Natasha Romanoff has posed:
It's in-between missions at the Triskelion. Where Quinjets are always coming and going, the buzz of however many hundreds or thousands of personnel that could be there at any given point milling about and getting ready. Natasha Romanova is one that has just arrived back from an assignment that was a bust. A strike team sent in to a Hydra base that was supposed to be active and had been abandoned months ago, stripped bare. A quick debriefing later, some notes for the Intelligence analyst that had reviewed the data to be sent in for some 'remedial training' in the accounting division..
    But, she's here and she's going to load up a plate with some food.

Nick Fury has posed:
Fury arrives at the Food Court, frowning. Well, that was his normal resting face anyway. Moving to the dessert area, he sighs softly, eyes the pie, and grabs an apple instead. At least it was a delicious, red apple. Not as good as pie, but yeah, delicious. At least he tries to tell himself that.

After a few steps, Fury finds hmself in the vicinity of the Black Widow. On purpose?

"Heard it was a bust. You ok?"

Cinque Evers has posed:
Cinque is already sitting at the table with a small tablet next to him. He takes a small bite of food and write down several notes for a future recipe. When he sees Widow and Fury enter the Food Court, he offers a respectful nod to Fury and Romanova. "Good afternoon, Ma'am and Sir."

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
Natasha Romanova would nod at Fury, "Yes. Contact was a failure. There were no injuries but there was no trace evidence. How the surveillance team missed it will require followup." By which she means putting them through basic boot camp, which is where she tends to recommand anyone that annoys her goes when she can't officially reprimand them. "Agent." She would nod to Cinque.

Nick Fury has posed:
Fury turns slightly towards Cinque, nods, and says, "Agent."

Fury turns back to Nat, and shrugs. He takes a bite out of the apple, and scowls slightly. Bitter. He doesn't wince in distaste however. Just scowls. It was no different than the way he looks most of the time anyway.

"Ah. Well. I know you will follow up with your normal due dilligence. Wish every Agent we had was as thorough as you are."

Cinque Evers has posed:
"If you need another set of eyes to review the intelligence, I wouldn't mind reviewing it." Cinque lightly bites the corner of his lips, "If it is at my level of clearance, sometimes I have been able to make connections others miss." Cinque takes another bite of his stew and writes something else on his tablet, "Ah, Rosemary."

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
Natasha Romanova would nod, "Of course. You'll have my debrief in shortly. The sweep team is still going over the facility, however it seemed from the preliminary review that Hydra had been quite thorough in wiping it. They left thier normal booby traps behind. All of them manually triggered." Hydra was thorough - electronics could wear down over time or give off alerts. Pressure places and slicewire could last so long as the springs did.

Nick Fury has posed:
Fury looks over at Cinque. Back to Nat. Sidenods towards Cinque, and says, "That's why I'm the Director. Shi* happens. Why not?" Fury almost smiles, and then tosses the remainder of the apple in the compost.

Shaking his head, Fury adds, "Hydra." A small sigh. "As always. Okay. Keep me informed. Bring in who you need, like always." Fury eyes the pie again.

Cinque Evers has posed:
He types the final ingredients for the beef stew into a document titled, "Jamii Recipes" The screen displays the completed recipe, and he saves the file with a click.

"Got it," he mutters to himself, nodding in approval.

Closing the tablet,Cinque takes a deep breath and straightens his shoulders. His eyes narrow slightly, "Thank you," he says quietly, almost to himself. "I hope to provide any assistance against Hydra.

Natasha Romanoff has posed:
Natasha Romanova would nod, "There will always be more threats from Hydra." She looks rather sour. "The organization is irritatingly effective at preventing it's decapitation no matter how many losses it has taken throughout the decades. It is highly resilient." There's alsoa bit of twisted respect there. Never underestimate the capabiliites of your enemy, after all.

Nick Fury has posed:
"Absolutely." Fury nods, respectfully, in complete agreement. "Very well then. I'll let you brief the Agent here..." He looks at Cinque, "...and expect a report." Fury then turns to leave, but not before sneaking a piece of that pie. "Don't tell anyone, Romanova." Then, he was gone.
