✉ Fitz contacted me yesterday.
✉ As per his request, Ward is no longer required not to talk to him.
✉ I will leave it up to the two of you whether to tell him the rule no longer applies.
✉ But I am rather surprised to find out that Ward had apparently broken the rule
several times, and nobody informed me.
✉ I hope neither of you were aware of it either.
[ extra Text Messages to Clint Barton sent before the party ]✉ Have you figured out what to do about a cake yet?
✉ I've got the pasta salad chilling.
✉ And I picked up a bottle of his favorite liquor while I was out this afternoon.
✉ Need me to grab anything else before tonight?
