[ Oh, he's definitely gonna need a few more drinks. And she might need a few more than that. ]
About 70 years into the future by a goddamn alien monolith. I hate those things. [ He might have absolutely no idea what she's talking about but there's no missing the very tired irritation of someone for whom this is a chronic problem. ]
Anyway, it wasn't all of us who were sent there — Fitz was left behind. I've mentioned him before, he's married to my best friend, Jemma. They retired a few years ago but still work with us on a consulting basis.
[ Taking a sip of her beer, she reaches up to tuck her hair back behind her ear. ] So, since Fitz wasn't with us, he took the long way to get to the future and spent the time in cryo. He showed up, convinced the guy in charge I should fight to the death in their messed up Inhuman gladiator ring (that's a whole other story), we all almost died a few times, and eventually, we got back to our own time and stopped the horrible, very bad future.
[ There's a lot more to how they stopped it and why it needed to be stopped at all. Like her supposedly being the Destroyer of Worlds, or how they'd had to let Coulson die to finally stop the time loop. But she'd much rather focus on every other part of the story than those. ]
