call and response
rating: pg
characters: Clint Barton, Natasha Romanoff
warnings: none
summary: "Stay with me," the woman he has brought in asks, and Clint has only one answer he can give. (The evolution of Strike Team Delta, in three questions.)

author's note: Day 6 of 12DoW clean out.

"Stay with me," she says quietly, this woman who has been on her own for so long, who still looks for exits and sight lines and the nearest threats she must defend herself against.

I love the quiet moments between them. This is poignant, yet sweet. I really enjoy the way you write these two.

Thank you so much! The quiet ones are my favorite kind to write and read, and it's good to know I'm not the only one.

Perfectly balanced, lovely writing. *sighs happily*

*grins* Fantastic! I was actually worried about how the third part would integrate with the first two, given that it was written so much later and from a different place. Which just makes me doubly glad to hear this. Thank you!
