I just totally assumed he was going in deep undercover and it's some stupid secret plan with Coulson. In other words, Ward's still not all that interesting to me.
Buffy: I was regrouping. Spike: You were about to be regrouped into separate piles.

You are using "evil" very differently than I am, Consuela.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
In retrospect, some of Ward's "worst agent ever" moments make sense now. Of course he took a crappy sniper position on the bridge, he wanted Coulson captured. And he obviously shot poor Thomas Nash under Garrett's orders.
Getting mind-controlled by Lorelei was still really stupid, though.

Bah. That article seems to be strongly hinting that Ward is brainwashed.

Actually, that works better for me: it might have been on purpose, if he's trying to form an alliance with her. Also might make the sex not rape.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I wish I could believe this, but I don't see how Lorelei would be useful to HYDRA. It's not like she would play any nicer with them than she did with SHIELD.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Do they not shoot women in the head because that's an awful way to shoot a woman, or because they suddenly remembered 2 to centre mass, or because it's way easier to come back from?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Surely he's brainwashed. That's the vibe I got, at least.
I mean, they made a point of mentioning that Raina was brainwashed. It seems very...pointed.

I'm hoping it's your second option, but think it's probably the third.
