Day 2 - A Ship You've Just Discovered



Darcy Lewis/Clint Barton

You'll need to know the Marvel movies to know these two. Darcy Lewis is Jane Foster's assistant in Thor while Clint Barton (who shows up in Thor) is Hawkeye in The Avengers.

Now, I adore Darcy. She's got a spunky attitude - she tasered Thor for goodness' sake! She also stays to help clear the small town, not leaving with the residents. Despite her lack of scientific expertise, she's the first to spot the aurora and the image of a person in the photograph of the event. When Jane decides to look for Thor (who has escaped from the hospital), Darcy doesn't argue; she just preps her taser.

Clint on the other hand has a nice sardonic edge working for him. I love the moment in Thor where he tells Coulson to give the word soon because he's "starting to root for this guy" after watching him beat up the guys on the ground. It certainly doesn't hurt that he's got the rugged look going for him. Plus, those arms? Yum.

I think the combination of her spunk and his sarcasm make for some nice fireworks. With her exposure to Thor and the other Asgardians and her link to Jane, it doesn't seem like she'll go back to the simple college life. She would be someone who could understand how to be a hero's girlfriend...she, Jane and Pepper could start a club. They have some nice potential for both high adventure and quiet downtime.
