002 ✪ [Video -- thoroughly accidental video]

[notmyfirstrodeo]

[Coulson is staring intently at the computer screen. Very intently. In fact, this may be the most serious that he's ever looked -- which is saying something. The man doesn't do much that isn't serious.]

Almost...

[The word is muttered to himself, brow furrowed.] Just about... There!

[And now, seriousness is replaced with absolute triumph. A kid who just got exactly what he asked for from Santa. Fiddling and a sheet prints. It's an order confirmation, straight off of eBay, winning bid. As he holds it up to the light read it's quite visible: Complete series: Captain America trading cards, original printing, near mint condition.

There's a bit of a grin starting on his face as he suddenly realizes he's sharing this. The expression fades entirely, and he pauses.]

...this is research. [And then he hurries to turn the video off.]

I'm sure either way, he'd be ridiculously polite about it.

What card would you get signed?

video -- shhhh what journal fial.

[notmyfirstrodeo]

Undoubtedly. Captain Rogers is a classy guy.

That's a good question. I'm not sure. Tough choice.

I saw nothing.

[wormhole]

Thor and him might end up having the classiest conversation to ever have class at some point.

There's time to think about it.

<3 hooray

[notmyfirstrodeo]

That is a lot of classing.

There is. Time to get a game plan in place.

[wormhole]

They don't even need mustaches and monocles to have that much class.

Do you have a rough draft of the plan at all?

[notmyfirstrodeo]

That is an impressive feat.

Of course. Several. Various stages of blueprints.

[wormhole]

They're impressive people that surpass our abilities to be impressive.

Does one of them determine if he signs your card in a red pen or a blue pen?

[notmyfirstrodeo]

Well summed up.

...how do you know about the red pen contingency?

[wormhole]

You mean you've actually been thinking about that?

[notmyfirstrodeo]

[Just a faaaaint little smile here. Barely there at all. Welcome to Agent Coulson's sense of humor, Jane.]

[wormhole]

[ wait is he--? okay she's laughing ] Oh, you're funny.

[notmyfirstrodeo]

I like to think I have my moments.

[wormhole]

I can see it. You've got some humor in there.
