Ish.<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Avengers Tower (Formerly Stark Tower) NYC<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Open, Specific - Wasp, Captain Marvel, and Hawkeye<br/><hr/><br/>Unfortunately, Clint has no intention of sharing this Pot of Coffee. In fact, recognizing the hunt for a mug when he sees one, he does something potentially life threatening just out of pure spite. When Hope comes closer with the mug hoping for some black gold love he holds up a single finger to slow her down - and finishes the pot.<br/><br/>Seriously, like a frat guy with alcohol he just holds his breath and starts to up everything that's left like Thor downs Mead. The Hot Nector of Life passes through his lips and he refuses to even look her in the eyes as he does it. Is that still steam coming off of it? Holy fuck, is that Coffee still hot?<br/><br/>Yeah, you learn to do things like that when you've been both Circusfolk and a SHIELD Agent. He sets down the empty pot and bumps his chest to get the last of it to settle.<br/><br/>Then he points to the fact that he started another pot a while ago before he's murdered. Downing Coffee like that might be the closest thing he has to a genuine superpower, but he's not going to be a Villain about it. He locks eyes with Hope, whether as a challenge to his coffee authority or in apology not even he knows.<br/><br/>"<strong>Cap, I think it's time for the Apple.</strong>" he finally says, turning to Captain Marvel herself. Apparently the squad leader this time. Things change, at least his nickname hasn't.<br/><br/>"<strong>You want in, Bishop?</strong>"<br/><br/>The Apple.<br/><br/><em>The Apple.</em><br/><br/>He puts on a good show, but Clint had to admit - he wondered if he was losing his nerve. Almost dying does that to you, especially in this crowd. He talks a big game, but in full honesty he wondered if he should return to active duty because of it. Sometimes, it feels like his hands are shaking - but The Apple would be the ultimate test.<br/><br/>It's arguably his simpliest training excercise, and his most difficult. The object of the game was simple. One Arrow, One Apple. Hit the Apple, Win the Cigar. Except the Apple is put on a moving platform behind rotating force fields, moving walls, and plasma jet streams. It's the famous William Tell shot, except the Apple is not only set on William Tell's Son, but then the Son was put into the middle of a battle of cyborgs vs ninjas. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pHfkpQOBNc) And he hasn't even tried The Apple since before he almost died.<br/><br/>And one of his dirty little secrets, having witnesses was part of the excercise. If someone is watching, he HAS to make the shot. Because if he makes the shot he's an Avenger - if not he's just a guy with a bow and arrow.
