"I suppose one advantage of no longer having a pay check coming in, is that no one expects you to show up for work on Monday, either."

Despite -- or maybe because of -- his shitty childhood and the betrayals that wind through his life like a strand of black pearls (and wasn't that last one a doozy?), Clint has always been in the business of chasing silver linings.

"So we could try and see whether those baths are any good for relaxing, not just for dodging goons with Kalashnikovs."

[sweetwatersong]

[hanorganaas]

[desertport]

"I thought you said no goons, Barton -- so what the hell are these guys doing here?!"

Natasha flicks the towel into her attacker's eye, causing him to scream in pain, and watches with grim satisfaction as he slips on the soap and cracks his skull on the granite fountain.

[desertport]

Hee! Beautiful imagery there. :D

[happilydancing]

Hahaha, this is gold. Also there goes Clint with his positivity again! I'm loving all your ficlets!!

[alphaflyer]

Awww, thanks ... they're a great way of procrastinating from doing my income tax. :-)

Clint the optimist!

Love this and the sequel. :)
