Here's some lovely artwork (http://workerbee73.tumblr.com/post/25736752197) to get us started....


SO SWEET. (plus, hand on leg.)

Oh I love that one. Lurve lurve lurve.

How about neck-smoochies art (http://sadirapookie.tumblr.com/post/23205794328/slightly-nsfw-tasha-and-clint-under-the-cut)? (Maybe NSFW...)

I think my favorite thing about the Avengers Assemble #5 cover is how... forceful and needy that kiss is. There's nothing tender about it, it's so RAW. unf

This is a lovely fic that has Natasha using kisses to remind Clint that she trusts him. It's absolutely gorgeous and I can't really do it justice. (There's also really hot sex ;D)

all the transparence (in the shades of red) (http://thoughts-to-ink.livejournal.com/491.html)

Oh great call! I love how the kisses/sex work in that fic too-- all about the reclaiming and taking back and just yeah. And hot too. :)

Wow, thanks! I was about to plug it myself because I'm a loser. It sounds a lot better coming from someone else! :) :)

Here's something a little bit more in the second category of kissin' (or almost-kissin'):

Budapest? (http://workerbee73.tumblr.com/post/26154877494/lettiebobettie-budapest)

Wow. (http://workerbee73.tumblr.com/post/25605242790/lettiebobettie-i-wanted-to-do-something-to)

I just saw that first one on tumblr.

And then my brain exploded.

OMG if I could draw I would literally never stop drawing Clint and Tasha sexin'.

Huge fan of that first one :D

I have such a weakness for those arm guards, and Clint keeping them on during sex is totally a new kink of mine after seeing this. Someone write fic for this! The world needs it!

Someone tell me NOT to make an Earth's Mightiest Heroes vid to Somebody That I Used To Know

(this is me not telling you)

doitdoitdoit

this is me totally encouraging you to make exactly such a video. yes.

Does it have to be Clint & Natasha or can it be their RL counterparts?

You know how Jeremy usually makes the first move when they encounter each other? Welllllllll at the Moscow premiere he arrived late and flustered (you can tell because he doesn't immediately plant one on her) and Scarlett rose to the occasion admirably.



It sort of counts because it could be C&N undercover, right? >.> Really.

They are so adorable. **sighs**

This is a Budapest fic, and it's awesome in its own right, but I really, really love the kissin' parts:

Actually, anything that involves kissin' and good dialogue is pretty much my own personal crack. An example:

“That was ...”

“Unforgettable?” he supplied. “Mind-blowing? The best sex you’ve ever had?”

“Impressive,” she finished with a smile in her voice.

“Hey, don’t sound so surprised,” he said. “I can do stuff.”

Seconding this one :D

Thirding. And that's absolutely my favorite quote from it. :D

I am the heart that you call home (http://bob5fic.livejournal.com/65330.html)
bob5fic writes Clint/Nat - Mr. & Mrs. Smith AU (R++)
What more do you need to know?

HAWT kissin' and glorious dialogue. To wit:


“God, when was the last time that you did that?”

“I’m not crying,” she said.

“No, I mean...” He sighed, his voice dropping to a whisper. “When was the last time that I made you laugh?”

Natasha felt her arm tense as she averted her gaze, Clint edging ever nearer.

“September 15th,” she said. “Eight months ago. You said Putin looked like an angry virgin.”

“I did say that.” He smiled, his head coming to rest against the barrel of her gun. “Angry virgins make for the worst dictators.”

She laughed again. Their eyes met. His mouth relaxed into a grim line.

“Pull the trigger, Nat.”

“I...” She let out a string of Russian curses before choosing to lose the gun instead, grabbing him by the back of his neck and crushing her lips to his.

OK a number of recent kissage from Tumblr...

Proof Thor is awesome:


They're pretty much... face kissing?


"The Avengers Bunch" where Clint is trying to kiss Nat:


How the "cognitive recalibration" scene should've looked, as they are right on the verge of kissing:


And I shall leave you with a number of Clint/Natasha kisses <3

**SQUEES LIKE A 10-YEAR-OLD WITH BIEBER TICKETS**


OMG i love these so much.

Well, if we may have a separate rec post for getting hot under the collar, I may save my rec for then, because it contains a grand zero kissing. So! Instead, I'll just link to the Clint/Tasha ficlets that have been posted on the kissing fest (for JUSTICE and for SQUEE, because ah, this fandom, so talented).

For the prompt we aren't even real:

by recessional: The world pauses for a second, and then Tasha says, " . . . did you just give me a patronizing kiss on the head?" and really sounds a lot more like Natalia Romanova and a lot less like a crazed remnant of a super-spy-assassin. Clint congratulates himself. [PG, contains some slightly gory imagery] I love this. I love this one so much - it's both sweet and messed up, like they are, and I go between seal-clapping with glee and going "OH, KIIIDS" and clutching my heart.

by liseuse: It isn’t often that Clint gets sent on the deep infiltration spy gigs these days. They seem to have more use for him on rooftops and watching from a distance. But, right now, he is in a tuxedo, dancing with Natasha in the American Embassy in Kiev. Mission!ficlet! And I can see this all happening, complete with the last of UST because they are on a mission, but it's awesome and slinky and they are being their competent selves.

by some_stars: After the Loki situation, SHIELD takes them both off active duty for a few weeks. Ostensibly it's until all the paperwork clears, but really, Natasha knows, it's because they're resources, and SHIELD is managing them. It doesn't feel like a kindness. This is quiet and bitter, and ends up being bittersweet with how they know each other, with how Natasha is trying to help and find a way for Clint to relax and heal. And ♥

For the prompt safe:

by liseuse: They've done this for years. It started as a quicker way of getting in and out of the bathroom and only having one set of blood to clean away, but now Clint stands, bracketed against the shower wall by Natasha, and lets her kiss him gently along the jawline. [some gory imagery] post-mission, and it slides from post-mission snark and complaining to reaffirming that they are in one piece. Kiiiiiiiiiids.

by recessional: Natalia waits. Then she reaches over and worms her hand into his free one, arm crossing over one of his and under the other. "Hey," she says. "It'll be fine. You're here. You're safe. It's over. This is just . . . ." she sighs. "The really fucking shitty aftermath." Post-canon, and AH, FEELINGS. Natasha's angry and fierce and worried as hell, and Clint's not coping well, and FEELINGS. This is the quiet fierceness of their canon-scene in the recovery room, as if Natasha could make him believe her that he'll be okay by sheer will.

for the prompt sometimes, she comes back from missions and she kisses like other people:

by ceridweyn_lin: "Was it Natalie, this time?" Clint pulls back, face tentative and eyes serious, but his hand (rough and callused and familiar, above anything else) is still cupping the back of her neck. Natasha exhales and leans forward, resting her forehead against his. She closes her eyes. Quiet and complicated, and Natasha still finding her Natasha feet after being Natalie Rushman for a while, and it's all how they remind themselves of who they really are. Also, I should admit that this was one my prompts, so I'm all :DDDD at the fill anyway, but I love it, too.

AWESOME. Love these.

Fanworks Recs Fridays are the best! :)
I was just thinking about how much I love mission!fic... the two of them out in the field, doing their spy thing and kicking ass together. Maybe that could be a theme for an upcoming Friday?

OH definitely! I think after we do dark!fic next week we should do mission!fic after that. Love me some mission fic.....

Has this awesome artwork (http://lettiebobettie.tumblr.com/post/23482333410/its-cpr-dont-let-him-die) been posted yet?
