Summary
"What the hell are we waiting for?"It wasn't a rhetorical question. There was a lot standing between Coulson and May that went unspoken.
Note
This is a two-parter from Coulson’s and May’s POV following Coulson’s alternate dimension experience. What is it that changed between from the time he disappeared to when he returned? More importantly, why did it take so long?The title is borrowed from “Every Breaking Wave,” by U2, because those magnificent bastards have lyrics that are applicable to just about anything.
