Pairing: Natasha Romanoff X Fem! Shield Agent Reader

Category: fighting, love, romance, bickering, saving

Summary: You've been kidnapped by high up hydra/KGB agents, and when Natasha finds out, she immediately drops everything to come to your rescue. However, the person who kidnapped you, knew Nat from her KGB days, which made for an interesting situation.

Masterlist

Note: I'm so sorry if this sounds hella messy at points, I'm in a rlly bad flare - and Don't have the energy to try and figure out how to mitigate that 😭.

word count: 2020

You manage to slightly open your eyes, and your vision is so blurry that you can’t tell where the hell you are. But, you can feel fabric in your mouth, a wound there too, and feel your arms & legs are restricted by something. You still don’t understand what happened, one minute you were on your way to a—what you thought would be—your final hydra meeting, and the next, you’re getting a bag over your head, and knocked out by a smell that was inside of it.

You’re trying to regain your ability to see, when you hear someone walk into the room, and you try to focus on whoever they are.

“So… you’re the infamous hacker for shield, who’s also been trying to infiltrate hydra?” The man asks, while grabbing a brass knuckle off the stand. You stare at him, while motioning at the fabric over your mouth, and he smirks while taking it off you.

“Pretty sure you got the wrong person, I don’t know what the hell shield even is. Like—isn’t that a piece of metal?” You question, and he growls, while picking up an electric batton, “Don’t play dumb with me, I know you know who I am. Now, answer my damn question.” he spits, and he puts the batton near your stomach, “How about, no?” you chuckle, right before he punches the shit out of your face, “Wrong answer.” “Is there a right one?” you question, while spitting blood out of your mouth. “There is, yes, and we will get it out of you.” he smiles, right before using the batton on your stomach, and you can feel yourself growing faint, but ignore it.

*******

Natasha is working with Fury to get your location, but it’s taking fucking forever, and she’s starting to get antsy & frustrated, “How the hell is this taking so long?! It’s been 30 minutes since she called.” She groans, and Fury grabs her shoulders, “Kid, we will find her. She’s a trained agent, she’s prepared for situations like this. Her phone is off, which likely means it’s been destroyed, so we are working with the last location it had before going off.” he states softly, and Nat pouts, “This still could be going faster” “I agree, which is why, I want you suited up & ready for the millisecond that we zero on a location.” and that makes Nat look at him in shock, “Are you–?” she questions, and he grins while nodding, “Yes. However, you are the only one going. I can’t risk anyone else being exposed.” so you nod in agreement, and hug him, “I’ll bring her back, no matter what it takes.” “I know you will, you two are a few of our absolute best agents.”

Hearing that, leads Nat to smile, because it’s the first time she’s ever heard that in a non-red room or x capacity. Or hearing it come from Y/N. 

Once Nat is ready, she heads back into the main room, and Fury grabs her shoulder, “We have her general location. But—please don’t do anything rash. I know you’ll be fine, but we & you do not need to add an additional enemy.” Fury states, and Nat shakes her head, reluctantly, in agreement, “I’ll try, Director. No promises, especially if Y/N’s life is at stake.” she states, and they share a silent agreement, as she makes sure her gun is good to go, and heads out to the plane.

*******

You went out of consciousness when you got slashed against your arm, and come back to worse weapons on the side, a new facial slash, and blood on your waist. 

You’re dealing with gruesomely bad pain, but it’s nothing you haven’t experienced before. And—at least you’re sitting down, instead of being tied up by your arms. You begin looking around, for anyway or anything you might be able to use to escape, but the loss of blood is beginning to get to you. Which means you only have a few hours left to get out, and get to a medic.

********

Nat suits up, before descending down, and out of the plane, using a rope, and landing onto the building. She snuck up on one of the guys next to the door, and grabbed his shoulder, hit the barrel of her gun on his face, and slammed his face directly into the door.

