If it was just faster metabolism you'd be hungry all the time. Body chemistry, it's— [waves a hand] they didn't turn you into an Olympic athlete, that would've been A. easier to execute and B. much harder to sustain, they would've had to put you on a special diet and an exercise regime. So it must've been much more thorough, to put it in my terminology, it was a full reprogramming.

[eats his toast, looking pretty pleased with himself]

Weren't you about to fall over a little while ago?

That was before I had things to do.

[finishes his toast... and sneezes]

[ rolls his eyes ]

Nuh-uh. I'll still be here for you to figure out later.

I don't need you around to figure things out.

[leans back in his chair and take out his phone, tapping at it happily]

Nope, but you need me around for testing. And I can call the deal off any time.

[ time to break into this egg~ ]

[looks up]

You can't give me something to play with and then take it away, that would be downright cruel.

Like I said, I'll still be here.

[oh my god how did this happen. Sets the phone on the table]

I'll get some sleep, use Coulson's aromatherapy thing.

[a pause because why is this happening]

Thanks for the food.

Hey, it was yours, I should thank you.

[ stands up and lifts the egg in a hardboiled salute ]

I'd better head back now anyway.

Right. Good night.

[ heading out ]

Don't let the bed bugs bite!

[calling after him, amused]

You're an embarrassment!
