Hello and welcome to the Recathon 2020 masterlist!

This masterlist will be comprised of all recs posted to this post (all 144 of them!), with some small edits. Those edits are:

(1) Duplicate recs have been discarded. Fics appear under the first theme they were rec'd under.
(2) "Self rec" and "rec one of your own fics you think didn't get enough love" have been combined.

Unless otherwise specified, all recs are Clint/Nat or Clint & Nat. Also, unless otherwise specified all recs are fanfiction.

On to the rec list!

Hi All, welcome to the rec party! Like a promptathon but with recs. Everyone is invited - you don't need a DW account or to be a member of the comm to join in. It's time to revisit your bookmarks, discover new and old favourites, and share some fandom fun!


How This Works

1) Comment to this post with a rec request. This can be for something specific, a trope, a pairing, Natasha-centric in advance of the movie, comics, MCU, and for fic, fanvids, fan mixes, absolutely anything you like!

Please post an individual comment per request, but feel free to comment as many times as you want!

We ask that you keep requests Marvel, but all characters, pairings, etc welcome. Where you don't specifically mention characters other than Clint and/or Natasha though it'll be assumed that's the focus you would like.

2) Reply to comments with recs. These can be new, old, self recs, all kinds of media, whatever you think the requester would like based on their ask. Something can be rec-ed more than once if it suits more than one request.

We ask that you keep recs Marvel. Where requests don't specifically mention other characters or pairings, assume the ask is for something that includes Clint and/or Natasha.

PLEASE INCLUDE at least:
- a link
- title
- author/creator
- rating and any warnings OR say 'choose not to warn'
- a brief summary and/or the elements that match the request

3) Bonus round: towards the end of the recathon we also invite you to comment with any recs you'd to share that haven't already been rec-ed, using the format above. Because sometimes there are things we'll love that we didn't think to ask for :)

Discussions of requests and recs more than welcome, just no character or ship bashing. Be kind to each other and stay the best bar <3


Timeline:
Now: post your rec requests
Starting Sunday 22 March: get rec-ing, keep requesting
Starting Sunday 29 March: bonus free for all recs open

Friday 3 April Midnight GMT: recathon closes
RECTATHON IS NOW CLOSED!


If you have any questions just let us know in the first thread on this post.

Have fun!

Hello people of the best bar and welcome to 2020! As has become traditionally, to start the new year on a positive note we're kicking off with things we're looking forward to this year.

2020 is the year we finally get a Black Widow movie (!!!), plus The Eternals, there's a new Hawkeye comic out this week (Hawkeye: Freefall) that's getting cracking reviews, and that's just in the Marvel corner of the big wide world. What are you looking forward to in 2020? Do you have any fics, fanvids, or other creative works you hope to start/progress/finish this year? (Can we have a sneak peak?) Have you made any new year’s resolutions? What films/books/tv shows are coming out this year that you’re excited about? Let’s have a chat about good things!

We love Clint/&Natasha, but also all things Marvel, AND things outside of Marvel, so feel free to share wider interests. Maybe you'll spread the excitement to someone else who'll find a new favourite thing!

And never posted before? Come join in! New year is a great time to welcome new people :)

How to play: share some things you're looking to in 2020 in a comment to this post to get chatting. If you'd like, copy and paste the contents of the text below to give you some ideas:





Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Welcome to the weekend!

This Friday we're going old school - it's time for some Clint/Natasha recs. We're looking for the fics that got you into the fandom, or your favourites, the ones you've gone back to to recover from Endgame, the new ones that have made you fall in love with this pairing all over again... and the fanvids, the fan mixes, the fan art, all the things, of course. ALL THE CLINT/NATASHA RECS.

Indulge that nostalgia :)

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.

Hi All,

The latest is that we're doing an Avengers Endgame Fix-it Fest and you can sign up on AO3 until 10 June 7am GMT!

(When that wraps up we'll sail into the big summer promptathon...)

