Contrary to what many people seemed to think, Clint Barton was not an idiot. A person didn't get to the point that he did in SHIELD by being stupid. They didn't let stupid, uneducated people fly planes that cost nearly a billion dollars to build. That said, he'd grown up in Iowa, dealing with storms like this every year. He still dealt with storms like this back home now. Trudging through two feet of snow to make sure the chickens that his daughter loved didn't freeze, and to warm up frozen water pipes. It was life on a farm.
He wouldn't have even left the house this morning, except the 'little cold' Nate had been dealing with for the last two days had turned into a high fever, vomiting, and the kid not wanting anything but a bottle. And he hadn't asked for a bottle for almost two years now. Which meant Clint was bundling the toddler into a snowsuit, and into the truck for the drive to the clinic. It wasn't easy, and took three times as long, but Clint knew how to drive in this crap.
Which meant that an hour after leaving the house, Clint was carrying a blanket wrapped Nate into the clinic, and he looked rather glad to see Carson.
"Hey, I hope you're not too busy yet to deal with Mister Puked-in-Dad's-Truck."