She proceeded to sneak into the building, keeping her gun up, and watching every one of her angles. Until she reached another worker, and smirked before grabbing his arm, and slamming him into the wall, “Do you happen to know.. Where a certain prisoner is—that you’re keeping?” she asks, gently, and he scowls, “Why the hell would I answer a bitch?” he asks, and she rolls her eyes, “Your funeral,” right before tossing him over herself, and doing a backbend, before sliding on her leg & knee, to look at him. “I did warn you!” she chuckles, and then continues through the building, taking out guards as she comes upon them.

*****

The guy comes back in, only this time, he has a gun, and that makes you mildly concerned. “Still planning on staying silent, little girl?” he asks, while slowly, slicing a knife against your cheek, “I’ve told you—a million times—I do not know what you’re talking about.” you sneer, and he grins again, and points the gun at your head, “If that were truly the case, you wouldn’t have lasted this long. Civilians can’t handle endless torture—because they’re not trained for it, Agent.” he smirks, and turns off the safety, and you have to force yourself to keep composed, remember your training, and not reveal anything—yourself.

“You won’t do it. You would kill a civilian, but not a member of your own agency~” You taunt, and he laughs, “I would kill traitors,” he starts, before pointing the gun at your knee, “But you’re not that. You’re worse—a spy. An Agent, of Shield.” he drawls out, right before shooting off your knee cap.

You couldn’t help it, you had to scream from the pain that caused, the only bonus, is it doesn’t look—terrible—which means it can be fixed. You just may be out of commission for a while, if you ever get out of here.

“See.. dear? That may have caused exrcuciating pain, but you’re still fighting!” He smiles, and you snarl, “Nice.. try. But, you still won’t be able to get anything from me.” “I got everything I needed, from that.” he chuckles, and you snarl, “Sure,”

*******

Nat hears a faint scream, but she’s still too far from it to tell the exact area it came from. But, the further down she goes, the more & more guards she has to take care of, and it’s only fueling her anger & determination more.

She finally reaches the levels where the important people are at, and grabs one of the hydra agents, and forces him into a bathroom. “Shut the fuck up, and stop squirmming, I’m assuming you don’t know where the hostage rooms are?” She asks him, and he shakes his head, “I do! I usually handle them!” and that makes her smile, “Good, then take me to them. And make a single sound, I will kill you.” she threatens, and puts her knife against his throat, “Yo-you’re the black widow- a-aren’t y-you?” he stammers, and she grins, “Yes, yes I am.”

She uses the guy to get most of the way down, until she runs into heavily armed & heavily trained guards, she sees them get ready to shoot them both down, and tosses the guy to the side, “Stay there.” before breathing deep, smiling, and running on the wall, before using her arms to grab one of the dudes necks, and flipping him. While taking another's legs out from under them, and shooting another directly.

She hears more coming, and sighs with annoyance, before using her knife to stick one in the throat, and take out another with her gun. Once that’s done, she grabs her temporary hostage, and continues downstairs.

She reaches the room, after committing a blood bath in the hallway, and losing her temporary hostage

*******

Nat walks into the room, right as you're getting yourself out of the restraints, and you sigh, “Nat, when the fuck did you get here?” “Shortly after you called me?? I wasn't gonna leave you here!” She exclaims, and you groan, “Nat, I was working on” you mutter, “ getting out. I did not need help!” “Milyy (sweetie), you have a shot out knee cap, blood everywhere, and no color in your face. And I just killed a few guards to get to you.” she states plainly, while trying to help you get out of the restraints. "NAT?! Oh my fucking god” you mumble, and she looks at you while working on the restraints, “What!?” “Did Fury not remind you not to kill anyone?” you ask, while you finally get out of the restraints, “And—what If he did? They were in my way, when trying to reach you.” she explains, and before she can do anything, you cup her face with your hands. “I love you—but that's—no.” and you’ve never seen her barriers get drawn down so fast in your life,“You love me-?” she asks, only for the guy to walk in.

“I do—but not the time!” You exclaim, and grab the gun from her side holster, only to see her freeze, right as someone puts a gun—or something—against your neck.

“So~” He begins, while walking around us, and keeping his gun pointed at Nat, “Not only are you—a confirmed shield agent” he continues, while clicking his tongue at Nat, “But, you’re involved with the elusive Black Widow! I’ve been wondering how to find her!” You & Nat both look at each other with your eyes before looking back at him.

