	Hill's eyes were narrowed as she tapped her foot impatiently. She took Tinley's silence to mean that the agent was simply ashamed and remorseful of her actions - certainly a better reaction than yelling and arguing. Hill [i]hated[/i] it when agents tried to shout their way out of situations, finding it much better if they just accepted the consequences of their actions and moved on. 

	Doctor Strange finished his protective warding and sigils, rendering them invisible to the Black Order's sensors - at least for now. He emerged from his trance and gently flew down from his position high up in the air, landing lightly in front of Director Hill. [color=53A981]"Maria,"[/color] he greeted.

	[color=#76D7C4]"Stephen,"[/color] she responded in turn. 

	[color=53A981]"You're looking well."[/color]

	[color=#76D7C4]"... Thanks. This is awkward, isn't it?"[/color] 

	[color=53A981]"I suppose it's not every day your ex boyfriend shows up at your place of business,"[/color] he agreed. [hr][hr][center][h3][b][color=f6989d]Bonnie Chase[/color][/b][/h3][img]https://i.postimg.cc/8k67nDb4/image.png[/img][hr][hr][b][color=f6989d]Location:[/color][/b] Virology Lab
[b][color=f6989d]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A [/center][hr]	Jemma Simmons retreated farther into the virology lab, carefully storing the vial of Cass' blood. While they were going to use it to develop a cure with the help of Doctor Strange, she didn't want to risk anyone knocking it over or anything of the sort until he arrived. Besides, there was plenty of preparatory work they would have to complete before they could begin to use the blood samples they had acquired. Cass would be needed to stay near the Hub essentially until the cure was completed as well, just in case they required further samples. 

	Bonnie didn't even get a second to rest on her laurels after safely drawing Cass' blood. Something must have gone horribly wrong with Matt's powers - she had a lingering suspicion that perhaps Oliver was to blame, as Matt underwent secondary terrigenesis earlier that day - as Cass was no longer breathing. Her heart had stopped. Her best friend was about to [i]die[/i] right in front of her. She had barely gotten a chance to begin to look for a crash cart when Sparky stumbled out of her stretcher, shocked Cass back to life, and then collapsed in Flynn's arms. 

	She agreed with Flynn completely - people needed to stop dying [i]now[/i]. [color=f6989d]"Thank goodness you're okay, Cass,"[/color] Bonnie said, wiping a few tears that threatened to spill from her eyes. [color=f6989d]"I might've pulled a Novikova if we lost you."[/color] Bonnie then turned, hearing Oliver explain that Director Hill needed to see Cass. It must have been serious if Hill wanted to talk to her, especially since Flynn had said that Hill was chewing out Tinley. [color=f6989d]"Urgh... Cass, you really ought to rest and let us observe you, but I know you, so go on and speak to Hill. We've got a wheelchair. Matt can go with you."[/color] 

	Bonnie hurried across the room, grabbing a wheelchair and she wheeled it on over. [hr][hr][center][h3][b][color=add3ff]Dominika Novikova[/color][/b][/h3][img]https://i.postimg.cc/mDbnCQgp/image.png[/img][hr][hr][b][color=add3ff]Location:[/color][/b] Virology Lab
[b][color=add3ff]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A [/center][hr]	As the door opened, Novikova beamed and returned her wife's hug. Maria was in a protective suit which made it difficult for Novikova to show as much affection as she would have liked. [color=add3ff]"You wouldn't believe what Pym had me and Wanda do - he made an artificial atmosphere for the quarantine room and shut the two of us up in it... Being trapped with the Scarlet Witch was [i]not[/i] what I signed up for,"[/color] she complained. Unlike the mutants at S.H.I.E.L.D., Novikova didn't have any protective gear on. She was lucky, not having developed any symptoms of M-Pox yet. 

	She entered the virology lab, seeing how busy and crowded it was. Her mouth shifted into a frown as she saw the doctor responsible for Phase Three inside the conference room. In fact, Novikova wasn't really happy to see most of the people here. She was still bitter over being fired from S.H.I.E.L.D., when as far as she was concerned her only crime was caring too much about her best friend to let Sparky die in the Quantum Realm. [color=add3ff]"Sparks? You look like hell, if it was frozen over and then reheated in the microwave like a freezer burned burrito,"[/color] she told her best friend bluntly. 

	Goose was purring and sitting on the stretcher with Sparky. Novikova then turned her gaze, looking at Oliver for a moment and her face paled, realizing something. It was a blurry memory, mostly due to the copious amounts of vodka she had consumed that night, but she couldn't deny it anymore. And with what Maria had told her on the phone about some alien named Thanos... [color=add3ff]"I know it's not my job anymore, but keeping Thanos' son in the virology lab might not be a genius move."[/color]

	Bonnie stopped what she was doing. [color=f6989d]"What... Oh... Oh god, no..."[/color] She was staring at Oliver now. It made sense. He was inhuman. He was from Cardiff. He was born on the same day at the same hospital that records indicated Thane had been.
