You treated their enemy, then and they might see that as an act of betrayal? Is that what you are worried about? Forgive me but that sounds a bit absurd. Steve and Stark do not seem the sort to begrudge you doing your job. I assume, too, that Barton is alive and well?

I'm well aware of Loki's connection with the Avengers. Before he left, Coulson explained the situation to me, including the circumstances surrounding his death.

You've no need to fear reprisal though, at least from Stark and Steve. They'll understand, and if there's trouble Obi-Wan and I can handle it. I've begun working with Loki myself. He's...not that far gone. Despite what the Avengers may believe.
