Everything is changing…
Don't own the S.H.I.E.L.D. or the characters of Marvel Comics, but happy to play in their backyard.
"The secret is out…"
-Skye, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Twelve Minutes
"Come on Ward, twelve more minutes." Skye's head was buried deep in her pillow.
"Fine that will be 180 pushups."
"What you hanging with Fitz and Simmons? That was fast." Her eye peaked out over the pillow. Twelve times twelve is easy, 144. But twelve times fifteen, who gets that in a split second.
"Its just multiplication, not a Fast Fourier Transform."
Skye sat up and looked at him. Had he gone to the dark side? She knew what an FFT was but for him to know was a bit curious. "What do you know about FFTs?"
Now Ward was caught off guard. He's just heard Fitzsimmons talking about it the other day. And well it sounded funny. But if she had already got an acronym for it, then it meant he had to get out of this. He couldn't let her know that her SO did not know something she did. She was supposed to be learning from him. Now he knew that if came to her specialty, anything with computers or phones that was another story. But then if Fitzsimmons was talking about it while looking at one of their displays, maybe it was something she would already know.
He finally arrived at an out, "Oh, I just heard the guys talking about it. They had an equation displayed and they were pointing at one of the variables. The equation had some simple math. They were going for their calculators. I just spoke up and gave them the answer."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I've been good with simple math since I was a kid. It got me started. What about you? What got you started in computers?"
"What? Do you really want to know?"
Suddenly realizing she was still trying to get out of the workout, "Sure I do. You can tell me over your pushups." He smiled.
She wasn't as happy.
