[When he notices the extra light in one pathway, he internally groans. Yeah alright, he's been caught - no duh, he's rusty (and purple for crying out loud) - and there's almost definitely going to be a brawl once he leaves the safety of the vent.
Darn, he was just starting to get used to the dingy smell - not.
Still, he's not about to jump out unprepared, hence why he fires a smoke arrow down into the room before he swings out himself with a far more malicious arrow notched and ready for firing at the first sign of trouble.]
I'd rather not play rough if we don't have to, but if you've got a bone to pick with SHIELD that requires infiltration, there's a good chance we're not on the same team.
[...Smoke arrows. She really should've expected this.
Her eyes dart around as she strains her ears, trying to listen for his next move, but knowing that she's at quite the disadvantage to not be able to see a thing.
...The arrows about confirm it, though. Clint Barton, codename Hawkeye, ex-husband and current boyfriend a la "It's Complicated".
...Sigh.]
Here goes nothing... Hawkeye? Don't shoot--I'm on your side.
The smoke is slowly drifting away, and she can see his outline faintly, and she imagines he can see hers too--so she puts away her weapon, trying to look as nonthreatening as possible.
He recognized her from her voice. That's...a delightfully good sign.]
Clint. [thank some god that isn't Loki] It's a pretty long story, and I'm not even sure you'll believe it.
[Once she lowers her weapon, he does the same, stowing his arrow back in the quiver and lowering his bow. Alright, this is getting really, really weird but okay.]
I mean, this isn't really the best place for it - but I have a feeling I'll understand.
Maybe. Can you explain why a SHIELD agent is crawling through the vents on home turf? That's probably the most pressing part.
[And the one that he can't let slide. It's easily the most suspicious part of everything.]
[Thankfully, even before she answers, the smoke clears away, which probably explains part of the question. After all, going from this to this isn't something that's accomplished in a matter of hours.
...though Bobbi is distracted by the important things in life.]
[...okay yeah something's definitely Not Quite Right here. It's too early for a headache, but she thinks she can feel one brewing. It's not like she can just ask "how much of a past do we have?"
Except well. Maybe she can.]
Not quite. I'm not an agent of SHIELD anymore either. And we all know Fury doesn't give going away presents, stingy bastard. [She's affectionate, of course, because SHIELD was her first gig, but wow if Clint thinks she's still a SHIELD agent....]
I can't believe I'm asking this, but--how much history do we have together, Clint?
'Well enough for me to appreciate new uniforms and to know that you're pretty good with a staff - no innuendo intended.'
Nnnnnoooo, doesn't sound that good.]
You... used to be my pilot? And I'm kind of a bad influence but for the record you were totally willing to come along on the infiltration with me - even if you were a mole for Fury the entire time.
Am I supposed to recap the whole Skrull thing too because I really don't have the details on that one.
[........yeah okay she's rolling her eyes at that.]
Clint, please. [PLS] I certainly haven't made any vampire enemies lately.
And I couldn't tell you. One second I was [doing things/secrety spy things] on a mission, the next I was in a SHIELD headquarters I'd never seen before.

Whoa. Vintage.
[NICE PURPLE COSTUME, CLINT-- okay focus bobbi focus.
okay no the costume is really distracting sorry.]
no subject
Whoa. Uh... not vintage.
SHIELD upgrade? How come I didn't get one? Even as a farewell present?
[Fury's totally playing favorites, isn't he.]

That's her first thought. Because uh. No. She's so done with skrulls!!!
...Ahem. Right. So. Not married, not dating, she can work with that, that's so much less awkward.]
Oh, good. I can work with that.
[...uh.]
So, yeah. Hi, Clint. What's up?
[Bobbi he asked for answers, c'mon now.]
no subject
Yeah, I'm not feeling any better about this.
[His fingers may or may not be tightening around the grip of his bow again-]
What do you know exactly?
no subject
Lots of things. First and foremost, I'm definitely not from this universe.
...Even though the Skrull thing seems to keep happening to me and I'm not sure how to feel about that.
no subject
[In which case he has no idea what kind of universe she comes from and he's on edge all over again. Why did this happen to him?]
But hey, maybe Skrulls like the taste of your blood or something. [Clint, that's vampires.]
no subject
Clint, please. [PLS] I certainly haven't made any vampire enemies lately.
And I couldn't tell you. One second I was [doing things/secrety spy things] on a mission, the next I was in a SHIELD headquarters I'd never seen before.
If you've got explanations, I'm all ears.
