Valentine's Day Mini Promptathon 2017

[sugar-fey.livejournal.com]

Yes, our promptathons roll around again, as (semi) reliably as birds migrating.

So, once again it's the time for the Most Romantic Mini Promptathon Of All.

Or platonic. Or full of badassary. Doesn't have to be romantic. Your choice. We welcome ALL!

Timeline
Now (Tuesday, February 7th - February 14th midnight eastern: Prompt! Prompt ALL THE THINGS!
February 14th to February 21st (midnight eastern): Fill those prompts like you've never filled prompts before!

Theme
Prompts: All things Valentine's Day or love (romantic or otherwise!) related. Friendship? UST? Developing romantic feelings? Badass mission that just so happens to involve obnoxious heart-shaped candies? Excessive consumption of pink cupcakes? Living down by that rivier in Egypt or AoU-compliant? Alternate universes featuring singing elephants dressed as cupids? Post-Civil War reconciliation? All are welcome here!

Prompting
Prompts go in the comments to this post. List each prompt as its own separate comment.

Fills
Fills: Post your fill, or a link to your fill - be it fic, art, a video of you preforming an interpretive dance, etc - as a reply to the prompt comment. Please don't post your fanwork separately to the comm, otherwise b_c might explode from the squee. We'll also create a masterlist post updated as fills come in, so rest assured that everyone will see your work!

Please include title, rating, and appropriate warnings in the subject line of your fill.

Prompts may have multiple fills, please give love to your fellow creators!

FILLS CLOSED. Thanks to everyone who participated and made this promptathon so great!

The Bowling Green Massacre.

[inkvoices]

If i'd been drinking anything right now I would have just choked. Just so you know ;)

[alphaflyer.livejournal.com]

Have a drink - and start writing ... ;-)

[inkvoices]

But would it be a fake incident? A real incident? A press incident? *points to icon* WAS IT THE PLUMS? Who knows?! So difficult to keep track of these things ;) Not sure I could do it justice; will mull over :p

To hear Clint talk about it, it was just a bar fight. The SHIELD records appear to suggest otherwise, but they're not complete... Someone has ripped several pages from the file and scrawled FAKE NEWS! all over the cover.

Please, both of you, pair up and write this. I WANT IT.
(I'm a demanding girl today. Sorry, not sorry!)

[inkvoices]

Natasha know what fake news is. Anyone who asks her about it is just gonna get a pile of history books and article prints outs appearing in their lockers and bunks and cars and if you didn't want educating why did you ask?

[inkvoices]

[alphaflyer.livejournal.com]

You are on, babe! I have a condition though, which I will impart by e-mail.... \o/

[inkvoices]

SECONDED. LOL

[sugar-fey.livejournal.com]

LOL OMG.

So... an event that never happened yet people claim it did for nefarious purposes?

[alphaflyer.livejournal.com]

Mmmmm.... yes ... ? Maybe? It's legendary in SHIELD, anyway. And rumour has it Barton was involved. But his lips are sealed...

FILL: The Bowling Green Massacre (T, no warnings)

[alphaflyer.livejournal.com]

Title: The Bowling Green Massacre
Authors: alphaflyer and inkvoices
Rating/Warnings: T (some swearing, movie-level violence)
Word Count: 6,600
Prompt: alphaflyer’s The Bowling Green Massacre (http://be-compromised.livejournal.com/531333.html?thread=10140805#t10140805) and franztastisch’s ”alternative facts” (http://be-compromised.livejournal.com/531333.html?thread=10156677#t10156677)
Summary: Fallaces sunt rerum species. The truth isn’t all things to all people all of the time.

Author Notes:
AlphaFlyer: My first ever true writing collaboration! There is nothing quite like staring at an open Google Doc, wondering what you should write next, and watching words appear before your very eyes. Good words. The best words! inkvoices: also my first writing collaboration! Good times, much fun :) And I got to write mission!fic with a master.
No real cows were harmed in the making of this fic, although we can't say the same of the Brooklyn mafia. The views on protesters, capitalism and politics enunciated herein are strictly those of the characters.
