Debrief 001 | [Action/Voice] | Déjà vu?

[Coulson wakes up, trees to his left and right and a path right in front of him. A short distance down the path and to the right he can see a house, actually he can see a few houses from where he is. Everything seems familiar.

The sensation of familiarity is disquieting at first, until everything comes back.

Well... that explains a lot.

Coulson looks around and spots his journal, but sadly there are no clothes this time. So he's stuck in the usual new feather garb of white pants. After being in dark suits for most of his life, he's not sure he likes those pants. With the nice new scar on his chest and back, he's not sure he likes the fact he's shirtless. Also, there is a chill in the air which makes being shirtless very uncomfortable.

Using the mountains and the river, both to his left, he manages to orient himself. With this knowledge he heads towards town center to visit the clothing shop and get dressed. You may run into him a he heads to the clothing shop. Feel free to notice the fresh looking scar almost directly over his heart (but not actually) and the bigger one on his back. Coulson may greet you, but mainly he's focusing on getting to the clothing shop. Unless things happen.]

((ooc; Location is over by House 4, just a short distance up the path leading towards the farmlands.))

[After getting clothes and after whatever adventures happen while he was getting clothing, Coulson puts together a first new post to the Luceti community.]

Greetings Luceti.

My name is Phil Coulson. I have been here before a few months back before... leaving and it seems I have returned.

As far as I know I don't have any unfinished business from before, but If I did have some with you please remind me.

I have probably missed a lot, but is there anyone whose willing to give me a brief summary of things I've missed? I'd be grateful.

[Small pause.]

I think that's all... No wait, Rogue, do you still need help at the item shop? Sorry for leaving you in the lurch.

Maybe. When were you here?

I don't recall meeting anyone with that name.

[Your Bond impression get an amused smile.]

Ah. That's not pleasant.

Cool things? Any more details on that?

[You are interesting.

[So are you and your persistence.]

Just some old tech I hear. 1960s kind, not USB or even floppy compatible.

[That gets a raised eyebrow. So he knows her, does he? That considerably narrows things down for her and judging from Barton's attitude, that narrows it down even more.]

I believe I'm doing quite well, all things considered.

Let me guess; Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division?

Ouch. Well, Natasha never does anything by a half...

[Coulson sighs.]

It's not believing it that is the problem. Zombies are just the worse possible scenario. [Wait, what. He has a scenario for zombies? Yes, he does. It involves that gun from R&D.]

Alright. I'll head on over.

[Forever persistent.]

Oh. That's kind of disappointing. But useful, I would think.

Good to know though, Mr.... Actually, I don't believe you gave me your name...

Can't say I'm sad that she did it.

[Otherwise there's every chance that he'd still be Loki's goddam lapdog.

Clint has long since learnt to just accept that Coulson probably has plans for everything, up to and including an invasion by Sauron and a bunch of orcs. He probably has paperwork for it.]

I'll be waiting, sir.

I didn't, Mister Coulson.

[Slow smile. He was playing now.]

But you're right, it could be useful if we can find a way to access it. Data is data, after all.

It's Lupin. Arsene Lupin III.

[Oh yes, he know her. Agent Carter's file is long, but rewarding to read. You are his role-model, concerning most things actually.]

That's good.

[Coulson gives a small smile.]

Yes. You've heard of it, then? Call us SHIELD. It's ...shorter.

Well. At least you knew where to get them?

[It's an attempt at a joke. Probably a poor one, but. There's so much he doesn't know yet--and not just about what happened to her.]

I will be. There was a draft, just over a week ago. It was...bad.

[To put it lightly.]

But we can talk about that later. I'm not sure if your old apartment is still free, but we can definitely find you some place.

Didn't think so.

[Polite smile back.]

Potentially? Very useful indeed.

[Coulson reads mystery novels. He knows that name.]

...As in Arsène Lupin, the gentleman thief?

From Barton, yes. Good to see the fight goes on.

["Fight" in the figurative sense, hopefully.]

And that your people succeeded where we could not.

[In finding him, that is. She also knows that, now.]

Yes. Kind of. He's my grandfather.

[A beat.]

Let me guess~ He's the lead character in a series of novels written in the early 1900s by Maurice Leblanc, right?

