CIRCUS AU, CIRCUS AU! *happy dance* Sorry you had me at circus :D I am also intrigued by Clint meeting Natasha when she's playing an undercover role, because that always complicates things, and I'm interested in how this AU timeline will make Clint different and the same, and, like the others above, the fake out at the end with Barney got me.
Hmm, prodding the muses: why has it 'changed hands a few times' since we ran out of Carsons? Disagreements with the shady people, behind the scenes issues, it doesn't actually make any money...? What actually goes on that's made these boss people leave? ...Or did they do a disappearing act?
Does Clint find out that Natasha is undercover because she eventually tells him, because it's revealed at the end and it's awkward between them because she didn't tell him, or Barney or someone else tells him because they know the Law is after them, or Clint figures it out himself, or Clint knows all along because he's made a deal with SHIELD or someone because he wants to get himself and his brother out of this mess and that's where the original heads up came from, or...?
What is it that they're smuggling? Does Clint know about it? Does he care? Is Barney neck deep in it or on the peripherary? Does Clint care because Barney's involved? Do any of the artists or workers know what's going on? Who, and why? And how does Natasha manage to track down who those people are and find anything out from them?
And circus-ness! I want to know what the act Natasha is in is like, and the other acts, and the behind the scenes stuff, and everything! This snippet has given me a gritty, seventies circus feel and it's great :D More please?