“If you’ve been looking for me, then take me. She’s useless to you.” Nat states, while still training her gun on him, “She infiltrated hydra, and brought an ex-Black Widow—which, I did know General Dreykov, and had seen you during your KGB days.” he starts, and you move your eyes toward her, confused, “But, no one expected you to switch sides, oh so easily, Natalia. And as such, your head has been wanted as payment. But..” he trails off, and points the gun back at her, “I think your little playtoy will suffice” he chuckles, and right as Nat gives you the go-ahead, he clicks his tongue, and has his man move away from you, “I don’t recommend whatever you’re about to do” and you & Nat ignore that.

You pull the man’s arm towards you, to throw him over, and Nat goes for the guy, when you fall to the ground, feeling a shock of electricity in your neck.

“I did warn you!” He yells, right as Nat takes him down, and you have to fight the pain to be able to grab the gun you put on the ground, and use it to shoot the other guy.

********

After you & Nat handle everything there, she helps you get to the rendevouse site, and helps remove whatever the fuck they put in your neck.

She’s bandaging you up, and you frown a little, “What was that about the—uh” you start, before groaning, as she’s stitching what she can, “The RGB? And… the name?” she asks, and you nod, while watching her stop for a moment to think. “The RGB was, and is, a Soviet group. I joined them shortly after graduating from the Red Room. And—Natalia.. That’s—my birth name. Full is Natalia Romanova” she explains, while getting back to stitching you up, and even though you’re in an insane amount of pain, you can’t help cupping her cheek, “I’mma keep learning shit about you, aren’t I?” you chuckle, and she smiles while nodding, “Yeah, a consequence of—dating a spy. And—I love you, too” she continues to smile, and you giggle harder, “Oh I’m not gonna live that down, am I?” “No, no you’re not. That was a shit way to say it, milyy (sweetie).” she states, and you both keep laughing until the plane comes to pick you up.

Actively working on this for my Nat lovers 😭

[singerwriter04]

What I notice in a lot of modern books I read (and DNF) is the lack of attention to small details.

Before smartphones and social media, authors were more attentive. That’s why their worlds and characters felt real, because they were watching the real world around them.

Authors—put your phone down. Sit still. Watch.

Watch the shadow of a bird sweep across a building as it flies past. The way a beam of light bends into perfect circles on the glass. The dried splatter of a drink on the floor.

And then write. Because the world is already writing poetry, you just have to listen.

i am going to write today. i am going to write today. i am going to write today. i am not going to nap all day. i will write. even if it’s just a sentence.

The Plan - Coming Home Series

Pairing: Larry Russell X Marian Brooks X Fem! Psych major daughter !Reader

Category: Angst, fluff, compromise, family

Summary: With the help of your brother, sister, and Aunt Gladys, the Duchess of Marlborough, you decide to confront Eugene about the information that Julius Astor gave you. Only for Eugene & you to come up with a plan, for while he's away.

Masterlist

Note: I'm so sorry it took forever for me to write. I got hit with a disastrous flare up, but I'm back now! And, am slowly realizing - I accidentally made this story a next generation version of Larian, with their own damn daughter haha.

word count: 881

It’s the next morning from when you learned of Eugene’s plan, from Julius Astor, and you’re still reeling over it, when your Aunt, the Duchess of Marlborough, walks in with your brother & sister, Marshall & Cora.

“Dear, have you seen the papers?” Gladys asks, and you look at her in confusion, “Auntie, what do you mean?” you ask, and she sighs as she sits down, “Everyone is speculating that Mr. Julius Astor is courting you, after the whole carriage situation” Gladys explains, and you get handed a pillow—by Cora—to scream into.

