[Kate doesn't think Billy would ever turn into a supervillain. But she might approve of him powerfully whacking Doctor Doom once or twice. Not whacking in the sense of killing him, but pounding him into the ground like a mole in that stupid game.
It'd be nice. Even if he brought back Cassie, it was only with certain considerations.]
I know you do. [She knows how much she misses Clint doesn't seem to match.]
And, um, sorry for how I kind of went about ... suggesting all that before. [Even if she was right.
No, but I wasn't really talking from a place of ... moral high ground or anything. My last boyfriend was the Dorian Gray. [And Billy's been personally attacked by Noh, so her running tally of "guys she chooses to date" isn't exactly giving her a leg up here. No, Billy has Teddy, and Teddy's great.
Teddy trumps like everyone.]
But I really shouldn't have made you feel like you needed to be stubborn. We're best friends.
Yeah, totally valid. [What would Kate Bishop be without a bow and a quiver full of arrows?
Well, she'd find another way to be a pest, but she'd be very grumpy about the whole ordeal.]
I almost broke my arm in LA, but it didn't take. I got lucky. I really was overdue. [LA with a broken arm would be way worse than here with a broken arm.]
[And then it's America who she calls, as she didn't want to worry anyone else. Kate felt like America was the one who would least respond with ... excessive worry over everything she got into.
Being leader means that I don't make you guys worry about me. [Okay, Kate knows this logic is stupid. She knows it, but she's saying it anyway so he knows where she came up with that idea in the first place.]

It probably would have prevented this.]
no subject
You saw it before I did. Me being stubborn about it wasn't really helping the situation any.
[She was worried, and she was being protective, and Billy can understand those feelings.]
At least I figured it out before it turned really weird.

no subject
Yeah. We are.
Urgh, do you want to go to New York? We should go to New York. You and me. Maybe Loki. And America. To a diner or something.
no subject
Maybe we should do a big New York thing once I'm better.
[Since, while she's mostly got a broken arm, she can't even drink.
She is a Sad Kate Bishop.]

[It's just a suggestion, very neutral.]

[That would probably destroy ... her life.]
no subject
No, that's valid.
[He knows he's not going to offer to heal it. He's terrible at that sort of thing.]
I bet Clint breaks a bone once a week, so this is probably overdue.

[He frowns a bit.]
You don't call me, to help, when you go to Los Angeles, do you?
[Maybe this is something unfair to ask. It's not that Billy is upset. But...he worries.]

She'd been right.]

I'm not the only one who can be stubborn.

[Besides, look what happened when Eli crumbled under the pressure.]
