Hello thar, shippers!  Welcome to another round of Fic ANY FANWORK Rec Friday! 

Today is all about origin stories for both Clint and Natasha, or any story that heavily features their pre-SHIELD pasts.  (I kind of seperate this in my mind from first-meeting stories, as those are largely C/N centric, and I also suspect that they are going to become a massive subcategory of fic and probably need their own separate post, so I'm thinking we save that for later.) 

So come on down!  Join the party and bring your recs!  I'm going to leave mine in the comments this time.

A note about tagging, ratings and warnings:
We've added a bunch of tags since last week, and your friendly neighborhood mods are still working on the best way to go about this (because I think we should probably switch the "rec" part to just "fanwork" or "work" in general so people can tag stuff when it gets posted and not just when it's recc'd).  Should have an update soon on that soon.

In the meantime.... when you do rec or post fic, make sure to include a rating and also to identify any sensitive/trigger issues upfront.  Everyone's been really great about this so far, so let's keep up the good work!  /cheerleading

Also?  Happy Friday. :)
