Two things

1) I'm looking for a specific clint centric fic that I read ages ago, probably only shortly after the avengers came out in cinema. It was about Clint's recruitment and his childhood in the circus. Probably eventually clint/coulson though could have been gen. Epic length and I'm sure I read it on Ao3. I only vaguely remember that it portrayed the relationship between Clint and Barney really well and there was a particular scene that I remember clearly in which Clint came out to Barney by calling himself a fag very casually. Afraid that's all I can really recall. I've been looking for this one for ages so I'm really hoping someone can point me in the right direction from these really vague details. Thanks in advance!

2) I'd love any stucky recs that have a period accurate portrayal of homosexuality. This series is a heartbreakingly perfect example: http://archiveofourown.org/series/91129

Thanks guys!

First one is The Hunter of Waverly, Iowa (http://archiveofourown.org/works/429480/chapters/725332) by NezumiPi - it's in chapter 5.

Np! It's one of my favorite fics, so I could grab the link right away, just had to skim to figure out the chapter. ;)