After you finish screaming, you sigh, “That wasn’t how it was meant–” You start, and Marshall cuts you off, “That’s not how the gossip blogs see it” before Cora adds, “They see it as two of the highest of society, having an intimate moment, outside of the Met.” and you pout, “Eugene is gonna end up seeing that, isn’t he?! I—I have to—” “He’s leaving in the next few hours, I already called a carriage, go get my future brother-in-law, sister” Marshall states, and you smile, “And, would you like me to join you, as a chaperone?” Gladys asks, and you think, before nodding to say yes, “Yes, thank you Auntie, that would hopefully pipe down the gossip trains” “Alright then, get dressed, we have a man to stop!” Gladys chuckles, and you laugh, as you get up, and your ladies maid comes in to help you get dressed.

Once you get dressed, you head downstairs, and hug your parents, Larry & Marian, before heading out to the carriage, and getting in with Gladys.

“Larry has told me a tad, but—I want to know from you. What is the situation with Mr. Kirkland?” she asks, and you look up at her, while biting your lip slightly, “We’ve had moments—during childhood & high school. But—it never panned out to anything, because we had different ambitions, and I always assumed.. He’d find someone—better” you begin, and Gladys touches your hand, softly. “Well, dear he hasn’t, clearly. And—I don’t think that Julius Astor would be well suited for you. He’s very advantageous, as seen by him courting you immediately upon you reentering society.” “That—that is a fair point, Auntie. Thank you” you smile, and she grins, “Always, dear, your parents were there for me, so I’ll be there for you.” 

Once you arrive at Dr. Kirkland & Mrs. Kirkland's house, you walk in, right as Eugene is headed out the door.

"Hey," you speak softly, and he turns towards you, and can't help instinctively grabbing your hand. "Did you come here.. alone?" he questions, and you shake your head, "my aunt, Gladys, Duchess of Marlborough, is in the carriage.." you mutter, and he grins while nodding, and pulls you inside the house.

"Eugene, I know" You begin, and he becomes startled, "Who told-" "were you ever going to tell me?" you interrupt him, and he sits down in a chair in the foyer. "Doll, I just found out last night, after the Met. I didn't have time-" he starts, before taking a deep breath, "I was planning on sending a letter, with a footman, to you. Because we didn't have time to stop by your house." he finishes, and you bite your lip while thinking, and he grabs your hand, "What is it? You wouldn't normally freak out like this." and you look at him softly, "Julius Astor made a scene right before I got into the carriage, and I only helped it- because I thought he.. was you. And now.. all of New York society thinks he's courting me." "So he's the one who told you.." Eugene breathes, "Yes.." "Let him." and you look at him with confusion, "What?" "Then let him, doll. Let him court you. Let him BELIEVE he's courting you, that he's getting the prize of New York. And then we set the record straight when I come back.” he states, and you pause, while thinking about it, “Okay, I’ll do that. But, I will be filling my dance card with others in the process.” you tease, and he smiles, “I’d expect nothing less, doll.

You chuckle as you hear Peggy come down the steps, “Eugene, is that Y/N I hear?” She asks, as she gets down to us, “Yes, she came to bid farewell to me” Eugene answers, and you blush, “I did, I also came to clear some—stuff up” you mutter, and Peggy looks between the two of you, “The stuff with Mr. Julius Astor, I’m presuming?” she asks, and you both look at each other, while nodding, “...Yeah..” you mumble, and she smiles while chuckling, “I thought so, Eugene, do this the way we raised you” she states, and Eugene looks offended, “What do you mean by that, mama?” “You know what I mean.” and you can’t help giggling.

“I’ll walk her out, since we both have to leave,” Eugene states, and takes your hand as the two of you walk back outside, and he walks you over to your carriage, and you both share a look, “I will come back to you” “I have no doubt about that, and I’ll make sure Julius doesn’t propose before you get back.” you smile, and he does too, before kissing your hand, and helping you into the carriage.

Summary: You get called back in to do a undercover mission you thought was resolved, and have to explain to Nat & Clint that Hydra is still a thing. While in the process, explaining what happened. Only for shit to go to hell.

