[Comprehensive British and American] Old popsicle online dating rules

Things are getting a little awkward now.

Leaping over all the alarm devices from the door, and standing in front of the dazzling control panel, Jarod, who had no idea that he had just been stripped of his vest by the Black Widow, was silent for a long time, and finally remembered a very important question.

He looks like a living fossil.

The kind of living fossil that has lived for thousands of years and slept for thousands of years.

I have no idea what these things are all about!

"Uh...then what."

A little embarrassed to open the communication, Garrod blushed, trying to make his voice sound less guilty: "Can someone teach me how to turn it off?"

"Come on, let the professionals do this kind of thing."

Just a word that choked Hawkeye half to death, Tony switched back to the public channel refreshed, and interrupted before Steve could speak:

"See the operating system on the screen, baby? Open its source code and modify it into Stark Industries' general script."

Oh.

Garrod looked confused: "What is the source code?"

"... Cough, it's nothing, it doesn't matter." Apparently he also felt that this kind of technology was too advanced for an elf, the CEO's father coughed lightly, closed his mouth about to start a long speech, and stared sharply at the black widow. Hands up in surrender:

"Come on, let's change to a simpler one—see those buttons on the console?"

"I see." The elf nodded.

"Tell me how many of them there are, and what are they?"

This sounds easier than modifying the source code, Garald scanned the operating table carefully, and quickly replied: "There are four in total, three on the left and one on the right, and it looks... er, they are all round? "

"..."

God damn is round.

Tony felt like he was going to collapse.

"alright."

After a long silence, he finally gave up communicating with the elves across the Mariana Trench:

"You just pull the switch. The one that stands out the most on the wall, the white one, the square one, the one with the wooden handle... oh my god, why are you more of an antique than Captain? You guys came out of the Ice Age together ?"

"I don't think it should be, Tony." With another shot lying down habitually, Steve answered for the aggrieved elf. He seemed to hesitate at the end, but he still couldn't hold back in the end: "What is Ice Age?"

Tony:  …

Goodbye my friend.

You have lost your president dad.

Not wanting to say a word, Tony paced out clutching his chest, and contacted Coulson to ask S.H.I.E.L.D. to deal with the aftermath.Only Steve and Jarod, who came back after pulling the switch, were left standing at the door, looking at each other in a daze, completely unaware of what they had done wrong.

"It's okay, it's not your fault." Patting Mr. Elf on the shoulder, Natasha said sadly behind him: "It's because the social studies arranged for you by S.H.I.E.L.D. are too unattractive, so you haven't learned anything. arrive."

Garald, who was always looking for reasons to skip classes: ...I'm sorry, I was wrong.

So, at this point, with the efforts of the Avengers, the incident of the half-orc invasion of New York was almost resolved in this way.

Waiting outside the building, Coulson was directing agents to help the New York Police Department clean up the streets. Seeing them come out, he sent people to the basement to check the nutrition warehouses non-stop, trying to find any useful information from them.When passing by Jarod, the acting director of S.H.I.E.L.D. nodded imperceptibly to him, and said something in a low voice, which caused the elf to be taken aback, and then showed a helpless wry smile.Except for Captain America who has been paying attention to this side, no one noticed it so fast.

In the air, the gunpowder smoke belonging to the battlefield slowly dissipated, the sky was clear, and the crowd began to walk back to the street from the shelter.

Behind him, Falcon was helping to lift a concrete slab, while talking with the transformed Dr. Banner; on the other side, Hawkeye, who finally got back his own bow and arrow, was busy fighting with Tony, and the Black Widow folded her arms Standing aside and rolling his eyes, he seemed to want to pretend that he didn't know these two guys.And a little further back, Garrod was standing in the shadow of the building. He didn't join the lively crowd after the war, but just quietly pressed his phone with his head down, looking at something.

Putting the shield behind his back, Steve hesitated, but walked slowly.

"team leader?"

