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.

"True. I mean, only Thor has one, and he's basically a god, so he can probably get away with it."

"I want a cape. If I was a super hero I'd have one."

[sonofcoul]

"In that case, I would recommend being extremely careful with it." He pauses. "Or watch The Incredibles a few times before committing to it."

"Yeah," Clint says with a nod. "Practicality is key. Don't want to trip because some bad guy steps on your cape."

[mediumdrip]

"Nah, it'd be a special bad-guy free cape."

[sonofcoul]

"Bad guy free, huh? What if it got caught in a door, then?"

Clint smiles and gets up to clear their dessert dishes.

[mediumdrip]

"Well then it will be bad-door free too!"

[sonofcoul]

"Oh, of course. I'll get R&D right on that."

[from_a_distance]

"It'll give them a challenge. They'll love it."

[mediumdrip]

"Whats R&D?"

[sonofcoul]

"Research and Development. Basically, their job is to make cool stuff."

[from_a_distance]

"Yep. They make all the fun toys."

[mediumdrip]

"Can we go there tomorrow?"

[sonofcoul]

"We'll see."

[from_a_distance]

"Some of what they do is top secret."

[mediumdrip]

"Oh.. I could wear a blindfold for those parts?"

[sonofcoul]

"Let's just say that we'll have to check to see what they're working on before thinking of swinging by."

[from_a_distance]

"We'll find some project you can take a look at, I'm sure. Maybe not tomorrow, but sometime."

[mediumdrip]

"Okay... I guess I can wait."

[sonofcoul]

"Patience is a very good quality to have. It usually pays off."

[from_a_distance]

"That is something we actually agree on," Clint says, starting to wash their dishes.

Blaine moves the stool back to help out.

Coulson stands and goes over to grab a couple towels.

And between the three of them, the dishes are easily taken care of.
