who: Hill and Castle where&when: The Dispatch, around 1600 hours warnings: Frank has a dirty mouth, sometimes.
So far, Frank had been treated to mediocre surprises, some pleasant, some annoying. But this- discovering someone here, of all places, that he'd known over two decades ago, someone he had cared about a great deal, an actual friend - this was a great surprise.
Frank didn't have friends anymore. He hoped he remembered how to be a decent person, but then a lot of time had passed by since they'd last seen each other. Christ, he couldn't even remember if he'd said goodbye to her properly.
Maria Hill. He'd jokingly called her his wife-away-from-home several times, his other Maria, but it had only been a joke. Frank had respected her then, he respected her now.
He arrived at The Dispatch and looked around to see if he recognised anyone. Coffee, oh, coffee. He needed some. He'd feel a lot more human then.
