The Meet and Greet Meme
For Characters
 This is the IC version of the The Role Call Meme



[The Rules]

1. Find the thread for the canons/fandoms of your character. If you don't see one, make one!

2. Post with all of your character accounts. Yes, all of them. Throwing in your entire musebox is totally fine in this meme. (Please write down the name and canon/fandom of the character in the subject line, and also if they're canon, AU, crossover or OC, etc.)

3. AU characters are totally OK. Crossover/fusion characters may post at all the fandoms/canons their crossover/fusion is derived from. Fandom OCs may post at their fandom/canon's thread. Original Story/Universe OCs will have their own thread.

4. Tag around all over the place - Canonmates, non-canonmates, everything is OK!

Sharon / Agent 13 || MCU || OTA

[investigador]

"How are you tonight?" Karen asked tentatively.

[agentxthirteen]

Sharon offered Karen an equally tentative smile before waving a hand to the bar stool beside her. “Got some nice marks on my record, and my boss opted not to ask many questions about what I was doing on a cargo ship.” She waved to the bartender and gave Karen a nod. She might as well buy Karen a drink - Sharon wasn’t the one with a job at a struggling law firm in Hell’s kitchen.

“What about you? That guy you were worried about still after you?”

Sorry for the delay, life's been crazy.

[investigador]

Karen moves closer to the bar, and sits near the other woman. Very intent on what she has to say, Karen leans in a bit as she listens, "oh, that is great. But, what where you doing on that ship?" Karen asked honestly.

When she bought Karen a drink, all she could do was smile, she wished she could offer her something more, "I am so grateful that you found me, and the others. I really am," she said quietly, the look on her face darkening. When the bartender comes over, Karen orders a scotch.

"Me? Well, I still have to look over my shoulder, the man that took me...he is ruthless, and even though he is in prison, his girlfriend isn't. and if they know I escaped again, I have no idea what will happen next." she said honestly, biting at her bottom lip.

np! Work's been crazy for me, too. And I hurt my wrist, so the delay probably worked for the best!

[agentxthirteen]

Sharon merely smiled and opted not to give too many details away. She’d been a spy for too long to feel inclined to share information openly.

“Do he and his girlfriend know who you are?”

Sharon wasn’t going to say it, but whoever Karen had pissed off had already kidnapped her. Things didn’t sound like they were going to go in Karen’s favor.

I hope you are feel better!

[investigador]

"He knows me, he had tried to have me killed before, it was all because of that Union Allied debacle, but he knows me," she said wearily. Karen opted to drop the rest of the conversation since Sharon was seemed so adamant to avoid mos of it.

"So, basically, I don't know what I am going to do," though she did have the Daredevil watching over her.

Thanks! I'm good now, just super busy!

[agentxthirteen]

"No superpowers, no training," Sharon mused. She tapped her finger against her glass.

"Then I suggest you make yourself impossible to kill. He's afraid you know something, right?" She shrugged. "You can give what you have on him to someone who will check in with you periodically, and if you miss the checkpoint, they'll release everything. You can tell him that you won't release the stuff as long as he leaves you alone."

That's good

[investigador]

Karen had wished that were the case. If it had been back in the Union Allied days, then maybe---yeah. Now? Now what she had done was take away his friend, his right hand man, and also went to see his mother. She was dead, there was nothing she could do, say, or fix to make this any better.

With a sigh, and a fake smile for Sharon's effort., she nodded her head. "Sounds like a plan," she said lamely.

[agentxthirteen]

Sharon frowned at her. "And that's a lie," she said quietly, studying Karen's face more closely.

"I think it's time you tell me more about what the hell happened to you, Karen."

[investigador]

Karen sighed, and looked down, finishing her drink before she spoke, "I can't tell you, should I tell you, I put you in as much danger as I am already in. I took something from Fisk, and I also did something that he would kill me for doing. He killed Ben Urich because he was with me when we did it," she said softly, for only Sharon to hear.

[agentxthirteen]

Sharon chuckled and hung her head. She took a couple seconds to get herself under control as she continued laughing quietly to herself. “Karen. I can protect myself.”

She sobered at the mention of Ben Ulrich. She was familiar with the name, of course, but she made a note to look it up later in the context of Karen Page. “I’m no reporter. I’m a former SHIELD agent who works for the CIA and has connections to the Avengers. He’s not going to get rid of me as easily. Now tell me what happened.”

[investigador]

"That's not the point, Sharon. I know you can, but I have to know that I can protect the people around me, and to show that I care about their safety in some way," she tried not to sound too tired, and angry, but some of it slipped through.

Karen stared her down for a few moments before she polished off her scotch, and ordered another one. Once she had it, and the bartender was gone, she looked up with a sigh. "I shot his right hand man, he kidnapped me from my home, but I got the upper hand on him, and I killed him. The reason he kidnapped me was because I found out Fisk's mother was not dead, but in a senior home upstate. I tricked Ben into going with me, and then I tricked him into going to talk to her. We got a lot of information on Fisk, though none of it was admissible as far as getting him busted," she then looked down into her drink, and slammed it back.

