Sundown [Clint|Mina]

Clint nodded in understanding - he knew that feeling too, if he was honest. He’d felt a little apprehensive before coming here as well - a little uncertain as to what he’d be expected to do. “This place sure is unique,” he commented, laughing a little and casting a thoughtful glance back at the mansion himself. “What brought you here, if you don’t mind me asking?”

She watched her breath form clouds in front of her, listening to him, chuckling a bit at what she considered an understatement, that this place was unique. “Me?” she said, taking a deep breath before continuing in a light tone. “Oh, you know, just knocked some unknown substance onto myself and starting to manifest strange powers a week later, no biggie,” she said, sending a wry smile his way. “Actually, it probably isn’t, here at least. What about you?” she asked. “What got you to this point, mentoring kids with crazy skills?”

I missed it.

Well, I hope it’s pleasant sleep, when it happens. How will you keep yourself up until then?

I just won’t close my eyes. It’s simple, if I don’t let my eyes close I wont sleep.

I suppose it is that easy… Well, best of luck to you on your endeavors.

Um, hi, everyone!

circuit-riderr:

Huh, really? Interesting. Why isn’t she here, then?

Oh, well, she got the genius-level intellect and the early graduation without exciting new powers, so I don’t think this would be the best place for her, even if SHIELD found her useful.

Clint smiled, shaking her hand happily. “Clint Barton - and you’d be right; I am a mentor,” he confirmed, slipping his hands into his pockets and looking back at the grounds, watching as the sun slipped lower in the sky - bathing everything in an orange glow. 

He frowned when she mentioned not having had any lessons yet, “You haven’t? And I thought I was late,” he laughed a little, “You won’t have to wait much longer I reckon.”

She shook his hand and then slipped it back into her pocket quickly. The temperature would start dropping soon, with the little warmth the winter sun provided leaving. “Pleasure to meet you,” she replied, smiling over at him. 

The smile faltered a bit as he mentioned starting with her mentor. “I hope you’re right. I’m rather anxious to start,” she admitted, looking down at the path before them. “I’m not sure what to expect and all, from my mentor or myself,” she added, sure that these “lesson” would not be like many other lessons she had, if any.

I have yet to meet the students

“Don’t think that, Mina.” 

“If I thought Mr Stark was a problem, I would have quit long ago. Please, don’t feel scared to talk to me.” 

No, of course not. I hope to see you around the mansion.

Um, hi, everyone!

circuit-riderr:

We didn’t have to do volunteer work, thank God.

I was a junior in college. I just happened to skip a few grades when I was little.

Yes, Isolde did the same. You sound like you’re on the same successful track as her.

Goodness Gracious…

Her shoulders fell and she put a hand over her mouth. “M’feelin’ a wee bit sick, uh huh.”

She looked at the girl with concern. “Have you seen the nurse? I believe there’s one here most of the time, if not always,” she said.

“Th’ nurse?” Golden eyes shined curiously, and the young woman tilted her head to the side. “Goodness, I don’ want to bother anyone, though— I might ‘ave a bit a’ tea, uh huh.”

Mina shrugged. “Well, that’s what they would be here for, so I doubt it would be bothering them,” she said. “I’m Mina, by the way.”

Um, hi, everyone!

Yeah, it’s a big lab outside of D.C. Lots of weird stuff that most people don’t know about, experiments sponsored by agencies that don’t exist. I think that’s how SHIELD found out about me so quickly, actually.

Wow, that sounds really cool. Um, I mean, unless it’s not…

Sorry, I was studying for a biochem major before SHIELD pulled me.

It’s great for them, and Isolde. I never got to help with anything… sensitive, though. And it was a really easy way to get volunteer hours for school.

I was undecided, but I didn’t get a semester in before… well, all this happened.

I missed it.

Nice to meet you, even though it means you’re not sleeping.

It’s okay. I can sleep tomorrow night. Yup. Sleep until morning.

Well, I hope it’s pleasant sleep, when it happens. How will you keep yourself up until then?

I missed it.

hacker-jeremiah:

Yes, thank you. You understand.

I suppose.

I’m Mina, by the way.

I’m Jeremiah Briggs. You can just call me Jeremiah.

Nice to meet you, even though it means you’re not sleeping.
