This is absolutely gorgeous. I love how there's all these little bits that Clint *may* know, but that he's choosing to forget. It also makes you wonder exactly what happened to him that he decided to go so far underground that he can't even remember his past life anymore.

I'm kind of hoping that Natasha is still out there somewhere, looking for him.

All the feels this wonderful story evoked, I can't even form a coherent sentence... It really broke my heart a little and makes me wonder what caused him to let go of Clint and turn into Mike... And the end is just wonderful, this in particular:

Clint is forgetting; slowly but surely, time is catching up with him, eating him from the inside out until all that remains is a man of similar physical characteristics as him, who has nothing of what makes him Clint Barton. Clint is forgetting and it's killing him. Or rather, it would be. If he weren't already dead. All the feels!
