A SHIELD agent walks into a bar....
Alice had been in London to talk to Del about possibly rejoining the team. Del was a good agent to have around in the field, and though the team worked pretty well together, they could use the extra set of hands. Del had told Alice that she would think on it, and offered to grab dinner with her, but Alice knew that she had quite a bit of work on her plate, so she said she'd take a raincheck.

Alice left Scotland Yard headquarters and made her way to the pub that Del had recommended. She walked up to the bar and sat down, ordering a beer.

	Quinn smiled and gave her a wink. "I like the sound of that, luv. We can have a few more drinks and then head back to my place." Quinn took a quick drink from his glass. "What kind of business are you here for?" he asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Private firm," she said. Sometimes telling people that she just met that she was with SHIELD didn't go over so well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Quinn was about to ask who the bigwig was that she was protecting, but decided there was enough work talk. Talking about work, any work, was generally boring anyway.' "First time to London, luv?" he asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Quinn led her into the kitchen and grabbed two beers from the fridge. "Care for a tour?" he asked as he offered her a bottle. It was some of Casey's stash. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
