"SEE? LITTLE NEEDLE,"

Valerie flashed a smile at Bruce, who looked very unsure of the instrument she was holding.

"Just a little pinch,"

"That does not look like a little pinch to me."

"I'm not wearing my glasses today, can you read that poster for me?"

"Always sanitize--ow!"

"All done," Valerie grinned, pulling the needle from his arm. "Come on, Bruce, I don't even wear glasses."

"That's just cold."

"Next!" She happily sang.

Steve walked in nonchalantly, raising his eyebrow at Bruce, who was cradling his arm like he had just been shot.

"Good morning," He gruffly said.

"Bad night?" She asked, flicking a new syringe.

"Is it that obvious?"

"You've got designer bags under your eyes, Rogers."

He chuckled. "Just stressed about everything going on, is all."

"Well, it always helps to talk about it. Is that what you and uh, Bucky, were speaking about last night?"

He gave her a pointed look. "I can't condone eavesdropping,"

"I wasn't eavesdropping. If I was, I wouldn't be asking what you were talking about,"

"Why don't you ask him?"

She inserted the syringe, effortlessly administering the serum as Steve didn't so much as flinch. She blew raspberries as she took it out.

"We're not really speaking much,"

"I'm sorry to hear that,"

"Meh," She squeaked. "Next!"

Steve simply laughed as he stood up and exited the room. In walked Vision, earning a 'are you kidding' look from Valerie.

"Is this a joke, Vis?"

"Wanda thought it would be quite funny,"

Wanda came in, giggling. "Thought you could use a laugh."

"Thank you, Wanda," She smiled.

She administered the serum to almost every teammate, only having a few to finish up.

"Next!" She called, turning to see who was standing there.

She quickly smiled, holding her hand out. "Hi, we didn't get a chance to speak last night. I'm Valerie,"

"I am T'Challa," He bowed his head slightly. "Forgive me for not sticking around last night, I came quite a long way,"

She waved it off. "Take a seat, I'll grab a fresh syringe."

"I am to train you today," He spoke.

"Oh, um, listen, I really don't think that's--"

"Stark told me to train you. Train you, I shall."
