Today sucks. I’m goin’ back to bed.
Clint you little shit
Aw, arrows–
two kinds of hawkeyes
Baby hawk has a sleep on hulk
“Starting to root for this guy” as in “They sent me to kill her and I made another call” kind of root for this guy? Did he and Coulson make a deal after the whole whoops-Black-Widow-is-now-an-asset-sorry-Coulson deal where Coulson made Hawkeye promise to tell him when he started rooting for the person he was supposed to shoot in the head? How many times has this been a problem for Hawkeye? Is he, like, known in SHIELD for being the agent who might adopt the target you sent him to kill?
I firmly believe that this is what happened with him and Natasha. Like, Fury gives Clint the order, the next thing he knows Barton’s dragging Natasha in being like BOSS CAN I PLEASE KEEP HER I PROMISE TO CLEAN UP ANY BODY PARTS SHE LEAVES LYING AROUND PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEEEEASE
And his instincts aren’t bad, he manages to pick out people who will actually be assets, so it makes Coulson think twice when he says it?
HEAD CANON FUCKING ACCEPTED.
“IF YOU WALK THROUGH THAT DOOR YOURE AN AVENGER” Coulson (heard in the distance): “godDAMN IT BARTON”
And then she kicks major ass and Fury is just like dammit he was right again
“I miss him already…..”

#How they convinced Clint to join SHIELD
BONUS:
based on this text post by purple-fletchings : Clint going to ‘Nelson and Murdock’ when he gets arrested for doing some good deed that goes wrong. Foggy is excited they get to help an Avenger. Matt is just like “r u fucking srs right now.”
One of my favourite things about Age of Ultron is that the Avengers are presented with 2 new super-powered rivals and the only member to really land a solid hit to either of them in the entire film is the very non-super-powered Hawkeye.
Not only that, but in both cases he pretty much just does it out of sheer spite towards them
“OH MIND CONTROL HUH? BET YOU THINK YOU’RE REAL SPECIAL. NICE TRY KID I’VE PLAYED THIS LEVEL BEFORE” *electrocutes Wanda IN THE FACE*
*shoots the glass under Pietro’s feet* “WHAT YOU DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING? HAHAHAHA WHO’S LAUGHING NOW SMARTASS-WITH-A-CATCHPHRASE? THAT’S FOR GETTING ME SHOT”

*something explodes in the distance* *plays banjo slightly louder*
clint barton accidentally breaking his tv remote and is too lazy to get up and change the channel manually so he just lays there on the couch and watches the soap operas. kate coming over three days later to find clint still on the couch with the tv on, a blanket covering him and tears streaming down his face as he whispers, “christine deserved so much better than she got”
