[A couple games later and Spidey is nomming his way through chicken. He gestures towards another box with his chopsticks, still chewing.]

Oh, 'ey. 'Ant some?

[soldarius]

[ Oh, Spidey. A brief glance at the other box and she realizes she can use something to eat right about now. Although talking with your mouth full is considered bad manners. ]

Sure. Mind passing one over?

[incywincyhero]

[He chews, swallows.]

Sure thing.

[Passing the box to her with his free hand:]

Kate, right? We met when Q was away.

[soldarius]

That's me.

[ She takes the box, nodding in thanks. ]

So, you know Bucky, too?

[nottheanswers]

[Vic sneaks up from behind and eyes their chicken.]

Now, you two know what they say about speaking of the devil. I'm sure our host's ears will be burning at this point.

[incywincyhero]

[Spidey hands him a box. Box-hander-over, that's his job tonight.]

Eh, there are worse things than picking up a false tell during a poker game.

[soldarius]

[ She's about to dig into hers and tilts her head in Vic's direction. ]

Eavesdropping isn't polite.

[ But she smirks anyway, amused. ]

[nottheanswers]

[Oh, who's he to turn down food? He actually brought them a couple beers also, which he reveals as he comes around and has a seat.]

Well, I guess that makes me professionally impolite. What's going on in this corner?

[incywincyhero]

Discussing the finer points of Sartrean philosphy, obviously. Why, what's it look like?

[He waves off the beer politely, takes a sip of his -- is that milk?]

[soldarius]

[ Leaning back, she takes a sip of her own beer. ]

I hope we don't look too suspicious now.

[nottheanswers]

[Vic splits his chopsticks out of the package and starts digging through his chicken.]

Need something to look suspicious about first. I might be able to provide.

[incywincyhero]

[Spidey leans forward, intent.]

Ooooh, are we gossiping? I love gossip. Is it about Bucky? 'Cause you know that guy's got some deep, dark secret ... maybe he likes the Care Bears.

[soldarius]

[ She grins, looking so amused. ]

I'm all ears.

[nottheanswers]

[He finishes chewing a mouthful, then takes a sip of his beer before leaning in he's just telling them any regular story.]

Let me start from the top, to bring Spidey up to speed. Most of the big criminals in town had a meet last night, and I managed to wrangle a disguise that net me an in.

Turns out The Major was the brain behind this shindig.

I AM SO SORRY

[incywincyhero]

Oh goody, here we go again. So what plan does he have stashed up his sleeves this time?

<3

[soldarius]

[ Kate leans in as well, eyes narrowed. She'd heard a bit about the Major. ]

I'd been told a while back he'd been quiet.
