Summary
You knew that working at a highly praised, fine dining restaurant in New York City was going to be brutal. You're a professional, but you're human, and some mistakes are bound to happen. Instead of allowing you fix it, your boss has it out for you and refuses to let anything go. Always finding a way to criticize you. He wanted to watch the fire in your heart fizzle away until you're completely burnt out on doing the thing you love most.
After you're fired you gave up on pursuing your passions in order to avoid slipping further into your depression, but when Tony Stark seeks you out and offers you a job there's no way he'd let you say no. He'd been a frequent guest at the restaurant, has had you cater for his parties, and he knows you. So after sending back a meal he did not like, and finding out about your firing, he had come up with an idea. The Avengers needed a live in chef, and you needed your confidence back. You accept his offer, the threat of your eviction not giving you a choice, but you have your own requests. Nobody can be in the kitchen while you cook. Only it doesn't last long until a couple of curious super soldiers start ignoring your one request.
