[Private Text to Natalia, Sif, and Clint]

So we're all here, and whether we remember each other or not we're all heros. How do you guys feel about forming a New Moore branch of the Avengers? The police department is very understaffed so I've been trying to pick up some of the slack for them but it would be a lot easier if we were a formal organization.

So, what do you guys think?

If I may.

You wouldn't necessarily need carry the title of Avenger; just knowing we'd have you as backup if we need it would be enough. All things considered, I'd rather someone more familiar with the more esoteric arts, even if you don't practice them, on our speed dial.

It is a different thing entirely, to ask for my help or my advice, than ask me to be an Avenger.

Then think of it that way. I won't try to force you into doing anything you don't want to do, and if you don't wish to be one, that's fine. I like you as an ally, and I don't want to do anything to damage that.

Do you truly think I would refuse to come to your aid, Natalia Romanova, if you truly had need of me?

[pauk]

If I ever gave you reason to do so? Yes.

[swordhappy]

I cannot say you are wrong.

But I had not thought you foolish enough to do such a thing.

[pauk]

I don't like to think I am, either.

[swordhappy]

Then I hope you need never find out.
