Elle sat across from Coulson in his office, on the Bus at the Playground, and took the glass he slid across to her. Not that he would remember, but she had just finished using her siren stone, to enchant the team, to remember differently. She couldn't have them deter from the path she needed them on, and she knew Coulson had been wavering. As far as they were all aware now, Skye was alone in the Kree City, when the mist activated, Tripp had 'fallen' and knocked himself out which was why he couldn't remember before they all went and found Skye.
'You know she'll be ok Phil..'.. Elle stretched her legs outs... 'This is one event we couldn't change for her, but at least Tripp was safe and Raina wasn't there..'
'I just worry about them all..'.. He sat forward and shrugged off his jacket, before loosening his tie.
'That's why you're a great director..'.. She pointed at him, still holding her glass... 'You actually care. Look, I know it will be hard for her, but Skye is strong, resilient, this is just a bump in her journey, she's going to be just fine..'
'Yeah..'.. Coulson sighed... 'The files on Skyes new power, any chance Fitz and Simmons could have them? Just to help get her along quicker..'
'Sure. It's their files anyway. Lark, send them across to Fitz and Simmons..'.. Elle sipped her drink.
'Of course Sergeant..'..
'Not every event can be changed, sometimes it's a win, sometimes it's a loss..'.. Elles arms rested on the sides of her chair, swirling her glass.
'Why do I get the feeling, you're not talking about this one?..'.. He rested his arms on the desk, watching her.
'I'll be telling the Avengers soon, and I still need to figure out how to get what I need, from space..'.. Elle sighed heavily... 'I need to travel to other worlds, but have no idea how to navigate there..'
'Asgard?..'... He asked.
'No, been to Asgard, getting there is easy. No, it's two other worlds that are further away..'.. Elle drained her glass... 'Let's just say, it's a race to get there first. And if it ain't me, well..'.. She shook her head and stood.
'How long until that happens?..'.. Coulson stood with her, coming around to perch on the side of his desk.
'We got time, but I want to get there as soon as possible. If I can get what is needed, I can end this before it even begins..'.. She set her glass down on his desk.
'How are you doing, be honest..'.. He kept watching her and she shrugged.
'Terrified..'.. She looked at him... 'In the next few weeks, I got to tell Jaces father about him, and why I kept them apart for so long. That scares me the most, more than telling the team I'm from the future..'.. She huffed a smile.
'I hope he understands, and if he doesn't, well, I'm sure Loki will have something to say about it. He's protective over you and Jace..'... Coulson smiled a little... 'But I hope he doesn't slip back into his old ways..'
