25 Unicorn Street- Thursday morning

[throughaphase]

After kinda dying for a minute or two, Kitty thought maybe she'd overreacted a bit on radio. Hey, she had one dead ex and half the people she'd ever known had at least faked their deaths so she was allowed to freak out a little.

Once she'd taken care of that big monster thing and anything else on her way that needed taking care of, she actually did make it to Clint's house, where she stuck her head through the door- literally, of course. "Clint?"


[For the guy, but open to his roomie if she's around!]

"Yeah, it takes a little bit every time," Clint said, sounding annoyed. "I don't know exactly where it's going, but I can take a guess."

[throughaphase]

"Fine, I'll stay phased when I'm out," Kitty said with a sigh. "Yet another reason we need to die less."

[so_hawkward]

...yeah, Clint had finally caught up to a certain part of this conversation. "Wait, we? What did you do?"

[throughaphase]

"...I mean, I got better," Kitty said sheepishly. "There was a monster thing."

[so_hawkward]

"Was it one of the big ones? I freaking hate those things," Clint said. "Are you okay?"

[throughaphase]

"Yeah, I'm fine. I made sure to take care of it before I came here so no one else would run into it," Kitty said. "I'm not planning on repeating the dying thing."

[so_hawkward]

"Me neither. I mean, it's probably gonna happen, but I'm not planning on it." That made it better, right?

[throughaphase]

"Clint."

The temporary thing didn't make it better!

[so_hawkward]

"What? If it's not sticking then the only trouble is running back from wherever you end up," Clint said.

[throughaphase]

"That doesn't mean I like you dying." It was different when it was her doing it!

[so_hawkward]

"I don't like you dying either, but if you're okay in the end... okay, I guess it's still unpleasant to think about," Clint admitted.

[throughaphase]

"This is going to end in me sleeping here till this is over," she warned. Because she had just enough past trauma to want to be sure he came home at night.

[so_hawkward]

"Am I supposed to say no to that? 'Cause I don't think I can," Clint said with a smirk. "You can help me make sure everything's still in working order."

Yes, that came complete with a wink, because Clint was entirely that cheesy.

[throughaphase]

"Oh, you're definitely not allowed to die if that's a risk," Kitty teased.

[so_hawkward]

"Hey, who knows how perfect that technology is? I could probably use someone smart checking me out." It was completely logical and not at all sexy.

[throughaphase]

"You're incorrigible," she said, not sounding at all like she minded. Since she didn't, and all.

[so_hawkward]

"Yeah, but you love that about me, don't lie," Clint said, laughing. "I feel better now about things, thank you."

[throughaphase]

"About all your parts working? We haven't even tested that yet," Kitty pointed out.

[so_hawkward]

"Do you want to?" Yes, yes he was exactly that easy.

[throughaphase]

"Is it bad if I say yes when there are monsters outside?"

They'd have plenty of days to kill monsters. It wasn't that bad to say yes.

[so_hawkward]

"Nah, I think the town will survive without us for a little while."

Or a long while, if he was lucky.

[throughaphase]

"Okay," Kitty said slowly. "Sex, then fighting bad guys, then more sex later. Best plan ever."

Oh, look, a reason for everyone to get back alive at the end of the night!

[so_hawkward]

"Oh hey, I like that last part a lot," Clint said, getting up and slipping an arm around Kitty. "I'll have to be extra careful."

[throughaphase]

"Yes you will," she nodded, sliding her arms around his neck. "And you should really like the first part, too."

[so_hawkward]

"Oh, oh I do," Clint said, giving her a kiss to prove it. "I like it very much."
