******************

NOTE: PROMPTING HAS NOW CLOSED, BUT FICS AND FANWORKS MAY STILL BE SUBMITTED THROUGH AUGUST 31ST. THANKS!

Welcome!!!! The time is now upon us. This will kick off a month's worth of prompting and fanworking and all the good things. Not sure what to do? Click below for our handy-dandy Promptathon Guide!

RULES ON POSTING SUBMISSIONS
(please read before you post! <3)

The Rules. Just follow these three easy steps!

1. Leave a Prompt.
Prompts can be anything--simple or elaborate, words or pictures, songs or poems, lyrics or phrases. Anything that, to you, inspires a C/N fanwork. Use your imagination. Go crazy. All I ask is that you keep it tasteful and warn for anything explicit or triggery. Also, try to be as specific as you can with your prompts--this is often very helpful to those creating the fanwork.

And leave as many prompts as you want. I’m serious. Keep coming back, y’all. We want all the prompts we can possibly get Also, be sure to leave each prompt as a separate comment.

2. Wait a week.
Tailgate and chitchat and keep leaving prompts. And mull over the epic fanworks you are creating.

3. Submit C/N fanwork like there is no tomorrow.
All submissions should either be posted here or linked to this post via a comment. The nitty gritty details of posting your stuff can be found HERE. Please read before you post

Timeframe:
Prompts will be accepted starting today, Friday, July 13th (!!!) and will remain open until Friday, August 10th. Submissions may be submitted beginning on Friday, July 20th and may continue to be submitted until August 10th.

What we hope to accomplish with all this promptathon-iness:

A chance to get in the game. Been wanting to jump into the C/N fanwork scene but not sure where to start? Now’s the time. There’s no length requirement on the works submitted, you can focus on drabbles and vidlets and short and sweet projects (or do longer more epic stuff if that strikes your fancy as well). It’s really entirely up to you. We’re just hoping to provide a fun, no-pressure environment.

Meet new and awesome people. Because srsly, I love everyone in this bar. It's a good damn bar. Don't be afraid to say hello
Ship like you’ve never shipped before.
Tailgate when appropriate. My motto is, if something ain’t a cocktail party, you just aren’t trying hard enough. In that spirit, aurora_0811and I are hosting the tailgate section (which I think at this point just includes random chatter and ridiculousness, cheerleading and tomfoolery, because I doubt our comm’s talkative nature will be suppressed even during the prompting/waiting period.) So pull up a helicarrier-shaped lawnchair, crack open a cold one and settle in for the festivities. And leave prompts.

And most of all, have fun. :)

Oooooooooh. You can absolutely change it to Will!

It's a prompt, not a request, so you can do whatever inspires you from it. :-)

I couldn't find an Olympic prompt like what I started to write so I'm going through and taking song prompts for the different chapters. You get Chapter 1!!!!

Fic Title: Eight Steps to You
Chapter Title: Assume the Correct Stance
Summary: Clint and Natasha at the Olympic Summer Games.

*grins* I love it! Of course she would think it's stupid! But she does it anyway... and he helps her! *hugs them* *hugs you*

Yep, I filled my own prompt. *grins*

Fic Title: Eight Steps To You
Chapter Title: Grip it Tight
Summary: Clint and Natasha at the Olympic Summer Games

Here at AO3 (http://archiveofourown.org/works/477188/chapters/828320)

Aww I love hugs. And sometimes you just need a little fluff in your life, ya know?

My little heart can not handle all the goodness that is this fic. Together again and then the knowing what is coming and then the morse code that helps put him back together and just the everything!

And then I read part two because it's late and I didn't see the 1/2 and the 2/2 and now my heart, she is beating much too fast from the love she has for this second part and the way he takes care of her.

would you mind if this was part of a multi-part, multi-fill story? I thought of a story arc that could fill several smutty prompts, culminating in this one.

Oh wow. Yes pls. Natalie + Will. I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE. :D

I love the old-school vibe too. This whole series has turned into a kind of noir epic and I dig the hell out of that (and I love noir like whoa.) And it just fits this Cronenburg-ish world somehow.

And gawd, she so reads his mail right here. She knows exactly what he is (and in my mind, she knows she's in serious trouble-- he is after all, her kryptonite), but she won't give up the high ground. And he last line kills me too. And I love how it's true in some ways and very not true in others as this series goes on, and how in many cases it's even more true about him.

OMG thank you!! I really love writing her. I just... yeah. She's so complex and cool as hell but there's so much going on underneath the surface. SO MUCH.

And so many thanks on the dialogue stuff. It's by far my favorite thing to write and it just makes me squee so hard when other people like it--especially with these two who use less words than most. It needs to pack more of a punch.

*twirls you**

ALSO? 3300th comment. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THANK YOU! And sorry for the late response! I'm catching up on comments today. I'm so glad you liked and hope you enjoy the rest of the 'verse! :D

**blushes**

Thank you. I like to think that deep down Clint is a bit of a poet. Silly knight-errant-cowboy that he is. ;)

LOL.

And thank you. :)

Thank you for the lovely words, my friend. :)

You know, the one thing we still need to do is figure out how to organize this story when we put together the whole thing. We might end up playing around with the chronology, I'm not sure. I like the concept of short stories vs. novel here. I think it fits in well with this 'verse b/c you don't really want to see too much at any given time; I don't like revealing too many of their secrets. ;)

This was simulatneously creepy, touching and, dare I say it, sweet.

That? That right there? Srsly everything I was going for in this section. EVERYTHING. I wanted the fairytale aspect, I wanted his concern to be apparent, but I also wanted it to be somehow unsettling too. This fic shouldn't give you warm fuzzies; if it does, then I haven't done my job.

**bounces up and down**

Thank you!!!! I love torturing Clint and giving him basketfulls of angst. Like srsly.

Clearly, I have issues. :o

Thank you!!! Eeeep! :D :D :D

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!!!

I'm glad the tension came across so well; and yes, I have a major kink for seeing all worked up, protective, angsty!Clint-- most especially when the danger is from Natasha herself. Issues. I have them.

Thank you for the lovely comment!! :D

Wait-- which headcanon? :o

From the profanity, I am sensing that you approve of this snippet.... ;P

YOUR FEELS ARE GIVING ME FEELS. I AM DROWNING IN A SEA OF FEELS.

I am okay with this.

Awww, these kind of freakouts make me smile so hard. I adore all the levels of angst going on here. They are both so incredibly tortured and I cannot get enough.

Issues. I have them.

So glad you liked. :)

... you definitely are. Hell, we're inventing entire genres based on rope and throat!grabbing and wrist-kissing and knight-errant-cowboys.

You got company my friend. Fo sho.

Dude, the Morse code stuff just kills me, first as an SOS and then later as a comfort. And I've been dying to allude to Clint's deafness in a fic for ages now. It brings so much to the table storywise.

You've also pointed out my other favorite line in this section. It basically tells you everything you need to know about Natasha.

**ALL THE TWIRLS**
