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

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. :)

COLD APPROACH: An often-risky attempt to recruit a foreign national as an agent or informer without any prior indication that the person might be receptive to such an offer. Usually made after evidence that the target is in desperate need of money, or is simply greedy or perhaps unhappy in his/her work or lifestyle.

I approve of this dictionary.

It is the very best dictionary.

Fic, World serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs, PG 13, (2/12)
Okay, there's going to have to be a bit of follow the bouncing ball going on here. I wrote a fic which encompasses all twelve of these espionage terms. Don't worry, I'll link to the next part of the series at each drabble, and I will also have it posted in its entirety at AO3 and eventually at my personal journal.

The espionage term is referenced in some way in the drabble.

Title is taken from It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) by R.E.M.

Warnings (for the whole series): minor violence and swearing

***

Clint watches as the Widow comes out of the party, after having sent all her marks outside, goes up to the first man who was waiting for her, and slits his throat with a knife from a thigh holster. She repeats the gesture with the second man, third man, fourth man, until they all lie at her feet. Clint hasn’t heard her make a sound the entire time, and knows she wouldn’t have anyway. She’s much too professional for that. After she’s finished with the last man, she wipes her hands off on a wet wipe from her purse, and appears to sink into herself.

Clint knows that look, it’s the same look he had after he’d realised that no matter how many people he’d killed as a soldier, there was always going to be more that needed killing. SHIELD had been the one to find him then, offering him a job utilizing his archery skills from the circus. They had prevented him from going the same way as his father, and he was thankful for it. Watching her some more, as she appears to be indecisive about whether she wanted to go back to the party or slip into the night, he makes a decision. He’ll give her a second chance.

FIC: In from the Cold; rated: M; warnings: some swearing and mature situations.
“Don’t worry, sweet one, it will only hurt for a moment.”

Natasha Romanoff felt her heart begin to race a little faster at the sound of the all-too-familiar male voice breathing in her ear; the voice that had starred in her nightmares for much of her young life. And while she logically knew this was a nightmare and that she should move, taking down the son of a bitch in the most painful ways she knew, she was immobilized. Every time it was different - ropes, chains, drugs - and every time it ended the same: waking up drenched in sweat and fighting off the urge to vomit.
