Jessica couldn't help chuckling at his comment. "Well, that's because you don't see a genocidal maniac when you look at me," she said simply, shrugging. Obviously she didn't actually take it as flirting, but she still smiled none the less. The truth was, Jessica just didn't really think about dating all that much, which was a bit odd for someone with the mental (and physical) age of a woman in their early-to-mid twenties. Plus, she just flat out didn't expect people to flirt with her in the first place. She was much too used to people looking at her with what pretty much amounted to disgust.
But at the second bit, she was a bit less jovial. Not that she was jovial in the first place, but she had been just about as close as she ever manages to get. "I might consider it, too," she started before shaking her head. "If I hadn't already jumped back and forth over that line several times before. I've got a feeling that if I jump the line again I'll officially be listed as one of the bad guys for all time. Working with HYDRA sometimes gives you that stigma, after all." And that was enough to get Jessica to finish off that first beer of hers.
