25 Unicorn Street- Tuesday afternoon

[throughaphase]

Kitty was really tired of being a literal kitty. She wanted a real bath, and a hamburger, and also opposable thumbs again. It was tougher when Clint wasn't in any shape to help out, either, and it was pretty clear the dogs were over this whole situation, too.

So for now, she was laying on the sofa, emitting the occasional pitiful meow as she tried to work the remote to turn the TV on.

[For that guy!]

And that was another thing! It had been way too long since Kitty had even been able to talk to her husband, and she didn't like that at all. She meowed back at him and tried to smack harder at the remote in frustration.

And all of a sudden, she wasn't a kitty anymore, and for like the dozenth time she was just Kitty, accidentally naked in the living room.

[so_hawkward]

Clint took one look at Kitty and started squawking louder, flapping his wings as he perched on the arm of the couch, until he was suddenly draped over the couch, equally naked.

"--and I can't even do anything about it! Uh," he said. "Hey sweetheart."

[throughaphase]

"There are days I hate this town," she said, sitting like a real person becauseshe doubted her previous position was decent. "Welcome back."

[so_hawkward]

Clint stood up quickly, and he would have covered himself a little but, well, there wasn't anything going on that Kitty hadn't already seen before. "You too. Ugh, I swear, being an animal always leaves a weird taste in my mouth."

[throughaphase]

"I know. I need clothes, and a toothbrush, and food and a shower and I don't know what order in which to do any of it," she said.

She was maybe going to check him out a little anyway, because she was a girl again and her eyes worked.

[so_hawkward]

"Okay, how about we shower, then get clothes, then eat real food," Clint said. "That seems like a logical order, right?"

[throughaphase]

"Yes. And properly feed the dogs. Who are probably pissed at us," Kitty winced.

[so_hawkward]

"They love us and didn't eat us while we were their size. I'm taking that as a good sign," Clint said. "Maybe we should feed them first so they'll really love us again though."

[throughaphase]

"Yeah, probably," she said, getting up again to go to the kitchen. She felt like she should have a blanket or something to wrap around her, not because Clint hadn't seen it all before, but she tried to keep Rook and Lucky innocent. "How long do you think we were like that?"

[so_hawkward]

Clint looked around for a minute and found his thankfully unpecked phone in the kitchen. It was dead, but when he plugged it in, he was able to get the main screen to come up. "Uh, it's Tuesday. The 26th, I mean."

[throughaphase]

"Ugh, now I'm even more annoyed," Kitty complained, phasing her arm into the cabinet to get the dog food because doors were for suckers. "Too long. Too, too long."

[so_hawkward]

"Way too long. But then again, if anything weird happened over the weekend, we missed it?" Clint pointed out.

[throughaphase]

"If we're going to miss anything weird- and if anything else weird happens July is fired- I'd much rather we missed it because we were in like, Barbados or something," she said, making sure the bowls were filled before deciding she was done adulting.

[so_hawkward]

"We can pretend we're somewhere nice by turning the shower up really high," Clint suggested with a smirk, linking his arm with Kitty's to start leading her to the bedroom.

[throughaphase]

She was perfectly fine to be led right now, too. "I'm so glad to be human right now I could actually fall for that," she told him.

[so_hawkward]

"You say that like my flirting wouldn't normally work," Clint said, pretending to look offended as he led Kitty into the bathroom and got the shower turned on. "I don't think you can resist falling for me."

[throughaphase]

"I can resist you just fine when I feel like it, thank you," she lied, watching him.

Seriously, it had never happened in four years.

[so_hawkward]

"Are you sure? I don't know if I believe you," Clint said teasingly, wrapping his arms around her waist. "I don't think you would have married me if you could resist me."

[throughaphase]

"I'm sure I could. I mean, hypothetically." It wasn't stopping her from leaning into him, though. "There might come a day I have a headache."

[so_hawkward]

"I wouldn't ask you to do anything if you really had a headache," Clint said. "I'd try to help though." He led her into the shower, sighing a little with relief at how nice the water felt. "Oh, being human is the best thing ever."

[throughaphase]

"Oh my god, water I'm not trying to lap up from a bowl," Kitty said, trying to get her head under the water. "I'd say that's weird to say but I'm not sure either of us should care after this."
