Yeah, I hope so, too.
[But Kate Bishop, the ever realist.
She never thought Teddy wouldn't just be coming in like this, but she also never thought Billy would develop feelings for someone else.]

Entirely. [ he says, waving his hand to her cast as if he's displaying the prize on a gameshow. ] All dressed up and ready to go.
[ Loki is way too proud of himself for comfort.
the cast is littered with the word "Loki," a bowl of noodles spouting two goats and a stick figure Thor in a chariot, bacon, and Ryan Gosling saying "Kate Bishop" with stars for "i"s all connected by a giant green rainbow. ]

Well.
[Kate observes the art carefully with the greatest amount of scrutiny she can apply to artwork that includes a stick figure Thor. The fact that there's a stick figure Thor makes her want to ask Loki about that, but she doesn't ask.
Strangely, they've never spoken about Thor. Then again, it's not like Kate ever mentions Susan. Of course, that's because she's never been that close to her sister.
Everyone knows of the turmoil between Thor and Loki.]
At least there's Ryan Gosling, [she finally says in a satisfied tone.]

[ better terms with Thor meant a lot of things, including both guilt and comfort. right now, it meant that there was an empty Thor-shaped hole in his heart. which meant that he got a space on Kate's cast. ]
Shining star and hero to us all. I thought he might brighten your day, simply by looking upon his divine, crudely drawn expression. The clouds of Asgardia part just to shine upon him.
[ almost as if he'd forgotten, he adds: ] Oh, I left a little place for Billy. [ see, thoughtful. ]

I have more than two friends, [she says in a slow voice.]
Which I think is absolutely unfair, for the record. I know how you feel as a fellow pet owner; I have a turtle back home. [Wally throws his arms around her dog and hugs him.] Ahhh, Usain Bolt...I miss you buddy.
You're a speedster with a turtle. You had to go full on ironic, huh?
[After a moment, she reaches for the bag to pull out some of that beef jerky.]

I don't go half on anything. [Wally pulls out the four bags of candy and pringles and sits down to eat with her. He came over to discuss something, after all, but he will feed your dog a pringle first ok]
Okay but this huge big league thing, like- I don't even know where to start. I've been trying to recruit people? But like, we're gonna have to at least have somewhere we can meet, just for starters.

Well, once upon a time I took one of my father's warehouses and refurnished it to make it into a headquarters. It isn't the best idea, but if we're going to do this without any resources, it might not be a place to start. [There is a pause, however.] But I could also ask Hank Pym if he wouldn't mind us using his center that he started months ago for this sort of thing. [Now that he's back, that is.] He's an Avenger back home, so he'd totally get the need.
Another one? Geez, how many Avengers do you have here? [And none of them have tried to make a group? Psh. .....what are you talking about leaguers being here for years be quiet]
A lot, [she says, understanding how it might seem.] But they're kind of fond of recruiting en masse. [Who isn't an Avenger anymore ... is the real question.]
You mean right when a meteor filled with evil aliens is headed for Earth? That kind of en masse recruiting? [Probably better than the League, anyway. They sit around a table and talk about a handful of people and figure out how to whittle it down to less than a handful of people. Becoming an endorsed superhero is harder than becoming a millionaire or a movie star.]
No, that's just when you get everyone in a room together. They tend to stock free alcohol for them, a thing I did not appreciate until I got here. [And although Tony does not drink, there is something about bringing everyone together and making sure there's camaraderie. Group Hero Shots as a Party.]
But that aside, it isn't anything as bad as that. I think it might be because we have more freedom.

Can we recruit people at underage keggers? I feel like that would really be helpful in getting to know someone better. No inhibitions. [Seriously, you can tell if a guy is a dick real quick if he's drunk. ...or maybe everyone is a dick when drunk. Okay, problem with this plan.]
While I have been party to throwing underage keggers already, I'm not sure if what we want is underage keggers to be our recruiting strategy. [Free alcohol isn't really going to inspire anyone to be heroic.]
