Summary
A contract means SHIELD plans to use him in the field. They want a soldier. A weapon. If the asset can demonstrate his value as an operative, SHIELD might never consider using him for anything else.
It offers a measure of protection, slight though it may be. But—
It isn’t a guarantee, Captain Rogers said. Not yet. The asset will have to earn it.
The asset resolves to meet every expectation SHIELD raises. He will comply with every demand. Follow every order.
If he does that, if he can keep SHIELD satisfied with his performance as a weapon— Maybe they won’t have time to consider other ways he could satisfy them.
It’s a possibility. A hope, tiny and vulnerable and the asset should know better—he *does* know better—but he holds on to it anyway because— (Maybe things will be different this time. Maybe, if he’s good enough— If he doesn’t ruin it for himself like he *always* ends up doing—)
