Three Years after the Attempted Chitauri Invasion

"You did NOT just do that!" Clint exclaimed. He stared down at his daughter, his fingers inching to grab his bow out of her hands. “What were you thinking?”

Ariana looked up at him, the too big bow clutched in her small hands. “I did it, Daddy.”

“You did what?” he demanded.

She pointed down the range, the bow tipping over and almost overbalancing her. “I shot it!”

Clint took a deep breath. He tried really hard to be patient with Ariana, but there were some things that just made it difficult. “Ariana, you are not supposed to touch my bow. You know this. What were you thinking?”

Ariana frowned at him. “I just wanted to be like you.”

“Which is why we got you your own bow,” he pointed out. “You’re not supposed to touch Daddy’s bow. For one thing it’s way too big for you.”

Her frown deepened. “But I want to be like you, Daddy.”

Clint laughed at her disgruntled expression. “I know you do. Grow a little bigger, Button. And then we’ll see.”

She pointed down the range again. “But, Daddy. I shot it!”

“You…” Clint turned, looking where she was pointing and blinked. She had indeed shot the target, her arrow just slightly off the bulls-eye. “Yes, you did.” Scooping her up, he hugged her tightly. “That’s my girl!”
