[They were fighting. James was with her.

The last thing she actually remembered before being here was James-- the gorilla. That massive hulking beast that they ran into while trying to find the stasis chambers.

Well, that is one thing she has working in her favor, Jasper and James will certainly be looking for her.

She'd already tried to contact S.H.I.E.L.D's network for a Sitrep, and was unable to get a signal. Calling for an Evac. is looking like it's out of the question. So, she guesses it's time to switch tactics.

Her face is impassive as she looks into the screen. Blue-green eyes flick across the display then raise to glance around, before settling back on the screen.]

This is Agent Natasha Romanoff. S.H.I.E.L.D ID 31339. Code name Black Widow. This is an official request for information concerning my capture.

[Following the spoken words, she can be seen a moment before the image goes dark and the same information appears as a text message.]

[It doesn't take but a moment before she is back, a slight raise to her brows as she regards the device in expectation of response. This isn't the first time she's been captured, though, one of the first in quite some time that hasn't been orchestrated by her in an attempt to obtain information or part of a mission. She knows protocol.

She also knows that protocol doesn't always work in every situation, she prides herself in her ability to improvise, so she allows her expression to soften just a little.]

So, who wants to tell me what is going on? I'm pretty sure we'll all be happier if we do this the easy way.

Welcome to the City. Common greeting.

[theassassin]

Tell me, when was the last time you saw me?

[fe_male]

Hammer. When's the last time you saw me? I don't expect those to be the same.

[theassassin]

[Okay, so.. she's not sure which Hammer you mean.]

As in H.A.M.M.E.R? And the whole Norman Osborn... fiasco?

[fe_male]

HAMMER and SHIELD, wow, sounds like a baking soda commercial. Who's that?

don't know what I hate more.. journal failing or botching my HTML

[theassassin]

[Well, she won't say she's surprised by that answer.]

If you don't know, I'm sure you'll find out eventually. Lets just...say that I haven't seen you that recently.

html is a dick in general. so unforgiving

[fe_male]

[ ... ]

You're a totally different Widow, aren't you?

Forget ONE little code break and everything goes to shit..

[theassassin]

That seems to be the consensus, yes.

p much

[fe_male]

So we still know each other?

[theassassin]

Yes. We know each other well.

[fe_male]

...How well?

1/3?

[theassassin]

2/3

[theassassin]

3/3

[theassassin]

Very well.

[fe_male]

[ It takes him all of 2.6 seconds to determine: ] That is so not fair.

[theassassin]

Why? Because it's not you?

[This is amusing.]

[fe_male]

Specifically because it's not me.

[theassassin]

Can't help where we're from.

[fe_male]

So what else is important in your world?

[theassassin]

Lots of things. What's important in yours?

[fe_male]

Besides me? Gee, I just, I must not pay that much attention.

[theassassin]

[Good to see you're the same across all universes.]

Narcissistic bastard. Do you know James here?

[fe_male]

Rhodes or Barnes?

[theassassin]

Barnes. Rhodes is here too?

[fe_male]

Not that I know of. Just seemed like a decent distinction. How do you know Barnes?
