So with MCU set in the real world, just expanded a little bit, and our favorite actor and actress doing plenty of other movies that inspire folks to want to imagine them as covers for Clint and Natasha, this is a pairing that frequently makes me poke around the crossover/fusion side of fics

But I love looking their younger (older?) work and "seeing" what they looked like when they were young- Clint Barton totally rocked the guyliner at various points in his life ;)

It's a movie: misfired romance and memory erasure? Hehe.

I don't often go in for fusions because, frankly, most of the time I haven't read the other source material. But there was one I couldn't resist, and it comes out of the fact that most of my Clint-Natasha fics are kind of anchored in their SHIELD identity, rather than the wider Avengers-verse. And because I know *cough* a bit about how government agencies work, the idea of SHIELD being inserted into some of the real-life intelligence agencies out there was just too much fun to leave unexplored.
The result was the two SHIELD/MI-6/Avengers/Bond mash-ups I committed with the kind help of my partner-in-crime, inkvoices, for the Marvel Big Bangs of 2013 and 2014, respectively: "Second Mouse" and Locust Wind. (FYI, we'll be doing a third one this summer to make a trilogy -- the little intermezzo piece, "Loose Ends" doesn't count towards that. Title and plot bunny are expected to gel after Age of Ultron.)

That definition doesn't work for me.
I consider it crossover if both worlds are canonically correct and the characters retain their relationship to their own world.
I consider it fusion if one world is changed by the addition of the other, thus "fused" with the other one. If characters take on new backstories and current work/identities, etc. or merge with another character (actor fusion), then that's a fusion.
As yours retain both source canon and simply let them meet/interact, that would make them crossover from what I understand. The definition of fusion I reject would call it a fusion, which is why I reject it. It's too vague.
