[ Clint often forgets that he's human. When you're surrounded by people that can do extraordinary things you often forget that you can't take bullets. You can't fall off buildings. You can't beat a mind controlling sicko with your bow and arrow. Clint forgets these things. He puts himself on the line over and over. Taking chances with his very mortal existence. Something that sometimes Natasha takes issue with, but she's never afraid to follow him down the rabbit hole to Hell.
Right now Jessica still means everything to him. That was erased. What was written inside of him though was that he had to stop her. He had to put an end to her. Kilgrave said that. Kill Jessica. Which is exactly why he's got his bow drawn and his grip tight. Because logically he knows he would never kill her, but he's been told to. He's obeying the command. ]
You coulda stayed away.
[ Which is like asking a fish to stay outta the water. Not possible. Clint promised himself he'd never wind up out of control again. Promised he'd never be in that position again after Loki. He should have been prepared. Should have been ready. ]
