ANNIBIRTHDAY REC-A-THON
This weekend is our community’s annibirthday (6 years since we started out on LJ) and it’s the tenth birthday of the MCU (Iron Man was released in May 2008)! To celebrate we’re having a good old fashioned nostalgic REC-A-THON.
How It Works: You can pick and choose from the handy meme format below, or use all of it, or just get commenting with recs of ALL THINGS MARVEL. Rec your favourite Clint/Natasha and Clint & Natasha works, branch out and rec things that focus on other characters, pairings, and teams in the MCU, or go really wild and even rec things from the comics. It's party time and everyone's invited!
This is a spoiler free zone so NO INFINITY WAR recs, mentions, or anything. We are here for the last ten years of Marvel and a mountain of nostalgia :)
Copy and paste for suggestions on getting started:
Things to remember:
1) Nothing Infinity War. At all.
2) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
3) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
4) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
5) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Gateway Drug - rec one of the first Marvel fanfics you can remember reading:
Bouncing Baby Sniper by vain_glorious.
Clint Barton is Peggy Carter's grandson
Golden Oldie - rec something from phase one/two/three:
Phase one:
we were emergencies by gyzym
It's not about being unmade; it's about remaking, one aching step at a time.
OBVIOUSLY
The Skies Over Manhattan by AlphaFlyer
Two master assassins, a demi-god, a super soldier, a man with breathtaking anger management issues and a billionaire in a flying suit. They're supposed to be on the same team.
warp and weft by legete
The muscle apparently talked a little much for Loki's liking. Now Natasha has to pick out the stitches.
Phase Two:
Next New Message by fabrega
"YOU HAVE THIRTY. SEVEN. NEW MESSAGES," Clint Barton's phone announces. That can't be good.
Phase Three:
Repair Work by igrockspock
Clint says, “I'm retired. One hundred percent. Done with Avenging.” Laura says, “Will that be for five minutes, or for five days?”
AU-ish:
White Blank Page by allisnow
Debt is beautiful only after it has been repaid.
Indebted by sablier_bloque
Clint Barton is sent to kill a young girl named Natalia Romanova. He makes a different call.
I would also rec shellybelle's Mr and Mrs Barton here, but everyone and their dog has already done that so find the links above. :P
Master Assassins - go on, rec some Clint/Nat or Clint & Nat:
The Observable Universe by Sarea Okelani
As an astrophysicist, Jane studies the observable universe for work, but in her free time what she likes to study is a bit closer to home. (Or: Jane has a low tolerance for stupidity. Clint and Natasha take exception to being called stupid.)
Two for the Show by mousie tongue
After her uncle is taken, young Natasha Romanov ends up in state's custody at a group home. She can tough it out alone... but somehow fellow resident Clint Barton becomes the reason she doesn't have to. A high school AU.
YOU KNEW I'D REC THIS DIDN'T YOU
no light in this valley by trysts
30 miles to water, 20 miles to wood, 10 miles to hell and I gone there for good
AND THIS ONE <3
Soiree by ruby_caspar

Thank you be_compromised for bringing me this fic.
Yesterday, Upon the Stair by samalander
When she was little Natasha had an imaginary friend.
treat 'em and street 'em by mmtion
Medical!AU: In which there aren't enough days of the week to try and explain the group of friends who call themselves the Avengers. But an attempt can be made by saying this: it all started with a baseball game.
The Woman in the Crosshairs by Frea_O
In which Clint has a new hobby and Natasha isn't curious, until she is. Black Widow and Hawkeye, their partnership—and what it means—throughout the years.
and at night be warm by gsparkle
Clint falls in love with Natasha over the radio.
HAVE I YELLED ABOUT THIS FIC TO YOU RECENTLY?

Life of Crime by neveralarch
As a
supervillainsupercriminalcontract worker with a morality deficit, Clint Barton leads a glamorous life. You know, stolen cars, dangerous women, a really confusing relationship with a meddling do-gooder, the works. It's pretty awesome. Except for, uh, medical bills, the mob, and being on the run all the time. That part isn't all that awesome.Clint/Nat, Clint/Nat/Bucky, Clint/Bucky, Clint/Carol Danvers, Kate/America. BEST <3
All night All Right MoreThanSlightly
Despite being young and rich and hot and awesome, Olympic gold medalist archer Kate Bishop finds herself in a bar acting like the world’s saddest, dullest cliché: Area Twentysomething Drinks Alone Because Her Ex Is Getting Married Next Weekend. But then, from across the room, she catches the eye of a girl with a wicked smile and an even better right hook. Things start to look up after that.
Kate/America, background Clint/Nat
Breadth Requirements by SkyisGrey

Clint/Bucky. Looooooove.
Summer Don't Own Me No More by Nonymous

"You look like him. So did Pierce." His voice is soft, gravelly from disuse. "Is that why they picked you?"

Steve/Peggy/Bucky

Self-rec - something that you’ve written/created:
the shorter story
'be careful what you wish for' is written in matter-of-fact writing on the little sign by the entrance. he only wishes to be dry, and idly he wonders if there is any way even that can go wrong.
Not to blow my own trumpet or anything, but Christ, this is good. I cannot believe I wrote this.
My threesomefic
The relationship adventures of Natasha Romanov, Clint Barton and James "Bucky" Barnes.
I will always be proud of this verse.