He was lowering his head to send a message to the "Star-Spangled Banner" to report his safety, but found a rather tall figure blocking the sunlight in front of him.Mr. Elf locked the screen casually, raised his head, and showed a gentle smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Do you have any plans later?" Subconsciously returned a smile, Steve paused, and asked.

"Go home?" After thinking for a while, the elf shrugged: "Anyway, I can't go to work today. I don't think anyone is in the mood to go to the cake shop after something like this happens."

"Why don't you come with us for a drink?"

Not far away, Iron Man, who was clamoring for the Avengers to gather at the bar, raised his chin, and the captain seemed to shake his head helplessly: "Tony always likes to be lively, although it is very tiring after completing the mission, we still have to accompany him to open a meeting first." Party."

"You two have a very good relationship." Jialuode said clearly, "But I still forget it, I just helped a little, and I am not suitable for attending your Avengers' party."

Seeing that the captain frowned and was about to retort, he quickly added: "And Natasha told you, I'm an elf, and elves don't like to participate in too loud parties. What's more, compared to parties, I feel Might need a good night's sleep."

"But……"

Although it sounds reasonable, Steve just feels that something is wrong.But people have already brought up the racial differences, and he can't insist on anything. He can only look at Mr. Elf with a sorry smile, and after saying hello, he flees at the speed of light. That posture is not running too fast, but It was flying too low.

"Why, didn't you meet the little beauty?"

Finally unable to listen to the childish quarrel between Hawkeye and Iron Man, Natasha slowly walked over from behind, glanced at the back of Garrod who disappeared around the corner, and gave the captain a sympathetic look.

"I always feel that we've been rejected." Steve shook his head blankly: "Don't elves like parties? Even after battles?"

"maybe."

After glancing at the Avengers who were about to make a mess, the widow shrugged and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "But I think he may just need time to adapt."

"Adapt to what?"

"He can live without having to live in this world by himself."

Steve was silent for a long time.

"Forget it, don't talk about that."

Stand in place for a while.He touched the envelope that had been kept in his pocket, took a deep breath, and nodded to the agent as if he had made up his mind: "Natasha, tell Tony for me, I may be late tonight. "

"What are you doing?" Natasha raised her eyebrows.

And the captain looked righteous and awe-inspiring: "Go and find the happiness that belongs to me."

Natasha: Oh.

"The happiness of a 90-year-old virgin?"

Steve: ...Leave me alone, okay.

------------

After rushing back to the bakery to pick up his backpack, Garald smiled and waved goodbye amidst the silent complaints of his colleagues, and simply returned to his rented apartment.

When I opened my account, I saw that the avatar of "The Star-Spangled Banner" was still gray as expected.Mr. Elf thought for a while, and left a sentence, "Another accident happened in New York today, are you okay?" Then he threw the phone aside, put a tub of hot water and pressed himself into it, and soaked it until he was about to fall asleep. Only then yawned and crawled out from inside.

Because it was almost evening when the battle ended, and after tossing and tossing for a while, when Garald finally fed himself, the sky outside the window had already darkened.The streets were lit up with colorful lights again. Although a lot was damaged by the daytime attack, they were still enough to illuminate the night incomparably colorfully.

Turn off the lights in the house, and let the street lamps outside the window cast a long shadow on the floor.Only then did Mr. Elf pick up his phone again, open the LEX interface and swipe.I found that "The Star-Spangled Banner" was online and replied to my message. Judging from the time, it was not long after he left a message in the afternoon.

"The Star-Spangled Banner: I'm fine. "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: What about you?"You are not injured, are you? "

A gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth unconsciously, and Jialuo De replied happily:

"Zha Jin Hua": Of course not, thank you for your concern. "

Unexpectedly, he pressed the send button, and after waiting for a few seconds, the other party's new message was sent.

