This one's an okay one. Tomorrow's probably a favorite of mine. This last week, a lot of fun things will happen!

"What do you think you'd be if you weren't a part of SHIELD?" Skye asked as she entered the lab.
Leo set his current project to the side, flexing his sore fingers. He'd been in the cast for two weeks, and it was driving him crazy. Leo had already broken his arm when he was younger, and the time spent wearing that cast had driven him stir-crazy. His poor parents could barely contain his hyperactivity that resulted from him being kept cooped up at home so long with nothing to do.
"What's your reason for the question?" he said, coming around the side of the lab table.
Skye shrugged. "Dunno, just curious," she answered, crossing her arms in front of her chest. "Also I overheard Simmons and Ward talking next door in her bunk, and then I left when I realized what it was."
"What do you-ohhhh," Leo nodded as it hit him. "Um, so what I'd be if I wasn't with SHIELD?"
"Yep."
"Probably would have been a professor at a university, maybe working as a scientist for a government organization like SHIELD," he shrugged. "How about you?"
"What I was doing before SHIELD," Skye grinned at him. "Hacking, maybe getting a job at a café. Not as much as I'd be doing now though."
"You know when I think about it," Leo paused. "if I hadn't gone to Sci-Tech when SHIELD invited me, I would have never met Simmons at all. I never would have gone onto the team, and I never would have met you. Which would stink."
Skye smiled. "SHIELD turned out to be a pretty good thing, huh?"
"Yeah," he agreed, feeling the warmth of her smile on his soul. "It really did."
