( you, my brightest star across the sky )

Happy new year, everyone! I hope you've all had a great start to 2014.

Because I'm betting I'm not the only one still picking up the pieces of my brain after the holidays, this week's ATTF is really simple. Our theme is new year's resolutions and/or wishes for the new year (if resolutions aren't your thing).

So:

1. What are your resolutions or hopes/wishes for 2014?

and

2. Do you have a head canon about our favorite master assassins and new year's? Do they celebrate it? Does Clint make the same resolution to take a nap every year? Please share/flail/write comment fic/have a general awesome time.

And as a final aside, check out this gorgeous promo Phil Noto posted on tumblr. Black Widow #1 comes out next week, and so far I think that's one of the most exciting things about 2014!



Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Thought you all should know about this. I hope to see many of you guys there. I have gotten the okay from the community staff to post this.  Come one, come all, join in on the fun!

and beautiful, and dancing away

warning: abuse (in one portion)

summary: They say you make lifelong friends in college, but they never mention you can meet them fifty feet above ground, breaking all the rules. [College AU]

author's note: I posted the first (and, until now, only) drabble in a Clint/Natasha college!AU a year and a half ago. The remaining pieces of the story have been sitting on my hard-drive since then, waiting for me to fill in the missing moments/months. Clearly, that hasn't happened in the last year and a half... So, in the spirit of the new year, I present what I have of the rest of the story. Enjoy. :)
