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!

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.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

[All of that information is stored away his brain, all of it in bits and pieces only just large enough that he'll recognize things just AFTER he makes such mistakes and not before that. All the same, he nods along to what she's saying until she gets to the end of her advice.]

That's... the one with the spinning head girl and the pea soup, right?

[agentxthirteen]

Yeah. The one that it turns out you shouldn't show to children. Yeah.

[ She made a face, remembering a couple nights she'd stayed up to make plans to kick Satan's ass if he showed up at her house. ]

Wait. Have you seen it?

[justakidfrombrklyn]

[A firm and slow nod]

Someone said it was necessary. I'm... not sure if I agree.

[He'd been a little wary around pea soup after that. And he'd watched the priests at his church a little carefully on the stairs just in case.]

[agentxthirteen]

[ She looks faintly alarmed at that. ]

Who told you it was necessary? Was it Barton? Because Barton likes screwing with people. Don’t tell me it was Stark. Stark messes with people way worse than Barton.

Not that you shouldn’t turst Stark and Barton, but... but when it comes to movies, I wouldn’t.

[ She frowns, still trying to figure out who it could have been. Not Natasha, at least, not anymore. Natasha respects Steve too much to mess with him, though teasing is still fair game. She looks doubtfully at Steve ]

Wilson?
