he hasn’t really had the time to take it under ADVISEMENT, but it’d probably mean less trouble in his life, less enemies and unpleasant interactions leaving him teetering back and forth between reaching for a weapon. as it stood, he hadn’t. but sometimes it was safer to air on the side of CAUTION.
❝ you’re talkin’ about a waltz. BIG DISTINCTION. i’m more interested in a short, kind of unpleasant looking guy with a comb-over, and while we’re on the subject —
do you USUALLY hang around places like this? ❞
ky could have simply said the guy wasn’t here or even better – pointed him in another direction. of course, that would have meant more motivation then he had, and it more than likely… it meant he was being helpful. so, he opted for the more sarcastic option.
❝ do you? ❞
a simple question. one that was filled to the brim with sarcasm. not that the answer mattered – not to him at least, but all the same, ky knew it had to be asked one way or another.
❝ as it stands… what i enjoy is you giving me some peace or is that too much to ask?❞
❝ you ever considered workin’ outta someplace that doesn’t scream GENERIC BADDIE you’d get more visitors. ❞
clint barton WASN’T snooping — he happened to be there, alright? [ it was his defense, and he’d stick to it ] he’d been in the NEIGHBORHOOD following a local dealer who’d been peddling his wares too close to clint’s home, and he’d spotted the place, and pegged it as the kind where PROBLEMS came from [ and so he’d jimmied the window open ] it’d been right where he’d lost the dealer, it made SENSE.
❝ i’m just lookin’ for WALT, ‘right? if he’s not here, i don’t need to be. ❞
the only reason ky was here in the first place was due to the fact he was looking for answers. he’d been down this path before and the problem was each time things got worse – much worse actually. this time, the only reason he was following the same trail again was due to the fact it was easier to put his mind towards something constructive than to go back to his usual amount violence.
❝ have you ever considered not being annoying? ❞
a simple question. one that ky didn’t expect an answer to, but all the same, he knew it had to be ultimately be asked. after-all, while they might have been looking for someone – that didn’t mean ky couldn’t use them… even if it would backfire in their own face eventually.
❝ — an’ i never heard of a walt – sounds like some sort of dance. ❞
