Banned!
Standing with the avengers. You quickly glance at your clipboard, briefly explain their housing situation before they leave.
“Okay I have you all booked in a secluded cabin outside the Sonoran Desert National Park for base operations. The place has already been swept for any bugs."
"Great but I’d rather stay in Phoenix to keep a better eye on the situation.” Clint tries to argue the point like always.
“I considered that but with the recent developments I chose against it.”
“No. Clint, you can’t go to Phoenix.” Natasha throws him a look. Derailing the conversation.
“Why can’t he go to Phoenix?" Tony asks, you’re just as confused. This is a completely new revelation.
"It was a long time ago. But there might be a warrant for my arrest?” He shrugs it off. “And Ohio. Maybe some other states too. I can never remember.”
“You just need to remember the song.” Scolding him Natasha bumps his shoulder.
“There’s a song? How many states is it?” Tony’s interest has peak immensely. New black mail.
Clint tries to remember but gives up counting. “I don’t remember."
"Six.” Natasha states in a matter of fact tone.
“What the hell!” Angry at the fact that he is banned from six states and that that no where is that written down. You lose your cool. Everyone’s surprised at your outburst, it’s not everyday that you yell. But you calm back down after a few breaths. “What’s the song then?"
"What are the states where Clint can’t go? Arizona, Utah and Ohio!” Doing a little jig with a smile Natasha continues. “There’s three more states where Clint can’t be; Texas, New Hampshire and Tennessee!”
“My God.” Groaning you can only cover your face in disappointment.
“I’m also not welcome in Europe!” Clint chooses to add with a smile.
“Clint I’m going to kill you. Do you know how hard it is already to be your guys coordinator.” With every word that comes out of Clint’s mouth makes you want to smother him.
“It was years ago. Probably doesn’t matter anymore.” Clint has checked out of the conversation and doesn’t care.
“I doubt that if there are warrants out for you.” Trying to get back to the task at hand you pause. Something doesn’t make sense, he said Ohio. He got banned from Ohio? “Wait a minute I’m from Ohio. What did you do to get banned from shitty Ohio?”
“Ohio? Honestly I don’t remember.” Shrugging he takes a drink.
“I’m pretty sure Ohio is two separate charges. You knocked down some religious billboard and stole a bunch of cheese.” Natasha answers but seems to be fuzzy on the details too.
“The Hell is Real billboard and Grandpa’s Cheese Barn was you!?” Practically screaming you almost jump him. You’re over come with such horror and amazement you don’t know how to feel. All this time and you have been working with the most wanted man in Ohio.
“You know what that is?” Steve’s now interested in what Clint has possibly destroyed.
“Duh! Any Ohioan knows what those are. Starting at the bottom of the state and moving up. Ohio river. Corn corn corn corn. Hell is real. Corn corn corn. Grandpa’s cheese barn. Corn corn. Corn and soybeans. Corn corn. Lake Erie.”
“Really?”
“Sort of sad.” Thor comments.
“Hey! It’s a shitty state but it’s our shitty state. For years people were trying to get that billboard taken down because it was infringing on religious beliefs but it’s on personal property so it’s legal. ” Pointing at Clint. “I can’t even with you right now. I don’t know whether to hug or punch you.”
“What are you doing?” Tony notices you reaching for your phone.
“Oh I’m texting all my friends. I know who the wanted man is!” Abandoning ship you focus solely on texting.
“I didn’t know she was from Ohio.” Bruce whispers.
“What’s Ohio?" Thor leans in asking Bruce. Silently groaning they are going to be the death of you.
