Peggy's words make Steve's brain short circuit. "And just what were you thinking about?"

_____________________________________

Hints of a crimson blush start to spill into her cheeks. The way she savored the image of his naked form was UNHOLY. "I was --" Peggy's eyes lift towards Steves sheepishly. She drags in a sharp inhale to steady herself before continuing. "I was considering how nice it would be to lather soap all over you." She shivers softly. "To soap you up ---" She clears her throat, "using my body." The last words are rushed.

The brunette almost wishes he'd miss them. Oh, her imagination took things way further. She pictured how easily Steve could lift her, her legs surrounding him as he pressed her into the shower wall. The way the two of them would moan into each other's mouths, move ferverently until they both came unraveled. Just thinking about it again, made her skin grow HOT as a fresh ember that had fallen away from the flames.

the police have a few more questions. (Peggy to Murphy)

“Don’t they always?” Murphy reaches up to rub at his temples, Their office is nearly empty—Murph has already sent the rest of the team home. The only ones who stayed where Peggy, who refuses to leave until she is sure she is no longer needed, and Patrick who has fallen asleep in his desk chair. “What do they want this time?” He is going to kill Laura. What has been a fleeting thought in the past is now congealing into a solid desire with every minute that passes. He knows Laura’s been known to take some cheap shots in the past… but convincing the police that his office is responsible for a break-in at the Remington Steele offices is a new low. Why in the world would his team give a rap about what happened on her cases? The fact that they somehow got different clients for the same case, and that his team is making good strides in their investigation, seems to have ignited Laura’s little green monster. Still… it is hard to swallow that she would go to these lengths to slow them down or get her hands on their material.  He looks up, giving Peggy a wry grin. “Hell of a mess we got ourselves in, Peggy. Think we can get away with hiding our evidence at your place, so Laura can’t get a free sneak peek at it?”

_______________________________________________

Peggy swallows down grimly at his state. She has never witnessed Murphy Michaels in such abysmal condition. "Unfortunately, yes. It does seem to be the way they comport themselves." Resting herself briefly upon the corner edge of his desk, she replies. His inquiry causes her to inhale sharply, her arms barring across her chest. "They are quite certain you are hiding some vital intelligence or other as per Laura Holt's word. Shall I send them away with a firm rebuke for you?"

The former agent departs her perch to curl her porcelain fingers about his shoulder. "We'll get through this. It'll be right as rain. You are innocent. That is what counts. I'll e working to clear your name of all charges." The brunette does her best to assure her new boss.

Her next answer is instinctual. "Of course. Jarvis and I can smuggle it to the Griffith now, if you wish to detain your unwanted company---." Being accused of aiding and abetting was not a NEW routine, not even in the slightest thanks to Howard Stark. She feels no guilt making a mockery of a trail that is a petty revenge scam cooked up by a less adequate private investigation office. If it's a series of folders she can easily conceal them in her slicker. If it's a box, she can disguise it as cleaning tools that a common janitorial maid would carry. Peggy is pretty sure not even a brow would be lifted over it-- here or at the Griffith. The delightful Ms. Fry would just assume she was keeping tidy care of her property.

I am currently writing a paper on the music of the Captain America trilogy, and this has caused me to notice an exceedingly interesting detail that I previously missed. In The First Avenger, after Peggy shoots at Steve, a melody that sounds very similar to the Captain America theme plays. This repeats twice: one time when she puts the gun down and stalks away, and again while Steve and Howard are so shocked by what Peggy just did that they stare after her even as they continue their conversation.

This is quite disgusting, as it rather implies that Peggy just did something noble and honorable, or something that Steve would approve of, when this is not even close to the case. Steve would never be so thoroughly irresponsible and reckless, nor would he approve of such pettiness, or partake in it himself. Indeed, it is clear to see how betrayed Steve felt when he was cautiously ensuring that she was done shooting at him. The music also disingenuously tries to reframe the characters' reactions to her outburst as positive. The fact that the almost-Captain-America theme continues after Peggy leaves Steve and Howard staring after her endeavors to make it seem like their reaction is because they're impressed, rather than because they are stunned and dismayed as is far more likely.

And what's worse, this is not even the only time that the music disagrees with how the characters are acting in its haste to glorify Peggy and promote Steggy. Later in the movie, after Peggy kisses Steve without his consent, a happy little horn melody plays, even though it is pretty clear that the kiss upset Steve, and did not please him. The music seriously did a surprising amount of heavy-lifting for Steggy.

But in any case, this does help explain why so many people have no problem with Peggy assaulting Steve, and even see it as a good thing: the music is encouraging them to see it that way. This is yet another example of how influential framing can be.

Transfixed the brunette can not help but allow her maple orbs to linger upon his well-built frame. It is impossible to ignore his model-esque appearance, the muscularity of his arms, or the vivacious energy that lingered beneaht his eyes. And, a part of her is quite impressed that he can fix pipes. Was there anything this Bruce Wayne could not do? If there was, Peggy hadn't yet considered it. He had enough fianances to hire help, and still, he was one to get in the grit and mire? The thought leaves her more impressed than ever.

"I do hate to disrupt your home improvement project, Mister Wayne." Carter expresses politely, perching herself at the seat behind his desk. Her eyes are intent to focus her new, quite interesting, surroundings. "I've been sent by the SSR to protect you." Though now that she's SEEN him, she almost doubts he requires her protection.

Bruce was working on some of the pipes in the Manor when he could hear and feel someone behind him.

"Had an issue with some pipes going from the water mains to downstairs. Give me a minute and I'll be with you."

In the pilot of Agent Carter:

It cracks me up that Peggy takes Daniel Sousa's coffee cup, one that he is still drinking out of, into the board room. Right? She fills it back to the brim and then LEAVES it there.
