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

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. :)

I will probably never finish writing this myself, so here, I throw my prompt to the wind and let all the awesome people here pick it up instead.

Clint suffers something traumatic... could be fallout from Loki taking over his brain or it could be something else (I was going for injury resulting in hearing loss, but do with it what you will). Clint is not coping, not at all, and Natasha is the only person who can really get through to him. She knows the only way to help him.

She gets a training bow and set of arrows. She sets up a course with hay bales, targets, hoops to jump through, ramps. And horses.

Because despite the hell that was his childhood, he finds comfort, a deep internal healing peace, in the routine of the training he spent so many years receiving. Being the best shot in the act wasn't enough to draw a crowd. He had to be the best mounted archer around.

Horses. I love you for the horses. (Damn, I wish I had some kind of time... *eyes sanity and wonders how little I can get away with*)

I have been playing with a fic based around this for about a month now and still can't seem to get anywhere with it.

But I really want to read it. I love horses. I used to showjump, just local stuff, and it was the best experience of my life. If I could do that AND archery, I think I'd be in heaven. So naturally I want to transfer that to Clint.

Besides, how awesome would it be to just get the visual picture in your head? He runs alongside the horse. Comes up a ramp, jumps at just the right time, maybe even somersaults in the air. And lands, perfectly, on the back of the still galloping horse. And to do it and hit a target? OMG DO WANT.

Clint and horses and archery. Blend well and voila. The perfect story.