"Then he found out about Ben, and Ben lied about who was there with him, thus saving my life. Yet, my trickery is what got him killed in the first place," feeling disgusted with herself, yet again, she waved the bartender over to pour her another drink.

[agentxthirteen]

Holy shit.

Sharon stalled after Karen finished, taking a slow sip of her beer.

Holy shit. Yeah, Karen was screwed. Karen hadn't just messed with the man and the man's right hand, she'd messed with Fisk's mother. Fisk was not the sort of person who wanted people to know anything without his express permission.

"Okay," she said after a couple minutes. "Two things. First, you're going to tell me what you can about the mother. Second, I'm going to train you."

There went her free time for the foreseeable future.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Neighbor. [nod]

[agentxthirteen]

[ Sharon’s jaw clenches. She can still remember the last time they spoke, and she hasn’t forgotten how short-tempered he’d been. She supposed that she couldn’t really blame him, though. He had just found out that she’d been spying on him all along. At least he’s talking to her again, right? ]

[ She gives him a tight nod. ]

Captain.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

How goes the infectious disease ward?

[agentxthirteen]

[ And now he's messing with her. She steels herself. That's fine. He's earned it. She deserves it. It's what she gets. ]

Great! Found a reporter trying to sneak in and lie about an ebola outbreak, so we all put on hazmat suits and hosed him down before telling him he'd been exposed to fama contrafactus. He ended up spending the night.

How goes saving the world?

[justakidfrombrklyn]

[headtilt, but not a smug one]

I'm still breathing. World's still spinning.

[a deep sigh before--]

What are you really doing, if you don't mind me asking? I didn't exactly have your name so I couldn't look you up after... everything.

[agentxthirteen]

Working with the CIA. [ She shrugs. ] Couldn't give up being a spy.

And the name's Sharon. If that helps. Since I guess we never really got a chance to talk after... Well.

For what it's worth, I'm sorry we lied to you. [ And bugging his apartment. But if he's not going to mention it, she's... probably just going to avoid mentioning that. ]

[justakidfrombrklyn]

[slow incline of the head]

I'm sorry for what happened with SHIELD. It mighta been necessary, but that doesn't mean it didn't throw a wrench in the lives of a lot of good people.

[and end more than a few good lives. he knows this]

[agentxthirteen]

[ She bites the inside of her cheek. She doesn’t want to mention all the undercover operatives who had been compromised, doesn’t want to mention that she didn’t think SHIELD’s downfall was necessary at all. What’s done is done. Not even Captain America can magic a Hydra-free SHIELD into existence. ]

Thanks. [ She keeps her face down. She isn’t a good enough actor to hide how angry she still is about that week. It wasn’t just Hydra; it was herself. She had failed Fury in protecting Steve, failed SHIELD and her aunt by not rooting out Hydra sooner, failed the people she had sworn to protect by not stopping the Insight Helicarriers. ]

[ She swallows. She doesn’t want to talk about any of that with him. But it occurs to her that they have little else to talk about. She had known him as Kate, but she doesn’t want to act like she still knows him, not when he doesn’t know about her at all. All he really knows is that she used to be a SHIELD agent. That had lied to him. And whom he had probably thought might be about to attack him after Fury had been shot. ]

So... What are you up to these days?

[ Great. No trace of awkward chitchat here, nope. Not awkward at all. ]

[justakidfrombrklyn]

[It's not as if he can't read some of her body language, some of the twitches and frustration in her directed squarely at him but more importantly, at herself. He hadn't made the call he'd made because he thought it would be popular, but there had been a wrong and as far as he'd been concerned, it'd taken just as radical of a decision to try and right it. He stood by what he'd done, mostly because he had to. Or really, what was the point?]

Moved up to New York again. Got the band back together. Been working where we can to stomp out some snakes.

[agentxthirteen]

[ She nodded. She'd support anything that involved stomping out Hydra. She wished she had more freedom to do so herself. ]

So it's a band now? Is it more heavy metal or grunge?

[ She tilted her head and forced herself to relax a little more. The faint smile she offered him was more genuine than any so far. ]

You can't say big band. If you do, I'll have to make a crack about your age. Gregorian chant is out, too.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Given our 'benefactor' [and how clear it is he's not quite comfortable with that], I think I'd have to go with the metal one.

[wait, what?]

Gregorian what?

[agentxthirteen]

[ Sharon smirks. Metallica and ACDC were definitely more Tony's thing. ]

Gregorian chant. Gregorian monks sang it? Some people still do. It's... kind of weird, because it can be used to make people fall asleep, but it can also be used to scare the crap out of them. Depending on what song you've got.

[ She pursed her lips together and tries to explain as best she can. ] I had to take a music appreciation course in school. Some things stick. Don't fall asleep to it after seeing The Exorcist, though. Trust me on that one.
