Totally Normal - Natasha and Clint

I can totally see this part happening tbh. Like Clint and Natasha taking his kids to the zoo seems like something Clint would just like do. For those of you who don’t know what Totally Normal is it’s a multichaptered fic on ao3 in which each chapter can stand alone. Basically the just of it is that Peter makes it his purpose to make the Avengers feel super normal for a change.

Read the full story on ao3!

…

“According to this informational packet there’s even a 4D theater!” Peter exclaimed, holding the pamphlet out to Clint. Clint took one of his hands off the steering wheel to swat at Peter’s hand, hitting the packet into Natasha’s lap.

“Clint, you just passed the parking lot entrance.” Nat pointed out, picking up the pamphlet and fingering through it.

“I know that.” Clint gritted, finding a U-turn and going back to the parking lot. He found a spot and parked. Everyone climbed out of the car and gathered near the trunk.

“Does everyone have everything they need?” Clint asked, looking around then staring pointedly at Peter. “Because I’m not coming back to the car.”

Peter put his hands up in mock surrender. “I’ve got everything.” He answered, pointing to his backpack.

“We’re going to the zoo!” Cooper exclaimed, pumping a fist and taking off towards the entrance.

“We’re already at the zoo.” Lila corrected, shaking her head at her brother’s antics, then running after him.

“If you get run over by a car, you’re explaining that to your mother yourself.” Clint warned, calling after him. The kids slowed down immediately, that statement apparently more of a threat then Peter took it to be.

“Hey Clint, there’s a monkey exhibit here. I bet you’d fit right in.” Natasha commented, still thumbing through the packet as she walked.

“Ha-ha very funny- Cooper, Lila, get back here!” Clint called, his children running just a bit too far for his liking. They turned around and grinned at him mischievously before continuing on, walking at a fast pace and nudging each other. “God, why did I agree to this? This is a terrible idea.

“Because I suggested this amazing idea.” Peter replied, almost skipping with excitement. He hadn’t been to a zoo since he was really little with his mom and dad and he didn’t really remember the experience. It wasn’t that Ben and May hadn’t ever wanted to take him, but money was tight. Then with Ben’s death and then May’s a couple years later, Peter just never had the chance to go again.

That is until Peter had come across an ad for the Central Park Zoo on the internet while watching vine compilations. He immediately had gone to Tony with the idea, who had suggested bringing it up to Clint. Clint took advantage of the idea to give Laura a day off to relax. He’d talked Wanda and Bucky into babysitting Nathaniel (Bucky hadn’t been necessarily opposed to babysitting duty, but he had gone and hidden every magnet in the common room), then had gotten Natasha to go along with Peter, him, and the kids to the zoo.

Clint, Nat, and Peter walked up to the two Barton children who were grinning by a fountain.

“From now on we’re sticking together. Does everyone understand?” Clint ordered, taking on what Peter dubbed his ‘dad voice’. The kids nodded and at Clint’s glance in his direction, Peter nodded as well.

“Hello, how can I help you?” The attendant at ticket sales asked as they walked up. Peter noticed her nametag read Marsha.

“Hi, can I get 3 adult tickets and 2 child tickets please?” Clint asked, giving her a smile.

“That will be $89.75, and I will need to see an id.” Marsha replied. Clint showed her his drivers license and passed over his Stark Industries credit card, funded by Tony because contrary to popular belief, he could be nice sometimes.

Marsha checked Clint’s id and inserted the credit card into her machine, which printed out 5 tickets. She held them out to Clint. “Here you go, have a nice day!”

“You too.” Clint shooed his kids and Peter away from the ticket booth and to the entrance, Nat following closely behind, amused.

They made it through the entrance, turning in their tickets, and got their bags checked. Peter was surprised that they didn’t search Nat’s body because he knew for a fact, she at least had four knives on her, all of which were against the rules.

“Where to first?” Clint asked, looking around the group.

“Sea lions!” Cooper shouted.

“Sea lions are boring. I want to see red pandas!” Lila exclaimed, shooting a glare at her brother.

“I think that we should go see Alex, the king of New York City.” Peter inputted, grinning.

“Who’s Alex?” Cooper asked, glancing at Peter quizzically. Lila matched her brother’s look of confusion.

“Have you guys really never seen Madagascar? It’s like a classic.” Peter asked in disbelief. The two kids shook their heads. “That is extremely sad and needs to get fixed. We’re having a movie night sometime and watching Madagascar.”

“We’re going to birds first, then insects.” Nat announced, bringing the conversation back to the task at hand. Lila and Cooper pouted but knew that Nat was like their mom; once her mind was made up, it wasn’t going to change. However, they got over themselves pretty quickly and bounced towards the bird enclosures.

“So, what birds are we looking for specifically?” Peter inquired. He had a hunch but wanted to be sure.

“Hawks.” Nat said, grinning. Clint rolled his eyes and his kids burst out in laughter.

“Macaws, crows, who keeps crows in a zoo? Oh, here they are, hawks.” Peter listed, stopping in front of the hawk enclosure.

“Oooo they’re so pretty.” Lila cooed. The hawks’ brown patterned feathers glinted in the sunlight. They flew gracefully around until one hit the window, stumbled a bit, then flew swiftly the other direction.

“Heh, that one’s like you dad!” Cooped yelled, pointing at the bird who had just hit the window. Peter bust out laughing and Clint rolled his eyes.

“Don’t think that I don’t know you wanted this to happen.” Clint said, looking at Nat while the others laughed.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Nat replied sweetly. Clint rolled his eyes and ushered the group to the spider exhibit.

In the spider exhibit were all different types of spiders, but Peter headed straight for one specific type.

“мама-паук, I found your friends.” Peter called, pointing to one of the glass tanks. Nat came over and looked at the spiders over his shoulder.

“Black widow.” Nat read.

“Yeah, they’re pretty cool, but they’re not the coolest.” Peter said, waving his hand.

“And what is the coolest?” Nat asked amusedly.

“The black widow standing behind me.” Peter replied grinning.

Nat engulfed the teenager in a hug. “I love you ребенок-паук.”

“Love you too мама-паук.”