We've also been reviving the ATTFs since Endgame has given our corner of the fandom a boost. Look out for a post about recs coming this Friday! And if you would like to host or suggest ideas for ATTFs you can do that here! Reminder that All The Things Fridays aren't just for Fridays - unless there's some kind of challenge deadline they run all weekend, or longer until we run out of steam :)

Plus don't forget you don't have to wait until an ATTF if you have things relevant to our interests to share with the comm - you can post your fics, recs, headcannons, pretty pictures, fan vids, and ANYTHING with Clint and/or Natasha in it both to this DW comm and to our comm tumblr. (That means anything with Clint/Natasha or both of them in any combination, or with either of them in regardless of who they're paired with, or gen things.)

In the wider world, they appear to be filming the Black Widow movie (it'll take me until I'm actually sat in the cinema and the title credits appear for me to believe it *grins*), Spider-Man: Far From Home is due out in July, and author sign ups have just closed for Marvel Big Bang 2019 but artist sign ups are still open until September.

Anything else happening that's relevant to our interests? Share in the comments!

Folks of the bar, please be aware that the Avengers: Endgame spoiler ban has now ended. The following post CONTAINS SPOILERS.


Natasha Romanoff. The Black Widow. Capturing our attention since Iron Man 2 with flipping Happy, kicking ass, and quoting latin. Keeping it from her first subverting expectations scene in Avengers, and then THOSE SCENES with Clint Barton that had us all hooked.

Many films later and now we know how it ends. (Black Widow movie pending - fix it, backstory, who knows?)

This is a post for appreciating and celebrating a character we love. Bring your recs, your fics, your fanart and graphics, fanvids, playlists, ALL THE THINGS. Let's throw Natasha Romanoff the wake/party she deserves.


Fix-its welcome, but we might do something specific around that shortly - watch this space. Discussion and all opinions very welcome, just no character or ship bashing and please remember to be kind to each other. Best bar <3



Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.

Hello people of the best bar and welcome to 2019! (Well, in about an hour and a half in my part of the world.) We’re kicking things off with a New Year’s Party chatting about the things we’re looking forward to this year.

2019 is the year of Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame (!!!), and Spider-Man: Far From Home, but other than that - what are you looking forward to in 2019? Do you have any fics, fanvids, or other creative works you hope to start/progress/finish this year? (Can we have a sneak peak?) Have you made any new year’s resolutions? What films/books/tv shows are coming out this year that you’re excited about? Let’s have a chat about good things!

And this comm may be THE place to hang out in Clint/&Natasha corner of the fandom *grins* but we ALSO love the rest of the Marvel universe and - strange but true - also things other than Marvel. So do tell us about things in the wider world that you’re excited about as well. Maybe you’ll spread the excitement to someone else who’ll find a new favourite thing!

And never posted before? Come join in! New year is a great time to welcome new people :)

This weekend is our community’s annibirthday (6 years since we started out on LJ) and it’s the tenth birthday of the MCU (Iron Man was released in May 2008)! To celebrate we’re having a good old fashioned nostalgic REC-A-THON.

How It Works: You can pick and choose from the handy meme format below, or use all of it, or just get commenting with recs of ALL THINGS MARVEL. Rec your favourite Clint/Natasha and Clint & Natasha works, branch out and rec things that focus on other characters, pairings, and teams in the MCU, or go really wild and even rec things from the comics. It's party time and everyone's invited!

This is a spoiler free zone so NO INFINITY WAR recs, mentions, or anything. We are here for the last ten years of Marvel and a mountain of nostalgia :)

Copy and paste for suggestions on getting started:





Things to remember:
1) Nothing Infinity War. At all.

HELLO BEST BAR. New Year, New Excitements, New Frustrations, NEW MOD (HELLO!)

Yes, ‘tis I, your new mod, kicking off [community profile] be_compromised 2018 ATTF with: THINGS WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO IN 2018.

2018 has to be better than 2017 right? I mean, for one, we’re getting Black Panther this February which obviously makes this February better than last, right? And this is also the year of Infinity War and Bearded Cap (!!!).

But other than that, what are you looking forward to? Do you have any fics, fanvids, or other creative works you hope to start/progress/finish this year? (Can we have a sneak peek?) Have you made any new year's resolutions? What films/books/TV shows are coming out this year that you're excited about?

