[... oh that's awkward
and she doesn't feel willing to admit it must have been sent by mistake
she's pretty sure she didn't hit send. she didn't even finish typing the message.
glitchy ass phones.]
what would it matter when you were going to burn me all the same. there was no being good enough
i thought you said it was going to be different than working for shield.

[ She doesn't really believe in 'good enough', just getting more efficient. People adapt and change all the time for survival. Situations get complex. This was one of those times, even if the last line of the text hits her. ]

It wouldn't, other than if you wanted a technicality. I guess SHIELD is still ingrained in me, too.

[ It would be better if she just apologized, but... ]

Do you want a promise that it won't happen again?
When this team inevitably splits up, think for a while about which side you want to be on.

[immaterialgirl]

can't trust a single thing you promise, valentina.
you know that.
i need assurance.

... we're not splitting up.
[funny how somebody so distrustful and willing to believe the worst in others, wants to believe so strongly in that. that despite how dysfunctional they all are, set up in a position they're surely going to fail in the moment things get too big... they'll somehow make it through together.]

[ciadirector]

I know that.

[ What kind of assurance? Destroying the technology that worked against her, most likely, but Val still has other projects for that so she'll go for something a little more personal first and see how it lands. ]

It would be in your best interest to stay together, but if things change, you can always count on me to make sure Fury never gets ahold of you again.

he already collected my dna sample and let some alien use it.
not sure what use he'd have left for me.
but if i hated him before, it's nothing compared to now.

[ciadirector]

Yeah, they were the ones he made collect it, too.
How about this, when I die, I'll be sure to take him with me.
Also, I'll give you and Mel full control over the sound tech from the vault. How's that?

[ Might as well cave on that a bit. ]

[immaterialgirl]

sounds romantic, going out with your greatest... whatever he is to you.

fine. i trust mel with it far more than i do you.

[ciadirector]

'Whatever he is to me' is a pretty accurate description. Depends on the day.

Great, then we've reached some kind of deal.
