ATTF: Rec Party!  
Hello all and welcome to this week's all the things friday's EPIC REC PARTY!

Read a good fanfic lately that you'd like to share or some old favourites? Looking for specific fics or just a general genre you're in the mood for? Watched a great fanvid, seen some gorgeous art, laughed at something on tumblr, found a great gif? Podfics, playlists, icons, all the things? Looking for any of those? SEARCHES AND SHARING OF ALL THE THINGS WELCOME.

Feel free to rec and request things from the wider Marvel universe as well as things featuring Clint and/or Natasha. And if you end up chatting with people about things non-Marvel *gasp* feel free to rec each other books and films and tv shows and other things as well. To keep things easy to spot just please put something in your comment's subject line to indicate the content.

And: this comm is no longer a spoiler-free zone for Civil War so Civil War recs and searches are also welcome.

Bring on the party!






Reminder: you can sign up to host ATTF or suggest ATTF ideas HERE. We're looking for hosts and ideas for June and July :)

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
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.)

Fic Rec
So it's not Clint/Nat, but Bucky & Tony healing, post Civil War, and it's heartbreakingly fabulous (IMHO). Still a WIP but the author has been updating very regularly.

i need a forest fire (http://archiveofourown.org/works/6848857)

(Also, I wouldn't have thought of this, except an update just ran across my email this afternoon and I wanted to share.)
((Also, also? I cannot stop giggling at Clint partying like a hawkstar. Kudos to the gif maker!))

RE: Fic Rec
(I don't know how you credit gif makers, is there gif using etiquette? Mostly people just seem to download and use them that I'm aware of? Usually I just use them on twitter.)

RE: Fic Rec
I don't think there is a crediting norm. But now I think this gif may have to be a Friday regular on twitter. heee

After skimming my bookmarks over on AO3, I can across this little gem.

The Promises, Our Yesteryears (http://archiveofourown.org/works/6170239) by geckoholic (http://archiveofourown.org/users/geckoholic/pseuds/geckoholic).

Its Bobbi/Clint and Bobbi & Natasha. I found it sadly sweet and very very good.

Awww, thank you so much!! /blushes furiously

Liked that one, good rec :)

The Velveteen Spider (http://archiveofourown.org/works/3986866), by [livejournal.com profile] miss_porcupine (Domenika Marzione). My bookmark says, "Gorgeous character study of both Natasha and Clint, and full of all kinds of smart connective tissue that AoU failed to provide."
Go read it!!! :-)

We Were Emergencies by gyzym

I definitely stand by this as one of the most amazing Clint/Natasha stories. Set right after Avengers.

inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 12th, 2016 04:52 pm (UTC)
Classic :D

So I'm gonna go with "last Marvel fic with Clint and/or Nat I bookmarked" here, and that is this gem:

It Was Only a Change of Plan

Gen. Natasha and T'Challa. Natasha has a meeting, and reflects on her choices. Missing scene near the end of CA:CW.
[identity profile] alphaflyer.livejournal.com on June 11th, 2016 05:06 pm (UTC)
Thanks for that! Pretty awesome story!
[identity profile] kiss-me-cassie.livejournal.com on June 11th, 2016 09:48 pm (UTC)
Oh! Thanks for that! I'm now going to check out her other fic.
[identity profile] spyforaday.livejournal.com on June 12th, 2016 01:33 am (UTC)
Excellent rec. Thanks for sharing.
inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 12th, 2016 05:09 pm (UTC)
Post-Civil War with Natasha, YAY, thank you for this :)
[identity profile] jackwabbit.livejournal.com on June 12th, 2016 12:21 pm (UTC)
I liked this fic. It's Blackhawk. But I "met" the author via her Ironman stuff, and though I haven't read it, I bet her Cap ain't bad, either. ;)

inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 12th, 2016 04:55 pm (UTC)
I don't tend to venture on to ff.net anymore, so thanks for this :)
[identity profile] kiss-me-cassie.livejournal.com on June 12th, 2016 07:28 pm (UTC)
Ditto. I never look over there, so thanks for pointing this out.
[identity profile] jackwabbit.livejournal.com on June 14th, 2016 03:10 pm (UTC)
I'm sure he's on AO3, too, but I haven't looked. I randomly was reminded of this fic the other day so I ventured over. I also don't spend a ton of time on ff.net anymore.
[identity profile] kiss-me-cassie.livejournal.com on June 15th, 2016 02:21 pm (UTC)
He is (although I don't know where!) because I totally remember reading this fic before, and I never venture onto FF.net, so it had to be at Ao3.

(It was lovely to re-read it. :))
[identity profile] jackwabbit.livejournal.com on June 16th, 2016 08:14 am (UTC)
He was here on LJ for years, too. That's I know he's a he. ;)

We met through an Iron Man fic, and used to talk a lot until LJ...well, you know...and we lost touch. :(

Civil War and general Marvel recs
Some post-Civil War recs:

Repair Work by [livejournal.com profile] igrockspock - Clint says, “I'm retired. One hundred percent. Done with Avenging.”
Smiles and feels, feels and smiles

United We Stand by [livejournal.com profile] franztastisch - To be honest, Sharon has been expecting this
Excellent Sharon fic in which Sharon is kickass competant at her job

The Futurist by [livejournal.com profile] alphaflyer - Tony, rattling around.
Tony post-Civil War thinking things over and maybe how things can be fixed...

