Jane laughed at Summer’s enthusiasm, smiling brightly. “Yeah, I have a lab. A pretty big one, actually. I have one big telescope there, and some equipment I made myself, along with some that S.H.I.E.L.D. supplied me with. I travel whenever I can, too. It’s hard to see stars in this city.”
She rolled her eyes, but she was still smiling. “Yeah, you can come see it some time. And I haven’t really found anything conclusive on that subject, yet. It’s going to take a bit of work. It’s more about trying to find something that proves it right rather than trying to find something that proves what we already believe wrong. It’s… sort of difficult. But that’s space, for you. Nothing’s easy.”
“Oh, well, nothing ever worth having is easy,” Summer replied. Her grin slid slightly sideways, acquiring mischief. “Soooo … does Thor fly you when you go out of town? Or do you still have to hoof it? I gotta say, I’m still really curious about this whole thing with you and Thor. I mean, the man — god? — is … he’s a thing. Like, I can’t even describe it.”
“I haven’t been out of town a whole lot since we met back up, to be honest,” Jane said, and shrugged. “I’m sure he would fly me somewhere if I asked him to, but I’ve just been taking jets from either S.H.I.E.L.D. or Stark Industries. Working for them all comes with perks.” She chuckled, taking a sip from her coffee.
“Well… what do you mean? I know he’s kind of… y’know. He’s just. He’s Thor. There’s no other way to put it.”
“I’m so jealous of you right now, I can’t even say. I mean,” Summer shrugged, “okay, I have some powers, and I can fly too, but I am so low down on the totem pole, you would not believe. And here you are, famous scientist girl with the hot boyfriend and the most amazing friends on the planet. I bet our old classmates would have a /cow/ if they could see you now.”
She grinned. “One more nosey question and then I swear I’ll stop.” Summer picked up one last doughnut, and giving Jane the side-eye, licked at the frosting slowly. “What’s he like … in bed?”
