Office Hours, Saturday

[so_hawkward]

Clint would much rather be at home drinking beers with Barney than be in his office, but he felt like being responsible enough to do his job today. He had a laptop full of emails to respond to, so it wasn't like he wouldn't be busy.

If anyone asked about Sex Ed though, he wasn't sure what he'd tell them.

"Excuse me, Mister Barton?" May asked as she stepped inside.

[so_hawkward]

Ooh, a friendly old lady. Surely, this conversation wouldn't be terrible.

"That's me," he said, closing his laptop screen so he could smile at her. "Are you here about a student?"

[home4teenheroes]

"May Parker. I'm Gwen Stacy's guardian," May said, taking a seat. "I also know of you. A different version of you, that is."

[so_hawkward]

Clint winced a little at that. "I'm sorry for whatever my other self has done," he said, because really, was any other version of him not a total jerk? "Gwen's great. She's... well, very opinionated."

[home4teenheroes]

"That's a very polite way of putting it," May said with a smile. She was so proud of Gwen. "And don't worry about the other version of you. I've only met him briefly, but he was very nice." Possibly because he also knew what it was like to lose a child. "I'm just a little surprised... considering what he did for a living, to find you here doing this."

[so_hawkward]

"Uh, well, I'm kind of... moonlighting, I guess you could say?" Clint said. "I do probably the same thing for a living, but I'm also here, monitoring the town and making sure the kids don't get into too much trouble."

[home4teenheroes]

"How's that last part working out with these kids?" May asked. She had a smirk. She knew. Kids these days. (And all days. Ever.)

[so_hawkward]

Oh yeah, she definitely knew about kids these days. "They get into trouble whether I try to stop them or not. So I, at least, try to keep them out of the bad kinds of trouble. Hence, Sex Ed."

"Isn't that a little on the nose?" May asked. "What with you being the guys with the arrows."

Look, she thought about that the second she found out Hawkeye was teaching Sex Ed, and she couldn't unthink it.

[so_hawkward]

Clint laughed, shaking his head. "Only a little on the nose?" he said defensively. "It was more that the person who taught it last left and I needed something to teach and... I probably should have thought about it more first, yeah."

[home4teenheroes]

"I'm sure you're doing fine," May said. "At the very least, I haven't heard anything that concerns me. And you know Gwen. I'd hear about it if there was anything."
