No, that's good. You achieved your dreams.

[ He smiles at her, beaming almost. ]

You went for what you wanted and didn't change your mind. I... like that about you.

Seriously? That's-

[ She searches his eyes for a moment, then grins. Of course he isn't like so many of the SHIELD guys who think it's embarrassing they can't beat her in a fight. It's just... weird having coffee with - dating - someone who respects her decision to become an agent. ]

Surprising and nice. Um. Thanks.

[ But now that they're getting into nice things, she feels the need to turn the subject. She isn't accustomed to compliments outside of her performance in the field. ]

They're opening a new nightclub downtown soon. It's supposed to be a jazz club based on the 1940s. [ Such things had come into fashion after Steve came back. And so much of them are probably the exact opposite of what he's used to, poor guy. ]

[ He's about to ask what she means by that, that it's surprising and nice. He doesn't think it's either, she's chasing her dreams just like everyone else does. But she's already moved on before he can think about it, and he's distracted because that's pinging his interests. ]

Would you go with me?

I... never got to go dancing.

[ How scary is it that she already knows him well enough to fob him off so easily? So long as he doesn't trust everyone so implicitly, she supposes it'll be all right. And she'll look out for him somehow, one way or another. ]

I actually brought it up so you would ask Nick Fury. [ She grins sheepishly. ]

Yeah, I'll go. Nick can cry himself to sleep another night.

I don't know, maybe Maria can take him. I feel bad, he never takes a day off. But I don't know if I'd want to lead him in a swing dance.

[ He laughs at the thought ]

[personal profile] agentx13 2013-05-03 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
I hear Fury knows how to swing. And Maria doesn't get out much. I don't know. If you told them something was going to go down in the area, they might be up for it.

If it's all the same for you, I'd rather one of us lead the other in a dance rather than one of them.

I call dibs on Hill.

[ He smiles into his coffee and wisely decides not to do anymore drawings, though caffeine has no effect on him and he could easily drink the place clean. ]

Think we could do Saturday?

[personal profile] agentx13 2013-05-03 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She shoves some hair out of her face. ]

Um. Sure. Saturday sounds good.

[ Not enough time for her to learn what foot goes where, but maybe she can watch some videos and work it out. Just in case. ]
pursuitofcappiness: (so as i was saying)

[personal profile] pursuitofcappiness 2013-05-04 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Does that count as a second date or are we nixing this one?

[ He seems amused when he asks because this is so awkward ]

[personal profile] agentx13 2013-05-06 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Wow. Is she being de-asked-out? Had her latte art been that terrible? ]

Why would we nix this one?

I don't know, I thought maybe... it was a surprise, maybe you'd want a do-over.
agentx13: (Default)

[personal profile] agentx13 2013-05-09 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I... wasn't thinking that at all.

Unless my latte art was so bad we need a do-over.
pursuitofcappiness: (um what repeat that)

[personal profile] pursuitofcappiness 2013-05-10 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
No, of course not. I... Okay, second date, next Saturday.

[ and try not to put your foot in it this time, Rogers. ]

And if you're late because you had to save the world again, I'll find you.
pursuitofcappiness: (looking over right)

[personal profile] pursuitofcappiness 2013-05-11 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't expect any less. I won't be late.

[personal profile] agentx13 2013-05-12 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
You say that now. Things go wrong, though.

Especially since you're you and I'm me.

[ Either one of them could be sent on their last assignment at any time, after all. ]
pursuitofcappiness: (old newsreels)

[personal profile] pursuitofcappiness 2013-05-12 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
We made it today, didn't we? I won't want to make you wait, in any case.
