Summary
Across from Nick on the train, Maria wonders, but doesn’t ask, if he’s so good at knowing a liar when he sees one because of the woman who raised him.
“So, why don’t we play?” he asks after a moment of silence, after it becomes clear that Hill has something on her mind. He’s good at knowing these things about her, too. “Go a few rounds?”
Maria nods, twenty-three and only half-toughened so far, searching for his approval. It’s been a long time since she cared what anybody thought, but Nick Fury is different. She thinks he’ll always be a little bit different to her. It’s odd – to have such trust in somebody she’s only known for a few months now – but he came to recruit her right after her honorable discharge from the Marines, right after her last tour, when she got out because she couldn’t take it anymore.
He asked, and she answered. He expects, and she delivers. And because of this, he cares, and she lets him. It’s nice. It’s been a long time since somebody cared.
“Alright. Tell me something I don’t know about kid Maria.”
(Or, five times Maria and Nick play Tell Me Something I Don't Know, and one time where they don't.)
