Insta!Rec (Well, I saved it for the weekend because it's another long one):
White Blank Page by AlliSnow
Clint/Natasha, Steve, Fury, Hill, Tony, Pepper, OCs; genre: action/drama/mission fic/romance; rating: mature; 70555 words
Summary: Debt is beautiful only after it has been repaid.
(note: don't take a peek at the ending; you wanna read this one unspoiled!)

“She didn’t tell you, did she?” asks Rogers carefully. “That she was afraid.”
Clint snorts. He thinks about sitting in a grubby Parisian café across from Nat, telling her about Fury’s issues and not realizing that she was in more danger than he was. He had thought that because her signature weapon wasn’t as obvious as his bow, that because her hands and feet were often the only weapons she needed, she was home free.

Not only the most interesting take on the whole idea of 'being unmade' I've read so far, but one of my favorite longfics overall. Great writing style, the characterizations are amazing and the plot cost me a few hours of sleep because I didn't want to put it down.
