WHAT DID I TELL YOU

transemacabreOne of my predictions for Avengers fandom has already come true! After reading through AO3's Avengers page, I've already found several fanfics that give Clint Barton a backstory of sexual abuse while he was growing up in the circus.
Did I or did I not call it? Bazinga!
Incidentally, the first one I found featured not just rape, but gang rape for extra angstitude. It's like a bad marketing slogan. For when regular rape isn't enough, trust gang rape.
Another fic had Clint being molested by Trickshot when he was about twelve. Okay, this is movie fandom, but even so, I think if anything like that had happened, Barney would've cut Trickshot's throat while he slept. Nevermind that Barney would've been about fourteen. HE CRAZY.
