Captain America & Bucky #624
"excellent. that’s exactly what i need after today.” the words are dry. his old friend won’t let those sorts of good times happen again.
"—why’d he send you, of all people?"
hm. interesting. natasha knows nick fury is a difficult man to get along with : she's had her fair share of moments being angry and frustrated with the man herself, but when nick asked her to retrieve howard, personally, she'd expected a friendship less ... strained.
a debt owed to the person who saved your life is one you can't easily pay off or forget, so either howard believes that debt to have been repaid or unimportant in the grand scheme of whatever these two are fighting about.
natasha's never been easily impressed, and howard's comment gives her pause for a second as she raises an eyebrow slowly, voice flat and bland.
❛ i'm sorry. did you have someone else in mind? because i have much better things to do myself than deliver an ancient package you know. ❜

❛ that’s just… mean. i even took a shower before i came here !!! it was a quick one, though. maybe i didn’t get to use conditioner. or the soap that makes me smell like dandelions. ❜
❛ i'd ask for your definition of a shower, but i'm really not interested in knowing, despite the smell. what are you doing here, deadpool? ❜

❝ darling, you look awful.
i’d heard you’d had quite a nasty fall some weeks back. do you avengers never tire of falling from the sky? perhaps it would be a grand idea for we x-men to begin a tallying system for it. ❞
❛ maybe you x-men should focus less on how the AVENGERS look like, and more on the problems at hand. which , i'm sure you all have a lot of. no offense meant. besides , i'm less of an avengers these days , and more of a free-lancing agent. ❜

there was only one man who fit that bill— still, he’s hesitant. ”and here he promised me he’d always come himself. fine. lead the way.”
❛ he's a very busy man, but he knew you'd understand. besides, you two will have your long-awaited reunion soon enough. you can crack a bottle and talk about all the good times you two have had then, i'm sure.❜

“ oh, i’ve answered far too many phones in my time in past ‘jobs’. i’m practically the pro of sounding like a give a damn by now. ”
❛ it's appalling they kept you as a phone girl all those years peggy. i wish i could have been there to see their faces when you proved yourself worth TEN of them. ❜

’ i’m surprised to see you here, given you’re no longer an employee of stark industries. which means this is s.h.i.e.l.d. business. ‘
❛ astute as always. stark made the right call putting you in charge. and yes, it's s.h.i.e.l.d. business. business you're qualified to know this time around. ❜
THAT FEAR. Bite it down, leave it be. Your nightmares & greatest enemies strive off that vulnerable point. Let it show & you’ll make history books for all the wrong reasons.

Natasha’s deeply rooted compassion for battered women is probably at the top of my list of reasons I admire this character so damn much. I really, really appreciate writers that continue to highlight this.
