Kate's return has worried Will, he knows her world has great and complicated troubles and he hates that there's only so much he can do.

So he's outside at the range firing arrow after arrow into the targets, its restful to hear the thunk, thunk of arrow into straw.

Later perhaps he'll move to the peals but for now, its arrow after arrow as he works to keep his temper in check.

"Give ye 'nother rub this eve an a bath."

"That sounds wonderful," She nuzzled against his back more, and sighed.

"Are you all right?"

"Well 'nough, just worried an wishin' I could do more, same as always. Talked to Guppy, 'e's thinkin' 'bout doin' this trip to Disneyland soon. Think it sounds lovely."

"I know, sweetie, I feel the same when you're in Sherwood." She smoothed one of her hands over his back. "We're both still figuring out how to fit in each other's world."

She added about the Disney trip, "It does, went to the one in Florida as a kid with my parents and Susan. We went more toward the off season so it was quieter."

"Aye, think will do us all some good. Love ye."

"We need some time to relax. Love you too, Will."

She came around to the front to stroke his face before kissing him.

"Want anything special for dinner?"

"Ye choose, love."

"How does lasagna sound then?"

"With chocolate cake for dessert."

"Deal. Maybe eat it down here in a booth? We can go upstairs later to relax."

There were some other things she wanted to mention. At least about how the blackmail attempt was handled even if one part might have been questionable.

"Sounds nice, aye. Let me collect me arrows."

"Sure, you need any help?"

"Nay, but ye need na go far."

She nodded, and linked one of her hands with his as he gathered.

It doesn't take him long to gather his arrows and unstring his bow. Then he shifts his arm around her waist and head back to the Bar.

She smiled more as she settled in close by, resting her head on his shoulder.

"I don't think either Osborn or those wannabes will be bugging us for a while. Not after we showed them up."

"Tell me 'xactly what 'appened."

"We checked the kids out, and most of them. They're not ready, they don't really care about doing the right thing, or they don't even know what they want yet. There was only two of them that looked like we could work with them, but the rest? No way. So we told them, they got pissy about it, and one of them contacted Osborn to bring the muscle. We fought, and it was looking bad a few times. But a couple of them, uh Enchantress and Coat? They came through, and helped settle things down with us."

She then laughed, "Oh, oh, one of the best parts? Eli or Patriot I should say, he punched Osborn in the head, and floored him for a moment. Even in that stupid 'Iron Patriot' armor of his. It was incredible."

"Good, knew ye'd set the sort o''xample ye need to."

He leans over and kisses her on the mouth.

"Yeah, maybe some of them will get their act together. I don't know." She still thought Enchantress was being pretty ditzy at times. Good thing most guys still like smart women. Like hers.

She made a pleased sound in the back of her throat as they kissed.

"Mmm-mine."

"Sure ye could aid 'em least if they'd let ye. 'ard to ask for 'elp."

"Yes it is." And she knew she could be guilty of that too. "Took care of that Danny, he can't blackmail me now. Not with Vision and Wiccan's help there. Everybody saw Kate Bishop and Hawkeye in the same place at the same time. There's no way he could prove it otherwise."

"Na right to try an trick ye by who ye are."

"He's just a bully and a murderer. I only just found out he killed his mother." A brief look of guilt flashed across her face.

"Then again, he didn't know his mom used to be Princess Python, this supervillain until I told him."

He hugs her, "Sounds like ye did yer best, love with an easy choices."
