Fluff meme- Cheering up
Lena sat at her desk, rubbing her face to try and keep calm and not lose it. One of her side projects had just fallen through because some lab tech had prepared the injections they'd been using with the solution with the wrong concentration. Months of work and research down the drain because of some incompetent...Months! On top of that now she had to tell Fury that they'd have to restart for stupid technical reasons.

She looks over at the coffee machine and remembers it broke down today (she went through so many), oh fuck it all, couldn't things go right for once? Another headdesk and she just gives up and stays there with her head against her desk, letting the frustration wash away and replace itself with the feeling of helplessness. She'd lost all that time for someone's amateur mistake. Why hadn't she triple checked? Well because they were usually reliable. This was what happened when new people came in.

Worst day in a while.

	"I changed it back," she huffed. "But go ahead, Fury can't make injured or dead bodies squirm as well," Lena sighs and rests her head against Josh's shoulder while looking quite dejected. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I think you'd be surprised what Fury could do." He stiffens a little in surprise when she leans on him. He looks around for a moment, no one looking, before slowly wrapping an arm around her. "Sorry this happened to you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Then make it a clean shot. I've seen you at the shooting range, you can do it." The arm is welcome and she leans into him a bit more. "Nothing for you to be sorry about. You didn't do anything but bring coffee. Which is always very appreciated." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not sure I should. You do good work here, Dr. Jessen," he said sincerely. He smiled. "It always boils down to coffee." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Wuss," she mumbles but doesn't really mean it. "And what have we said about this 'Dr. Jessen' stuff?" She sighed, she'd let Josh get away with the 'Doctor' shots, she really didn't mind them. They were often fun, especially since he didn't enjoy 'Agent' much either. "Yes. It does. I think my coffee machine knows when I need it most and then picks that time to throw a tantrum."

	He chuckles a little. "Sorry, Lena. I wouldn't joke about machine conspiracies, there are enough horror stories about that sort of thing on record. Taking over the coffee is end-of-the-world level stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If someone even attempted that I hope you would actually make some clean shots. Taking over coffee is a giant No," she finally smiled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
