Author Website: Just the LJ. Has a Masterlist a fic.
Why this must be read: There are two main reasons this fic should be read. One, it fills in the missing pieces of what happened to Kate after she received a pretty major injury in Secret Invasion, something the comics didn't bother to do. Secondly, the characterization in this fic is perfect. Clint is his sarcastic and caring self and Kate returns his concern with the same stubbornness that earned her the name Hawkeye in the first place.

Also, they call each other Hawkeye a lot, which is kind of delicious, but YMMV on that.


Snippet:

Like, okay. Kate gets that of all the things she could be complaining about, the crappy hospital pudding is probably pretty low on her list of priorities. Or it should be. But she figures, if she doesn't focus on the little things right now she'll be stuck looking at the big picture and if she does that, she might actually go crazy. And she should probably be offended that the food is this awful, anyway; with the amount of money her father throws at these hospitals, the least they can do is make the lunches edible.

She's pretty sure vanilla isn't supposed to taste like asphalt.

Rest Here:
