His name was Phil. Every time I hear that line, I cry a little on the inside. Ughhhhh, I didn't used to be so broken up over him. Thanks AOS!

Just glad this was jossed, but it's a nice story.

That was wonderful. :(

Beautifully done. Solid characterization, vivid description, elegant and spare. I too think Coulson deserved better than that cowardly backstab. But he got the last word on Loki: "You lack conviction." Ouch. Accurate, and deadly.

Thanks for the great story.

(p.s. is there a bit of a sentence missing right before "His name was Phil"?)

*ugly sobbing*

This is a good one, in keeping with the tone of the movie and how everyone would have reacted. I like how you addressed each one in turn, and I especially liked how well you kept in character for Thor. Nice job, although your thoughts on the Hulk don't sound quite complete. But I really liked your last line, the one that sums it all up and tells what gave them all the extra push to fight as the team they were meant to be. :)
