as soon as jia asks , benji looks to the now basically here agents , then viv , uncertainty gripping him . something tells him no matter how far jia would have gotten them if they did teleport , they’d be caught again soon . & if they fight , which they could , & lose , which they might , they’d practically be detained , in some sort of trouble . but at the same time , going to shield could be risky . hard to explain who they are , why they’re here .
viv’s answer brings a moment of panic , sure eyes widened . “ i don’t know how you’re going to explain how & why , or what happens if you do have them help . you know , if it changes something major . ” one more glance out the window , then the girls , then nods his head . “ okay , fine , whatever . i’ll meet them first . i don’t trust jia to . come on . ”
he turns , quick paced toward the back , hands rubbing together , trying to will them to feel less clammy , not so nervous . they were going to be fine . ( at least , he hoped . ) he opens the plane , the ramp coming down , & he gives one look over his shoulder toward the girls as he raises his hands up , forcing a smile . “ we come in peace ? ” / @jchncn
SHIELD of old had not believed them . it probably could have gone worse as far as jia can tell , throwing a dirty look towards morse , they could have SHOT him . maybe that would have been ＢＥＴＴＥＲ . the fact is that agents had suspiciously thrown them into one of those old fashioned containment units that wouldn’t be hard to get out of and bundled them all them to a shield base . jia is half sure this is THE PLAYGROUND that was her mothers home for a long time judging by the fact they’ve been handcuffed and shoved into chairs in the directors office .
“ don’t know about you two but i’ve had WARMER welcomes ” not quite joking - she’s had better company from hard line anti - inhumans . at least she got to kick their ass later , what’s she meant to do HERE ? she can’t kick not - a - robot - yet coulson’s ass ! the plane ride over had given them just enough time , thankfully , to at least cobble together some kinda plan going forward . MAY would berate them all for how little of a plan it is : they barely decided on NOT admitting who they are immediately .
they haven’t had a group discussion on whether she should come clean about her powers / haven’t even figured out where the hell ward got to before they were willingly kidnapped . a few hours and they’ve already gotten ＳＥＰＥＲＡＴＥＤ . she bumps alys shoulder with her own “ wanna take the lead on this ? seeing as someone else used a cliche ” not unfair at all “ you know , we’re pretty close to seeing the whole old guard , so WHO do you think was hot before they got old . ” // @ftzsimmcns
