"Sign Language"

---

"I don't know, can you?" Peter signed teasingly, Clint put his hand to his chest as he gasped dramatically.

They burst into laughter. It took them a few minutes to calm down, but once they did Peter gave Clint a blinding smile. "I don't think I've laughed like that in months." He confessed, his smile not faltering.

"So, what do you say about raiding the kitchen while Nat is scolding the others?" Peter's eyes lit up, his smile getting wider. If that's even possible.

"Let's go."

The two of them snuck down the hall, they peaked around the corner when they got to the living room. Clint turned to Peter and taped his arm to get his attention. "The kitchen is on the other side of the living room, and there's only one door to it. Which happens to be in said living room, which happens to have an angry Black Widow in it.... What do you think we should do?"

Peter bit his lip as he thought, he caught sight of the vent grate and his eyes lit up as he got an idea. "Could we maybe go through the vents? Or are they blocked off?" Clint grinned at him.

"That's an amazing idea! I can't believe I didn't think of that." Clint gave Peter a pat on the head before leading him over to the vent. He quickly and efficiently removed the cover. Once the cover was off Clint locked his fingers together so that he could give Peter a boost. Once Peter was in the vent Clint climbed in himself, and they made their way to the kitchen. They then left the vent. Thankfully I don't have to write "vent" anymore. Anywho, Peter tapped Clint's shoulder, once he was sure he had his attention he signed.

"What should we loot first?"

"I'll get some soda. And you can get the chips, they're over there." He pointed to the cabinet that had the chips. Although I don't know why they would have all this junk food considering that they need to stay in shape. But hey, it's needed for the plot. Well, probably anyway. Peter nodded and went over to the cabinet.

Peter opened the cabinet and started to rifle through it. BBQ, Dill Pickle, Salt & Vinegar, Ketchup, Cheese Lobster- wait Lobster flavoured chips?! Peter stared at it for a few seconds before continuing on, 'cause what the actual fuck. Why would anyone eat that? Anyways, he grabbed the BBQ, Salt & Vinegar, and a Hint of Lime that was also in there.

He turned around, and then jumped back onto the counter with a screech. Dropping the chips as he did so. All of that happened because Clint was right behind him, and he didn't notice because he was occupied by Cheese Lobster chips. The rest of the Avengers rushed to the kitchen with their weapons out. They all stared for a solid minute before Nat turned to Clint. "What the hell happened? "

"Uh..."

By the way, Cheese Lobster is an actual chip flavour. You can get it in China. I hope everyone is staying safe with everything happening in the world.

Anywho, bye my gremlins!
