Let’s have a quick talk about Clint Barton. This little shit is an orphan who grew up in the circus and somehow managed to become an avenger. This DEAF motherfucking ARCHER was asked by Tony Stark to be Captain America and he said no. He said NO to becoming Captain America. He finds out some random 20 y/o girl becomes Hawkeye while hes “dead” and what does he do? He tells her the world is big enough for TWO HAWKEYES and they form a team and he tries act as a mentor. They are both Hawkeye. Not Hawkeye and lady-Hawkeye. Just two Hawkeyes. He fights street crime when he’s not on missions. He’s friends with his neighbors. He made an ultron costume for Halloween. When his brother stole all his money and bought an island, he got over it. He rescued and adopted a one eyed dog named lucky/pizza dog. Did I mention he’s deaf? And can’t hear without hearing aids. And he wears his own merchandise. He wears Hawkeye underwear. Hawkeye wears Hawkeye underwear.
Summary: Clint does not appreciate his captors’ hospitality. Can you give negative stars on Yelp?
WARNING: This chapter deals with being imprisoned and contains disturbing imagery, graphic violence, mentions of non-consensual drug use, and graphic descriptions of torture, including torture by drowning which requires resuscitation. Despite Clint’s sarcastic commentary and major levels of sass, it is rough. Please be careful with yourself.
Title is from “Lonely Bird,” a poem by Judith S.
Thank you to the Discord Crew for all of their help with this. Especially to @whinywingedwinchester, who keeps screaming at me every time I write another sentence in the best way. I love you guys. ❤
Summary: The explosion leaves a lot of people trapped and lost. Tony tries to dig people out of the rubble outside the building, but not everyone can be saved. Inside the building, Clint has his own problems, and meets some tiny fans.
WARNINGS: This chapter contains the after-effects of an explosion and the collapse of a building, medical trauma horror, deaths of original characters, injury/death to children, and people trapped in a collapsed building/beneath rubble. Also, non-consensual drug use and paralyzation due to drug administration.
Full Fic Summary: It’s been little over a year of the Avengers working together and they’ve become close. They’ve become friends. Family, some of them will whisper quietly, but only in the deepest parts of their minds where no one else can hear.
When a mission goes wrong and Clint is killed, all of the Avengers are affected, but Tony disappears into his workshop for days. When he finally comes out, he has a new AI: a robotic bird named Featherbrain, who speaks in a familiar voice.
Meanwhile, Clint wakes up, a prisoner in a cell, but he’s not alone. Sitting across from him is Loki, and no one knows where either of them are. They’ll have to work together to escape, but how can Clint possibly trust Loki?
