Epic Promptathon 2020
It's all go with the Bingo Challenge and AU Exchange, but it wouldn't be summer without THE EPIC SUMMER PROMPTATHON! Yep, it's that time of year again. ARE YOU READY?!
Just before we get started we have some info and rules we’d like you to read…
HOW PROMPTATHON 2020 WORKS
Step One: Leave Prompts
Prompts can be anything – simple or elaborate, words or pictures, songs or poems, lyrics or phrases, anything that inspires a fanwork. Use your imagination. Go wild!
We welcome ALL THINGS MARVEL, although we do like it if Natasha and/or Clint is in there somewhere, individually or as friends, lovers, spouses, partners, in gen fic, ANYTHING. That means we do welcome other characters and pairings (and threesomes or moresomes).
Leave as many prompts as you want. We’re serious. Keep coming back. We want as many prompts as we can possibly get. Just make sure each prompt is in a separate comment.
Step Two: Squee
Been wanting to jump into the fandom but not sure where to start? Now’s the time. Newbie or a lurker? Here’s the perfect opportunity to say hello! Promptathon is a fun, no-pressure environment. If all you want to do is post prompts and share in the squee, you’re more than welcome! And by squee we mean chatting in the chat thread, replying to prompts to chat about prompts, and just lots of excitement all over the place.
Step Three: submit fanworks like there’s no tomorrow!
The usual Community Rules apply. There’s no length requirement on fanworks submitted. You can create drabbles or epics, vids, art, fanmixes, anything at all; it’s just all about getting creative! You can fill as many prompts as you want, and prompts can be filled multiple times by whoever wants to fill them.
HOW TO POST FILLS
1. Respond in a comment to the prompt you are filling. Please post the entire work in the comment if it's short enough OR post a link, and consider posting the first section as a teaser. Please don't post works directly to the comm - we’re all about one-stop shopping, so keep everything in this main promptathon post. We'll do a masterlist of fills at the end.
2. Label your fill/comment in the subject line with 'FILL', your title, and a rating. Example: FILL: 5 Times Clint and Natasha Were Awesome (PG) When filling in the subject line, you may need to view the comm in its original style (if you don't already). Just make sure you can see a subject line when responding with your submission. This makes it A LOT easier for us to make that masterlist and for people to spot your fills.
3. Make sure to include a rating and warnings OR 'choose not to warn' at the start of your fill, as per the comm rules. Help us out and make sure folks know what they're clicking on :)
4. Please put anything NSFW behind a cut or link.
TIMELINE
TODAY: Prompting starts! GO, GO, GO
SUNDAY 2nd AUGUST: We open for fills! (You can also continue prompting)
UPDATED: MIDNIGHT FRIDAY 25 SEPTEMBER: Promptathon, both prompts and fills, ends at midnight in whatever your timezone is PROMPTATHON IS CLOSED!
If you have any questions about anything please feel free to ask! We have a questions thread as the first comment to this post and you can always PM a mod.
OKAY THEN BEST BAR EVER, LET’S GET PROMPTING!

FILL Real Comrades Call Each Other On Their BS, T? (swearing), unbeta'ed, Bucky&Nat, Clint/Nat
"I didn't mean any of it!" Natasha is still briskly walking away, the way the spiky heels of her boots are slamming down on the pavement echoing like gunshots from the alley's walls.
"You're the worst liar in the world," James calls after her with just as much frustration, patting down his pockets for a lighter, as if trying to satisfy an addiction he's left behind more than half a century ago.
"I'm the best fucking liar in the world and you know it," she spits, but at least she's stopped running. Last night's rain rushes down a gutter somewhere, something rustles behind the dumpster but stays wisely out of sight. There is no question as to who the most dangerous predators are in this corner of the night.
"Get your ass back in there and kiss his ugly mug, Romanoff."
Her answering laugh is bitter.
James knows better than to advance on her just yet, so he stands his ground. "I can't believe you're being such a baby about it," he baits, watching closely for the inevitable snap.
"You don't know what the hell you are talking about."
It's the clearest Quit while you still can he's ever heard and his smile glints in the gloom as he cocks his head in invitation. "Fuck off, sestra, I know exactly what's going through that thick head of y-"
He doesn't get any further as he's suddenly busy deflecting Natasha's foot aimed squarely at his solar plexus. Jerking back, he can dodge the following back swing of her elbow just in time to prevent her breaking his nose.
"Stop pretending you're not frightened as a fucking kitten cause the dying man you confessed your love to is gonna live after all!" Exasperation colouring his voice, he pushes her away roughly; the way she overbalances and stumbles back serving to prove his point. He moves in as if to slap some sense into her and, when she predictably evades, intercepts the motion.
For a moment he fears for the safety of his balls, but Natasha melts limply into his embrace, her face hidden in the crook of his neck.
For a long moment, James just holds her while she shakes in silence.
"Clint's gonna be fine," he murmurs against the top of her head after a while. "I'm sure he's gonna get himself thrown off another roof again in no time."
"That's not funny," Natasha's muffled voice drifts up from under the collar of his jacket.
"Maybe not. You know it's true though," James smirks.
Arms around his waist now, she glares up, her eyes flinty but dry. "Wow, you're charming. Remind me again why we're no longer together?"
"'Cause Steve's got a bigger dick than you." Accepting the resulting swat to his chest with a grin, he links his fingers with hers. "Let's get back upstairs, go get your man. Prove to me you have the bigger balls after all."
Yes, I filled my own prompt. My other fics were fighting me and I hoped this would help shake something loose. :P
Inspired by Spectralarchers' gifsets which often star Clint in a hospital bed.

This is my new favorite line of all time. LOL!
