voicemail right after fratvengers starts burning ; encrypt'd oneeyedeagle May 18 2011, 20:45:14 UTC
Still feel obliged to your buddies now?

[He might be up to his eyepatch in unadulterated rage, but that's just a hunch.]

They are my employers, not my friends. Do not forget why I began working with them in the beginning.

Call me crazy, but I think murder and arson, especially when they've been trying to keep us from doing just that, constitutes your contract being voided.

[He is trying so, so hard to keep his voice low and even. sob Nat please don't make him yell at you.]

[ Pause. ]

If I get close enough, I can rip them apart from the inside. You know that.

Then I suggest you get close enough. They murdered Wasp and destroyed the Avengers frathouse, both without provocation. These guys used to be the local heroes just like us? I. Don't. Care. I wanna shoot my JD and Coke from their eye sockets after this shit.

[He pauses, trying so very hard to take a few breaths and count to ten. When he speaks again he still sounds furious and torn, but. He's quieter now, back to struggling to contemplate everything on his plate.]

...I actually thought maybe they'd gotten you and killed or tortured you, or sent you somewhere. Just to try and make it a message to the rest of SHIELD.

You know better than to worry about me, Nicholas. I would never have let them take me.

[ Pause. ]

Is the team assembled?

Would we run the risk of getting blown up, burned, or strangled around the Baxter Building?

Not to my knowledge.
