Hill and Fury never discussed these preparations
April 30, 2025 at 04:48 AM
They never rehearsed this. Fury told her to have a plan, and she made several. When she imagined this moment, the plans and outcomes played out and recombined and fell apart like DNA. It often calmed Hill, to sort through the most and least likelies, to let events fall where they would and to slice through them, her most advantageous path. Kind of like Tetris: the order and the inevitables soothed her and helped her act.
She couldn't settle into this one. She put too much of herself into those tears at the OR window. Her guts roiled, not to tell Natasha.
He slept on out of spite before he woke. That's what kept her sitting by his side.
