"Would that be such a terrible thing?"

Carter asked it in her haughty tone: all arch and little leniency. A kind of false concern over his opinion when (it was supposed) she cared very little whether he thought well or ill of her by-times enjoyment. To add fuel to this feeling, she continued on: "It isn't everyday one gets to be the pioneering soul into an ancient civilization -- provided that's even what these people were."

If the SSR had turned into something of an intelligence bureau in its adolescence, then Peggy Carter still embodied a devilish excitement for the unknown -- for a kind of intelligence gathering that wasn't staid and stodgy behind a desk.

"Aren't you even a little bit curious?"
