    Summary

    "Laura's a translator for SHIELD," Natasha tells him. "We're keeping her."

    "Are we?" Clint asks, and Nat just rolls her eyes, tucks a strand of Laura's hair back behind her ear.

    "Yeah," she says, "we are," and Clint feels like he's missed something, can't parse the situation properly, but that's a feeling he's had pretty much every day for the last twenty one months, since he pulled Natasha Romanoff out of Prague and into the questionably welcoming arms of SHIELD.

    Summary

    Inspired by prompt: 'Peter is unmasked on live television, and everyone goes berserk—you've already heard this one but here's the twist—he's wide-eyed, staring into the camera, frightened, but not because of his own safety. The first thing that comes out of his mouth is, "Someone please, please protect my Aunt May." And the entirety of New York cries out simultaneously. Heroes and neighbours and fellow students rain down on the Parker house, ready to defend her.'

    Summary

    The fall is longer than Natasha expects.

    It’s tears cold on her face, teeth bitten all the way through her lip and the taste of copper in her mouth; she’s falling and falling and then, bracing for impact—she wakes up.

    Summary

    “Tell me the truth,” Nat murmurs, softer. Takes her cap off, sets it down on the back of the couch. “If I said you were pretty, Steve, would you like it?”

    All Steve can hear in her voice is honesty, just on this side of raw; it’s not her bloodless spy’s curiosity, not the way she’d asked about Peggy’s photo down in Camp Lehigh. Not a question just to gauge his reaction. Not teasing, either: this feels like she’s waiting on an answer that matters personally, maybe, and that decides him.

    “Yeah,” he agrees, already breathless. “Yeah, Nat, I would.”