Something That Starts With by fabrega - "Come on," Scott says, "We've gotta keep ourselves entertained."
Meanwhile in prison... Amusing.

Random Marvel recs from my computer bookmarks:

Mistake on the Part of Nature by idiopathicsmile - "Oh," he says. "Bucky found out about bananas."
The classic banana fic, featuring Bucky, Steve, and Sam

When they finally come to destroy the earth (they'll have to go through you first) and it's sequel by AlchemyAlice - In which Tony Stark went to boarding school with Bruce Wayne, and the road to becoming a superhero is not smooth.
Billionaire boys and their odd friendship, and then gaining teams and wow that's weird too.

Five Secrets Maria Hill Would Like To Pretend She's Keeping From The Rest of SHIELD by psocoptera - as it says on the tin
Good Maria backstory

breadcrumbs by irnan - one of the good post-Avengers Betty Ross fics
I do love a good Betty Ross fic and this is a fun one

RE: Civil War and general Marvel recs
Have you read Rocks Fall; Everyone Dies (http://archiveofourown.org/works/6888127)by paperclipbitch? It's post CACW Tony/Pepper and it hurts.
inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 13th, 2016 09:59 pm (UTC)
RE: Civil War and general Marvel recs
I have that one bookmarked - because Pepper and paperclipbitch - but I haven't read it yet because I guessed there'd be some ouch. Will bump that up the reading list; thanks for the rec!

Fic Search: Marvel; humour
Anyone have any favourite Marvel fics - doesn't matter the characters - that're amusing, or full of banter and sass, or make you smile a lot? Rec me :)

RE: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
You've probably read Boys Wanna Be Her, right? Clint/Nat body swap, funny, and the stellar porn is the cherry on top.
inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 12th, 2016 07:06 pm (UTC)
Re: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
Ooo, yes, I remember this one - good choice, thanks for the reminder of its lovely existence. I am absolutely okay with rereads!
[identity profile] alphaflyer.livejournal.com on June 13th, 2016 01:56 am (UTC)
RE: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
Three classics from my bookmarks:

There's Flying Monkeys (http://archiveofourown.org/works/449517) by Thimblerig (Clint, being debriefed after the Loki incident, on his too-handy plan to bring down the helicarrier: "Is this some kind of hobby for you? Planning our imminent destruction?")

Permit A38 (http://archiveofourown.org/works/741467) by Old_chatterhand -- SHIELD and bureaucracy

And Lithiumdoll's eternal "Culture and Other Balls of Twine (http://archiveofourown.org/works/442795)" (a post-New York road trip).
inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 13th, 2016 09:51 pm (UTC)
RE: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
I reread these on the way home tonight - sorely needed after today (what with so much awful around the world). Rereading is like a lovely comfy blanket hug :) Thanking you!
[identity profile] perpetuations.livejournal.com on June 13th, 2016 08:09 am (UTC)
RE: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
Okay, this fic is the best. I can't even think about it without laughing.
Selfies from the Underground (http://archiveofourown.org/works/1430413) by eleveninches

XMEN! (I've probably recced this before. It's teenage drama, how can it not be hilarious xD)
If you liked the book, you'll hate the movie (http://archiveofourown.org/works/342562?view_full_work=true) by paperclipbitch

More hilarious highschool AU's (this time SteveBucky)
Middletown: A Study of Suburban Life (http://archiveofourown.org/works/1926372/chapters/4158567)by M_Leigh
inkvoices: avengers:assassins hug[personal profile] inkvoices on June 13th, 2016 10:09 pm (UTC)
RE: Fic Search: Marvel; humour
I hadn't read the first one - just did now and had a giggle :D

Have read and love the second - oh my gosh, YES, the x kids and x school crazy times are some of my favourite things in the X Men fandom - comics, films, fanfic, don't care, gimme! Oldies but goodies - ever read The Early Years series by L. Burke? Original x kids crazy and good fun, bit over the top at times but in fine x men fashion. Also have a pretty.

Have also read, but not for aaaaages. Bookmarked for a reread!

Thank you for recs <3

Avengers & Politics
Your Mission, Should You Choose to Accept It by Dira Sudis (dsudis) - "Am I even old enough?" / "You were born in 1918, and the Constitution doesn't say a word about how much of your life you have to have spent awake. Believe me, we've got this."
I got this one from [livejournal.com profile] franztastisch. A Steve fic. Actually a crossover with West Wing but I enjoyed it without having watched that show, as in a lot.

Leader Of The Free World by copperbadge - Clint Barton's presidential campaign started as a joke. It didn't end that way, except for Steve.
Clint Barton, ladies and gentlemen. Is not stupid. Just not the kind of smart people expect.

Dear Vladimir by [livejournal.com profile] alphaflyer - JARVIS meddles in Russian politics. He really shouldn't.
JARVIS, Natasha, Clint, and Tony will deny all knowledge.

Anyone got anymore like these?
