Fic: Initiation Into This Life  
Title: Initiation Into This Life (or: 5 times Clint told the truth and one time she didn't)
Fandom: Marvel movie!verse
Pairing/Characters: main: Clint Barton (female), Natasha Romanoff - secondary: Nick Fury, Phil Coulson
Rating: Teen and Up
Word Count: 5202
Prompt: Everyone else thinks Clint is a guy. Clint doesn’t really bother correcting them. for [community profile] queer_fest
Warnings: hints at Clint’s less-than-happy beginnings

Author's Note: I saw this prompt and wanted to write it. I started writing and found myself in a darkness, wondering that I'd ever considered it. I asked [livejournal.com profile] hufflepuffsneak what she thought of the story so far and she liked it. Without the quiet encouragement, I would never have finished this.

Summary: Clint Barton has the Black Widow in the cross-hairs of her bow but stays her impulse as she realizes that this woman has seen things, in this first meeting, that not even the people who know her best have ever realized. I was told you were one thing, yet I see you are completely another.

Part of this story was inspired by this art by Lettie

Is there some place I could leave feedback for the artist? I can understand why it inspired you. :)

I'm going to have to go clear back to when I found her art during that first promptathon because I think we had a better link than just her Tumblr journal. Her journal, if you want to go there before I find that link or get on a normal computer and not just my phone, is artbylettie.

She's pretty amazing! I have that artwork scrolling as my background and somewhere here there are icons.

Ah ha! I unearthed the original link!

Also, here (http://be-compromised.livejournal.com/60569.html?thread=893337#t893337) are the icons that [livejournal.com profile] inkvoices made of some of the art.