"Star-Spangled Banner: Don't be so polite, you're fine. "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: What are you doing now?"returned home? "

"Zha Jin Hua": It's been a long time since I went home. "

""Zha Jin Hua": I just lay down on the bed and chatted with you, waiting for when the sleep god will surprise me so that I can have a good sleep. "

Ok?

Sitting in the convenience store downstairs of Garrod's apartment, Steve looked at his watch suspiciously, and found that there was still some distance from "Fried Golden Flower"'s usual rest time, and his brows frowned involuntarily:

"The Star-Spangled Banner: What?"not comfortable? "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: Is it sick? ! "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: Are you really not hurt?Didn't lie to me on purpose? "

Before he could react, the dialog box was already filled with messages from "Star-Spangled Banner". This hand speed can be said to be very powerful for him.Jarod held up his phone and looked at it. Although the elf was not sick, he really felt very grateful for the undisguised concern of "The Star-Spangled Banner".

""Fried Golden Flower";...Don't worry, I really don't have one. "

"Zha Jin Hua": I'm just a little tired. "

Of course, this is not true either.For an elf who can even come and go freely in half an orc army, the amount of activity today is far from exhausting him.Garald felt that he might be a bit upset now. After all, facing those half-orcs who came from the same world as him was actually not as simple as it seemed. For the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. , they might just be occasional threats, monsters that should be eliminated.But to him, it represented a long and distant memory, a history that no one knew long ago, and a reminder that was extremely cruel to elves——

As the race with the deepest attachment to the ethnic group, he has never been able to return to his homeland.

"Zha Jin Hua": So, maybe I just miss something from the past? "

Sometimes, people always have such sudden nostalgia.

With a deep understanding of this, Steve sighed, looked at the brightly lit apartment building in front of him, bowed his head and typed slowly:

""Star-Spangled Banner": It doesn't matter, even if things from the past can never be retrieved, you can still see them in your dreams. "

""Star-Spangled Banner": Of course, you have to control yourself, otherwise they will harass you and kick you out like a nightmare. "

""Fried Golden Flower";...really? [smile] [smile]"

Amused by the solemn comfort of "The Star-Spangled Banner", Jarod couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth:

""Fried Golden Flower": Then I might stick in it, so that they can't kick it away no matter how much they kick. "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: It's okay, I can happily help them out. "

""Zha Jin Hua": ... Hey, I can't help but beat you up when I wake up. "

""Star-Spangled Banner": My greatest strength is my resistance to beating. "

""Fried Golden Flower":..."

Holding the phone, he couldn't laugh or cry, and was poured into his mouth by the other party's bowl of chicken soup. Jialuode felt that he was really choked now, but his mood was indeed much better.I chatted with "Star-Spangled Banner" for a while, and soon felt drowsy. Mr. Elf yawned a little, and said sorry to the other party, and "Star-Spangled Banner" obviously understood it very well, and told him to go quickly have a good rest.

"Zha Jin Hua": Then I'll go to bed first. "

""Fried Golden Flower": Good night [love]. "

In a few seconds, his avatar turned into offline gray.

Staring at the screen for a while, the corners of his mouth raised a nice arc.Steve touched his pocket, stood up from his seat, pushed open the door of the convenience store and walked out.

Passing through the dim street lights, he silently stepped into the gate of the apartment rented by netizens.He took out the envelope containing the signed photo, stood in front of the mailbox and looked at it for a while, his eyes finally fell on the house number of a room on the top floor, and his eyes seemed to be filled with the starlight of the entire night sky.

Captain America Express, delivered safely.

By the way, check the address that "Fried Golden Flower" sent him yesterday, and after confirming that it is correct, put the envelope into the mailbox.Steve stood in the narrow corridor, laughed silently for a while, then lowered his head, and typed a line in the dialog box where "Zha Jin Hua" had gone offline.

"Star-Spangled Banner: I wish you a sweet dream. "

"The Star-Spangled Banner: Good night. "

The author has something to say: Natasha: I thought you would attack directly at night.

Mullard: I want to, I dare not :-(
