Re: The next morning...
The scent of coffee emanates from the kitchen, as does the smell of waffles, bacon and eggs.
There is also the sound of conversation.
"Jason, she is a sweet girl, if somewhat sad. She's...carrying something that she doesn't know how to put down. But you said she took offense on your behalf when Stevie Ray Jenkins started to attack you." Gran says.
"No, Ah said that she took offense after he called her outside of her name, and boy did she take a offense." Tech says, a note of pride in his tone.
There is silence for a moment, before Gran speaks again, as she is still cooking.
"You look at her the way your grandfather used to look at me, Jason." Gran says.
Tech laughs.
"Gran, I don't even know her! There's nothing between us. Besides...it would ruin our working relationship and Ah wouldn't do anything that would make issue for Fury. She's got a lot of people watchin' her all the time from what Ah gather. She's got to walk a very fine line, and...there's just nothing there." he says suddenly, as if he'd like this line of conversation to end.
"Methinks the genius doth rationalize too much." the older woman says.
