Checking In (Sammy)
Tim managed to get a few days off and he headed to New York. Working on Top Secret stuff didn't allow for much social contact with other people not working on the project. A few days off was just what he needed to head to New York and check in on his best friend.

He headed into SHIELD's public offices and straight for where Sammy was at.

	"They should have told you," Tim agreed. "How about I drag you out for some dinner and then we'll tell him. Deal?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I could use a decent meal, and I want to hear about your new project that lets you play in Arizona." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He held out a hand. "Burgers, beer and the little I can tell you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She readily took his hand and suppressed a grimace at the twinge of pain as she stood up. "Between what you can't tell me and what I can't tell you, it promises to be a really quiet meal." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sure we can find things to talk about," he said. An arm went around her waist. He knew she didn't need the support, but it was there if she did want it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-09-28 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	Support took a lot of different forms. Sammy was grateful for Tim's. She would think over what he'd said about Mikel, make her plans, but that was later. Tim was solid and it was comforting to lean against him. "So you're getting a lot of climbing in?" Hey, no one said she couldn't practice her interrogation techniques on him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-09-30 01:26 am UTC (link)
	"Enough," he said. "Hard to climb when I'm working around the clock. It's like that with big projects." Tim kept her close to his side and dropped a kiss on the top of her head when she leaned in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-09-30 01:50 am UTC (link)
	"My big projects tend to be field missions. No free time involved. Where are you climbing? Do you have pictures?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-09-30 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm climbing all over the place and yes, I do have pictures." Tim knew what she was trying to do, but he wasn't going to spill the beans. "Big Nick's or would you rather go someplace else?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-01 02:04 am UTC (link)
	It never hurt to ask for pictures. You could learn a lot from pictures. "Surprise me. I trust you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-05 10:35 pm UTC (link)
	Tim laughed. "Says the girl who has NEVER liked surprises." Tim gave her an affectionate squeeze. "I know just the place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-05 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	"That never included where to have lunch. Everything else, yes." She poked him lightly in the side. "One little misfire because you startled me, and you never let me live down." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-05 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	Tim giggled from the poke in the side. He was very ticklish. "I'm not allowed to let you live anything down. It's in the job description." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-05 11:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Which job description would that be?" She poked him again. "My best friend or my best tormentor?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-05 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	"Aren't they one in the same?" he asked with a smirk. "Are you taking any applications for other positions? I'm always looking to expand my horizons." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-06 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"That's all I can handle. You've spoiled me for other best friends. Where's this mystery lunch spot, anyway?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-06 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	Tim tried not to feel dejected, but it was there. "Feel up for Chelsea Market?" he asked. "It's been awhile since we've been there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-06 06:04 pm UTC (link)
	"That sounds great. I wonder if that gelato place is still open there." She squeezed him around the waist in a half hug, still using his tall form for support. "So, you can't talk about what you're working on, but just nod if I'm right - did SHIELD contract for a new helicarrier?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-06 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	"Maybe," Tim said. She could figure out what question he was answering. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-06 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	So vague, and yet she thought she was right. She didn't need to go snooping for answers about a helicarrier, but Tim being involved only made sense. He was the best and brightest for the project. "Did they get you an apartment out there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-06 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	"More or less," Tim answered. They were in temporary housing near the construction site. Staying anywhere else and the commute would be murder. "If I were to find reasons to visit New York more frequently, would you like to go to dinner with me? Maybe some karaoke?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-06 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	"Of course I'll have dinner with you. Karaoke...I dunno. I'd have to be drunk. Then you'd end up carrying me home because you know what happens when I drink too much." She bumped him. "No visitors on site, huh? If I get clearance, can I sleep on your sofa bed?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-06 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Tim smiled. He knew she wasn't seeing the dinner invite in the same way he did, but it was a start. He wasn't about to give up yet. "It could be fun. You never know." Tim gave her a squeeze. "You know I'd never let you sleep on the sofa bed. You'd sleep in my bed." He would of course have the couch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sammyfury 2013-10-06 11:16 pm UTC (link)
	"You would offer, but I'd have to insist. You're too tall to get a good night's sleep on a sofa." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-10-06 11:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes, but I'd never be able to live with myself if I let you sleep on the couch." Tim was a little old fashioned at times and he blamed it on his grandfather and godfather. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
