Author Note: The monastry featured is not actually in Tibet, it's in Bhutan. It's called the Taktshang Tiger's Nest monastry, which 'clings to a cliff 2,300ft about the Paro Valley floor', which seemed appropriate :) The Internet tells me the quotes are Budhist quotes; forgive me if they're not.

Clint Barton, in all his messed up glory, joined a monastry in Tibet when he was twenty.
Taught love for all beings, he would make a different call.

Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous!

I love your photo selections and the changes in font.

And is that a hint at possible future children for Clint and Natasha, or more a reflection of their inner-children finding each other? Or is it up for interpretation?

Thank you! I had fun deciding on the pictures and getting the tint/tone right.

Short answer: it's open to interpretation.

Long answer: I wanted to mirror the opening image with angry, lonely kid!Clint. Originally I was going to have the fourth strip start with kid!Natasha, but it worked better to bookend it with kids, in which case the resolving image needed a happier tone. I went for something that could be a 'what if' or inner child thing where neither of them are alone and it's all warm and happy, but with a soft/fuzzy look for memory/wishful thinking but could also work as future children of them as a couple. I as going to do something with outstretched helping hands and the finally holding hands/accepting help at the end there too, but I couldn't pin it down.

Glad you liked :D
