(no subject)

[topaz119]

Those of you who have been around here for a while know of my history with the flyboys. Even those of you who are new around here probably know of that Renner-shaped hole I fell into a couple of years ago.

So, yes, when this came across my tumblr dash, all I could think was oh, I am so, so fucked.

It's a happy sort of fucked, but yes, fucked nonetheless. :D

(Also, sigh, I really wanted that to embed, but I am defeated by the combination of firewalls, iOS, instagram's display code. I'll try to grab it at home.)

I still haven't found the treadmill desks, but I did get all of my stuff pulled together and got on a treadmill in the gym facility for a half-hour this morning, go me? What this means is that I am not leaving until later, which throws me into the teeth of evening rush hour, so I thought this autumn-y ship meme snagged from hamsterwoman would be a pleasant diversion.

Give me a pairing and I'll tell you who:
- Chooses the pumpkin
- Carves the pumpkin
- Gets scared and clings to the other in a haunted house
- Matching costume ideas
- Makes a cozy blanket fort to cuddle in
- Steals the others candy
- Accidentally gets lost in a corn maze
- Tells spooky stories to scare the other
- Collects cool looking leaves

Current and previous fandoms welcome, crossovers are cool, characters from any books or TV shows you've seen me mention are good, and I can probably fake this for most fandoms except TW, bandom, and 99% of the anime fandoms.

Well, I guess I'll throw myself on that grenade and request Clint/Darcy. :)

There is actually a corn maze in play in the last part of in deep with you darling, so I am all over the Autumn!Clint/Darcy!

Darcy buys the pumpkins, plural, and draws the designs, but Clint takes one look at her knife technique and figures he better handle the sharp objects. He turns out to be a super-perfectionist, so they have the creepiest, most elaborate pumpkins Darcy has ever had. (Clint, too, but if his family had jack-o-lanterns, he doesn't remember them.)

Darcy absolutely does some clinging in the haunted house. She is not going to miss out on *that* opportunity, scared or not.

Clint only has one rule: no bow-and-arrow characters. Darcy weeps for the loss of Robin Hood and Maid Marian, but recovers strong with Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood (in the white, backless dress, which goes a long way toward soothing Clint's irritation with having to get dressed up in the first place, thanks a lot, Stark.)

Darcy has to explain the concept of a blanket fort to Clint, but once he gets the idea, he builds the best ones ever.

There is no candy stealing! Darcy has very strict trading rules, and they may gift each other with candy at any time, but no stealing!

(This is not what's happening in Chapter 4. Just sayin'.) To everyone's surprise, Darcy is aces at corn mazes. They all expect her to need rescuing, but she goes through that maze like a pro, Clint following along in her wake, having an awesome time watching her do her thing. (Ok, this Darcy grew up in a semi-rural area where there were always mazes in the fall. She got lost when she was little and vowed never again.)

Darcy is totally addicted to Abbie and Ichabod on Sleepy Hollow, which leads them to the actual short story and then from there to Poe, which Clint ends up reading out loud because Darcy says his voice is better with the subject matter than hers is. Since she wraps herself around him (for protection) while he reads, he's not really objecting.

Darcy really loves the fall and goes nuts collecting leaves and soaking them in glycerin to keep the color. Clint finds himself picking up especially cool looking ones for her whenever he's out and about.

You're welcome--it was super-fun!

I ran through all of the classic scenarios, but then decided they were a little too obvious, but I feel sure Darcy is Team Gale, so yeah, that was one of them.