Masterlist

word count: 1317

“What the hell happened?” You question, as you, Natasha, Maria Hill, and Agent Coulson all go into a room together. “We’re still trying to figure that portion out. But, as of right now, you’re going back undercover, for at least a week.” Coulson explains, and you shake your head in disbelief, “That entire mission—was supposed to be over—2 years ago. Which was when I—at least I thought—took out the fucking guy.” “You technically did, which is why Agent Romanoff & Agent Barton will be joining you undercover. But—they won’t be staying.” Hill explains, and it just makes you even more confused, “Got it. Where do we need to go?” Nat asks, and you swivel your head over to her, “You are literally injured. What the fuck do you think—” you start, and Hill waves it off, “Not the time, you two. Agent Y/N, you need to be out of here, with them, in the next few hours. Your apartment is already set up.” Hill states, before leaving, and Nat grabs your arm, before you & her look at Coulson, “Thank you, sir” and leave to your dorm room.

Nat pauses for a second, before stating, “I’m a Black Widow. I was trained to take every fucking ounce of pain possible, ignore it, and get the job done. So, no, a tiny wound in my gut is not gonna stop me from joining this mission with you.” She states, and you bite your lip while walking around, sighing, “Are you sure? Are you 100% sure?” you question, with your hands on your hips, and Nat walks over, and holds your shoulders, “I’m sure. You, do not need to worry.” and you give her a smile while nodding, and kiss her hard.

*******

The three of you sneak into your apartment, and you sigh as you lean against the counter in the kitchen. “This place is surprisingly spacious, for a studio” Nat points out, while she & Clint check out the space for anything that could be concerning, “Yeah, It does massively work though. Since it seems like something my cover would own” you chuckle, and you can hear Nat’s grin. “You two do know we’re here undercover, right?” Clint asks while laughing, and you join in, while Nat stares at him, "Okay—ya know what" Natasha says annoyed "Babe.." you mutter, and Clint chuckles, "I still cannot believe you two got together." "What do you mean?" You ask, "Well, you're one of shields best communications agents & she's a whole ass fucking black widow." you think, and then nod, "fair point—" "what the hell does that mean?" "That you're a literal assassin babe, dating a data analysis agent" you chuckle, and she pouts. 

“Still—what the hell were you undercover for?” She asks, and you bite your lip, “It’s classified, so I honestly don’t know exactly how much I can say. All I know is, I was a hacker—in with a group of highly influential—but dangerous—men. And my mission.. Was to kill the leader” you explain, and they both look even more confused, “That’s all that I can legally say. A lot of fucked up shit happened in between that.. but I did get confirmation that he was the one killed.” you explain, and Nat nods, “Well—either way—we’re here” which makes you blush even harder.

You get another text, and it includes a location, so the three of you head there, while you’re the only one who walks into the location. “Shit, Y/N, where the fuck have YOU been?!” Jack Rollins asks, and you chuckle, “Had to go into hiding. But, I finally can come out now. Was it you who texted me?” you question, while looking around a little. “Nah, nah, Hauer called the meeting, I guess he got some extra Shield knowledge that he feels the head would like.” he shrugs, and you scoff in confusion, “Are you serious?! Shit..” you mutter, and he chuckles while nodding, “Yeah, I don’t fucking know how he did it either!” 

*******

Nat is watching & listening to all of this, with her sniper trained, and is so confused. It’s clear the guys are part of shield, but nothing about this seems right. “We got rid of Hydra? Didn’t we? Is this a new Russian group?” She asks Clint, and he shrugs, “I thought we did, I don’t fucking know” she keeps watching and listening to the exchange, when the Hauer guy walks in, “One of our guys got in, and we luckily have a hacker friend of sorts who’s working on getting us more intel” he explains, and Nat gets even more worried.

“Who the hell did you manage to get in there?” You ask, and Hauer chuckles, “Y/N, you haven’t been here for two years. So, you’re not entitled to that information. Just do what I say, when I say it” he states, and you roll your eyes, “Fine, alright, then can I go now?” you ask, annoyed, and he smiles, “Yes. Hail Hydra” he smirks, and you fake smile as you respond, “Hail Hydra.”

