clint barton // hawkeye // the ronin
"i'm starting to think we mean different 
people here, natasha."

the man with perfect aim and quiet pain.
born into chaos and raised with scars no one saw, 
clint barton learned early how to survive - 
and how to protect those who couldn't.

he didn't have a serum, a suit of armor, or a 
god's power. just a bow, a handful of arrows, 
and deadly precision.

recruited into shield, he became their sharpest 
weapon - until he chose not to be just a weapon anymore.
he chose to fight for people.

he saved natasha romanoff when others would've
 killed her. stood beside the avengers when the world 
was ending. and when it all fell apart, he became something
 else - something darker - before finding his way home again.

his anchor was always his family. a secret farmhouse, 
soft laughs, a life untouched by war. he fought for them.
he fought for her. he fought for redemption.

clint barton isn't flashy.
he doesn't seek glory or praise.
but when the world is falling apart,
you want the guy who never misses
standing at your side.
