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

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, [livejournal.com profile] 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. :)

Fill: Fic. The (Other) American Game
A/N. So I’m just filling unfilled prompts with unbeta’d short fills (I figure people who posted prompts would rather a semi-decent fill than no fill at all). Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about baseball.
---

Steve ducked Natasha’s spinning kick and charged towards her. She flipped to the left and used his momentum to bring him to the ground. She danced away from his attempt to bring her down with him, allowing him enough time to roll away into a crouch. He stood his ground, letting Natasha take the offensive.

“You should watch a game of baseball with Clint and I,” Steve told Natasha, panting from exertion.

“Baseball?” Natasha asked skeptically, unleashing a quick flurry of punches.

“I have tickets to the third game of the Mets-Yankees series. It will be fun,” Steve promised, dodging her attacks.

“Sure, why not?” Natasha said as she swept his legs out from under him.

---

Clint walked into Steve’s apartment with a six-pack of beer. “Afternoon Steve. Ready to watch the Yankees cry like itty-bitty babies?” he stopped walking as he saw Natasha and Steve already watching the game on Steve’s flat-screen.

“What's she doing here?” Clint’s voice was suspiciously close to a whine. “This was supposed to manly bonding time. Among men.”

Natasha settled back into the couch cushions with a handful of pretzels, watching Clint with amusement.

“I’m friends with both of you, but we never hang out together. I bought us all tickets to the game tomorrow and it won’t be fun for Natasha if she doesn’t understand the game at least a little first,” Steve babbled sheepishly.

“I looked baseball up on Wikipedia on the ride over. I think I know everything I need to know,” Natasha put in.

Clint winced, but plunked his six-pack on the coffee table and sat next to Natasha. All three Avengers turned to the television to see the Yankees pitcher strike out the Mets batter in high definition. Clint groaned, Steve covered his face with his hands and Natasha cheered. Both men turned towards her in horror.

“You’re a... a Yankees fan?” Clint spat the words.

Natasha shrugged. “I told you I did some research before coming over. The Yankees seem more likely to win than the Mets, last night notwithstanding. I back winners.”

Steve spluttered. Clint shook his head in disbelief. Natasha’s words proved prophetic, and the Yankees won 3-1.

---

The next day Clint and Natasha showed up to Steve’s apartment together before the game. Natasha was wearing an oversized Mets t-shirt.

“I thought you were a Yankees fan.” Steve said.

“Clint can be persuasive,” Natasha replied.

Clint smirked. “This will be fun. We should hang out together more often.”

*claps* That is excellent! Thank you! I have a sudden image of what that persuasion might have entailed that is giving me all kinds of smiles!
