That perfect little spanner that is Thunderbolts
An excerpt of what the future looks like for the avatar of The Morrigan and her blue eyed sergeant...
"Seriously, Bucky? Valentina? And you never said a word?"
"Doll, hold on a minute. She told me she contacted you. She said you told her no."
"That was before I met up with you and Sam in Baltimore. That was part of my missing six months around Westview, at least I think it is anyway. You and I weren't, you know, 'You and I' then, and you know how much I hate this dippy air quote stuff. So, if Yelena had not come to see Kate and started making all those slightly drunken declarations over her dinner in that bar, then I'd still be in the dark?"
"Kari, I figured you'd understand more than Sam might. We both know..."
"That The Avengers is just a note in the history books? That anything anyone has tried to do for the last few years to pull a new team together was just a waste of time? Oh yeah, I get that, Buck. No Stark big bucks? No Steve and the reluctance of the world to accept Sam as Captain America? So, no team."
"Would you stop the rant for one minute? Please? Yelena and I, her old man Alexei and, heaven help me, John Walker all told Val that she needed to talk to you in person. The team is missing what you are and what you can do. So, if you get an unknown caller later, doll, please, don't hang up on her. OK? It's supposed to be a lunch meeting. That's what she said anyway."
