We are from the same time, then. [Or close enough, at least. This is going to be a lot less awkward than last time.]
You did not know who I was last time. Neither does Bruce. [She doesn't say it outright but yes, she was basically at Tony Stark's mercy where they were concerned. He could have told them anything, true or not, and even though he did the right thing, it made her super uncomfortable that it could come to his word against hers.
Bruce is, of course, another issue entirely, but Steve hasn't even got any shoes yet - she can't drop that on him until he's a little more settled in. Still...having him here is a major relief. Things just seem a little bit closer to okay when Steve is around.]
I'm sorry you are here, but it is good to see a friendly face.
