Comforting headcanons

Needed my own comfort so I wrote this

—————

• One thing we all know about Clint Barton is that he is always one to smile, even in the face of danger. He does his best to crack a joke to cheer up his team and you.

• So when he sees you crying one day (and it could be over anything) he’s going to do everything to comfort you.

• The first thing he does is put a hand on your shoulder silently testing the boundaries for physical touch.

• If he sees you’re not pulling away he brings you into a hug and whispers reassuring words into your hair. He’ll also place a couple kisses on your forehead to help you calm down.

• If it’s clear you don’t want physical touch he sits there with you silently, it’s his way to show you that you’re not alone.

• Once you’ve stopped crying he’ll ask if you want to talk about it. If you do talk about it he’s there listening, and as much as he loves to talk he won’t say a word until you’re done.

• If you don’t want to talk about it he’ll offer some distractions. If you want to eat he’ll bring you lunch/snacks/drinks. Clint is also a movie guy so he’ll have some comfort movies ready on the tv for you both to watch.

• Clint doesn’t like the idea of you being alone during your sad times, once you’ve been dating a while he’ll be so in tune with your emotions. You could be on a different floor in the tower and he’d know if you’re upset.

• While he’s comforting you he’ll always try to make you smile. I mentioned in my dating headcanons that he loves making you smile, so seeing you cry breaks him.

• Once he’s able to get a smile out of you he knows he accomplished his goal. He won’t leave your side the rest of the day in case you’re still upset.

• Clint refuses to let anyone piss you off further. He will protect his baby to the ends of the earth! The team will definitely pick up on your mood based on how gentle he is with you. Every now and then you’ll get a small smile or some encouraging words from the team.

• Overall 10/10 would receive comfort from Clint Barton.
