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.

"It's not cooking if you're just mixing?"

[sonofcoul]

"I don't do it because I'm not great at it. But I suppose mixing doesn't count."

[from_a_distance]

"It's not exactly complicated."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods. "My mom used to do the cooking. I liked helping her. I can help you two too."

[sonofcoul]

"It would probably end up with both of us helping Barton."

[from_a_distance]

"I can teach you," Clint says with a smile. "Both of you."

[mediumdrip]

"Do you cook a lot?" Blaine asks Clint.

[sonofcoul]

"Lessons. Sounds good."

[from_a_distance]

He shrugs. "Stark's got a chef, and we order in a lot, but I like cooking."

[mediumdrip]

"Does the chef cook for everyone too?"

[sonofcoul]

"As long as they feel like eating, yeah."

[from_a_distance]

"He's pretty good too."

[mediumdrip]

"That's nice of Mr. Stark then, right?"

[sonofcoul]

"Yes, it really is."

[from_a_distance]

"Yeah, he's a pretty decent guy," Clint admits somewhat reluctantly.

[mediumdrip]

"Even if he likes himself too much?"

[sonofcoul]

"Even if he likes himself a bit too much."

[from_a_distance]

"Yep, even so," Clint says, getting up to clear the table.

[mediumdrip]

"Are you going to do the dishes?" Blaine asks Clint.

[sonofcoul]

"I can do the dishes. You guys cooked."

[from_a_distance]

"We can help," Clint says, offering Blaine's assistance without thinking.

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods. "Yeah. We can help. We can rinse and dry."

[sonofcoul]

"You can if you really want to, but it's no trouble."

[from_a_distance]

"Or we could make dessert while Coulson washes dishes."

[mediumdrip]

"What's for dessert?" Blaine asks, clearly derailed by this line of conversation.
