IC Inbox (v1.0)

You've reached Dr. John Watson. Please leave a message.

I don't like the idea of a couple of kids getting caught in the cross-fire. They should be the priority for you. I still don't even know if I'll be able to get the Joker to come. You and Clint should be together to protect them if you run into him by accident.

Do you really think I'm going to drag children into this?

No. I don't. Which is why I'll handle this particular encounter that I'm setting up. I'll give you the location when I've got it, and I'd like you and Clint on stand-by nearby if it goes poorly. I'd just like both of you with those kids when we don't know where the Joker is.

We'll take care of them. I'm stating, officially, that I think this is a terrible idea and you shouldn't do it, and I'd better not see your name on the next obituary, but I don't have much hope of dissuading you.

Your opinion has been officially filed away in the archives, for the record. I know how to fight, Nat. And I'm not wholly convinced he'll be turning up, anyway.

You're not sure, but there's a chance. You're at a disadvantage.

That's nothing new. I'll manage.

You're stubborn enough to rival most of the Avengers I know.

[Compliment?]

I'd better not see your name on the next obituary.

[That's three for three who have said he's like the Avengers. Bloody hell.]

I'm really starting to thing that's not a compliment. I'll do my best to stay out of them. Building 63 on House's map. That's where I'm meeting him. Be on stand-by, yeah? I'll give you a call in the morning if it's all clear.
