001. [Accidental Video]

[worldsbestmarksman]

[This video should be private to Natasha. She gets a ping on her communicator, but it goes out to the barge at large. It should be but it's not because Clint is exhausted and looks - and smells - like he's been living in a tree for a couple of days. The big thing however is that he's dressed in a distinctly purple outfit (not that bad, but. but.) he has an extremely impressive combat bow slung in one hand.

And he is standing over a bear. It's at an awkward angle but there's a thing buried in it's side right between the ribs. Quick death. It's a big bear.

For clint's part there is also a very deep scratch running from one shoulder to his chest but he seems utterly oblivious to it.]

Hey so, remember Bolivia and the guy who was keeping captive animals to use as "cleaners" for his drug business? How did we dispose of the corpses again or was that Coulson?

[He suddenly misses Coulson. Reaching a hand down he pats the bear's head, picking up the communicator.] Also is that a regular thing or what? I really don't want to have to use my arrows to take down perpetually pissed off animals thanks, I mean this might have been a mom or she might have had a severe case of PMS or Cabin Fever or...

[That little public light is blinking. Clint ignores it.] I dunno, you want a bearskin rug? It seems a shame to waste it.

[Honestly at this point it's probably the bloodloss that's keeping him from noticing this is a public video. Those cuts are deep.]


[The post is subsequently locked private, but Clint will still take responses to it. they just might be, really grumpy responses.]

Bear still there? We can use that for the dinner shift.

[worldsbestmarksman]

In what I guess was the CES?

Yeah my- [long pause] You guys are welcome to it.

Caveat being the skin is mine. [bear skin rug okay.]

[with_my_teacup]

[Shrug] You killed it, I wasn't gonna get picky.

I got mine. [He lifts something that seems to be a cross between skin and fur into the camera.]

[worldsbestmarksman]

I was going to say that if I could find a rattle snake and some deer I'd feel like I was back at home or back in time.

[weak eyebrow raise] What is that? I'm not normally a big hunter.

[with_my_teacup]

Not actually sure. Could be from a couple planets I've been on-- or one of the ones I haven't.

[worldsbestmarksman]

...Looks pretty neat I gotta say.

[with_my_teacup]

Yup. These scale patterns are actually real good insulation. I'm thinking maybe a comforter.

[worldsbestmarksman]

..I'm not too big on using...animal blankets. Just decoration.

Take it this might be a regular thing though?

[with_my_teacup]

[What? Clint gets a confused face.]

But it's warm.

What's regular, floods? Yeah, all the time.
