Title: DEFINING POINTS
Author: Avenging Archer
Pairing/Characters: Clint/Natasha, the usual SHIELD and Marvel characters
Word Count: Novel length ongoing WIP. Estimate when complete 80K words
Rating: R
Warnings: Language, violence in keeping with spies/assassins, sexual situations. No gratuitous gore or porn, but this isn’t a children’s tale either.

Author’s Notes: Many thanks to Alpha Flyer for her brilliant beta help. Without her, this story would be far less readable. Her knowledge of the technicalities has been an invaluable resource!

Summary: She'd had no idea that such a coincidental meeting would change her life so dramatically. He'd spared her life, giving her a second chance to find purpose and a way to balance her ledger. Their friendship? She didn't over analyze it. It didn't need defining. It was hers. Hers and his. That was all that mattered…until he was compromised and she came face to face with Loki and found herself unwittingly compromised as well. Black Widow/Hawkeye. Movieverse with a touch of comic canon per author's prerogative.

That would have made her job far more difficult, invisibility being imperative for a successful assassination. ( Read More of Defining Points Chapter 1 )
