Oh, am I interrupting something?

*Accepts the bottle and takes a swig.*
Don't most people, I don't know, drink alcohol in a bar rather than a bookstore?

Yes. But I don't want to be at the bar.

*Sits down beside her and returns the bottle.*
Too much fighting over there lately, or is something else up?

Something else. Me, to be exact. I'm insane.

Oh. I don't know.
I'm pretty crazy. Or, at least, I feel crazy.

Why, because you work with Tony all day?

Did something happen between you and Tony?

Not as far as he's concerned.
*Pulls her knees up to her chest.*
Basically: I walked in on a tender moment between Janet and Tony. I was angry with Tony after the whole Injustice International/Lex Luthor ordeal, just like very one else. I quit the Avengers! But I was one of the first to put that behind me; I was his running mate! I've been here day in and day out working hard and trying my best for SHIELD, The Initiative, and for him.
And then Janet randomly re-appears and is just the Golden Child. At first I thought I was so angry because I had... feelings. But I've thought about it now and mostly I'm angry because I feel I've been completely overlooked. My efforts, my work, everything!
*Sighs heavily.*
I'm not making sense. I'm a little drunk.

I'm a bit confused here, Natalia. Aren't you seeing someone right now? Okay, I guess that's not the most important thing. What you should probably ask yourself is why Tony always keeps you close. One thing I'm sure you know about him by now is that he only surrounds himself with the people he thinks are the best. You being there with him, that's him telling you that you're valued, you know?

Yeah, I get what you're saying. But I feel like I can only take so much unspoken 'worth'.
Or rather... I don't know.
And I am happy with James. Very. Just.
*Groans in frustration.*
I'm just crazy. That's it.

Well, Natalia, that's probably something you should really talk to Tony about. I don't think he looks at you and Janet the same way.
*Leans over to give her a hug and a handgun falls out of his jacket.*
Oh, crap.
