Steve's cheeks turned literally as read as the stripes on his uniform. So. Not. Fair. "I erm.. um... okay," he managed to actually say without fainting, having any nosebleeds, or even acting like that had affected him too much. Well it was true that it did. But at the same time he reminded himself: he is in the presence of two ladies and did not want to give an audience something that would be possibly awkward or disrespectful. But golly, she didn't have to bust out the big guns.
"You've gotta be freakin' kidding me!" Johnny blurted out with his jaw dropped slightly.

Johnny! If you want to live you'll shut your damn mouth...UNDERSTAND!? Betsy didn't so much as twitch her eye like she desperately wanted to. "Thanks for believing me baby."
Pet names were her job...the bloodly flammer needed to learn that...right quick...

"Yes m'am," Johnny replied verbally by accident.
Steve smiled before hearing Johnny's reply and couldn't help but laugh. "Not a problem."

Betsy banged her head against Steve's chest. "Make him stop please?" she was beginning to develope a migrane...which would not be good for anyone in the base...anyone with a mind...so atleast Johnny would be safe. The outfit was hard and she immediately regreted it but now was not the time to focus on her pounding head.

"Well how can I if you can't even get him to stop?" Steve teased before gently running a hand along the top of Betsy's head, slightly regretting tha Betsy pounded her head on his chest for her sake. He gently rubbed her temples.
Johnny just sat there grinning triumphantly as he attributed that brief moment to kharma. "Well gals and gent, I gotta get goin'... flight to fly or whatever to somewhere not here," he said as he got up and walked past Natasha and the couple (which made him want to gag), leaving his mug on the table. "I'll catch ya'll later... when you know... you are out of your anti-morning stage." He stretched as he started to make an exit. "Later Russian Ray of Sunshine," he said being careful not to put any ownership on the title. "And Cap... if you're gonna nail Bets in here... get her up on the counter... good leverage," he said doing a brief pelvic motion to demonstrated before quickly running out of the room.
Steve just stood there now; mouth agape at the Human Torch's comments.

Natasha took her cue to leave as well. "I'm going to go clean guns or something... I need something to kill him with." She shrugged and left.

That was it. "I'm going to kill him...painfully." There was really nothing else to say. Steve wouldn't let her go right now but she had another plan Just for a taste of what your going to be feeling later... Betsy's telepathic facial butterfly showed up as she launched a mind bolt that was going to ignite every nerve in Johnny's body with pain...not alot...just somewhere between white hot and searing.
"You give one nice temple rub though..." Betsy smiled up at Steve while awaiting Johnny's squeal of pain to echo through the building.

Steve laughed as he nodded to Natasha as she left. All was now quiet...
"You BITCH!" a scream tore through the silence that could only be deciphered as belonging to Johnny.
This of coarse only caused Steve to laugh a bit harder, deciding that it was better than trying to stop her. "Well... that was handled well," he said jokingly.

Betsy laughed, "No blood. Nice and clean." she leaned against Steve and continued drinking her coffee and said pensively, "I should probably go get ready...you make me feel over dressed..." She wasn't going to leave till her coffee was done but then she was off to the shower.

Steve laughed and shook his head. "Even so... must they always scream a profanity when you do that?" he asked jokingly before his cheeks turned a deep deep red as he felt them heat up as well.

Betsy laughed, "You sound old when you say that...it's cute." Betsy pinched his reddened cheek and asked, "Well if your in such a very shy mood I won't ask you to come help me get dressed and ready for the day."

Of coarse, such statements only made Steve blush even further. "I... um..." Why was it that he had such a problem with words at offers like that? Was it really that hard to say 'no, i would love to help you'? "I-if you need help... I guess I could always lend you a hand," he said with a shy smile.

Betsy laughed, "You so lucky your cute Steve." she refrained from sexy cause it'd embarrass him more and she really didn't want to do that to him any more than she had to...

Steve laughed lightly. "Or at least get them into a stalemate," he said modestly. "They've improved apon the formula," he admitted. "And besides, you count. Mutant or no."

Betsy shook her head, "It isn't really fair, I was never part of the program...and I'm able to cut through molecules because of my powers, comparing me to the X-men is more fair." She was right she wasn't supposed to be an Avenger but she choose to stay after they rescued her from the Hand. The mention of the X-men triggered one of her rare visions. Fire.Robots.Screams. It seemed apocalyptic but she never truly understood exactly what was going to happen...but this frightened her.

"Well you're an Avenger now," Steve said simply with a nod before taking another sip of coffee. He couldn't tell what had just flashed through her mind, but he could tell that the mention of the X-men had triggered someting. "Are you alright?" he asked cautiously.

Betsy blinked it away, "Yeah...I am atleast. Something's gonna happen though. To the X-men. All I saw was fire, sentinels and I heard screams." She wasn't sure what kind of screams they were. But she had no idea what was gonna happen, "Well...I don't know what we can do about it..."

Steve bit his lip. That could never mean anything good. "We could send out a warning to the X-men... possibly try and pinpoint where it's going to happen and possibly prevent it," Steve suggested, going into "team leader" mode.

Betsy shrugged, "Thats true...but I don't think the screams were pain though Steve...they sounded...sad...I think I'll have to meditate on it some more and try to figure things out. Anyways...you know Xavier...he likes things his way...why else does he refuse to be more of an ally to us?"
