Comic booking it

[from_a_distance]

Clint was not one to frequent comic shops. In fact, he usually stayed as far away from them as possible--not because, like the other Avengers, he was afraid he might be recognized, but because he was pretty certain he wouldn't be, and that got a little old after a while.

But Coulson had been moping because he couldn't get in to get his Captain America comics for a couple months, and Clint didn't like to see Coulson moping, so he decided to stop by and pick them up for the agent. He'd probably just drop them on his desk when Coulson wasn't around, but at least he knew it would make the man smile.

"Pretty much anything you want to watch. Ever."

[from_a_distance]

"Yep," Clint agrees with a smile. "You name it, we can get it."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine's eyes widened a bit. "Wow..." he said, but before he let himself get carried away with the idea. "Um, let's go to the training room now. Will anyone be there?"

[sonofcoul]

"It's possible." He pauses for a moment. "We could ask JARVIS."

[from_a_distance]

"We definitely could do that," Clint confirms. "JARVIS? Is anybody in the training room at the moment?"

"Captain Rogers and Sergeant Barnes are currently training," JARVIS offers.

[mediumdrip]

"Captain? Is that the Captain or another one?" This time he looks at Coulson excitedly, hoping he'll tell him it's Captain America.

[sonofcoul]

Coulson's smile is remarkably close to a grin. "It's definitely the Captain."

[from_a_distance]

Clint laughs and rolls his eyes fondly. "Come on, fanboys, let's go see the Cap."

Blaine moves to Phil and grabs at his hand. "Come on, come on," he says, pulling him out of the room so that he can lead them to the training room.

[sonofcoul]

He laughs. "Okay, okay. Let's go." He heads off, making sure Clint's behind.

[from_a_distance]

Clint is definitely behind, grinning at the pair of them. "I don't think he's going anywhere. You won't miss him."

[mediumdrip]

"But what if aliens attack or something? Which way is it?"

[sonofcoul]

"It's actually downstairs. Elevator again."

[from_a_distance]

"Safer down there," Clint points out as they get into the elevator.

[mediumdrip]

Blaine tries to wait patiently as they make their way downstairs. He ends up squeezing Coulson's hand a little in nervousness.

[sonofcoul]

Coulson looks down at Blaine and smiles in understanding. "Don't worry. He's really nice."

[from_a_distance]

"He's basically nicer than anyone I've ever met," Clint adds, smiling at both of them.

[mediumdrip]

"Are you sure? What if he doesn't like me?"

[sonofcoul]

"I am absolutely positive. Even if you open your mouth and the most embarrassing thing you can think of somehow comes out, he'll still be nice, and he'll still like you."

[from_a_distance]

"Oh, really?" Clint says with a smirk. "The most embarrassing thing you can think of?"

[mediumdrip]

"I don't even know what the most embarrassing thing I can think of is..."

[sonofcoul]

He completely pretends not to have heard Clint's inquiry. "No matter what it is, I promise he's probably heard worse."

[from_a_distance]

Which Clint notes with interest.

"Like I said, nicest guy ever."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods at that, getting ready as the elevator slows.

[sonofcoul]

And when it stops and the doors open, Coulson glances at Blaine. "Ready?"
