Marvel Sexuality Headcanons - 1/? - Clint Barton - Biromantic Asexual “I don’t know. I was about seventeen when I realized that nobody did it for me sexually. It was a scary time. Yet, I’m cool with it. Katie says I’m her ace archer. That’s pretty adorable.”
House spouse pt. 2
When tony emerged from his lab (in a timely manner thank you very much. He had to visit the stark employees today. Which meant significant less lab time then normal) it was to find Clint nursing a black eye with a doomed moppy expression. And the rest of the avengers hovering and fretting. (Thor seemed especially worried. Which was a surprise.) Except for Natasha who was telling Clint to not be a baby and this wouldn't be like last time. Clint kept replying that they were all doomed. “I take it Natasha won the argument.” Tony announced to the room. “What argument?” Steve asked the same time Natasha replied with “I always win.” Which prompted Clint protesting she didn't always win. Tony ignored them to answer cap. “Something about setting us up as house spouses.” Tony made his way through the kitchen to make a smoothie. Today was definitely a kale pineapple protein day. “Tony gets a pass. He and pepper are cute.” “They're gross. They make out against the counter in the morning.” Clint replied. “Hey!” Tony protested at steves grossed out look. “Bird brains stretching the truth. We were exchanging our morning good bye kisses before she left for work.” “There is no shame is showing off love.” Thor replied. While dumbing what looked like all the ice in the freezer on the table in front of Clint. “For your face.” “I don't need that much! It's just a black eye! “ “Head injuries are very serious to humans. Lady Darcy explained it to me. Even a small bump can be fatal. “ he pleaded with Clint until the archer gave up and pretended to stick his face in the small mountain of ice. Once Thor was satisfied with Clint’s care he turned to Natasha. “What is this house spouse? The words do not translate.” “The stay at home parent in a romantic relationship.” Natasha explained. She tilted her head “you and Jane still together?” “Yes. Our love blossoms still.” “Then you get a pass too. “ “Wait. “ Steve interrupted. “Why is it so bad that Natasha wants to set us up with people?” “She's done it before. And it ended by direct order from fury because the shield base had a shit ton of messy breakups and I mean that literally because we're all spies and assassins and you don't want to combine that with drama.” “It's not my fault they couldn't work it out. Besides. This time it'll be different. “ “How?” Clint demanded “how is it going to be different this time Tasha! “ “No team set ups and and you all are going to write down your preferences.” Clint looked hesitantly hopeful. “That...might work.” “Of course it'll work. I learn from my mistakes.” Clint’s scoff made Natasha advance on him but Thor got in between the two. “Peace lady Natasha. You're friend has a head injury.” Natasha glared at Clint while he stuck his tongue at her behind Thor’s back. Natasha produced a notebook from seemingly nowhere and started passing it around. Tony gulped the rest of his smoothie to keep from screaming. Why. Why was everyone so determined to undermine his clean energy efforts. While Bruce was writing he spoke for the first time. When had he gotten here? Tony hadn't even noticed he was in the kitchen. “Does this mean we can set you up with someone?” He asked Natasha before handing the book back. “No. Having a romantic partner is a strategic weakness and I eat my bed partners.” Steve looked stricken. “You do?” “Wouldn't you like to find out?” She smirked before sauntering out of the room. Tony checked the time. Actually did scream then and ran out of the room. Shit he was late to meet his company people. And he had promised pepper to do the rounds today. Shitshitshit
(Inspired by an rp with @sardonicsymphonic) Clint is ace, and at first absolutely mortified by the thought of anyone finding out. He's internalized the fact that it's unacceptable for anyone, especially a guy, to have no interest in sex. He's also fearful that his abusive childhood and lack of connections to others might have contributed to his sexuality. He's had sex before for the benefit of who he was with at the time, but never really wanted or sought it out. That lead to the disintegration of several past relationships, including that with his ex-wife. One of the first people who figures out his sexuality is Natasha, who struggles with her own sexuality. She's the one who promises him that one day he's going to find someone who has the same needs as he does. The first time he uses the word "asexual" out loud is to Kate Bishop, who just nods and accepts it. She then later calls him an "ace archer," while cracking up. Kate uses her youth, her own sexuality (she's realized she's bisexual because of America, of course) and connection to several other lgbtqia people to help Clint find resources, meet other ace people and feel less alone.

Summary: The Avengers are supposed to be a team, but when the team turns into a sexual relationship, Clint just knows everything's going to fall apart, because he's asexual, and suddenly the team is something he can't be a part of. Being alone is the last thing in the world he wants, and he'll go to desperate lengths to keep his friends with him...
Reader notes: This. Yes. Writer was really great with illustrating the confusion/panic/grief Clint was feeling. Really well-handled!
I have a sudden desire to see the scene from the incredibles (i.e. the tony loaf scene) played out with the avengers.
Steve isn’t eating, and tony’s like, we’ve got food and you need to eat because you have a super soldier metabolism
and natasha in the corner goes “he’d eat it if it were tony loaf”
and steve would 100% wink at tony who would blush
i would totally be down for clint being all, nat wtf does that mean? is that an innuendo? you know i can’t tell
