12:38 am UTC (link)
	"We should do this trip again. Same time next year, gorgeous." Jason says, accepting the peach tea. "And we should do it on a Tuesday." he grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"This time next year, we could be in the Outback, or the Paris catacombs, or fighting at the top of Mount Fuji. What do you think, a team cookout in Costa Rica between fights?" Sammy closed her eyes and leaned back in the seat, smiling. She held the cup in both hands. "What we need is a team RV that converts to a rolling tank. We'll all probably kill each other being cooped up in a tight place, but we can wreck havoc on the countryside while we do it."

"Ooh, I hear Costa Rica is a nice this time of year. I'm pencilin' in it in, Fearless Leader." Jason says as they roll along.

"An RV that converts into a tank? I've never thought of that, but it has merit. I may have to work up some designs and show you." Jason says.

"But I don't think I'll want to kill you in close quarters, Sammy. Just so you know." Jason says, driving along.

	She laughed. He just rolled with it, no matter what foolish notion she put out there. "I'd kill Walker if we were all cooped up in an RV. He can't help being what he is, and I can't help wishing for a time machine that would send him back to a world that he'd feel comfortable in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jason chuckles. "The Star-Spangled Ladies' Man certainly knows how to push your buttons. I actually thought there was something going on with you and him when I first arrived." Jason admits. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Sammy was about to take a drink of her coffee when Jason came out with that gem. Thank god she hadn't taken that drink; it would have been all over the windshield.

"Oh no. No. No way. Never happen." She carefully set the cup back in the holder to avoid accidents. "I respect Walker. He has amazing skills and he's good at his job. If he wasn't sure that I could mess him up in a bad way, he'd never take orders from me without making it clear he didn't like having to listen to a mere woman."

	"You're cute when you get all flustered." Jason says, smiling at Sammy. "He seems all right, though. I find it funny that he calls me 'kid' when I'm two days older than him. I'm told I look younger than I am." Jason says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-10-30 03:40 am UTC (link)
	"I am not flustered. I'm horrified. There is a difference," she told him. "Walker joined SHIELD as early as he was allowed. He's an experienced agent, and you do look younger. If I hadn't read your file, I wouldn't guess you're older than I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, I'm twenty-one with three years' experience." Jason says. "I don't look all that young." "How's the coffee? Are you ready to get back to the your espresso machine?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You have a baby face," Sammy insisted. "It must be your grandma's cooking."

"The coffee is passable, but I want my espresso machine. It understands me. It knows that when I push the push and head in for a shower, I'll expect a caffeine shot when I get back. The red 'ON' light keep me company in the middle of the night. Don't think I didn't notice that you slept with your phone under your pillow."

	"Oh, did the phone keep you up at all? It's been a habit of mine for a long time." he says. Sammy sleeping in his bed topped the list of "memorable moments" from this trip, along with waking up next to her. "So, any idea of what's on tap when we get back?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I only noticed because I tried to take your pillow in my sleep and I woke up when I touched it. Because it was an odd shape. Sometimes I sleep with the Glock under my pillow." Not that it should be a surprise. It was a habit she had no reason to shake.

"No idea yet. As far as I know, we're getting you into training and going from there. And it could blow up when we get back on the helicarrier and we don't see our pillows for a week straight."

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-01 12:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, that will teach you to take my pillows, won't it?" Jason chuckles. "I'm ready for anything when we get back. I just hope I get to the time to do the gear upgrades I told you about so that we can field test them and get the bugs worked out ASAP." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Remember what I told you before you signed on," she reminded him. "You could be working on the fly and your lab will be whatever you carried with you. Field testing will be a luxury. But with any luck, we'll have you back in your lab very soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-01 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh, I haven't forgotten, Sammy." Jason drawled. "I just prefer not blowin' us up with any of my creations. The lab but shouldn't be an issue with the storage cases we picked up. I just wanna see the look on Walker's face regardin' the new shield." Jason says, his Mad Scientist grin in full swing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He'll think it's Christmas. I do every time I get something new and amazing." She thought about those cases. She'd seen pocket dimensions in use, but the cases seemed like magic. "Are you able to make more of those?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
