Hey, I'm not the one telling other people how to do their facial hair.
[ This is a conversation they never quite finished, even if it got dropped after the Snap for the most part. But he already explained to her about "shared life experience." He doubts she's forgotten despite how long it's been. ]
"Sort of?" I punched Hitler over 100 times, don't forget.
I didn't tell you HOW to do it. Just that the beard was nice. Which it is. The scruff looks good on you.
[ How much 'shared life' counts as experience at this point? Because she's pretty sure she's got all the Avengers beat hands down by now. And anyone else she can think of, for that matter.
...Then again, she sort of fails at the whole 'alive' part in general these days so maybe she just disqualified herself again anyway. ]
Maybe if you'd actually made contact on any of those punches, I would be way more impressed.
[ It's not like Natasha hadn't told him as much even when they were on the run, when he first grew the beard out. But he'll leave it at that, mainly because he's still not very good at taking compliments. ]
You know, it's actually kind of hard to pretend to punch someone.
Anyway, I'll definitely make sure to reach out to Hilda and organize a training schedule with her.
Oh, yeah. About that. She'll probably play hard to get, but I trust you to be convincing. Don't let her con you out of it by batting her eyelashes at you.
[ Is Steve even susceptible to that sort of thing? It doesn't work from her, of course, but he knows her too well by now. Better to warn him, just in case. ]

[ Understatement of the year. ]
I'll let you know how the first session goes.

It's why I asked you. Sam wouldn't last five minutes before caving, the softie.
Good luck. [ He might need it. ]
