"Captain America's been gone two hours already! Just how long does it take to recruit a new Avenger, anyway?"
"As long as it takes, sir."
"Hmmm, very sagacious, Jarvis."
"I only meant that the Avengers do things in their own way, Mr. Gyrich, and in their own time. At least...they used to."
--Peter Henry Gyrich, the government liason person, and Jarvis the butler, waiting for Cap and Falc after the scene in the
previous post.
...I think those two hours NEED FIC. Including the BED in the previous scene.

Avengers v1 18
2 on the off-chance there was a Rational Explanation for the delay*
(Oh, and later issues in that general run, as of 190ish? Falc doesn't do a whole lot, other than growl mentally and otherwise on occasion about his token status, but Hawkeye is HELLA jealous about being replaced by Falc on the team. Which, um, is mostly just a team thing, but given Hawkeye's own special relationship to Cap on occasion, well. My mind goes places.)
