ATTF: Sexual Tension

[enigma731.livejournal.com]

Hello, dear bar!

It's Friday again and today we're going to talk about sex! (Yes, you heard me right. Don't look at me with that tone of voice.)


This week's ATTF theme is Unresolved Sexual Tension (UST) and how it may or may not become Resolved Sexual Tension (RST) for our favorite assassins. Hopefully with nobody innocent getting killed in the process. Do you have a head canon about how Clint and Natasha had sex for the first time? Was there instant chemistry/UST as soon as they met, or did it take a while for them to want one another? Were they already in a relationship the first time they had sex, or were they doin' it long before any emotions were disclosed? What are your favorite kinks for them?

To get this party started, let's play a classy little game of Bingo. Sexytiems!Bingo, to be exact.

Here's your card:




And here's how the game works
- Connect four adjacent squares (row, column, or diagonal) by filling the prompts in them
- Your fills can be recs, comment fics, descriptions of head canons, or some combination of the three
- You can play as many times as you want. Fill up the whole card if it makes you happy!

You are also totally welcome to just cheerlead or discuss, or to pick any prompts from the card in any order that you want to fill/play with. You just can't say you got a bingo if you do it that way. (Natasha will know if you do, and she will not be pleased.) This is supposed to be fun, so go wild!

And now for the business end of things --



Things to remember:

1. Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut. If it's a comment, label NSFW in the subject line of the comment. Although I'm going to guess a lot of this discussion will be NSFW.


2. Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings). With this topic please be especially mindful of using warnings or being explicitly clear that you've chosen not to warn. Remember that one person's kink could be another person's trigger.


3. For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.


4. Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Okay, I have a head cold and can barely (a) swallow and (b) think straight. I keep looking at this, trying to be original, and maybe after I'd had some sleep I might be able to come up with a mini-ficlet that fits one of the squares. But for now all I can think of to score a 'bingo' is to do what amounts to self-reccing. Now, when you do it once, in one of these ATTF things, people smile indulgently and move on. But four times?? That's beginning to look suspiciously like eye-roll-worthy self-promotion ...

I guess I won't play, then ...

But I'll try for that ficlet thingy. Later. Assuming I live through the next few hours.

Hey now, aren't you the one who told me that self recs are how you find the best fic? Now I wanna see yours. ;)

Also you don't actually have to fill the prompts. You're welcome to just talk about your personal head canons for UST/RST.

You find the best fic from OTHER people's recs, not your own though ... :-(

But okay, head canon. Which of course exists because I stuck it into my fics ... So I'll mention them at the end of each square.

Top Row.

(1) Twinges of UST at first meeting -- Man, she's gorgeous. And she seems kind of ... interested too. So Clint, of course, proceeds to ask himself is THAT why I let her live ...?? (Because obviously, it's what everybody will think!) (In the Service -- Three Times Hawkeye Questions His Orders, And One Time He Doesn't, Chapter 2

(2) UST mission fic! SHIELD's safe houses tend to suck, and then someone forgets to pay the heating bill. Or the landlord is corrupt and just pockets the money, since hardly anyone ever comes to stay anyway. Cue freezing winter storm plus absence of booze equals bed sharing (body heat!). Nothing happens, because ... Coulson gets there earlier than expected. Of course. (Warmth)

(3) RST author's choice: Post-New York leveling out. Realizing exactly what Loki did when he became "personal" as regards the two of them; claiming back what he sought to take away. (Going to Ground)

(4) RST Holy Shit We're Alive! There's an adrenaline spike at the end of a mission, particularly the ones that kind of sucked, that simply needs to be taken down the Old Fashioned Way. (Bandaids/Not A Victory March ).

BINGO!

Yay reading for when I get home from work!

Feel better! I, too, have a cold, but I don't think it's quite on the level of misery that yours is. It's just, you know, unpleasant.

*gives you a bowl of hot chicken soup* *and a chocolate chip cookie* *and some ST:V DVDs to watch while you wait to feel better*

Thanks ... The good news is I couldn't sleep (the "night time" sinus medication had the effect of a pot of espresso) so I got my latest fic posted at, like, 2 am.
