Ever since the battle of New York the rest of the team had been trying to find out what had happened in Budapest. Everyone had there own way of trying to get the assassins to speak. Steve would quietly inquire about the subject every once and a while. Thor would mention it whenever Midgard geography came up by saying things like, "And is this Midgard city near the one of Budapest?" Bruce rarely brought the subject up one his own, he stuck mainly to curious glances. Tony on the other hand, well Tony was a whole different story.
Tony moved heaven and earth trying to find out what happened in Budapest. He spent hours looking online trying to find anything suspicious and even hacked into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s data base for any mention of the topic. That resulted in a very angry phone call from Director Fury. After being grounded from S.H.I.E.L.D's science faculties for 3 weeks, Tony took a more verbal approach. Meaning he nagged and nagged and nagged. Constantly. Pepper tried to stop it after about a week, but ultimately failed.
Clint and Natasha handled it fairly well. Most of the time they would only smirk and glance at each other when Steve, Thor, or Bruce brought it up. However there was only so much they could take. After about a month of Tony's nagging, a knife wielding Natasha quickly put an end to it. Things quieted down after the knife incident. Budapest was mentioned here or there, but everyone had simply accepted the fact that they would probably never know what happened. That was not the case though. It all changed one day, the day Clint almost died.
