Checking In
He had to admit, the leave wasn't nearly as bad as he thought it would be. He didn't go mountain climbing like Val suggested, but he did take time to do some things he hadn't had a chance to do in a long while, and it had been good for him. So he decided to say thanks by dropping by for an unofficial visit. He knocked on her office door.

"Are you in, Doctor?" He would have called her by name, but that wouldn't have looked good in front of passing recruits.

	"Wait, what?" He asked with a chuckle. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She rested her chin on her wrist, smirking a little. "Ahh, you didn't know there's Chuck Norris like statement made about you? You singlehandedly brought down a pack of AIM stooges with a mannequin's hand as a weapon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're kidding me? I have a fact list?" he asked, both amused and flattered. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-11 01:31 pm UTC (link)
	"I would never kid about such a thing," she replied, still smirking. "Not when you are known for making people cry in interrogations with just a silent stare." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-11 04:48 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay, to be fair, that only happened once." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-12 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	She waved her hand dismissively. "It still happened, it's fair game for the List." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-12 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay, now you got me curious. What else is on the list?" he asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-12 09:07 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm afraid that is covered by the patient-doctor confidentiality clause," she replied with a mock pout. She was so sorry she couldn't help. Really. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-12 09:18 pm UTC (link)
	"Uh huh," he said, the epitome of convinced. Honest. "Well I have other ways of finding out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-13 04:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Like the aforementioned stare? " she offered helpfully. "I warn you, I am a trained shrink and more resilient than others to such." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-13 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	"No, but a good agent doesn't reveal all his methods," he said with a smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-13 09:26 pm UTC (link)
	"Oooh. How mysterious of you," she praised and kept from chuckling. "What does he reveal then?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-13 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	"He reveals that he's very grateful that a friend gave him such good advice," he stated. "Also one day, if possible, he'd like to take her out to lunch as a thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-15 02:25 am UTC (link)
	She rested her chin on her wrist and smiled at him. A ha, he tipped his hand. "Out to lunch? That does sound tempting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-15 02:33 am UTC (link)
	"Well we are speaking hypothetically, Doctor," he reminded. "I'm assuming he'd take her wherever she'd like." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-15 06:37 pm UTC (link)
	"That's a very generous assumption, because the SHIELD cafeteria doesn't count," she teased and added after a moment. "I have heard of a nearby place with the hypothetically best chocolate torte." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-15 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	"I believe I too know of this hypothetical place. I'm certain that hypothetically speaking, an agent could easily take you there," he said, managing not to smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-15 07:45 pm UTC (link)
	"Hypothetically, this all sounds delightful. And while theoretically an agent could take me there, it'd be far more fun with a more specific example of agent." This was the longest proof she's ever had to do for a meal, rather amusing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-15 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh really?" He asked, feigning intrigue. "What type of agent would that be?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-16 01:43 pm UTC (link)
	"Perhaps the one that used a bolt gun and some frozen carrots to repell against a troop AIM beekeepers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-16 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	And that had him busting up. "For..for the record," he said between laughs. "The 'carrots' were actually miniature explosives in disguise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-17 02:39 am UTC (link)
	"Oh really? I read eye-witness reports that insist it was carrots." She crossed her arms and smirked at him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-17 02:56 am UTC (link)
	"Then you may I have to check those sources of yours, Dr. Morse," he deadpanned, trying to keep a straight face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-17 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	She shook her head, humoring the man. "Really Agent Hoskins, who would fashion miniature explosives to look like vegetables?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-17 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	"You'd be surprised what the tech department will make when they'r bored." His tone turns serious and sincere. "So would you like to get some of that chocolate torte some day?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-19 04:07 pm UTC (link)
	She tilted her head to his change in tone, taking the question in consideration. "I do beleive I would, Joshua, and maybe even a sooner 'some day' than later," she said, and smiled wider. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-19 06:35 pm UTC (link)
	Josh smiled broadly. There was something about the way she said his full name that just felt good. "Great! I've got a few more days of my leave left. Maybe you can give me a call when your schedule's open?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-20 05:09 pm UTC (link)
	And it was a lovely and bright smile to see. "Barring the usual fun stuff that pops up around here? I can say the next two days are perfectly clear," she replied. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-20 06:55 pm UTC (link)
	"Cool, I'll keep my schedule open." He stood. "Well I'll let you get back to work, besides I promised my mom I'd stop by. I'll look forward to your call, Val." And then he accidentally knocked some papers opff her neck. "Oh geez, I'll get that," he assured, bending over to pick them up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valini_morse 2013-11-20 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	She smirked in amusement, visiting the mom huh? So cute! "I wouldn't dare keep a mother waiting, give me a call when you have the time," she agreed. However, him scooping up papers made her chuckle and keep her line off vision on his face just in case. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2013-11-20 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	He quickly puts the papers back on the desk, not noticing her look. "I will," he assured. "See you later, Val." (Reply to this)(Parent)
