I KNOW SHE KNOWS THAT I'M NOT FOND OF ASKING
TRUE OR FALSE, IT MAY BE
SHE'S STILL OUT TO GET ME
--naive // the kooks
One month after Battle of New York, Leila is still settling back into her life when she's given an assignment by Fury: convince Steve Rogers to allow SHIELD to test him to recreate the super-soldier serum. This turns out to be Fury's way of giving her an in for her real mission: convince Steve Rogers to join SHIELD as a special agent.
Leila's no stranger to the art of subtle persuasion, but Steve Rogers is a hard nut to crack, and seems to catch every verbal sleight of hand she performs. It turns out, the quickest way to earn his trust is honesty--a different subtle art to which Leila is, actually, a stranger.
Oh, and also, there's a bomb crisis involved, because of course there is.
