Um, no but as the official superhuman namer in my world, Hawkeye is a total archer codename, come on.

[ it's obvious if you're an ubernerd ]

Is he an archer too? how many of you are there and hold on - I'm hating on the color scheme but The Arrow is legit awesome.

[ladybro]

[ she chuckles 'cause...really? official superhuman namer? she knows some people who could take advantage of a service like that. ]

Yep. He shoots. It's -- it's just him and me, really, who trade on the name. The story's a little complicated.

[benames]

Girl, it can't be just you two! superheroes come with teams these days. You know, people who should be your eyes and ears while you're out there Hawkeying! and - they can be your medical staff, too. and make your gear.

[ neutrally ]

I might be a part of a team like that, maybe. Probably.

[ladybro]

Oh! Uhm. Two Hawkeyes. I just meant there were two of us with the same name. We both of us belong to our own teams -- his is...uh, a little more recently active than mine.

[ and now boasts two members that used to belong to hers. is she a little bitter about it? certainly. but it's not really the appropriate time to voice that bitterness. ]

What's yours like? Your team?

[benames]

Oh? well. We all help our superhero, the Flash. He does the super-speed, I do the engineering of the suit and most of the toys, Caitlin does lab work and she patches him up when he gets injured which - happens.

[ a lot. ]

We're a crime-fighting unit, yes ma'am.

[ladybro]

The Flash, huh? So what does the Flash do?

[ you can see the gears working behind her eyes. she's already trying to guess. ]

[benames]

Protects Central-city against meta-humans - humans with superpowers who have gone wrong. You know, the usual, fight the bad guys, save the day and do all of that as the fastest man alive.

[ because screw you eobard and zoom, his boy is the best boy ]

He's pretty awesome.

[ladybro]

Enhanced speed? [ kate smiles -- she sorta almost dated a guy like that. ] Yeah. I know the power. But the two speedy guys I've met are both mutants.

[benames]

Definitely not a mutant, absolutely the best meta-human.

[ smiling ]

but you know if you ever needed a tech-genius for your team here -

[ladybro]

[ laughter. warm. ]

I don't have a team here. [ yet. ] But I suppose there already some fully-fledged Avengers kicking around. It wouldn't hurt to start up the Young Avengers once again.

[benames]

And they're tech-team! can't forget about those. Who's gonna make sure you guys have all the things you need? I mean - I could probably Cisco you up with some seriously awesome arrows.

[ ... ]

We could name them.

[ladybro]

[ on the spot audition: ]

But can you make a boomerang arrow?

[benames]

.....We'll never know unless we try.

[ a hum ]

where will we test them?

[ladybro]

There's a makeshift shooting range on the Iskaulit. Or so I've heard. I haven't had anything to shoot with, so I haven't bothered.

[benames]

Nothing to shoot with?

[ hand to his heart ]

We're gonna fix that. We can boomerang arrows and - do you think they'll mind explosives?

[ Cisco... ]

[ladybro]

I'm guessing they're not pro-explosives. My, uh, mentor-guy is partial to the arrows that go bang. But I'm more of a traditionalist, anyway.

[benames]

oh but come on think about a droid trying to get at you while you practice shooting arrows that go boom at them.

[ chinhands ]

oh man, I have to see it. We have to try.

[ladybro]

[ she supposes clint has been-there-done-that with the whole...ultron thing. kate only smiles. ]

Alright, alright. I'll work on getting the bow. You work on the arrows.
