re: Brand's age, actually, no. Her age is stated as 28 in the Secret Invasion flashback she has while drifting in space, where she remembers meeting the Skrull ambassador. This flashback takes place immediately after she assumed command of SWORD, which given that the AXM events of "Gifted" take place BEFORE House of M in the Marvelverse has to be at least two or three years before Secret Invasion.

Nick Fury: actually, there is absolutely nothing to suggest she doesn't like him. When Scott is indignant about her in "Gifted" Fury says "yes, she's a peach" and then goes on to business as usual, plus he says she should just tell the X-men the Breakworld business, but he also defends her and says that Brand is responsible for way more than either he or the X-Men and has to keep that bigger picture in mind. At no point does Brand say anything negative about him. In her one scene with Maria Hill in "Dangerous" (which seems to be taking place mid-Civil War, because Hill stopped being director at the end of CW) when Hill says Fury let Brand get away with her thuggish ways Brand retorts Fury was the reason why she filled SHIELD in at all. And that's all she ever says about him.

Possibly more later.
