Valentine's Day Mini Promptathon 2017  
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!

gravitational effects of the moon, G, no warnings
“I don’t know how you can work with him and not just drool over those arms,” remarks the younger agent. She’s been unfortunate enough to be paired with Natasha for sparring, and she’s currently trapped in a headlock because she’d stopped to watch Clint wrestle his own trainee to the mat. This was her excuse for being distracted, which Natasha thinks is frankly ridiculous.

“They’re just muscles,” she says, maintaining the hold on the agent’s neck. “Anyone who trains as much as he does would look similar; and anyway, letting yourself get distracted by things like that are what get you killed.” Not that she, you know, endorses the Red Room’s methods or anything, but at least she was trained from an early age not to let anything, especially a man, get between her and her objective. “Let’s go again,” she sighs, releasing the agent. “And don’t look at Barton.”

Half of SHIELD, it seems, has a crush on him, which Natasha chalks up to the fact that nobody else works as closely with him as she does. Is he physically fit? Sure, but so are scores of other agents, she reasons, and they don’t shoot glitter bomb arrows. [[continued on AO3!]]

Oh yay! Of course, I'm already considering how I can pick up where the ending leaves off...
