Summary: Barton has disappeared overnight and a large angry hawk is the only clue left behind. Phil and the rest of the Avengers are determined to do whatever it takes to get him back. Inspired by numerous fairy tales and folk tales.
Reccer's Notes: Long, brilliant, and wonderful. There's a (not so) merry chase, a time limit with significant consequences, and choices to be made.

Relationship(s): Clint/Natasha
Summary: The carnival stops for a stick of a lad, nothing but bones and bones are what he’s burying. Natasha doesn’t care what his story is. She’s not a goddamn fortune-teller. Clint is a farm boy that the carnival picks up and Natasha is one of the carnival’s dancers. Avengers/Carnivàle fusion.
Reccer's Notes: Mesmerizing. No knowledge of Carnivale is necessary (I googled it, but the information I gleaned didn't extend much beyond "surreal travelling carnival during the 1930's Dust Bowl era"). It's a fantastic character piece with a bleak but hopeful undertone that well suits the characters.
