"Thought maybe you'd have found a way to automatically convert it to bio-fuel or somethin'. Maybe next time you upgrade." Steve's lips twitch, under the beard, into something resembling a smirk.
He's good with those lockpicks; it's quick and clean. He's not quite a safecracker yet, but he's clearly done this before, and he tucks the set away in his pocket again without a word.
There is nothing in the building here except broken pews, empty fonts, candle-benches, and the stained glass windows high on the walls. Any statuary has been carefully removed by the congregation that abandoned this place. Perhaps the edifice itself has some value as a historic relic; otherwise it would be a t-mobile store by now.
Steve's hand trails absently over the empty holy-water font as he passes. It's a habit. He also looks up at one of the windows, meeting the eyes of the figure pictured there. Saint Michael the Archangel.
"Five days," he repeats. "All right. I can tell you what facility the cube is at right now, but it was destroyed before I got involved with SHIELD, so as far as the layout, I haven't got a clue. Are we going there, or are we waiting until Loki shows up to take it from him?"
In a nutshell: will it be harder to take the damn thing from a Norse deity or out from under Nick Fury? It's kind of a tough call.
