Because Why Not?
Jack Power strode through the Helicarrier with a sense of purpose that matched days when there was an official field assignment even though there wasn't. For Jack Power was a man on a mission.

"Fury!" he called as he caught a glimpse of his target.

	"Deal." Well, that was a good way to put Alex's Issues into perspective, but just because he was only a paternalistic jackass, rather than evil, didn't mean Jack wanted to deal with him either. Ravioli and quail. "Swap small sections?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy would rather forget she had a brother. "That's the best way." She offered her plate. "I wasn't sure you'd be open to sharing entrees. Sometimes when I'm out with Alice or Tim it's easier to get extra forks. Dad just lets me steal off his plate." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sammy continued to eat, enjoying the delicious food and the atmosphere. Occasionally she considered Power and what his next plan would be. A good spy thinks ahead and tries to predict their opponent's next move, but Power on a date was a new experience. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Dealing with Fury, he'd been certain to leave plenty of space in the plan for the modifications made by the first few engagements of the evening. But having ad-hoc adapted it, he's determined to follow through. Nothing by halves. And as they eat, he thinks it out, builds up some confidence. Eventualy, they've finished an excellent meal and it's time to cover the check, which he does. He'd certainly saved up enough for it. "Ready to go?"

	She smiled up at him. "Yes. It was delicious but I think moving would be a good idea before we get sleepy." She took his arm again because they were doing this properly. "Where to now?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He smiles. "The docks." And once they reach the car, that's just where they'll head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
