a kiss after treating a wound (natasha & loki) @bcssbitchs​

“you know you don’t have to do that, i’ve sewn myself back up a time or two over the years.” natasha was nothing if not stubborn, but let loki take over anyway in stitching up the large gash on her forearm. it wasn’t too often that natasha came back from patrol with a bump, bruise or a cut, but she’d probably always refuse to involve a hospital unless she were to lose a limb or something. hell, even then... she could probably tie off and cauterize it just fine on her own if it came down to it. she was just... used to taking care of herself and being on her own. even when others wanted to help, it was rare that she just accepted it. once loki finished up, she turned towards him. “hey... thanks.” she said, leaning in and pecking his lips.

“We are the authors of our own stories. Sure, we can’t always control the plot, but we can decide who we want to be.” (lokitasha) @bcssbitchs​

even if nothing ever came of this mutual unspoken attraction that had developed between the two of them, natasha was pretty sure that loki would always fascinate her. even when they were enemies she’d known... there was more to him underneath the surface, yet... she’d had no idea back then, just how right she was. they were different, yet... very similar in so many ways. they were both different people than the ones they’d been years ago. they were both quiet and introspective and she found that she genuinely enjoyed his company and their conversations. she nodded as she mulled over what he said. “yeah, we can.” she agreed, after all, that’s exactly what she’d done. “and have you decided who you want to be?”

I’ll protect you, no matter what. (yelena & nat) @bcssbitchs​

“you know as well as i that i’m not really one to need protection.” though natasha appreciated the sentiment considering who it was from. her sister wasn’t exactly a sentimental person. if anything, between the two of them, natasha was the... slightly more sentimental one, even if it wasn’t outwardly obvious to anyone that really knew her, which... that list was a short one. yelena and barton. they were the only ones. thought she supposed rogers and loki... were getting there. when she let them in. “but hey, you know... same. obviously.” she shot her sister a small smirk, nudging her shoulder with hers. “where is this coming from though? you’re not one to get all sappy. that’s my job... considering i’ve gone all soft on you.”

❛  shut up and let me comfort you.  ❜ @bcssbitchs​

natasha adored her sister with everything in her. she’d missed her in those five years that she’d been one of the many that were taken in the blip and finding that she in fact was one of the ones taken had devastated her. in her last moments on vormir, yelena had been the one on the forefront of her mind. she hated that she couldn’t be there to welcome her back when her friends finished the mission, but yelena had always been stronger than her. she’d be alright, at least, that’s what she told herself. being here in this strange place that somehow had the power to bring natasha back to life so she could reunite with her sister... it was a blessing. “comfort me? who said i needed comfort?” natasha asked in amusement, bringing her sister in for a hug, “you’ve grown soft, little sister,” she teased, giving her a squeeze before letting go. “you staying the night again tonight? because if so, loki and i are going to have to start making you chip in on the rent every month.”

looking into your lover's eyes, then *gaze drops to lips* @bcssbitchs​

if someone had told natasha that one day, she’d be living in london with her sister and loki, she never would have believed it. however, here they were. before they’d gotten their memories back and yelena had moved herself in, natasha had started feeling... things about her roommate that she’d been fairly certain were mutual. then they remembered the past and... things were off. they weren’t enemies, but they also weren’t friends or... anything else. they got along fine and right now that was all that mattered. the look he gave her right now though, and the shift in his gaze didn’t escape her notice. “what? do i have something on my face?” she teased, her head tilting to the side slightly before reaching up and swiping the corners of her mouth with her index finger, “hmm.. nope. nothing.”

through your window (steve & nat) @bcssbitchs​

since returning to life in london, natasha tended to keep to herself.. more or less. at first it had just been her and loki, holed up in a nice, three bedroom flat in marylebone without memories of their past. then the memories started coming back and with them, yelena had basically moved in with thor making appearances now and then. she still kept to herself when she wasn’t running her studio, but she was keeping an eye out for her friends and parents when she did make detours beyond home and work. what she never would have suspected was one of them to come crawling through her bedroom window. she wasn’t alone in her flat since she’d just gotten back from getting a rare dinner with her roommates, but of course... it wasn’t as if her being alone and without backup would have been much of a problem. she was by her window with her gun drawn, clicking the safety off when she saw the intruder emerge, letting out an amused huff when she saw who it was and lowering her weapon. “dammit rogers...” she muttered, clicking the safety back on and stowing her weapon in the waistband of her jeans. “you know we have a front door. you could have just knocked.”

all was quiet. these types of nights didn’t come often and usually natasha was thankful for them when they did. it meant that people were safe, but it also meant her thoughts went wild and her guilt settled in, curling in her lap like an old friend. yes, she still felt it even after what she’d done, after saving the world. her ledger was still stained and always would be, no matter what she did, but it was no longer gushing red as loki had once put it. she had no idea why or how she was alive again, but that was one thing that she tried not to question. she was thankful for it if anything, even if it had meant she was alone. she wasn’t alone though. she knew some of her friends were also somehow here as well and apparently… so was her sister. she was on a rooftop when she saw the blonde, a small, rare smile making its’ way across her face as she silently lowered herself down on a wire several feet behind her sister, she hovered a cfoot or two off the ground, letting out a low whistle and waiting for the other to turn around before disconnecting herself from the wire she was hanging from and dropping into what yelena had called a ‘superhero pose’ and holding it for a moment before pushing herself up with a grin, “Привет сестренка,” she greeted, her smile dropping in a rare moment of letting her real emotions show, tears even forming in her eyes as she made her way towards her and pulled her into a tight hug. “it’s… so good to see you.”

❛ when did you stop loving me ? ❜

there were no words for just how much natasha was not in the mood for this. quentin beck had been leaving her alone for months and of course he’d chosen now to come around to annoy her again. now, when natasha was annoyed with her sister, dealing with a beaten best friend because of said sister, and an especially fussy infant who’s teething was starting a little earlier than most other babies his age. no, this really was not a good time to be rehashing the fucking past which was all her ex husband ever wanted to do. he never could just let shit go. that was his issue. “as i told you before, i never stopped caring about you. you don’t marry someone, intend on spending the rest of your life with them and just stop regardless of what happens,” she let out a huff, turning to face him after picking her to go oder up from the counter. “look, can we skip to the part where you call me a frigid bitch so i can go home? i really don’t have the patience to stroll down the memory lane of all the ways i fucked you up today.”
