[Trying to be diplomatic was a lot harder than her old ways. Were this the old days, she might've just ended this with a cut of her blade and walked away without a second thought. But that was the assassin she was, not the person she is now. After Xandar, Gamora came to value life more than she did all those years she was under Thanos' rule.]

I think it's best you let them take you into custody for the time being.

[These words were directed at Rumlow, of course. Otherwise, this was probably going to turn into a fight. Did Gamora trust SHIELD or HYDRA? Not necessarily. This was a fight between them and she had nothing to do with it, but she didn't want to hear of any more deaths.]

[ukase]

[Rumlow shook his head, though he raised his hands in a show of good faith that he would surrender. It helped that no one was currently in his range to grab and make a bit of a mess with, but this situation was not entirely out of his control just yet. Custody was better than he thought would happen if they got their hands on him.

Of course, there was a bit of hitch to this whole surrender plan.]

I'll go quietly into custody, but not SHIELD custody. As it should be obvious to two unrelated members of this merry band, you two are bias against me. There's no guarantee that you won't bring me harm once you take me to wherever you're going to take me.

[He nodded towards Gamora and then the kid. Hilarious really.]

If I'm innocent until proven guilty, I'd rather go with one or both of these two. If you still insist I enter SHIELD custody, I have them as witnesses to my physical state as it is now. [And damn did he know how to injure himself for a good cause.]

[notafraidofyou]

[Tim gives him an extremely skeptical look.]

Dude. Just because I'm not part of your psycho grudge match doesn't mean we're pals. I like Phil, and Coraline is my friend. If you had anything to do with hurting them, I will be really happy to see awful things happen to you.

We'll all go. Downstairs. Common area. --The ballroom. [ Trip glanced between Gamora and Skye without losing his focus on Rumlow. ] Gamora and Skye can lead the one flight down while we cover from the rear.

[hacker]

All right.

[ Skye nods, then looks to Rumlow with an expression both snide and patronizing, daring him to disagree as she feigns interest in his opinion on the matter. More realistically, her question is aimed at Gamora, but she watches Rumlow instead as she asks. ]

Neutral ground, under mixed guard. Does that work for you?

[deadlystar]

[Gamora doesn't look too pleased at how complicated this has become. Well, mostly because she's now more directly involved than she first thought she would be, but it can't be helped. She can hardly walk away from it now.]

Fine, but I will choose the ground.

[She turns to Rumlow and approaches, getting closer to him now than she has since she arrived.]

You will turn your room key over to me and be confined to your quarters.

[Before people start to argue, she looks over to the group.]

Search his room. Remove any weapons that might exist. I think keeping him in his room is the best thing in this situation. The space is smaller than any of the rooms downstairs and there is only one exit. If he tries to escape, he can only go in two directions. Anyone who comes down this hall will not be able to hide from a guard posted here at the door.

[Her hand indicates the hallway passage.]

Should he escape, this space is narrow enough that he can be easily trapped. If he makes it to the stairwell, his chances aren't much better. It would be like running a gauntlet.

[She turns to Rumlow again and raises a brow.]

I assume that's acceptable. [She glances him over.] Now turn around. I intend to search you. [Try not to enjoy the pat down too much, Rumlow!]

[ukase]

[He watched Gamora, but he was more than aware of the odds against him at this time. He would wait, let the situation unfold and plan his way out of it. For now, he'd play nice and keep his limbs intact.

He still flick a wink at Tim.] I still trust you more than them. [Which was barely above 'not at all'.

Rumlow produced his room key into his palm but otherwise gave nothing away to her solid logic on keeping him. Though of course, they weren't allowed weapons here, but that didn't mean he didn't have any. He just didn't store them in his room, that's all. After all of this, he knew better than that.]

More reasonable then I expected when you all came at me. [He turned his back on her, though he was tense. He knew she could hurt and kill him after all.]

[notafraidofyou]

Tch. Whatever. [Tim mutters the words under his breath as he moves toward the door to Rumlow's room. He's ready to help whoever's going to do this search. Obviously they need to check for weapons, but he'll be looking for evidence, too.

He's not sure if he's hoping to find something of Coraline's or not.]
