for worldsbestburger - two spies walk into a bar

"Do you think we're getting too old for this?"

The question is delivered thoughtfully, as if she's a patron of the arts, weary in her search for the latest ingenue. Which is maybe the exact opposite of the truth, considering she is in fact a career spy sitting in the back booth of what might be the shadiest bar she's ever seen. It's shady enough that she's starting to wonder if they inadvertently wandered into one of the dens used by the Russian mob.

Which would track, given a) her luck b) Sharon's luck and c) the fact that they're still somewhere in Romania waiting for extraction after a very long, very tedious mission.

Still, they're here now, and the best way to blend in at a shitty bar is to act like a shitty person. Natasha slinks down in her seat and props her feet up next to Sharon on the bench she's sitting on. Her brow arches pointedly as she takes a swig of her beer, which - now that she's looking at it - is labeled Michelov Ultra.

Oh yeah. They're definitely in for a fun night.
