Two Zombies Walk onto a Space Station
It had been a long time since she had seen the others. Jemma didnât know fully how long, because much of it she spent sedated, and much of it she spent dead. So it felt like years and no time at all. She hadnât asked Daisy how long it had been for them. It seemed like something she should want to know, but asking- well she just didnât. It didnât feel like it mattered to do so. What if it had been months? What if it had been hours? What did it matter? It didnât change where they were now.
She heard them greeting Daisy. Happy voices, familiar voices. She was dead in their minds. Maybe she should stay that way, just back away, let them have their moment and disappear somewhere within the lighthouse. Sheâd have to knock out Fitz though, he was holding her arm and walking her to the doorway behind which the others were and while she could think just leaving would be okay, hurting him to do so? She felt less sure about that being an acceptable method of avoiding this moment. He was already shot after all.Â
Thatâs why she got walked in in front of Coulson, Elena, and Mack. Fitz arrived in the future- her back from the dead. She couldnât begin to guess what they might be thinking now.Â
