I really want to hear your opinion about Kate Bishop
Same as Clint's, really.
No, but really now. I love what Hailee and the writers are doing with Kate. It's amazing. She's... just how I pictured her, really. When they announced they're doing the show, this is what I pictured, and I love it.
I love that she's a young, spoiled brat, that doesn't know anything about the world of superheroes, but desperately wants to be a part of it.
I love that she's a strong young woman, very capable in her skills (arrows, fighting, tactical etc.), but that still has a lot to learn.
I love her fangirling, but I also love the fact that when she's with Clint, she can pull herself together and have a normal conversation with him.
I love the jokes, and the snark. I love the rapport she has with Clint, when they're walking down the street and talking, when they're at their two person Christmas party, when they're fighting on the roof.
I love that it took them four episodes to get to this level of angst.
In the comics, it took 11 issues for this to happen. Kate left Clint, because she didn't agree with a (bad and stupid) decision he made. Really different story than the tv show, yeah.
I like this level of angst, though. Clint is pushing Kate away because he wants to keep her safe. And Kate will stubbornly not do that. It's... It's a very good definition of their relationship, really, and I love it.
I love that she's soft. She loves Pizza Dog, she immediately took him in after she saved his life. She gets really soft when she sees Clint talking to baby Nate. She wants her mom to be happy, even if it is with this jerk she doesn't like. She wants to get Clint back to his family for Christmas, and she wants to bring up his morale until then.
She cares. She wants to help people. She cares about Clint.
She's funny. She's strong. She's drop dead gorgeous. She has great millennial fashion sense. She's awkward. She's overly excited.
What's not to love? Really now. She is perfect.
But more than that... Kate Bishop, in the Hawkeye tv series... she has so much potential for good things to come. Her character can go on to do so much in the mcu. Be it more tv, or more movies, be it leading the Young Avengers or making a training facility for future Hawkeyes after Clint really retires... I'm really excited to have Kate Bishop in the mcu.
And right now? I love her and I'm really happy to get to know her.
