"Shit," Clint sighs, rubbing his face. "Man, we had just got Zeke from the Trailblazers, too, he's a fuckin' kid."
Conveniently forgetting that Zeke was only 3 years younger than him. Still, he'd always been kind of protective of the Trailblazers and sidekicks, even when he was too young, technically, to have graduated from the Trailblazers, if he'd been officially a hero.
Still. His life was already shit when he got caught up with heroing, and you saw a lot more shit in CONDOR than you did in the Trailblazers, generally speaking. He felt so much older than them, sometimes.
He sighs again, and flashes Jess a crooked smile. "Well, I'm glad it wasn't everybody. Me being the senior Alpha Force member would just be a disaster."
