- Melinda May has posed:
It did not go unnoticed that Dean was not there to help rescue Sam from Hydra, and May took it upon herself to find out why. Even with SHIELD's resources at hand, tracking down someone skilled at staying off the grid is not instantaneous. But, finally, they got a hit. A court hearing in Virginia regarding a young man matching Dean's description and some very unusual circumstances. May has the intel experts lock that file, then goes to speak with Dean herself.
As Jo is commenting on Dean's table manners or lack thereof, the simply dressed Asian woman steps into the diner, looking at first glance just like any other traveller stopping in for a bite to eat before getting back on the road. She doesn't even glance toward where the two Hunters are seated as the waitress leads her to a table nearby.
Of course, to anyone used to having to keep an eye out, May practically screams 'Fed'.
- Melinda May has posed:
Still behaving like just another tourist, May asks for a glass of water before proceeding to try to find anything on the menu that isn't either deep fried or drowning in fat. She's not hopeful. She also uses the time to quietly check the building for exits (three: the front door, the kitchen, and the plate glass windows), defensible positions (two: the main counter and behind what sounds like fairly solid cooking surfaces based on the sheer amount of banging and clanging the short order cook is making), and potential threats in the room.
The last is just one. The blonde woman sitting across from Dean. She's very likely a hunter just like Winchester, based on her posture, choice of clothing, and the pistol she thinks is adequately concealed on her person.
- Melinda May has posed:
"It's certainly quaint," is the Asian woman's reply to Jo's words. She finally decides that maybe (hopefully) the roast chicken plate will be the least offensive thing on the menu, and requests that from the waitress. Then, as if to further try to sell the tourist cover, she pulls her phone out of one pocket and starts to tinker with it.
She's of course not idly checking Facebook. She's sending a text back to some interested party or other. That, or she's typing a firmly worded email to someone. Like? Darcy.
- Melinda May has posed:
The moment Dean goes on the alert, May does as well. She doesn't know exactly yet what alerted him, but she knows it's not her -- he'd have called her out already if he had had the intention of doing so. Unlike the Hunter, though, she doesn't start carefully preparing for a fight. Instead, she takes a casual sip of water before getting up and approaching the waitress, asking her a seemingly innocent question before leading the woman toward the kitchen.
She shows the waitress her SHIELD badge as she ushers her through the doors, and they both disappear into the kitchen proper. A moment later, the short order cook's noisy food preparations abruptly stop and leave the restaurant almost eerily quiet.
