You lie and kill in the service of liars and killers....

More thoughts brought by all the rewatching I did in recent months: I have a headcanon re: Natasha in Civil War which I haven't found anywhere else, either in meta or in fanfiction. It's more than possible I missed something - in a megafandom like the MCU, people post all the time, after all - so if you know a story or an essay using this theory as well, pray tell. (And link!)

Also, obvious disclaimer: I'm not saying this is the only possible interpretation of Natasha's actions at a key point, just that it's the one which makes the most sense to me. ( Cut for Civil War spoilers and Black Widow style ruthlessness. )

Thoughts? Links?

Book Meme, day 26

26. Should have sold more copies.

“Tiny Pieces of Skull” by Roz Kaveney, that gorgeous, witty, sharp and deeply humane novel which I reviewed here.
