SHIELD? Well that's interesting. Pretty sure we do share some kind of dream space, but maybe there's multiple versions of it. Also that's hysterical because it's exactly what I would have done, too. Just be all 'well, you've got skills. Respect- come work for me. Or you know, you could go to jail, whatever works for you.'
The Grim Reaper was like 'oh heck no, not THIS bastard, hell isn't ready'.
