be_compromised Secret Santa. I originally had another of her prompts in mind, but somehow that request for ‘anything deaf!Clint related’ would not be denied. It’s perhaps a tad angstier than usual for a holiday exchange, but that’s the story that wanted out. To compensate, I gave a bit of a nod to her other request – Clint and Natasha on a mission, being the awesome spies they are.
This story is indebted to Fraction’s brilliant “Hawkeye #19” (but not really comics ‘verse); the title is drawn from Simon & Garfunkel’s “Sounds of Silence.” It also echoes the events in "Locust Wind", but you’d have to squint pretty hard to make things fit. Thanks to my awesome beta,shenshen77, and to ohmydarlingdear for the great banner.
Read it here on AO3
In other news, I finished a piece forigrockspock's friends exchange today so I'm kind of creatively spent. I owe a couple of days on my December meme but will try and catch up with the requests tomorrow, especially since they're really good ones!
