FIC: The Skies Over Manhattan (Chapter 4/4)  
Title: The Skies Over Manhattan -- Chapter 4:  "Battleship"
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None, really.  Some swearing, but not a lot for me (or "my" Clint)
Pairing: Clint/Natasha
Word Count: 10,000 (yeah, I couldn't find a good place to split it)
Disclaimer: Doreen from the cafeteria is the creation of [livejournal.com profile] allisnow.  All hail Doreen!  When it comes to the MCU, All I own is an Avengers BlueRay, a couple of posters and a Hawkeye action figure. Oh, and two comics.
Summary: Two master assassins, a demi-god, a super soldier, a man with breathtaking anger management issues and a billionaire in a flying suit. They're supposed to be on the same team.  A series of post-New York vignettes.
Author's Notes The end of a longish road; experimentation with different POVs while keeping Clint and Natasha firmly engaged, if not in the crosshairs.  Thanks to my dear friends Runawaymetaphor and shenshen77 for invaluable advice and encouragement; all remaining flaws are mine.

This is way too long to stick into an LJ post (although see link) http://alphaflyer.livejournal.com/7458.html, so you find it here:

Dropping a line to say I love how you write. I love how well thought out and real your characters are and how relistic their actions and thoughts are. I look forward to whatever you write next. :)

Thank you!! That really means a lot. :-)

I think my next Avengers effort will probably be me trying to whip the thing I posted on "unfinished fic Wednesday" a couple of weeks ago into shape. But before then, I owe my Voyager readers a chapter ...
