Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 5:47 pm"Why wouldn't I believe it? I don't have any evidence that you're lying."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 6:39 pm"But perhaps I was lying in an alternate universe."
Re: Never Enough Time for This

"So, other than that, how've you been feeling?"

Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 12:34 am"Who?" Nina asks, sounding completely innocent.
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:02 pm"Some crazy SHIELD agent with wild ideas and hair."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:05 pm"...Ryan?" Nina asks.
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:06 pm"No, Ryan's hair is more 'business-time'."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:08 pm"...Oh, you were THAT book?" Nina asks, "Wow! Janice is a REALLY good liar."

You're saying you didn't know?"

Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:20 pm"Of course not," Nina says, "I was trying to shoot you. If I knew it was you, I would've shot you."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:20 pm"See, I'd appreciate it if you didn't do that."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 3:28 pm"What? Why?" Nina asks, looking confused.
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2013 7:32 pm"I have an extreme allergic reaction to bullets. They cause me to die."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 12:36 amNina snorts, "Please. Like bullets can actually hurt you."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 1:55 am"Might do."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 3:21 amNina snorts, "Will, I know your body pretty well. It'd take something a lot more than some made up magic SHIELD bullet to hurt ya."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 11:44 am"Wait, you made that up?"
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 3:23 pm"Well, yeah," Nina says, "I'd never try to really hurt you. On purpose. You're my friend."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Wed Sep 04, 2013 10:29 pm"Well, yeah, but I didn't think that would stop you."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Thu Sep 05, 2013 2:40 amNina laughs, "Yeah. I am kind of terrible like that."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Thu Sep 05, 2013 3:48 pm"Eh, not terrible. Driven. Driven's good."
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Fri Sep 06, 2013 3:16 am"One of the other interns called me 'an abomination against god and science'," Nina says, sounding proud.
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Fri Sep 06, 2013 4:22 pm"Against science?"
Re: Never Enough Time for This
Posted: Fri Sep 06, 2013 4:37 pm"I figured out a way to grow human organs in pigs!" Nina says, "It was amazing."
"Unfortunately there was a mixup at the teambuilding luau and...well...."
