Well, I didn't see that coming.

Which part, darling? That could refer to any number of things.

Although my mun wishes me to pass on words of congratulations.

Congratulations Phil, well deserved.

....Any chance I could get myself a Lola?

Any of it, really.

Definitely not the Director thing, though.

Thank you.

And no.

What, you think I'd crash it into a wall or something?

We don't quite have the resources we used to.

Alright, so technically, as Director, you'd get a vehicle upgrade. Like a quinjet or a 'carrier.

So you have that ... and I'll take Lola.

I don't want a vehicle upgrade, though. I'm perfectly happy with what I have.

Phil, c'mon. You're Director now. You deserve this upgrade.

I have a flying Corvette. How on earth is anything else an upgrade?

Well, for one a Quinjet is able to withstand an attack better, and won't be damaged by bullets...

We could lie and say we did.

I'm not quite sure I'm capable of a lie of quite that scale.

That's what the Bus is for.

Aren't you?

[Unfolding her arms:]

Okay.

[She's hanging back in an unspoken offer to talk about it. He'll have to start. Right now, she doubts any of her thoughts would settle better if she sounded them on him. She's still processing.]

Nobody's more suited for the job.

Yes, my mun seems particularly happy for you in regards to that.

What does your title mean, exactly - is it anything like being a ruler?

Congratulations, now do we get to tell the others you're still alive? Or we still keeping that under wraps? [Hey! She did manage to hide SOME secrets when she leaked everything into the network. Just... not as much as she would have really liked.]

Pun intended?

Okay.

[He pauses briefly.]

Whole new set of problems to deal with now.

Eventually, yes. But that's definitely something that needs to be handled... delicately, to say the least.

[She nods] You know it won't take Tony much longer to figure it out if he hasn't already.

Luckily my intel spill has him busy with other things for a bit, should buy you a month or two.

Maria will probably help divert some of that, too, as will the fact that all records of my team have been wiped.

Still, though, it's just a matter of time.

I'll finish up the mission I'm on for Fury [Hey he asked her to do it before giving Phil his position] Then if you have any orders. Not like I'm doing much other than keeping an eye on Rogers. He's good at staying out of trouble though.

Pretty good at getting into it, too, from all indications.

But I'll see where everything stands when you're done with your mission.