Let's have a chat about good things! And I know that this is a Clint/&Natasha comm but we’re all friends here right? Branch out! Is there a non-Marvel film that you’re stoked for? (They do exist: strange but true!) Excited for a book that’s being released this year? Tell us about it! Maybe someone else is excited about it too. (I, for one, am excited about Nick Hawkaway’s Gnomon being released in paperback this year so I can finally read it.)

Hello all and welcome to your weekend entertainment!

This week's ATTF is all about the recs.

Comment with something that you'd like to read/see. It could be a specific fic, fanvid, graphic, meta post etc that you remember but just can't quite remember the title of or no longer have a link to. It could be something that you're really in the mood for, like hurt/comfort, Avengers as family, sexy times. It could be that you've recently gotten into a new Marvel pairing (or threesome or moresome!) or you're after something classic MCU or a type of AU or comics related or...anything under the sun or the darkest of starless nights. Please post an individual comment per request, but feel free to comment as many times as you want - like we do for prompts for promptathons. Basically this is prompathon but with recs. (Oh the cleverness of the title for this week's ATTF *grins*)

The rest of us will then reply with recs. Multiple recs allowed, self recs allowed, ALL THE RECS! I have faith in the vastness of your bookmarks.

And y'know what? If you want to share things and there's no comment request for that sort of thing? REC IT ANYWAY. Because sometimes we don't know we're gonna like it until we meet it :)



If you'd like to host an ATTF, suggest ideas, or see what's coming up you can find that all of that at our ATTF SIGN UP POST!

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.

COMMUNITY BANNER: a brand new banner this month from [livejournal.com profile] perpetuations, beautiful and suitably atmospheric for Halloween as much as darker (winter) days so I thought I'd put it up a little earlier than November :) If you'd like to make a banner for our community, especially any seasonally themed ones, we'd love to see them! Send them in to be_compromised@hotmail.com
A few banner making things to note )

ALL THE THINGS FRIDAY: It's been quiet, but ATTF is still going until December. Please Sign Up and make suggestions HERE to make Fridays fun.

HALLOWEEN: Keep your eyes peeled for a little something hitting the comm at witching hour tonight in time for October 31st!

SECRET SANTA: Hope you're all having fun getting creative for this year's exchange! If you didn't manage to sign up or would like to get even more involved you can volunteer here to be a graphics maker, pinch hitter, beta reader, or cheerleader.

DOCTOR STRANGE: we have a discussion post HERE. Please play nice and don't post spoilers anywhere on the comm, keep them on the discussion post. (Nope, I have no idea if this will affect Clint or Natasha or how it'll impact the MCU as a whole, because I haven't seen it yet, but hey, new Marvel film!)

RECS: [livejournal.com profile] meatball42 posted a rec list this week - check it out :) Don't forget that we like ALL THINGS Cint and/OR Natasha in these parts, anything with one or both of our assassins in, all pairings and team fic and what have you welcome, and we definitely love recs. What're you been reading or spotted recently? Let us know in the comments or feel free to do some rec posts of your own.

IN THE WIDER WORLD WIDE WEB: Marvel Big Bang is in the middle of posting. I have no idea what else is going on - probably something with YuleTide - give us a shout in the comments and let us know what's happening and what seasonal fun you're all involved with!

For [livejournal.com profile] alphaflyer, who mentioned wanting something short to read after a long day, I found one of my favorite fluffy Clintasha fics. Can't get me enough of Liho and Lucky :D This fic is set in Fraction and Aja's Hawkeye verse, featuring Kate as your friend who you really should listen to more often than you do.

  Serendipity, by silverfoxflower

  "Why are you still in bed?" Kate demands, kicking at a corner of Clint’s mattress, which, rude. Why were girls and cats always so rude to him.

  "Lucky turned into a cat," Clint says, burying his head in the pillow. "I’m hoping that if I wake up tomorrow, he’ll be back to normal."

Hello all and welcome to this week's all the things friday's EPIC REC PARTY!

