[There was no point pestering her about it, so he let the subject go without further comment. It was up to her to struggle with her identity and where she fit into the grand scheme of things, and in the end, it might not entirely be his business anyway. Likely SHIELD and HYDRA had large scale plans on what to do with her when her powers did whatever it was that they were going to. He figured they still needed to mature some.
The smile was assurance enough that she understood her position. So, he waited and watched beyond their hide out, assessing how the situation was bound to go. He let her have all the time she needed to wash up and straighten herself out for the next mission that they would partake together. He was rising when it seemed she was almost ready and packed up his essentials.
By the time she was ready, so was he. He nodded his head and slung his pack on his back, hid his rifle in among his loose clothing and gestured to the door with his head.]
Mission is an infiltration of a guarded facility and assassination if the target hasn't been moved. We get in and get out as quickly and quietly as possible. If it can't be done because of increased security, we back off and SHIELD will put out feelings to have a second try.
[So he took her out into the streets, which had more people than it probably should this time of night. Some where minding their own business, but others were clearly looking for the source of previous trouble. He kept Ava close to him as if she were a relative, despite her red hair. It looked far less odd for a pair to be walking around and they made good progress down the streets as they weaved their way to the manor they were to infiltrate.
A few stops and starts, a few detours and they managed to arrive.] You think you can blow the electricity in this place? [He was looking up at a power pole as he said it, aware casting everything in darkness would give him a better edge for a shot.]
