Clint-Coulson fix-it fic

[timepiece]

I've lost a fic and can't re-locate it. It's a "Coulson didn't die" fic, and when the Avengers find out, they all march down to wherever SHIELD has him, and Clint climbs straight onto the bed and kisses him, which is everybody's first clue about *that* relationship. Except maybe Natasha.

I keep thinking I remember other scenes, but they turn out to be from other fics that don't have that particular reunion scene in them.

Actually, I like ANY fic where the Avengers discover on their own that Phil's still alive, without Phil or Fury telling them voluntarily, so if you want to rec others ....

Here are some of the they-find-out-on-their-own fix-it fics I have saved

(well, Hill tattles on Fury's scheme)

There are several others but I don't have them tagged properly. And I've read the one you're referring to, but it's not simple to search for.

No, no it's not. Especially when I've read a bunch of these, and can't look for any other scenes because they might be from other fics. I thought for sure it was the one where Darcy slaps Fury and calls him a son of a bitch, but I found that one (The Avengers' Compass Rose), and that's not it. And not everyone uses the "Fix-it" tag. It might not even be marked Clint/Coulson, if they're only a background ship.

It would be nice if I could limit a search to items in my history (on AO3), or limit the fandoms/pairings currently visible in my history. Trolling through my history is taking a loooong time.

Which is why I threw myself on the mercy of this group after a few days of looking.

Was it http://archiveofourown.org/works/566626 Another apple to slice into pieces?

[timepiece]

No, I've never read this one before. Though I'm saving it for later, it looks pretty good so far.

YES! That's it! Thank you! (off to bookmark, with fix-it and Fury lies and dramatic reunion tags)

Sadly, there isn't much more to it, and no sequel. Oh, well. The confrotation with Fury was pretty good, and not being able to find it was really irking me, so it's ald good now.
