Fic: If It Ain't Broke (Avengers)

[whisp]

... and suddenly I'm writing fic again. My god, it's been a lot of years. And there'll probably be at least one more coming. *facepalms*

Title: If It Ain't Broke
Author: whisp
Summary: Clint blames this solely on R&D. You think they'd remember to make his hearing aids freaking waterproof. Idiots.

Warnings: Language, Non-physical established

Great story :)

Thank you! It's great that you liked it :)

I absolutely loved this! Clint's insecurity issues are a favourite trope of mine in Avengers fics, and this was fantastic.

[whisp]

Me too! I love insecure!Clint. (btw, if you don't mind Clint/Bruce - even if you do, read it anyways, I just read a fic called assume a defensive stance yesterday and it rocked my insecure!Clint kink)

Anyways, back on track - Thank you for taking the time to reply! I'm glad you liked the fic.

Edit: oops fixed the link, I hope.

Oh man, that was a wonderful fic (and I definitely don't mind Clint/Bruce)! I kinda wish that there was a specific "insecure!Clint" tag on AO3 for nights like this when I just need more. Thanks for the rec!

[whisp]

Wasn't it just awesome?! I'm all for sharing the Clint love. I'm sure someone has a list somewhere of fics organized by kink, we just have to find it.

I love seeing comments like that! There more people I can convert over, the better. :) I'm so glad you liked it.

This is just lovely. I really enjoy stories dealing with Clint's hearing loss and all the little details in this were great - from the difficulty of learning sign language as an adult to the vulnerability Clint feels in battle without his hearing aids. I also loved the team's dynamic and the trust between Clint and Natasha.

I'm glad this fic worked for you. :) Thank you for your kind feedback. It means a lot that you took the time to write what you liked about the fic.

Tony is so Tony in this. I enjoyed it; I think this is the first Deaf!Clint I've read, even though I always wanted to.

[whisp]

lol. Thank you! I'm glad that rang true for you. Tony's so easy to write, I always just think about what would be funny yet horribly inappropiate to say and voila. And I love that he's actually a really good person underneath.

I know there's a handful of other deaf!Clint fics out there. I've found some on AO3 and I think there are some scattered through the rounds at avengerkink

Thanks again for reading!
