Pepper had gotten to Ellis Island to oversee the set up for the party at 7AM. The caterers arrived an hour later. Then she began to direct the whole mess as if she were choreographing a ballet. Anyone who has seen her at work with something like this can't help but step back and watch in awe.

By the time 3PM rolled around and the first guests began to arrive everything was set up. There were no less than three dance floors. One with a band to play Big Band/1940s music. One with a standard DJ for the younger crowd. And one with a piano bar for a more traditional dancing and talking atmosphere. There was a dining area with two full bars, all manner of food and drink and tables of various size for groups or couples. There was a VIP section for the Avengers and their extended friends and relatives.

Pepper was currently wandering around greeting people and welcoming them.

[ooc: Per Gwen this will go on all month long so tag in willy nilly!]

Bobbi and Nick

Back in the day, SHIELD spent a lot of money and time in training the female agents in the art of dressing to kill while R&D created the weapons to complete the image. Bobbi became one of the best.

"If Tony had planned this there'd be strippers," Bobbi commented with a grin then took another sip of her drink.

"So you clean up pretty well," she threw out there. "Proves even an old man can look sharp." Bobbi grinned.

	"Old men have years of experience behind them," Nick pointed out with a wry grin. "I've had the luxury of growing up before social media. My faux pas have never been publicized, so it's easy for me to attain this level of sharpness." "And since I'm going to die soon, why waste that time on poor clothing choices?"

	Bobbi gave a small snort. "Oh yeah. You're going to die soon. Gee, dad. Wanna tell me where you hid your will so we're all ready for when you kick?" Bobbi batted her baby blues at Nick then chuckled. "You'll outlive us all and still look damn hot doing it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nick chuckled as well. "One of my greatest hopes is that I look as dapper in death as I do in life." Finishing his drink, he tapped his empty cup on the counter. "Is it wrong that I'm genuinely surprised no super villains have crashed this yet?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Is it really surprise, or disappointment?" Bobbi asked before she took another drink. Her eyes stayed solidly on Fury figuring that question might get to him. If not that, then her follow up would. "Because now you have to fraternize with the underlings." She smirked, and with that lipstick it looked damn good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nick was about to answer before Bobbi snuck in her second part.

Was Bobbi really his underling? The lines were getting more and more blurry as they worked together so closely, and in times, he was starting to rely on her more as a right hand person than a subordinate.

"I was thinking of giving you a promotion," he replied, evading her comment entirely. "You're wasted as an agent. You should have your own name. Bobbi."

	That caught her off guard. Bobbi almost choked on her drink, but that was the only indication of her surprise that showed. She looked at Fury with open curiosity, however. "And what name do you have in mind, director?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Bobbi and Nick seeswithboth 2018-07-20 05:23 pm UTC (link)
	He gave her a cool look, slight smile on his face. "Why not co-director?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Bobbi and Nick biology_degree 2018-07-21 12:29 am UTC (link)
	Not a whole lot surprised Bobbi. Nick had just managed it. She stared at him solidly for more than a few heartbeats, trying to figure out what the punchline was. She was definitely no Maria Hill. Bobbi didn't even want to try, but apparently Fury saw something he liked if he was offering her Hill's position. "Uh," she said cleverly. "Sure." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Excellent. Then your first task is recruiting." Nick was getting too old for this shit, and he had zero desire to do al the research behind it, not if they were all going to defect to the Avengers anyways. "I trust you can handle that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Bobbi and Nick biology_degree 2018-07-21 12:41 am UTC (link)
	Bobbi finally got her head back on and smirked as she took a drink. A drink she needed after that. "Yeah, I can handle that," she said with a sly smirk and dancing eyes. She already had a few faces in mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I knew you would." Hearing the band cue a song, and deciding this night could use another surprise, he extended a nahd. "Care to join me in a dance, Bobbi?" Using her name seemed strange yet appropriate. "This old man has some moves." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Bobbi and Nick biology_degree 2018-07-21 01:10 am UTC (link)
	Whoa! Really? Finally! Bobbi didn't hesitate to put her drink down, take that offered hand as she slid from her chair. "C'mon, old man. Wow me." Did she step into Nick's personal space a bit more than was necessary? She sure did! (Reply to this) (Parent)
