Hawkeye: A Lucky-Eyed View

A drabble that was actually hard to conceptualize at first, then I just decided to make a list and see what happened. Cute and fun and recip liked.

Bourne Legacy: Mend

So there's this theme in The Bourne Legacy of lostness. It's used in different ways and that's part of why it resonated so well at the end of the movie for me when Marta says she was hoping they were lost. She spends so much of the movie a little lost and a lot broken and you can see that there was emotional/personal trauma before the events of the movie, then she went through a lot of trauma in it that isn't really glossed over. She's lost, she doesn't want to know, she shuts down Aaron when he asks her what she thinks they do out there, if she realizes the practical application of her "science."

"We were there for the science," she said.

"You cannot be that naive."

Throughout this movie, she wants to be lost, she doesn't want to look at things, but even in that, it changes from this broken, head-in-the-sand thing to knowing and choosing to turn away for something better and different and becomes healthy. It's fascinating. Thus, this fic.

Summary:

She knows this glittering thing in his eyes the first time he softens and tells her why it matters so much. She knows the fear, the need to not know or experience.

He's lost.

Hawkeye: My Bruises Are All Older Than You

Hawkeye and Hawkeye and bad date were the prompt. Bad date. Their bad date? It didn't feel right. It niggled and I looked and I got a bad date for Kate and Clint being there for her and there's history with Kate and why she became a hero in the first place and there's history with Clint and why Kate's history is something he didn't handle well in the comics in the past. This resulted.

Summary:

He opens his mouth for one bad moment, and she jerks her head up, gaze locking on with something mute and accusatory, and he drops it, knowing.

Hawkeye: Legacy (or What's in Me is in You)

There's this panel in Fraction's run where Clint says what's in him is in Kate, and the prompt was "I'll be reaching for the stars with you; who cares no one else believes," which made me think of how Clint's the first to correct anyone who thinks of Kate as the junior half of their duo. He'll tease, "protege," but she's not junior or lady hawkeye or anything like that. She's Hawkeye just like he is.

Those thoughts just collided and here, have a ficlet.

MCU: You and Me Both

I was shocked at how much response this Clint/Bobbi piece got. geckoholic did the asking and it was looking for yourself in someone else, and here came this moment when I thought about what Bobbi was looking for in Clint and found. A lot of Bobbi/Hunter feels cropped up and rebounding and rebound sex and secrets and lies and what that means in a spy's spy's world and the fact that MCU Clint seems pretty good at the kind of comfort a spy's spy will accept. So here you go.

Bourne Legacy: Here Be Dragons

Marta, Aaron, PTSD, triggers, muscle memory, and sex. That's it in a nutshell. The prompt about off the map inspired both lostness and the feeling of there's no map to their bodies and their relationship when you consider what they came out of, but they make it work and work around the very real "dragons" that haunt them.

Summary:

They sleep together before they sleep together. They navigate the dragon of her thrashing in the bed and Aaron learning to hush and wake her, not respond with reflexes programmed for war. They slay the dragon of his nightmares, her arms wrapped tenderly around him, her kiss on the back of his neck as he shudders because he cannot touch her there but it is one place he likes to be touched. They soothe the dragons under the skin of her wrists and the skin of his elbows where they were held down and restrained by those who sought to kill them.

I've got a lot of somethings on the docket and a lot of fics in progress, but here's a snippet that I just liked, so wanted to share.

Kate usually used other people like furniture, curling up on them or throwing her legs over Clint's, but Natasha had moved into her usual space on the couch and stretched out over Clint more expansively than even Kate would have.

"Um, guys," Kate said, holding the popcorn bowl hostage and ignoring the wagging dog at her feet. "Show's about to start."

It was time for the Dog Cops season finale and Clint had taken it as a given that she was joining him.

Natasha moved her legs forward four inches, taking Clint's with her and leaving just enough space for Kate to crawl behind if…

She gingerly stretched her legs out over the Black Widow's.

"You can sit all over him," Natasha said, "as long as you don't walk all over him." She reached out and tucked her fingers into the popcorn bowl for a few kernels.

It wasn't actually Clint that Kate was worried about.

"She's like a cat," Clint commented, pushing his knee up to bump Natasha, whose expression turned indulgent at the gesture. "If she lets you sit on her, she's chosen you."

Small relief.

"Or else she's secretly plotting to kill you," he just had to go and add.

He snaked his hand into the bowl and stole some popcorn with a grin.

Kate's eyes slid to the side to study Natasha with deep suspicion.

Natasha smiled.
