Hit me with a fandom/character/pairing and I'll list my three most unpopular opinions about it.

Oh, sweetie, I could write a novel with my unpopular opinions about this ship.

First, the Winter Soldier is a PAINFULLY overused plot point. PAINFULLY. The Winter Soldier just showed up in a series I otherwise absolutely adore and I almost cried. People, there is a movie coming out about the Winter Soldier. The Captain America comics most well-known arc is all about this character. Get him the fuck out of your fanfic. It’s especially egregious because there is *already* an evil sniper with deeply personal ties to Clint (his name is Barney Barton).

Speaking of, Barney Barton and Clint’s backstory in general is painfully UNDERused in Clint/Natasha fanfics.

Third, if Clint and Natasha had a kid, it is 99% more likely that they would wind up accidentally adopting a kid who didn’t have a home than fuck up with their birth control.

Fourth and finally, NATASHA IS 1000X FIERCER THAN YOU’RE WRITING HER.
