Ding!

Jasin picked up the phone, seeing a message from Kate: Hey darling, my aunt came home earlier than planned. I got everything out while she was shouting at me, and am currently at Grill's place: *address of Grill's apartment*

"Change of plans, Kate's aunt came home and she's currently at this guy named Grill's apartment, you know him?" Jasin questioned.

"Yeah, I do." Clint confirmed. "Lead the way."

Jasin nodded, typing the address in and following the directions to the apartment.

-Skip-

"There's our guy- err- and gal." Grills said, welcoming Clint and Jasin when they opened the door.

"Hey." They greeted simultaneously.

"Snickerdoodle? They're still warm." Grills offered.

"Say less," Jasin said, plucking one off the tray and taking a bite out of it. "This is so good!"

"Come on in," Grills said, leading them to where Kate was.

"Hey, Clint, darling. How was your guys' day?" She asked.

"Hi." A girl behind Kate greeted.

"Hello, it was good." Jasin said, walking over and stuffing the other half of the cookie in Kate's mouth.

"My day's been fine. How are you doing?" Clint asked, motioning towards her outfit.

"Great, yeah. Better than yours, I'd say." She answered.

"So did you get my gear?" Clint asked, stepping forward. Jasin glared at him, moving in front of Kate protectively.

"Yeah. Yeah, they're on the way." Kate answered. "They should be here any minute. Relax."

"What?" He questioned stiffly.

"Check that out," The woman said again, placing fake viking armor on Kate, who stared at her reflection in the mirror.

"Not gonna lie, I look pretty good as a Viking." She said with confidence, Jasin chuckling.

"You look pretty good underneath me, naked." Jasin whispered in Kate's ear, pinching her hip before walking away.

"You know, I made this myself." The woman said, snapping Kate out of her dazed blush.

"No way!" Kate said, astonished. Clint sat down on a table, Jasin sitting next to him.

"By hand." She added.

"Could I hire you to make my next one?" Kate questioned.

"Oh, yeah. I would love to," She sputtered out.

"Hey, wait a second. What if that's our deal?" Grills asked, Both Jasin and Clint raising an eyebrow in question.

"What deal?" Barton asked, looking at Kate.

"We get you the arrows and info, and you get us materials for a new costume." Grills offered.

"Okay, how about enough materials to make your costumes plus three more?" Kate added. "I know two certain people that need a little help with theirs."

"I'm in." The woman agreed.

"Great!" Kate cheered.

"Hey, Orval, you hear that? We gettin' new costumes." Grills said, aiming his voice to another room.

"Kate, I asked you to simply retrieve my arrows, not stage a play." Barton said harshly, standing up quickly. Jasin quickly stood, reappearing in front of Kate protectively.
