Synopsis: Natasha and I talk about a super great mission
Cast of Characters: Deadpool, Black Widow (Romanoff)




Deadpool has posed:
    The text message came in from Wade it's usual fanfare of pictures of eggplants, smiling emojis, heart-eye emojis, and an elephant. Like ya do.

<< I have a mission! Would you like to join my super secret squirrel squad? Heroic stuff. Scout's honor! >>

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
    Natasha is on a day off, for once. She doesn't even have monitor duty. She has a thousand other things she should be doing but instead, she's here in the den watching a movie.

When the text comes in, she picks up the phone and unlocks the screen. Seeing the sources, and the emojis, she can't help smiling slightly as she shakes her head. She texts back, without emojis or abbreviations.

    << Willing to discuss but I've heard that before. And if you call me squirrel again, I'll shoot you. >>

Deadpool has posed:
The reply is instant, Wade must be actively using his phone.

<<Let's meet! Taco Tuesday! How about Steve's room?>>

And then, following that: <<Now the temptation is great to call you that. Would Possum glean maybe a spanking?>> The onslaught of emojis with that one is unusually cheerful, with many hearts.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
<< I don't think Steve would appreciate me wandering into his room. I'm in the Den. Unless you want to meet off Avengers property. Does Tony even have you in the security system? >>

Natasha is probably going to regret asking that question. She hopes he might be.

Deadpool has posed:
<<I've loopholed the - you know what, I can teleport, I'm so much better at talking than typing,>> Types the mercenary.

A little bit later, there's some sudden motion: the mercenary ran, top speed, past the Den's door off down the hallway. Then there's a pause, and he saunters back to the doorway, and leans a shoulder on the doorframe casually, legs crossing at the ankle, and a hand on his hip.

"Heeeeey," Wade Fonzies.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
Good news, he's in the system since no KillerBots are responding and no shrieking alarms are going off.

Bad news, where the heck did he teleport into that he ran past the den the first time.

"Hello, Wade. Good to see you." She is looking over at him from her spot on the couch, one hand holding the remote. The other isn't visible and seems to be in the seat cushions.

Deadpool has posed:
Could be on a gun. Wade can only dream.

Wade finger-wavies at her and approaches in a relaxed stroll to the couch. And then spins on a heel and dumps himself onto it next to her, with a clear intent to put his head probably on her shoulder or lap, if he gets his way, with legs up over the far couch's arm. It's a disarming posture, he isn't aggressive in the least. Not that that can't change in a blink.

"I was saying something about holes," he says. "Yeah. Loopholed. Like, the security doesn't let me IN by choice, but it also doesn't flip out."

"So I think I'm like, expired, but not actively an enemy. Story of my life, isn't it," Wade laments, suddenly serious.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
As he settles on the couch, her hand comes out from under the cushions. No gun. She left it in there for now. But it's always handy.

"I doubt you're expired or the system would still try to kill you. Tony is...vigilant." She leaves it at that. If he ended up with his head on her lap, she automatically places a hand on the top if his head and pets downwards once. Habit. She stops when she realizes she's doing it and lets her hand fall back to her side.

"What information did you have to share?"

Deadpool has posed:
The pet gets his own automatic response, which his to draw one hand up onto her knee, unless she moves her leg away. He fiddles with the fingers, his mind jumping topics in a strobe of thought. Natasha may be familiar with this common problem of his, when he needs to focus but things are just not the best. A little patience can win out, though.

"So okay, I've got a job. It's not really paid in money though, so there's no split there," Wade explains, squinting in his mask. "But I got a spot to hit to get some data on Sentinel thingies, save lives or stuff like that with it. Factory is making the robots all secret-like." Wade pauses, huffs, "So we'd be heroic and all. I'm proud of me too."

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
That gets a hint of a smirk from Natasha. "You should be. Good to see you taking jobs that are more on the hero side of the fence." Not that she ever judged his other jobs. She tends to get those kinds of assignments, just with a SHIELD stamp of approval.

