[ it's not that kate's not used to teaming up — hello, young avengers, also everything with clinton francis — but doing so with a civilian is pretty rare... and also probably incredibly ill-advised. but a job is a job and barty seems more than capable. besides, with any luck it will be a simple op — a grab and go with plenty of time left for a celebratory glass of champagne on the way out.
of course part of the job requires a bit of playing along. to blend in with the throng of donors and museum dignitaries, smiling and laughing and whatever else it is rich people and people who want their money do.
kate rarely leaves barty's side, playing up the wide-eyed graduate simply glad to be there to a t. given this is barty's home court, she graciously takes her cues from him, letting him glide them along the floor to greet and mingle with so-and-so as he must. during a brief reprieve between elbow-rubbing, kate finally gets to unhinge her jaw from all that stepford smiling and relax a little. ]
Good decision on the dessert, by the way. That cheesecake was disappointing.
