Reactions and Reviews
One of the fics that made me ship Phil/Clint. I liked a lot how it is shown the development of their relationship.[2]
This is literally one of the best that I've read. I was reading just a few pages and I navigated between classes, and I got so caught up in it that I forgot where I was going and overshot until I hit a dead end. [3]
Let’s start with the language/style. I’m kinda anal about it, because if something has a bad language, I just don’t read it. But this one has a nice language and it’s funny. It’s not meant to be a comedy, so you won’t laugh out laud every few minutes, but it’s hard not to be sarcastic with this two as your main characters. The whole story basically consists of the Moments of Their Lives so you won’t have one plot in it and it heavily fokus on Clint and Coulson’s relationship. It has a changing point of view, but 90% of time Clint’s a narrator.[4]
Because BAMF!Coulson, who actually *listens* to BAMF!mouthy!Clint is my favourite tone for this pairing. This story is pretty much my head canon for this pairing. Also, laceymcbain writes in multiple fandoms, and all of her work is worth checking out.[5]
