leashy_bebesTitle: Aripâ by foxxcub
Fandom: Avengers
Rated: Explicit
Pairings: Clint/Phil, Clint/Natasha
Author's Summary: "I wish I could fly," he whispers.
Word Count: 11.7k
Why I Loved It: !!!!! OKAY. First of all, I am assiduously avoiding any and all Clint backstory fic until I've finished my own. I made an exception for this one, because foxxcub's Avengers fics are AMAZING. And also, in all honesty, I was expecting to only like this for the writing. Because wing-fic. Which, even though I've pretty much ALWAYS been in fandoms where wing-fic makes total sense, it has never, ever done it for me. I'm just like eh, wings.
ANYWAY, ignore that, clearly I was some kinda stupid because this fic is AMAZING. The parts about Clint's life before he came into SHIELD are largely comic canon (so watch out for potential triggers in the forms of physical and emotional abuse) and they encapsulate so, so well all the reasons I am fascinated with this dude. Particularly fantastic are the scenes with Natasha and the way Clint's puppy love turns into the BroTP of my fucking heart okay. (Headcanon all over the place oh god.)
The way that both Clint and Natasha grow into their places within SHIELD is brilliantly done, and Coulson's presence is, again, just total headcanon for me, in that he's this source of calm that Clint doesn't quite understand and probably would never have imagined he needed but augh *hands*
LOVE THIS FIC/PAIRING/WRITER/POINT IN PRE-MOVIE-CANON.
Go go go!

Date: 2012-09-11 01:47 pm (UTC)I am running out of C/C fic very quickly even though there is 78 pages of it on AO3. I wonder if this is what having a true OTP is like that you will read basically anything no matter what kink/genre/side pairings etc it involves because you just love them so effing much. So far I have only backbuttoned out of 1 fic with this pairing because to me, they are all just that good.
Have you read Tale of the Bots, yet? I can't spell the authors name but if you google it it's one of the top entries and it is so very geeky and beyond awesome.

And yeeees, omg, I love her fics!
