[Clint isn't going to be super duper precious about a car. He likes cars; he's a guy, so sue him. But he's never had any good excuse to go buying up a nice car to bring home. It's really more a sense memory, a moment of hesitation when she reaches for the radio dial. He can hear Coulson so clearly, don't touch Lola. And then it's gone again, save for a little pang of nostalgia. He keeps his eyes more or less on the road and moves on.]

Attitude like his, I bet he also made enemies easy. [There's always going to be some guilt about Pietro. He didn't have to do what he did, the speedy little shit. But Wanda's never hated Clint for it. Even if she wouldn't be wrong to. So yeah, he feels he can make a joke. It's also true; making friends easy also makes one susceptible to the opposite effect.] But it's good to want to reach out and make allies here on your own merits. Decide if someone's safe to confide in first before you go 'hey, FYI, I can read your mind if I want to and sometimes I'll feel your emotions anyway'. Real friends will work with you about it rather than run away.

[Because god knows that there could've been drastically different circumstances for them ending in something much worse. They're lucky in a way, for things to have turned out the way they did. Her part of a team, instead of alone, isolated, alienated.

The alienation still happened anyway, sure, but she still had friends willing to stand up for her.]

Now, young lady, do we need to have a conversation about getting picked up by strangers?

[He's joking. She can handle herself if someone gets weird or handsy. She was getting trained by actual-ass Avengers even without magic in spades to back her up. But he's gotta pull that dad/big brother attitude anyway. It's just baked into his DNA at this point.

And he hasn't gotten to flex those muscles in years.]
