    Summary

    He turns to Natalia. “So, Natasha. When you’re free, what’re you gonna do?”

    Free. The word is heavy and hollow in her mind, occupying all the space like it’s important. Free. Natalia knows, deep down, she’ll never be free. A puppet that cuts its own strings is still a puppet. A boar that runs away from its herder is still a boar. A girl who runs away from the Red Room is still a girl.

    She laughs, actually laughs. It’s sharp and cold, like the blade of a knife.

    “I don’t think I’ll ever be free.” Natalia says.

    Natasha Romanoff is a Russian-sculpted Black Widow, given the mission of taking out Clint Barton and Maria Hill. Things go sideways, fast.

    Summary

    “I said drop it,” the man repeated, “I don’t want to hurt you.”

    She smiled, something sharp and dangerous. “Says the man who had an arrow aimed for my heart.”

    “You’re still here, aren’t you? I think that alone says something.”

    “It says you’re too weak to take the shot.”

    OR:

    Natalia Romanova meets Clint Barton, the man sent to kill her. Only he doesn’t.

    Natalia doesn’t know why he spared her life, but she’s not stupid. She knows how this kind of thing works.

    Protection is a currency. Bodies are bargaining chips. If she wants to escape the horrors awaiting her at SHIELD, she’ll have to pay for his mercy.

    Summary

    Natasha Romanoff is determined to move forward, to do that she must move back, to face the monster of her past and eliminate his hold on her life forever. Freedom is rarely ever free, however, and Natasha must weigh the price she is willing to pay for it against the debt of blood that already stains her soul. Could this come at the cost of the new and fragile family she has built for herself?

    The final installment of the What Wicked Webs series, and the 9th story in the Timeless series.

    Summary

    "For some reason Tony would NEVER understand, everyone dropped the subject of the vodnik. He asked once why the critter seemed to know Natasha, and Barnes had threatened to slit his throat if he ever asked again. Tony wasn’t sure if the guy was kidding.

    So he didn’t ask. "

    Natasha is a lot older, and a lot more powerful, than the Avengers first realized. Well. Phil and Clint knew.

    Bucky? Bucky was trying to forget the whole damn thing. Shut up and pass the bottle.

    Summary

    "Was I… too big?" Antonia asked just as Natasha had figured she wasn’t going to address it. She could see it on the girl’s face, the question of whether there had been something wrong with her, if there was something wrong with her.
    Natasha was already shaking her head before Antonia had gotten the last word out. "I was too small," she said. "You were perfect."

    -or-

    When Natasha Romanoff was thirteen, she had a child she believed to be dead. For the first nineteen years of her life, Antonia Dreykov assumed her mother was dead- until they came face to face.

    Summary

    Once Dreykov was dead, once the Red Room was gone, things would be different.

    That's what Natasha was telling herself again and again.

    Once he was gone, she would be free—whatever that meant. She just had to kill him. Easy.

    (Not so easy.)

    Or,

    Natasha makes a different call in Budapest and that might just change her whole life.

    Summary

    A canon rewrite, expansion and in-depth exploration of the ENTIRE Marvel Cinematic Universe. It consists of novel-length fics, novella-length fics and one-shots (one chapter only fics).

    I started this project in May 2023, with the plan to write over at LEAST 50 fics in this universe/series — some which will be major novelizations of existing movies and projects, and some that will be completely or mostly new, but add to the overall plot. See the tags on each fic to catch what will be new and how much each fic diverts from canon.

    If you want to keep up with what I'm doing, I'll be posting updates on Tumblr (at https://www.tumblr.com/mcsquared789). Whether you are visiting or checking on a new fic, thank you for checking it out! I welcome any and all of you.
