How can you not? It's like a werewolf movie, but in this case a pastor turns into a velociraptor! Honestly, Matt. It would make the perfect Halloween costume for you.
Now I wanna make Punisher memes with honey badgers. Because, I mean, if anybody is going to be the Chuck Norris of the animal kingdom, that's gotta be Frank.
... you know, here I am struggling to get a loan, and some people get paid to make movies like that. Make it make sense, Kate. [He's joking, not realizing he's let slip the firm's money problems.]
I need to be within five miles of you calling Frank that.
Aaaw, you could totally be a pterodactyl! You already kinda fly with your batons, anyway. [Wait, what does that mean? And how come she didn't notice? She knows their relationship has not been the closest for a while, but Kate has visited his office. Everything seemed fine.] You mean the firm? Thought you guys were doing good.
It does kinda feel like that sometimes. Like flying. Glad to know I got the seal of approval from Hawkeye on it. And... it's fine, Kate. We're okay. [Matt just likes his pro bono work too much, and hates taking on cases with assholes just to make money. He knows he has to suck it up and do that, though.]
The man has enough weapons, don't give him any ideas.
You know, it's kinda unfair that both Peter and you can pull that trick and I'm stuck on the ground, running after you or having to get a cab. [That doesn't sound fine at all.] Do I need to talk to Kirsten?
I still wanna randomly call him Honey Badger if I ever get to meet him.
Peter can do it better than I can. Mine's more parkour than webslinging. No! I don't need you to talk to anybody. I've got it. She knows already. We've got it.
I would have been surprised if you hadn't, knowing you.
Yeah, but you still get to do the swing thing. It's not the same with my graphook arrows. Mine's more of a zipline. [Which she still loves, but it's not as impressive.] I could give you guys a loan. Or like, hire you in some more permanent way?
[She remains quiet, too tempted to argue, aware that Matt knows how she feels.] You know money is not a big deal for me. But I get it. [She pauses for a brief moment.] But can you promise me, as in really promise me, Matt. Will you tell me if things are not good?
Katerina Von Bishop, are you trying to lawyer me? [He's almost proud.]
First you say I shouldn't keep extra toothbrushes 'cause of how it looks, now you're asking if I have an ex's curling iron I kept? I think Heather has one she keeps over, though.
Well no, I do need a razor. I was thinking about head hair, not face hair. I do need to shave my beard. I don't really want the shipwrecked hermit look.
... [She licks her lips, suddenly considering something. It's dumb, this doubt she feels. They've shared far more intimate things before.] Dad called me that.
It fits the blood on your shirts, though. [Not that he wears that all the time. But it's fun to tease him about it.] It doesn't. But it would be cool to see you with a different style.
So it's what a five year old you were called, got it. I think it sounds like a very sweet nickname for your dad to have had for you, Kate. I promise not to use it, then. So it can stay a thing between you two.
I want the blood on my shirts to say devil not crazed hermit. [He knows she's teasing.] My style's getting old? I thought it was timeless.
... A little literal, I know. But... It's weird, 'cause Clint uses it sometimes to tease me. He knows I don't like it. And somehow, it still kinda feels okay with him. [Not that she'll ever admit it.] Don't tell him I said that.
Now I want to see you beardy and wearing red horns that look like cat ears. [Because she'll forever tease him about that.] I didn't say that! You're twisting my words! I'm just saying... Something maybe spikier would look cool on you. Once?

Tazmanian devil then? OH! No, I've got it! I've totally got it. He's obviously a honey badger.
no subject
I can absolutely see Frank as a badger. Hopefully the badgers won't be insulted by that.

You don't think he'd shoot me, do you?
no subject
Would I be five miles away if you were getting shot at?
no subject
... A blowtorch, right? Or missile launcher!

I'm gonna take that as a compliment.
no subject
Again, no surprise.

[Lying came easy to him, she knew that by now.]
Also, you don't happen to have a curler, do you?
no subject
A curler as in that hair thing or a curler as in that weird sport?
no subject
The hair thing. Does Heather have one here? She has amazing curls. [A beat.] Any exes left one behind?
no subject
First you say I shouldn't keep extra toothbrushes 'cause of how it looks, now you're asking if I have an ex's curling iron I kept? I think Heather has one she keeps over, though.
no subject
I never said you shouldn't! Just pointed out what it looked like... Besides, it was totally possible. I can't believe I forgot about my hair.
no subject
I'm very glad I don't need anything but a hairbrush to live my life.
no subject
Not even a razor! It's kinda crazy, really.
no subject
Well no, I do need a razor. I was thinking about head hair, not face hair. I do need to shave my beard. I don't really want the shipwrecked hermit look.
no subject
Again, on your behalf? You make it work. [But she considers this for a second.] Maybe play with some gel on your hair?
no subject
That's sweet of you to say, but I don't like when it gets unkempt. [A beat.] Why does my hair need gel?
no subject
It fits the blood on your shirts, though. [Not that he wears that all the time. But it's fun to tease him about it.] It doesn't. But it would be cool to see you with a different style.