********

Once you get back to the apartment, it’s clear that both Nat & Clint are highly confused, and you understand why. “So the classified mission—was to infiltrate HYDRA?!” Nat scoffs, and you sigh, “Yes, because they needed someone.. And all the best people weren’t available. That was my first & last undercover mission. Because I hated it so damn much!” you explain, and Clint clicks his tongue before asking, “I thought we got rid of Hydra, so when the hell did they come back?” and that makes you throw your head back, “They never left. My mission has been to see which shield agents are playing double-agents, and try to figure out who the hell is at the top.” you start, and look down while trying to say the next part, “Malýshka (baby), what else?” Nat asks, while walking over to you, and holding your hand, “I was about to be found out—two years ago—so.. I had to assassinate one of the people near the top.. Which—that did help somewhat.. But it barely dismantled them. So, we thought I wouldn’t be able to go back in. Until now..” you explain, while muttering, and Nat pulls your chin up to face her, “Considering they barely suspect you, besides the Hauer guy, that means you did really fucking good” “I hope so, because I am only here to figure out why the hell they contacted me again..” you mutter and sigh into her shoulder, and she frowns while looking at Clint.

*******

A few days later, Nat gets a call to find stolen Stark Industries Weapons, and sighs while looking at herself in the mirror in the bathroom. Once she manages to get out of the bathroom, she walks over to Y/N, “Malýshka (baby), I have to go on a mission.. Stark Industries weapons were stolen, and I was assigned to go retrieve them” She explains, and you nod, “I understand Nat, I’ll be fine. You go do whatever is necessary” you reassure her, and kiss her hard, “But, please be safe” you add, and she smiles. “I’m assuming you know?” Clint says as he walks in, and you chuckle, “I do, do you have to go too?” you ask, and he nods, “Fury called me back in, apparently you’re doing that good right now” Clint teased, and you & Nat laugh.

*******

A few days later, Nat is heading back to base, when she gets a call—while leaving the plane—and it’s on her drop phone, “Hello?” “Asta, I’ve been kidnapped by someone. I can’t tell—if they’re hydra” you start, in between coughs, “But, they got me as I—headed into a hydra meeting. I don’t know what the fuck happened,” you continue, before coughing, and hearing someone start to walk in, quickly add, “I need help, I don’t think—” before Nat hears the phone call end, and she freezes, and runs to where Fury is.

Drill Time - The Mission Series

Pairing: Natasha Romanoff X Fem! Shield Agent Reader

Category: Pain, Fluff, romance, flirting, training

Summary: Your relationship with Nat is progressing, and as such, the two of you get sent on a mission to protect & escort a nuclear scientist, when it goes drastically wrong.

Masterlist

word count: 966

A few days after all the built up fire & tension finally spilled out of the two of you, you’re now learning how to better take someone down, from your now girlfriend, Natasha Romanoff. While in the process, trying to not get distracted by how hot she is.

“Lyubimiy (love), I need us to focus. I don’t want you to get kidnapped, or worse!” Nat pleads, while handing you a knife, “I’m not great at this whole fighting shit, but I do know how to keep myself from being kidnapped, Nat!” you begin, before looking to the side and smirking, “Which reminds me—” you draw out before taking & using the knife, to flip her onto her back, by grabbing it & using the momentum to pull yourself over her. “Nice one, did me or Fury teach you that?” she chuckles, and you laugh, “You, actually, you’re my best teacher~” “I thought so,” she mutters, before kissing you deeply and flipping you over onto your back.

In the midst of the passion, you bite your lip before mentioning, “We also uh—have a new mission. We leave tonight to protect a Nuclear scientist.” “Well—Nuclear scientists are—fun. Plus, who knows, it may be one hell of a ride” she smirks, while biting your lip a little, knowing you both don’t have time to do much more than mess around right now.

It takes a few minutes, but the two of you finally head to the main room, to figure out what the hell this mission exactly entails.

“Agent Romanoff, and Agent Y/N, you both will be tasked with escorting & protecting a Nuclear scientist, who is currently in Iran.” Maria Hill states, and you nod before asking, “Where are we transporting him to, exactly?” “A secure facility in Odessa, Ukraine. It should be a fairly easy & simplistic mission.” Hill explains, and you & Nat look at each other while nodding, “Alright, we’ll go get ready.” “You’re leaving in 20!” Hill adds, as the two of you walk to the changing room, and you smile as you start changing into a comfortable—but professional—outfit. 

