Author's Notes: PLEASE READ/HEED THE WARNINGS. I mean it.

Once again, thanks go to anuna_81 for letting me play in this world and helping me craft this - I am having ALL the fun! Thanks also to kadollan for additional beta duties and putting my sentences in order when they needed it.

Also, thanks/blame to sunny_serenity for introducing me to Snow Patrol's "New York" in her Off the Grid Mix, which is quite possibly the only reason this chapter made it off the drawing board.

It's in the same universe as Unwrapped /Unwrapping, though this takes place before those stories.

The Red Thread
Part 1: The Red Thread (Natasha)
Part 2: I Loved You Before I Knew You (Clint)
Part 3: If the Curve of You Was Curved on Me (Clint)

Part 4: Certain Dark Things (Natasha)

Title: In the Service:  Three Times Hawkeye Questions His Orders (And One Time He Doesn't)
Author name: alphaflyer
Characters/Pairing: Clint/Natasha (albeit Clint-centric); Nick Fury; Phil Coulson; Maria Hill
Fandom/Universe: Avengers Movieverse
Rating: T (M if you're squicked by a bit of violence)
Word count: app 25,000 when it's done
Warnings: language, some violence; major cynicism alert.  (as in, if you think that all politicians are selfless public servants and all around wonderful people, don't read this)
 
Summary: 
Based on the intriguing line Loki utters during the interrogation scene:  “You lie and you kill in the service of liars and killers.  You pretend to be separate, to have your own code, something that makes up for the horrors.  But they are a part of you, and they will never go away …”  Character piece that follows Clint through three missions (plus one) and explores what makes him tick in his profession.
 
I've posted about this before, but have no idea how to add chapters, so bear with me!  Maybe by the time I post Chapter 4 I'll figure it our, but I'm frankly not optimistic.  I think the sad truth is that I'm too old for this internet shit.  So here are the URLs for the new chapter:

the red thread (natasha)
i loved you before I knew you (clint)

Part three: if the curve of you was curved on me (clint)

Natasha's POV from this part, the fourth part written by cybermathwitch is here: Certain dark things




Many many thanks to cybermathwitch for listening to my random and crazy ideas and discussing them with me, for understanding, kindness, encouragement, and generosity, for sharing headcanons, for beta reading this part and for cowriting with me <33333!!!!! ALSO, BABY, YOU SAVED THIS CHAPTER.

Also, dear workerbee73 and bob5fic, you two are an inspiration, in more ways than one. :) <3333! I want you both to know that. * squishes *

we're still playing with all the symbols you've seen in first two parts, this bit is a step further, because there's a reason why clint was drawn to natasha in the first place (and there's a reason why they work together and balance each other out so well), and I explored that in here. Mind the warnings, things got a little rough here, but it was necessary. I hope you'll enjoy it.

"Black Widow and Hawkeye have a sex scene in the upcoming “New Avengers” book in 2013, that’s likely to catch the eye of fanboys and fangirls. One girl in the audience screamed and threw her water bottle in the air upon hearing the news. Axel Alonzo said he had to cut the sex scene down a lot in order to bring it from R rating to a PG-13."

Okay, fess up. Someone here was that girl :P BUT YES. SQUEE.

fandomaid has put together a fundraising campaign for Superstorm Sandy. I don't know if you're aware of this community but they've helped raise money for many natural disasters around the world. Fans from hundreds of fandoms get together and create something they love for someone else who buys/bids on the creation and all the money goes to specific charities.

It's been years since I've offered up anything but I thought I'd give it a chance this time. Even if you don't want to create something, it would be well worth your time to check out the lists to see if there is something you might like to buy/bid on. I know I still enjoy wearing the Ravenclaw scarf someone knit me a few years ago!

Even if you'd rather not be part of this, they have a great list of charities here.

Has anyone else signed up for this? Can I include your link here?

It's not the actual name of the fic, but the second part to something I posted earlier during that whole kissing madness.
Here's the original post. On to the ficcage.

Title: --untitled at present-- PT 2 (I know, creatively titled)
Rating: R for language
Word Count: ~4500! I really let this one get away from me. The longest story I've ever written wasn't even half this.
Disclaimer: I don't think I've bothered with these lately, but yeah, not mine, whatever.
Summary: Him, her, and a karaoke bar frequented by local university kids. This is what happened after.
Author's note: Part 1 was posted a couple months back. I split off what I thought was the most promising part of the story, and tried to abandon the rest. But it wouldn't let me. Really, I tried multiple times.
Thanks toshenshen77for being encouraging, and a supportive and all-around awesome beta (and German customs teacher). This story would not have been completed if not for her.

(It's long, I'm warning you...)

Hello, everyone!

I think it didn't even take a second after seeing their interaction in theaters for the first time before I started shipping Clint and Natasha.  They've become my new obsession, which I find absolutely nothing wrong with!

I do need a little help.  I'm writing a post-Avengers fic, and for some reason, I cannot determine exactly what color Jeremy Renner's eyes are.  Can anyone help?  Thanks in advance!

I'm finishing a video as well, and when it's complete, I'm hoping to post it here!
