With my shopping cart I move through the heart

WHO: Bobbi Morse, Clint Barton & Open.
WHERE: A local supermarket.
WHEN: Monday afternoon.
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: Thanksgiving is nearly here and it's time to do some grocery shopping!
FORMAT: Quick. Start new threads, ram your carts into other people, have at it!

[Bobbi has composed a long list of food items that will be needed to prepare Thanksgiving dinner. It's not just turkey that she has in mind-- there's all the fixings and alcohol to obtain as well. Luckily she's brought Clint along to help her with her food quest, and more importantly, to carry everything back to the Mansion in one piece.

Unfortunately, it seems like lots of people had the same idea to get started on their shopping several days in advance. The aisles are crowded with shoppers and their baskets and carts, filled to overflowing with boxes of mashed potatoes and stuffing. This grocery store is teetering on the brink of running out of Thanksgiving supplies, and honestly Bobbi is having none of it.]

Damn. I didn't think it would be this crowded already.

But it's so cute. Just like our little man.

[She grins and grabs a can of Alpo.]

Sure, birdie. Whatever you say.

Just don't except me to call 'im that.

[She continues smirking and loads up on more dog food.]

Maybe we could get him something special for the holiday.

A ladybug costume?

_{( He thinks he's quite clever. )}

I was thinking more like a pilgrim hat. But a little ladybug costume would bring out his eyes...

Might give him some identity confusion, though.

We can change his name to Ladybug Pug.

It doesn't roll off the tongue quite the same way.

Perhaps it's for the best.

He's stuck with Bee-pug forever.

It sorta suits him though. [She picks up a squishy dog toy.]

I always thought it was a good name. Since, y'know, I thought of it.

And here I was thinking Jen was to blame.

It's mostly her fault. The costume was all Shulkie.

It suits him. Either that or I've just gotten used to it.

Probably the second one.

I s'pose it's better than Clinton Francis Barton, Jr.

What would be wrong with that?

It's a mouthful, for starters.

Oh, I completely agree, Doctor Agent Barbara Jo Morse.

I'm not lobbying to name our kid-- or pet that.

Yeah, but if you were, I'd be supportive.

Oh really? [She raises an eyebrow, stares at him a moment, then shrugs.] Good to know.
