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.

"My will and genius have served me well. In fact, they got a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent into bed with me, so I'm gonna keep puttin' my faith in 'em until they fail me." Jason teases.

"Oh, before you say it, my ribs helped, too." he grins as she takes his hand. He liked the idea of being more than friends with Sammy; he just hoped that between her issues and his family, that they'd actually have a chance to work things out.

"Hey, good idea. If you set the time and place, I'll know when you're available and bring you coffee-flavored candy. Maybe even some special coffee to keep you awake for those times." he says.

	He managed so well to make her feel spoiled with attention. She was getting used to it. "I won't turn away coffee, but I'd really like the company. Is an hour a day too much, do you think?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Jason shakes his head. "It's not too much."

He doesn't feel it's enough, personally, but he will take whatever he can get. They were doing this on her time and within her comfort-level. He would need to make the most of that hour whenever he had it.

"So, for that hour, do you want to play a board game or something? I'd like to see how many guns you spell out in Scrabble, for instance. I've been curious since the idea came to mind a couple of days ago." he grins.

"Or Battleship. I don't think you can sink my battleship." he taunts.

	"I can spell them all in Scrabble tiles," she said loftily. "But I hardly see how you'll be able to play when I'm forced to handcuff you to get you out of your lab long enough for a proper game." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-07 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Heh. You brought up handcuffs before I did." Jason says. "And I will leave my lab for a proper game if you give me the time and place." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She laughed a little. "I was thinking about an hour or so every day when possible to catch up, have coffee or dessert, and you've turned it into a regularly scheduled date. Your brain is tricky, sir, very tricky. I like guys who use their brains." She squeezed his fingers laced between hers. "I'm killer at Battleship. Even when I don't cheat."

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-07 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, you're a tricky lady and I've got to be tricky in response!" he laughs. "Besides, getting you to go on real dates with me might be tough, so we'll take 'em where we can get 'em." Jason grins. He pulls her hand up to his lips and kisses her fingers, keeping his eyes on the road. "I like the way your hand feels in mine." he says quietly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-07 09:15 pm UTC (link)
	Warmth spread through her. He might even feel it in their joined hands. "I like it too." She was silent for a moment. "I like the way you say it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-07 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	Jason continued kissing her fingers, noticing the warmth and suppressing a smile. "The way I say...what?" he asks, his voice of Southern drawl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-08 12:04 am UTC (link)
	"I don't know that your ego needs feeding." She smiled at him and turned her head to look out of the passenger window. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-08 03:26 am UTC (link)
	"Who said anythin' about my ego? I wanna know so I can keep sayin' it and make your skin get all warm." Jason says. "Don't tempt me to pull this thing over and kiss all the way up your arm until you tell me. I will do this, Sammy Fury." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-08 03:40 am UTC (link)
	"Tempting, very tempting." Sammy looked back at him to find him smiling. He had a good smile. It was genuine and warm. "You really don't know? You say them so effortlessly and while the words are out there, I feel special." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-08 05:02 am UTC (link)
	"Do you mean when I talk about how your hand feels in mine...or how I call your baby? Or Gorgeous?" he asks, watching the road ahead. "I like knowin' what your thinkin', but I also like the surprises you come up with." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-08 05:21 am UTC (link)
	"That's my middle name, Surprise." She pulled his hand to her lap and folded both of hers around it. "I'm looking forward to the next few months of 'baby' and 'Gorgeous'." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-08 02:18 pm UTC (link)
	"You better be lookin' forward to it. You're goin' to hear a lot of it." Jason says, enjoying the feel of her hands around his. She made the simplest of touches feel like a treasure. "When we get back, we should actually try to watch a movie together instead of fallin' asleep on it." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-08 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	"It'll never happen. I haven't managed to finish a movie since I started college. If I'm not studying through it, I fall asleep before it's over," she said. "But I'm willing to give it a try. There's no downside. If I can't stay awake, I'll still have a comfy pillow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-09 04:15 am UTC (link)
	"We're gonna have to fix that, the movie bit. I mean, I think I know a secret to help you with that, but I'll keep my magic ready for a time such as it is necessary." Jason grins. "Besides, now that my ribs are better, I can find other ways to keep you from fallin' asleep. Real annoyin' ones, like kissin' your nose or somethin'." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-09 05:00 am UTC (link)
	"I hear the secret is drinking less coffee and making time to sleep more." The idea of 'or somethin' made her intensely curious what his genius brain could plot, and a very real concern that it would completely take her in. Maybe a guy like Walker would have been safer, but she'd have been bored. Brains with a side of honeyed accent seemed again to be her type. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-10 02:07 am UTC (link)
	"Yep, that is one way to do it, Gorgeous. But since we know that gettin' you to give up coffee is like askin' anyone to stop breathin', we'll just have to come up with an alternate solution, won't we?" he asks. "Though, you are very cute when you sleep...and aren't kickin' or hoggin' the pillows." he adds. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-10 02:44 am UTC (link)
	"I don't kick!" Her indignant tone of voice didn't translate to a harsh grip on his hand. If anything, it softened as she slowly ran her fingertips over the calluses on his palm. "Pillows are only hogged when someone is taking them. There's a reason my bed has four of them. So I don't have to fight my dreams to keep one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-10 02:52 am UTC (link)
	"The bruise on my leg says different, darlin'. I think you were havin' a dream about beatin' up Walker or somethin'." he laughs. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2010-11-10 03:47 am UTC (link)
	"Then maybe you were taking liberties and I naturally protected myself." She grinned. "Teach you to muscle in on my pillow swiping." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh, I was a perfect gentleman all night, Miss Fury. I do not have proof of this, but I was." Jason assures her.

"And it's not muscling in if they're my pillows, but fret not. When next we share a bed, I shall have six pillows. Five for you and one for me. Then we shall see if you and Manifest Pillow Destiny conquer the bed from sheet to silken sheet." Jason promises.

	"I have no doubt that you were," Sammy assured him. "After all, your grandma was right across the hall." "What's more likely is that you'll be working and I'll fall asleep waiting for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thisismyweapon 2010-11-10 05:42 am UTC (link)
	"Would you really wait for me to come to bed?" he asks, a little surprised. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