She does sober a bit as she considers. "Sentinels. We had some information about them recently. Mutant hunting giant robots. Any information would be very welcome. You want me to go in with you for intel or...?"

Deadpool has posed:
"Supergreen!" Wade agrees, rolling over onto his back, head still on her lap, his body sort of sprawled out in the opposite of grace. "Yeah. I can go myself, but I was like, heroic missions have teams, and I do not have a team," Wade says, using one finger at the ceiling to jab the point home. His logic is possibly sound. Or not. It's something, at least.

"And you are great at re-appropriating data. I am good at being noisy and distracting and maybe kidnapping a scientist. I was thinking of bringing Logan too. So he can snikt-snikt."

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
"I can think of no one better for snikt-snikt," Natasha says with a bit of a soft laugh. "Really, it depends on what we are going in for. Logan can do stealthy too but he'd be helpful with the distraction side of things with his healing factor."

She considers a moment. "So we are going in to steal data and maybe the scientist behind it? Or is there something more to it?"

Deadpool has posed:
"It's the Xmen that want this stuff, something about end-times robots-murdering-everyone blah blah, Terminators, sent back to our time to stop things, I don't even know," Wade explains, voice suddenly very quiet, though still mostly in a stage whisper from the vicinity of her lap. "And they want pieces of robot too, but the things are like--" Wade pauses, spreads his arms out all the way as if showing a huge fish he caught. "Like eighty times bigger than this. Three stories. So I do not think they will fit in my bag. But if there is a tiny one, or dismembered parts, then totally that. But I think there will be lots there. It will be /fun/."

Mission mission stuff, but FUN is the important point, to Wade, on this, clearly.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
It often is.

Natasha is more worried about the details, the tactical side. Unlike her two potential teammates, she doesn't heal from every kind of damage done to her.

"So pretty much get anything and everything we can on the machines as well as the source behind them. I likely could hack their systems and get information that way." She looks at the tv screen, the movie still running although she hasn't paid the slightest bit of attention to it since his arrival. It's just there. "I'll need all the information you have on the base and location so I can scout things out."

Deadpool has posed:
"Logan MIGHT not say yes," Wade comments, squinting a little, "So it just might be us. But not like a date. I mean. I guess I can bring dinner. And sure! I have lots of info: location, that stuff. And a window of when we're going, because a bunch of them will be off handling this prisoner transfer. So, info. If you're in. Otherwise it'll be just for the secret sq---squid squad. Not squirrels. I remember."

The innocent look would be improved by a halo, but Deadpool lacks one presently. He turns his head to look over at the movie, trying to decipher what it is she's watching.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
The movie seems to star Harrison Ford, playing a character named Henry. He seems to be recovering and trying to relearn his life by the actions happening on screen.

"The prisoner transfer is what I'd heard about. I could maybe get inside, do some information collecting before the transfer. Then we can time the attack and extraction to coincide with the other?"

Deadpool has posed:
Wade stares at the movie a little bit but loses interest quickly, instead more focused on the mission for once. For the moment. "Before? Oh, okay. Then if you're captured, I can white knight on in and save you as part of the mission also. But don't get captured. Not that you would. I mean, unless you wanted to be," he adds, winking. Sometimes that's the secret squid plan, after all: getting caught but not.

"So, sure. Info for yoooou. And then we'll time the extraction with the transfer. I'd tie this in a bow if I had a bow." A pause. "I might." Wade starts to fish in his pockets, sitting up to do so.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
"I think we're okay without the bow," Natasha says with a bit of a smirk but she doesn't try to stop him from sitting up if he chooses to do so.

"And I won't get caught. Unless I want to. Sometimes the best interrogations are done when they think you're caught."

Deadpool has posed:
"Awwwwww," Deadpool says. He came up with a bow: it's shiny and glossy blue with bright silver edges. He leans back down onto her lap and sticks the bow to his upper left temple on his mask. The smile his mask shows doesn't do the real smile justice, but perhaps Natasha can imagine what it must be on his actual features. Shudder-worthy maybe, but also genuine.

