Jarvis, if you're reading this, some of that chicken noodle soup would be divine.

Or Howard. Send Ana, send anyone, so long as you send soup.

Something to banish the disease and whoever got me sick.

Do you think you could manage that?

[oorah]

if i could i'd be doing that instead of bringing you soup. no offense.

[womanofvalue]

In that case, I'll have to settle for soup.

No chickens around, I take it?

[oorah]

there's goose but it'll take time to catch one.

[ doesn't mean he won't, just depends how patient she can be tbh. ]

[womanofvalue]

I'll settle for the elk, then, before I get batty with fever again.

I sent that to everyone, didn't I?

[oorah]

do you have enough firewood? blankets?

maybe.

[womanofvalue]

There can never be enough blankets.

...blast it. Well, I suppose I can recover from that.

[oorah]

pretty sure you could recover from mostly anything.

[womanofvalue]

I wouldn't say no to a drug to help me along, this time. Know of any?

[oorah]

i mean i could get you high but idk how healing it would be.

[ but he would still do it bc who says no to peggy carter??? seriously. ]

garlic is supposed to have antibiotic qualities, it's in the soup. have you had any peaches?

[womanofvalue]

I don't know if I've ever actually been high. Not intentionally, at least.

I have some peaches preserved in jam, but it didn't really do much on my toast this morning.

[oorah]

it wasn't my thing before this place either.

[ but when in rome ok ]

i'll bring over some fresh.

[womanofvalue]

Thank you, Frank. I can't promise I'm going to be very good company, but I'll do my best to be a host.

[oorah]

you don't have to worry about that ma'am. just focus on getting better.

[womanofvalue]

You're a sweetheart, you know. More men should be like you, where I come from.

[oorah]

careful agent. you're gonna make me blush.

[womanofvalue]

If you blush because you have manners, then blush away.

[oorah]

men don't have manners in the 40s?

[womanofvalue]

Not nearly enough to respect women for their accomplishments.

[oorah]

i'm sorry to hear that ma'am. for what it's worth you're the only name anyone remembers.

and if i'm being honest you were always a hero of mine. [ OK now he's actually blushing. ]

[womanofvalue]

A hero? Are you sure this isn't more of the fever talking? I'm not sure what I might have done to elevate me to heroic status.

[oorah]

are you kidding? carter and the howling commandos? you're like a legend in my time.

[womanofvalue]

Most people don't remember those accomplishments. Everyone was rather quicker to want to hear about my love affairs.

[oorah]

with all due respect i find your career with the military much more fascinating than your love life.

[ tho he'd still listen to both ok. ]

[womanofvalue]

I'm pleased to hear that, but you don't know how rare it is.

Which of the Howlies was your favourite?
