Love Is For Children - February 19th, 2013

19 February 2013 @ 04:41 am

Title: The Carnival
Author: ladygris
Rating: G
Genre: Friendship
Type: One-shot
Warnings: No warnings needed for this one at all.
Spoilers: No spoilers, pre-movie.

Why rec'd: Not many fics succeed in being fluffy and sweet, while also keeping Clint and Natasha in character, but this one does it beautifully. It takes place early in their partnership, when they're still getting to know one another. It can be viewed as either friendship or pre-ship.
