Title: Wheel of Fortune (Chapter 1 and 2)
Author: shenshen77
A Gift For: crazy4orcas
Rating: PG
Warnings: None so far, will add as I progress.
Prompt used: Treasure Hunters AU
Summary: A pyramid in the middle of Croatia in 1943? You have got to be kidding. Add a mythical cannon wheel that will grant its owner success in all combat situations, Nazis, Soviets and a beautiful redhead hot on its heels - Not a good day for Clint "Hawkeye" Barton, adjunct professor of archaeology at Washington University in St. Louis.
Author Notes: My dear crazy4orcas asked for a Treasure Hunters AU and my mind immediately leapt to Indiana Jones. Add to that a rumor I heard about pyramids in what is now Bosnia and my imagination went on the run. Unfortunately it ran further than my time allowed, so only the first two chapters of the fic are done so far. But I'll add more asap, promise!
Many thanks to hufflepuffsneak for brainstorming and beta, frea_o for more brainstorming and the_nita for a final readthrough. All credits for the title go to restingface.

Title: Not With A Bang
Author: sugar_fey
A Gift For: franztastisch
Rating: Teen
Warnings: allusions to violence, post-apocalyptic setting, Kate/America side pairing.
Prompt used: 'Mad Max AU' and 'bleak post-apocalypse'
Summary:

Kate asked him once, for his memories of what came before. A child of the Dust, she longs for her generation’s fairy stories.

But all Clint has to offer her is noise; the fury of the blast that took his left ear, and the roar of the chaos that followed.

Clint meets Natasha at the end of the world.

Author Notes: The prompts included 'Mad Max AU' and 'bleak post-apocalypse, so it ended up being a Mad Max inspired post-apocalyptic AU with bonus Kate/America. :P

Title: these are the days
Author: inkvoices
A Gift For: krilymcc
Rating: PG13
Warnings: this part: may be triggering for money issues or social anxiety
Prompt used: For ‘modern day no powers’ and ‘college’ and ‘normal people’ and “Oh hey I guess we’re roommates!”
Summary: Natasha came to Dunelm University with a plan. This plan did not include a roommate with no respect for privacy, an Olympic archer and his pizza stealing dog, or taking part in any crazy student fundraising.
Otherwise entitled: how Natasha survives her first year at university and learns not to let her degree get in the way of her education.
Author Notes: Dear krilymcc, This is a UK AU, because ‘write what you know’, and universities in the UK don’t have mixed gender rooms (although they do have mixed gender halls of residence or colleges), so Hawkeye is not Natasha’s roommate. The other Hawkeye is ;) I hope this meets with your approval.
Also, I’m afraid this is just a part one because unfortunately I haven’t managed to finish this for you (yet). It’s a pinch-hit that was meant to short and has really gotten away from me. I’m sorry; I promise there will be more fic with a lot more Clint, as fast as I can write it!
HUGE thanks to franztastisch, Dunelm’s Professor of Beta Reading and President of the Cheerleading Society.
Disclaimer: The university in this fic has an uncanny resemblance to a certain university in the North East of England. (The quote don’t let your degree get in the way of your education comes from an ex-Chancellor.) No affiliation or offence is intended. That said, this is work of fiction, so also I made a lot of stuff up ;)
