	"There are a lot of bad ones out there," she said. "It's been quiet around here. If that helps any. We haven't been busy. Just dealing with the usual street level stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well they say no news is good news," Josh offered, idly taking another drink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Are those like spider senses?" Irina joked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He laughs. "Sort of. It's when I start thinking about every little rumor I hear in the area and start wondering which ones may actually happen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're buying yourself a ticket to the crazy house right there," Irina said. "There is such a thing as being too paranoid." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-07-10 09:26 pm UTC (link)
	"It's not paranoia if it's happened enough times to justify it," Josh clarified. He sighed at his drink. "Though I'd be lying if I said I didn't sometimes consider myself too paranoid." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There is such a thing," Irina assured him. "You sound like you need to relax a little and let go of things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-07-10 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Maybe." He raised an eyebrow. "Did you have a suggestion?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're in New Orleans. There's the best food in the world and the best music. It's impossible to not have a good time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-07-10 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	He shrugs. "I suppose that's something to think about." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2013-07-10 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	"There is your mistake. Don't think. Just relax and enjoy things." Irina finished her glass of vodka. "C'mon. I'll show you New Orleans." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I couldn't impose on you, Miss Krylova," Josh protested. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2013-07-10 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Please call me Irina," she said with a smile. "You're not imposing. It would be my pleasure to show you around New Orleans." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I..well I don't really have to be back for awhile..okay, ..Irina." Josh agreed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2013-07-10 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	Irina smiled. "Good." She wrapped an arm around his. "There's a little restaurant down a few blocks over. It has the best cajun food in the city. The tourists don't go there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well you know better than I do. Lead on," he said, deciding this could be fun. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Irina led him out of the bar and into the street. People walked all around, but as they kept walking the crowd thinned. "I suppose you've read all about me," she said. SHIELD had a file. She didn't even ask about that. SHIELD had a file on just about everyone in the business. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If not all then most of it," he admitted. "I know you have quite a pedigree in regards to Russian costumed and superhuman history. I know you've been with the Champions for awhile, much as your mother had before you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2013-07-10 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	Irina nodded. "I was with the Winter Guard before the Champions. What did my file say about my father?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-07-10 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Russian soldier, would later take up the mantle of the Red Guardian during the Cold War, was believed dead for a time, returned, believed dead once more only to discover he was alive and affiliated with Russia's clandestine Red Room program. That's a brief sum-up and I'm probably missing key points," Josh admits. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2013-07-10 10:54 pm UTC (link)
	"That sums it up rather nicely," she said. "You know all about me, tell me something about yourself." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you. My old man served as Battlestar, the black Bucky during John Walker's time as Captain America. Inherited a bit of his advanced physiology, it's why i can't get drunk." He didn't sound all that enthused to be talking about his dad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Irina nodded. She had been made to study some of the American costumes during her time training in the Red Room. "Where'd you grow up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
