Coffee Shop Construction is a go!
Who: Natasha Romanoff and anyone conned into likely to swing by and help
What: Before it can open, the coffee shop needs a little tlc and a few touch-ups.
When: Friday, May 10. Possibly extending into the weekend.
Where: The future location of A Shot In The Dark coffee shop. (AKA, Building M)
Summary: Natasha calls in a few favors and bribes a few friends and teammates into helping her get the coffee shop ready to open. Anyone able to hammer a few nails, wield a paint brush or broom, or move some furniture is invited.Or come ogle some of the shirtless males she's put to work, that's acceptable too.
Rating: PG. Probably. >.>
Natasha's still not entirely sure why she's doing this. Most mornings, she wakes up with the inevitable realization that she's probably lost her mind. She's not one to put down roots, to make a commitment to anything, because things don't last, situations change and her lifestyle choice of 'don't get attached' is slowly getting buried under a mound of teammates, friends, and persistent pests that somehow end up being debatably endearing.
And, apparently, a coffee shop.
Yup. She's definitely lost her mind. That doesn't seem to stop her from going each day and working on the little shop off the plaza, although she's reached a point that there's not much else she can do on her own. She needs help. A galling realization, but hey, that's what teammates are for, right? So, on a bright and sunny Friday morning, she rounds up what help she can find to pound out the last few renovations needed for the place.
((OOC Note: Most of the work needed is inside the cafe itself, although some work can be done outside as well. The doors will be propped open for people to come and go and they're taking pretty much a blank slate of an interior and turning it into this. So, work your character could possibly be doing is helping construct the coffee bar, painting the walls, hanging light fixtures or the shelving behind the coffee bar. Cleaning up the tables and chairs or the other surfaces inside once the sawdust and nail-pounding clears up. And if someone wants to get creative and make her a sign, she will be eternally grateful.
There will be a constant supply of drinks and snacks as well, for people wanting to take breaks or those wandering by to eyeball the proceedings. Hop in, help out, or just stop by to chat.))

She reaches in her back pocket, tugging out one of the sketches Billy had given her as a rough draft of what they could work towards. A sign that read ' A Shot in the Dark', complete with bullet holes to help make the lettering.
"Feel like helping me shoot a sign sometime soon?"

Of course, she has to ask about the internet thing and Bucky clears his throat. It had started off innocuously enough, just locker room talk between guys, but... Yeah, she really doesn't want to know.
He leans against her to see the little sketch. It looks pretty good, but it takes a moment for the name to click.
Shots - like the espresso shots they had in Italy. He'd thought those might be espresso machines he'd seen people bring in. It's actually pretty damn clever. He grins at her.
"That's fantastic."
At the question, Bucky lights up like a kid at Christmas. "You serious?"

"I'll take that as a yes then, shall I?"
no subject
"Take it as a yes. It's been a while since we had a date where we shot something. It'll be just like old times, but without the body count."
no subject
"You do know how to show a girl an exciting time," she teases, her gaze bright and fond. "It's a date, then. As soon as I get something actually solid to shoot."