"Okay. Let's do it! Oh. Thing." He hands over the data drive.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
"You didn't think to lead with that?" Natasha asks with a laugh as she takes the drive. She'll have to look at it when her lap isn't occupied.

"The blue is a lovely color." She doesn't add it sort of clashes with the rest of his outfit because that might hurt his feelings and she'd rather not do that to him.

Deadpool has posed:
Don't worry, he can hurt his own feelings. "Distracts from the rest of me," Wade teases in return. And then waggles both hands upwards in a helpless 'turtle stuck on back' manner, "I can't be expected to do things in order. Foreplay at the end? Fuck it, both times. Or twice."

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
That gets a true laugh from Natasha. As he does his flailing movement, she puts her hands under his shoulders and helps to push him up to a sitting position. Did she need to? No, she knows he could've gotten up on his own but she's okay with humoring him sometimes. She does give him a light swat on his arm once he's upright. "And don't do that self deprecating stuff around me. You know I don't agree with it."

Deadpool has posed:
"Maybe you're wrong," Wade teases, but it isn't dark in tone. Suddenly music blares out of Wade's chest area. "Together Forever, and never to partLiu (talk)" sings the ringtoned Rick Astley loudly. Wade startles, and pats down his pockets there for the phone.

"Together forever, we two~~" He draws it out, in all its Lisa Frank stickered glory. There's a bright rainbow dolphin depicted on the teal case. "It's Steeeeeeve," Wade shares with Natasha, tapping accept. "Hiiiiii!" Wade chimes. And then pauses. And listens. And cocks his head.

"I think his tight ass called me," Wade observes.

"You are a special snowflake, America ass, but I am busy," Wade tells the phone. "Anything you want to tell Steve's butt?" he asks Nat, offering the phone over.

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
The song has her blinking but when he explains who--or what--it is, Natasha has to use all her willpower not to burst out laughing right there. "Are you saying you just got butt dialed by Captain America?"

She does accept the phone but mainly to see what he set for the picture and listed the name as in his contacts.

Deadpool has posed:
It isn't terribly listed overall, really, it's 'Oh Captain, my CAPTAIN' with an eggplant, and has a terrible selfie of a resistant Captain America (eyes closed, partial blink) with Wade in the foreground. Wade rolls to his belly on the couch with a twisting lunge of body, setting his fingers against her near-thigh, looking up at her, allowing her to do what she wishes with the phone.

There's some distant sound of Steve talking to somebody, one word in ten being distinct, and then something about a dog.

"Was that a fart?" Deadpool needs to know, unable to hear as well, since she has the phone. "it /is/ taco Tuesday."

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
"No, it was not. He seems to be talking to someone." Natasha clicks the off button, eyeballing the selfie and shaking her head a bit before returning the phone to Wade.

"Later I'm sure he'll see he butt dialed and be horrified. Be sure you make up some story about what he said, even if we couldn't hear it."

Deadpool has posed:
"Okay. Should we agree on what it was, so that our story is consistent when he asks both of us?" Wade asks, suddenly DEAD SERIOUS, sitting up, and staring at her as if this were vitally important to both of their lives going forward. "I'm thinking he told someone he can't stop thinking of me almost-naked in the shower, that it's burned into his soul."

Black Widow (Romanoff) has posed:
"Well, he'd have to have seen you naked in the shower before he would buy that one," Natasha returns, a husky chuckle as she shakes her head.

Then it sinks in.

Her expression goes serious and she snaps her attention on Wade just as fully as he had to her a moment before. "He's seen you naked in the shower? Wade! What the hell?"

Deadpool has posed:
"Noooooooooo," Wade says petulantly, like a child being told to go take out the trash. Gosh, mom.

"I wasn't naked," he says, rolling off the couch to his feet.

"I had a mask."
