[debrief]

[ Coulson's sitting on a bench in the park. There's a black labrador puppy curled up by his feet, tongue lolling out.

To the very trained and familiar observer, it'll be clear that Coulson's still holding himself a little more stiffly than usual, but for the most part he looks relaxed and calm. Approachable, even. ]

I'm going to have to find you a name, won't I? [ The puppy whines happily.

Coulson shakes his head slowly. When he speaks again, his voice in the same deliberate and even tone, he seems to be addressing empty air: ] Barton, if you're going to follow me around, at least be more subtle about it.


[ ooc; Feel free to run into him at the park or on his way home. Coulson adopted a puppy from Thor. Also, tags may or may not contain spoilers, so proceed with caution? ]

Is that a serious question?

[asofwar]

Was yours serious?

[debrief]

How he got that many dogs? Yes.

video;

[asofwar]

I answered - they multiplied.

video;

[debrief]

All right. [ He makes a mental note to talk to Thor about neutering dogs. ]

video;

[asofwar]

Was that helpful?

video;

[debrief]

Somewhat, yes.

video;

[asofwar]

May I ask how it is that you know Thor?

video;

[debrief]

We met in New Mexico. [ And there's footage of Sif's arrival and fight, too. ]

[asofwar]

[The place where she supposedly will find him, according to Thor.]

Pleasant meeting?

video;

[debrief]

In the end.

video;

[asofwar]

[Good.]

He entrusted you with a dog, so you must be of trust.

video;

[debrief]

I'd like to think I am trustworthy. [ With a self-deprecating smile. ]

video;

[asofwar]

What people think of themselves does not always coincide with what they are.

video;

[debrief]

Agreed. [ That's why the smile was there. ]

video;

[asofwar]

Your name?

video;

[debrief]

Agent Phil Coulson of SHIELD. [ Since that's... sort of like a title, maybe. ]

video;

[asofwar]

Agent Phil Coulson of Shield. And is there any name of those four you would rather be called?

[Pulling your leg. A little. Maybe. It's a mouthful.]

video;

[debrief]

Just Coulson. Thanks.

[ He's heard that before. ]

video;

[asofwar]

Son of Coul. Coulson - you may address me as Sif.

[The Lady part's getting a bit tedious to keep repeating.]

[debrief]

A pleasure, ma'am. [ Because one had better be polite when talking to a goddess, huh? ]