No, I'm not sad she did it either.

[He doesn't want to think about Clint still being under Loki's thrall.

SHIELD has Paperwork for pretty much everything. Coulson has contingency plans for nearly everything. It's a beautiful symbiosis.]

Be there in a few.

------------

[Coulson arrives at CH5 a short time later and heads up to the fifth floor. It looks a lot like CH4, where he had been staying previously. Once he reaches the floor he check the Kitchen area. There he spots Clint.]

Barton.

[Coulson enters the kitchen, but he isn't dressed like normal. Instead he is in black slacks and a sweater. It's cold out, alright? And none of his injuries like the cold.]

Good to see you. [In the flesh and not under mind control.]

You look much improved since I last I saw you.

[Coulson frowns faintly at Loki. Inside he's cursing in seventeen different languages.]

I would hope so. You look the same.

[Cue bland smile.]

Still no conviction. Such a shame.

For a long time, but I hear I went home in April.

Either way, it's nice to meet you, Phil. A friend of Rogue's can definitely be a friend of mine.

[He would never say that it's a bad thing to have Coulson alive. That's about as far from the truth as he can get. And yet... hell he'd screwed up and he knows it. Not to mention the sick feeling he gets whenever he thinks that he's partially responsible. SHIELD Agents know that they could die at anytime, but it's not usually him pulling the trigger.

He stands up when Coulson enters, slipping into a more formal stance, hands clasped behind his back. It's not his normal reaction, but things aren't exactly normal.]

Coulson. I could say the same.

[And he's checking Coulson over even as he says it, noticing the different outfit and how he isn't standing as straight as he normally does. He doesn't like that one bit.]

[Loki smirks.]

Allow me to... bring you up to speed as the mortals say.

Your fashion parade of questionable taste managed to pull themselves together enough to slaughter the Chitauri. Well done on timing your suicide via my spear, by the way. With only a few buildings thoroughly blown up, I was sent as a prisoner back to Asgard.

[And this is a smile that should worry you so very, very much.]

Well done, all in all. I'd been a bit worried.

Edited (NOW WITH MORE ADDED DOUCHEBAGGERY) 2012-11-09 02:55 (UTC)

Impressive lineage.

[Bland tone is go.]

Certainly is. Good set of books too. Nice to meet you Mr. Lupin.

[After meeting Star Wars characters, meeting a living descendent of a character from an old books series is hardly as shocking. Sorry Lupin.]

Of course it was Barton. [His voice is full of weary amusement.}

The fight will always go on it seems.

[There is a pause, then his voice is gentle but not condescending.]

Our people succeeded. The SSR is the parent of SHIELD, and you never did stop looking.

[That dedication is something he admires and, perhaps, is the most unhealthy thing he's picked up form her file for himself. Then again, he had a determination problem before SHIELD...]

True.

[Coulson allows the joke, but it is kinda weak.

He's worried about her now, but knows that being over concerned when it's obvious she'd rather not think about it for a while would only be hurtful. Whatever happened is too fresh right now, too there. Talking about it wouldn't help her at all.]

Okay. We'll talk later. [There is concern in his voice but he knows to let it lie.]

If it's not I'm sure I can settle in somewhere. It's not like Luceti is really lacking in space.

[Oh that smirk is not a good thing.

Coulson listens to Loki' monologue, ready with some snarky comments when what he's saying really sinks in.

Are you saying that-

And he-

What. The. Hell.]

Thank you for telling me what I already knew. Always nice to get a fresh perspective incidents. Makes the paperwork easier.

But are you really implying this was... planned? Between us? Really?

[Shakes his head slightly.]

It's almost believable. [A slight, flat chuckle and a bland smile.]

I know I wasn't working with you. If I was everything would have gone much smoother.

[Loki snorts.] A plan between us? Oh no. No. Goodness no.

I'm merely saying it worked out quite conveniently, which was rather nice all things considered. I'd a timetable.

I arrived in July and left in September. So it seems we never met.

Nice to meet you too Kurt. [The offer of friendship makes Phil slightly bemused but also a bit happy.] Well, thank you. Hopefully that'll still be the case after you get to know me better. [There is amusement in his voice to show he is kidding. Mostly.]
