*on the school roof because that shit usually comforts him, trying to hide out and ride out the fact that he just got fear gassed by crane ;___;*

*gripping his bow so hard his knuckles are white and trying not to scream*

*saw him skitter up there and cautiously follows him* Clint, you need to take a breath.

[ilovearrows]

C-Can't. *tries to gulp in air anyway* What's-- fuck, what's happening to me.

[mockingmorse]

I saw Crane spray something at you, it must have been a hallucinogen or something. Now you have to listen to me, Clint. *grips his shoulders and shakes him* This is temporary, you understand? You're going to be fine.

[ilovearrows]

Someone's screaming in my ears it won't stop. *grits his teeth*

[mockingmorse]

I heard him say something about fear gas, this is just playing into your insecurities. So man up, Barton, you hear me?

[ilovearrows]

For a minute there, didn't even know where I was. *bites down hard on the inside of his cheek to stop his teeth chattering*

[mockingmorse]

*cups his cheek with her hand and forces him to look right at her so she can make sure he's actually lucid* Yeah, he got you pretty good.

[ilovearrows]

*shudders hard* Make it stop, please make it stop.

[mockingmorse]

*her heart breaks a little at the sound of Clint begging, Clint should never be reduced to begging* Come on, Barton... *hugs him close to her* Don't get all weepy on me.

[ilovearrows]

*hides his face* Trying.

[mockingmorse]

Try a little harder for me, will you? Otherwise I'll have to try some cognitive recalibration and I'm pretty sure you don't want that.

[ilovearrows]

*shaky laugh* Don't hit me.

[mockingmorse]

I won't for as long you don't give me a reason to hit you. *smooths his hair* You feeling any better yet?

[ilovearrows]

Keepin' my eyes shut, can't see 'em then.

[mockingmorse]

Can't see who, Clint?

[ilovearrows]

*laughs kind of hysterical* 'Course you can't see them. Marks, hits, all here.