“This outfit doesn’t look—too out there—right?” You ask, while Nat is changing into her black widow outfit, “I promise you, it doesn’t. And—I’m assuming you’re doing the talking?” she asks, and you smile, “You bet your ass. Considering, we have to get the dude into a car, and then go to the rendezvous point until Shield can come get us.” which makes her smile while looking at you from the side, “Sounds like a plan,”

********

Once you two reach the office of the Nuclear scientist, Nat scans the corners outside, before knocking on the door. “Sir, this is Agent Y/N & Agent Romanoff, we’re here to transfer & keep you safe.” You explain from outside the door, and see a smiling guy as the door opens. “Finally. Was wondering when Shield was sending someone.” he continues to smile, and walk the way we came in. And we just—stare at each other in confusion before following him out.

“Sir… why are you so non-chalant about all of this?” You ask as Nat is driving the car, and it’s a few minutes from Ukraine, “Oh, working with shield, and being a highly intelligent scientist. Tends to put a gruesome target on your back!” he exclaims, and you smile and nod, while moving your eyes towards Nat in a questioning manner. “Well, I hope this is one of the last times you’ll have to deal with all of this.” you mutter, and he laughs, “It won’t be, not for a long while.” “Why do you say—” you start, very confused, right as the car flips over from someone hitting it with fucking something. And your first movement, after dealing with the pain of being in a flipped car, is to check on the scientist, “Hey are you still—” you say, and see Nat pulling him out of the car, right as she takes a bullet to the stomach. And suddenly—you lose all sense—as you forcefully crawl out of the car, and start shooting at the guy who just shot Nat.

Once you get over to the other side of the car, still disorientated, and checking Nat’s wound, you see it. The bullet—went through Nat, and into the scientist. And you can’t help crashing down, onto the ground. “What…the hell.. Just happened..” you mutter, and Nat bites her lip, “I am not entirely fucking sure..”

After getting picked up by the extraction team, you’re thinking, and look over at Nat, before holding her hand gently. “We—should probably think of codenames for each other… so we never compromise each other—or shield.” You explain, and she shakes her head in agreement, “Yours can be Lina, and what should mine be?” she asks, and you think for a moment, before smiling, “Asta? It does mean assassin, or beautiful god.” you smirk, and she chuckles while grinning, “I love it, it sounds—like me” and that makes you bite your lip while blushing HARD. “I’m glad you do, and—no one will be able to track us with that!” you exclaim, and kiss her hard before the plane lands. In the midst of that, you look at her wound, and frown, “You sure you’re doing okay with that?” “It did go right through, so it’s just an annoying wound now, Y/N” she chuckles, and you smile while nodding.

Right as it lands, you see a text message on your phone that’s connected to your undercover phone, and freeze a little.

“Fuck..” and look up to see Maria Hill & Agent Coulson, “Yeah, we know..” which earns a confused expression from Nat, “You’re gonna get to hang out here for a few days!” you exclaim, and her mouth drops in confusion, “What?” “I—have to go back undercover.” you breathe out while explaining.

Me with my nat fic rn

Sometimes having a writing slump isn’t the worst thing in the world, because you know that when you pull yourself out of there, you will write like everything holy possessed you.

“why do you keep hurting this character?” because if i don’t suffer then someone has to. and unfortunately for him, he has a backstory

how non-writers think writing works: creating a detailed outline and plan, writing each section carefully and weaving in all the different story threads like a master creator, expertly creating a masterpiece with care and precision

how writing actually works: daydreaming that one scene, creating a half-formed plot in a daze all around it, swearing at characters that don't magic themselves into existence, becoming absolutely obsessed with the story for a solid week, it becomes your entire life, you sit down open a blank word document and write approximately two and a half chapters, lose interest, daydream an entirely new idea for a new story, rinse and repeat