Read a good fanfic lately that you'd like to share or some old favourites? Looking for specific fics or just a general genre you're in the mood for? Watched a great fanvid, seen some gorgeous art, laughed at something on tumblr, found a great gif? Podfics, playlists, icons, all the things? Looking for any of those? SEARCHES AND SHARING OF ALL THE THINGS WELCOME.

Feel free to rec and request things from the wider Marvel universe as well as things featuring Clint and/or Natasha. And if you end up chatting with people about things non-Marvel *gasp* feel free to rec each other books and films and tv shows and other things as well. To keep things easy to spot just please put something in your comment's subject line to indicate the content.

And: this comm is no longer a spoiler-free zone for Civil War so Civil War recs and searches are also welcome.

Bring on the party!






Reminder: you can sign up to host ATTF or suggest ATTF ideas HERE. We're looking for hosts and ideas for June and July :)

Hello all and welcome to All The Thing Friday Image Fest!

We haven’t had any recs for pretties in a while, so today is a day to feast your eyes on images, funny gifs, fanvids, picspams, icons, banners, and all things images. Share and rec all the things!

Anything not safe for work please put NSFW in the comment subject box, just in case ;) Anything that’s an Age of Ultron spoiler, be kind and stick it behind a cut.

Not sure how to share?

Dearest and most beloved of Bars!

First things first:  IT'S FRIDAY!!!  *ahem*

Today, I thought, we could talk about things that might have happened before our great ship yacht sailed, and how/whether/if the existence of previous partners might feature in the lives of our favourite assassins, and how.

We know from comics canon (possibly, but not definitively modified in the MCU by Agents of SHIELD) that Clint was married to Bobbi Morse/Mockingbird.  How does he react when they run into each other at SHIELD?  How do they get along?  Would she and Natasha be friends?  ("So Bobbi tells me that I should just give up now on you ever putting the cap back on the toothpaste.  Lost cause, she says."  "When did you talk to her??  You guys doing some kind of all-girl conspiracy thing??"  "She also says you like to be scratched behind the ear, like a cat."  "That's total bullshit.  She's having you ...  hmmmm... do that again?")

We also understand from comics canon that Natasha and The Winter Soldier may, at some point, been together.  What was that like?  How, if true, would it impact on Steve's search, and Natasha's willingness to help, beyond handing him the file with a warning? Would Clint be nervous what might happen when Barnes turns up?

Then, there are of course other options.  My burgeoning head canon has Clint having had a fling with Melinda May at some point (strictly friends with benefits, although [livejournal.com profile] igrockspock turned that into a former marriage, in her wonderful story Two Truths and One Lie.)  We know May has Nat on speed dial, so what do they text each other about that won't pass the Bechdel test??

Give us your head canons, meta, recs, ficlets, snippets ...  And remember:

The Good Ship C/N Promptathon
of Magic and Joy: Round 3



Break out the confetti canons!!

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 WILD. All we ask is that you place anything NSFW under a cut or link, use trigger warnings when appropriate, and place anything spoiler-y under a cut with a warning. As this is a Clint/Natasha promptathon, your prompts and fanworks can include other characters, but the central focus must be on Clint and/or Natasha. If you’re posting large images, please be mindful of members with slower Internet connections and place the image under a cut or link.

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.
Keep leaving prompts and plan your fanworks! This is a time for celebration and creating all of the things. Work hard, shippers.

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. We will make an official post about rules in the time leading up to submissions. Please read it before posting, as responsible partying is to be encouraged at all times.

Timeline

Prompting starts today, August 2nd and will remain open until August 9th. Submissions will start on August 16th, and will remain open until August 31st.  It is, in fact, A WHOLE MONTH OF PROMPTATHON.

If you can’t complete your fanwork by August 31st, that’s okay. You’re still welcome to post your fanwork to the community! However, the promptathon masterlist will only include fanworks from August 16-31.

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. If all you want to do is post prompts and share in the squee, that’s fine too!




  • Meet new and awesome people. Newbie or lurker? Here is the perfect opportunity to say hello!



  • Ship like you’ve never shipped before.


If you have any questions, feel free to contact the mod team.

Have fun, everyone. Now fly, my pretties, fly!

SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED.


Thanks to everyone who participated!
