I am Coming Home: ENDGAME SPOILERS LIKE WOW GUYS

[blind_devil]

Matt really didn't have time to process the fact that he'd been dead five years before an updated version of his armor was being shoved at him and the wizard guy was snapping at him to put it on. Hell he'd barely had time to process that Kate was standing next to him  before they were getting ready for battle. The only thing keeping him from losing his mind and senses was the fact he had one hand buried in Lucky's fur. His mind was racing thinking of everything and everyone he might have missed. The person most on his mind was Clint Barton.

They had been flirting on and off for months and now any chance he had might have been taken away by some insane purple grape with delusions of grander. And for a born and bred New Yorker like Matt that was a little bit too much to take. So when the portal in front of the three of them opened with a hiss, Matt Murdock, the Devil of Hell's Kitchen didn't hesitate, but charged right through ready to be an Avenger.

Matt strips off his armor mourning the lost of another new version. This had apparently been magicked to hell and back as well, which annoyed him even more. Just once he'd like to hang onto his armor for more than a few minutes. He winces as muscles he hasn't used in five years protest more moving.

Clint waits until the shower is steaming before he steps under the spray, pulling Matt with him letting out a groan as the hot water falls around him, the water filthy as it swirls around and down the drain. He lets out a hacking cough and spits blood down the drain before grabbing a towel and putting it over his face and leaning his head back under the spray. "Think I got a week's worth of cardio..."

[blind_devil]

Matt laughs softly as he spits blood and what he thinks might be one of his teeth out too. "I think I made up for five years worth of catch up training in one day," he says with a quiet cough or six of his own. "My ears are still ringing....too much noise."

[nexttarget]

"I love you body fluids and all, but can we please not sink to the level of spitting blood when showering together." He teases watching Matt's lips, and even though he just said that he leans in and kisses Matt's bloody mouth. "You need the netty pot?" He teases. "My ears are fine... but my hearing aids broke when the uh building fell on me." He shakes his head, grabbing the shampoo and starting to work it through his gritty hair.

[blind_devil]

Matt managed a smile and a sweet return kiss. "Sorry Hawk," he said affectionately, "second nature at this point even with the gap. I do need to clean out my nose though. Might need some sensory dep too just to even out."

[nexttarget]

Even while they are washing up, Clint keeps trailing his fingers along parts of Matt's body, he's doing good holding up a verbal I'm fine front, but the touches are more akin to making sure Matt is still there, actually there. It'd been a flash for Matt, but it'd been five years for Clint, five hard years. "Don't worry about it Batty."

[blind_devil]

Matt uses the touches to reorient himself to the world around him and to Clint in particular. He mirrors the touches careful to not touch too hard when he can feel scars and bruises. Once he cleans out his nose he plans on relearning Kate and Clint's scents as much a he knows Kate will be cranky when Matt gets all cat like on her.

[nexttarget]

Clint leans into the crook of Matt's neck when they are done washing finally admitting he needs the contact. "You're gonna hear some shit about what I did after the dusting." He says licking his lips.

[blind_devil]

"Don't care," Matt replied putting his nose right in Clint's collar bone, "seriously Clint I don't. If I'd been in your shoes I would have lost my shit too. You and Kate and Karen and Foggy are my family. Without you I don't know what I'd do."

[nexttarget]

Clint nods fingers dancing along Matt's side just enjoying the contact with the man that he loves. He lets out a slow breath and nods. "We are a good family, and don't you dare forget Lucky." He chuckles.

[blind_devil]

"Forget the best guide dog ever no way," Matt says with a laugh against Clint's skin, "His bark is better echo location then mine."

[nexttarget]

Clint nods just breathing and enjoying the contact. "Need new hearing aids." He huffs before kissing Matt soft and easy. "We should probably get out of the shower." He snorts.

[blind_devil]

"I'm gonna need new everything," Matt says, "I doubt any of my clothes or my apartment is still in one piece this time."

[nexttarget]

Clint thinks for a moment even if he really doesn't have to, "You could always move in here." He says turning off the flow of water, and grabbing a towel starting to dry Matt's hair for him.

[blind_devil]

Matt goes still. "Did we just have our first kiss and decide to move in together on the same day," he asks quietly.

[nexttarget]

"We're naked in the shower,I think we skipped a couple of steps." Clint laughs, "Just waiting seems stupid now after..." Clint snaps his fingers. "I mean it's living together not getting married... what you're Catholic am I gonna have to marry you to blow you?" Clint grins at Matt.

[blind_devil]

Matt laughs softly. "At this point the church doesn't like to admit people like me aka bisexuals exist and since I don't plan on changing to make them happy because I love you. So yes I'll move in with you."

[nexttarget]

"Good." He says kissing Matt again fingers dancing over the other man's skin in soft affectionate touches. "Wonder if we can get delivery yet." He laughs into the side of Matt's neck.

[blind_devil]

Matt laughs softly. "I hope so because the way things are going and I don't want to leave the apartment," he says, "I don't know about you."

[nexttarget]

"Feeling like I want to crawl into bed for a month." He nods as he pulls on a t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. "Don't think I've really slept slept in the last five years." He says easily a bit of sadness to his voice.

[blind_devil]

Matt nuzzles Clint. "Then let's sleep first for as long as you need okay. We can get food after we wake up."

[nexttarget]

Clint wraps his arms around Matt for a long moment giving the man a firm squeeze. "Gonna have to be my ears until I can get new hearing aids." He says easily, as they start to shuffle toward the bed.

[blind_devil]

"Always," Matt says warmly, "just like you are my eyes when I need you to be."

[nexttarget]

Clint smiles and pulls Matt into bed wrapping his arms around his fellow Avenger. "Thanks Batty." He mumurs nuzzling into Matt's neck.

[blind_devil]

Matt yawns too. "Always Hawk. That's why we work."
