Selenay
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Avengers (2012)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Clint Barton/Phil Coulson
Characters: Clint Barton, Phil Coulson, Maria Hill, Natasha Romanov
Summary: Phil Coulson can't dance. Clint Barton needs a partner. Somehow, they're going to make it work.
A sort of Dirty Dancing AU thing. Ish.
Notes:
So this came about through a Twitter conversation where Fahre said, "Nobody puts Coulson in a corner. You know you want to." I replied that there was no way I was writing that, it was insane, it would never work and don't you know who Coulson is?
And then I said that I'd need to remove a whole bunch of subplots, change a whole bunch of other things and it would only work if I took the broad storyline and adapted it like crazy, here's the outline I have so far and it will never work. She listened, nodded, and waved pom poms like mad.
Somehow a conversation that was supposed to be about how it couldn't possibly work, no way, never ever, ended up with me writing it. This was going to be a short fic to prove that there was no way a Dirty Dancing fusion AU could work. 19k words later and it's not short. I'm still not sure whether it works or not.
In other words, blame Fahre. This is all her fault. She gave me full permission to throw her to the wolves for this :-D
