Set the Record Straight - tag Clint & Jack

It felt strange just walking into the BPRD instead of having to sneak in like last time or being escorted by someone the second time she was there. Hopefully this trip wouldn't end in someone punching someone else but Tasha wasn't holding her breath.

Clint was right. What made Natasha so sure Harkness was telling the truth about SHIELD's  ( Read more... )

Clint had been a part of SHIELD far longer than Tasha. It was one of the reasons on why he wouldn't believe a word they said. The files that is. Oh, it wasn't that he didn't believe her but files... they could be falsified. Someone could be trying to set SHIELD up. Make them look like the bad guys.

He gives her hand a slight squeeze and gives her a smile even as they walk into the BPRD, heading toward Harkness' office. Even as they do he lets his eyes roam over the place. Check out any exits or anything advantage points there was. Though he makes it subtle so no one knows what he's doing.

For now he'll stay quiet and let her do the talking. But only for now.

Jack's office door is open as normal, but he isn't sitting doing paperwork, he is standing sipping coffee deep in thought as he studies a photo on his desk. It is a picture of him with his unit during World War II. He can't remember the mission, but since there is no sign of Steve or Trevor he assumes it is before he met either of them.

The sound of footfalls makes him look up and he puts on a half smile. "Looks like I may be getting some vistor's soon," he tells the picture.

How is Clint smiling at her her like that? Oh yeah, he's trying to keep her calm.

Good luck with that, pal,

She knows what he's doing, and Natasha has already memorized the way out. She's got her 'bracelets' on under her jacket, too.

She doesn't knock stepping into Jack's office without a word. Natasha reaches into her bra, because that's were you keep things you need close to the chest, and pulls out a USB drive of the files Jack mentioned. As if she didn't make a copy before gave the originals back to Rick.

"Explain it." Natasha tosses the drive on Jack's desk before stepping back to stand beside Clint. "And I mean all of it, none of that riddley criptic shit you gave me when you came to see Fury right after I started working for SHIELD."

Oh...did she forget to tell Clint about that? Crap.

Yeah, she kind of forgot to mention that part to him. The fact that he didn't know anything about it didn't set right with him either. His arms cross but he stays close to her. Just in case anything is needed. He wants to hear this little explanation too.

Especially when he knows Fury and he knows SHIELD and what was explained to him... yeah, this guy was lying. That's all there was to it.
