Yeah, Ash and I developed backstories together through... way too much time spent chatting, and all I knew was I really wanted Clint in San Diego. (She mostly handles Nat, I mostly handle Clint; but she writes an awesome Clint, and I... occasionally write Nat? Nat's scary.) Because it suits him, like you said! But also because every time I visit San Diego I do not want to leave.

(Wish fulfillment, man. There's a reason he lives in easy walking distance from Balboa. *laughing*)
