HEADCANONS
she won ' t eat food or take a drink from anyone .
she ' s the black widow . lot ' s of people want her dead . to many for her to just be taking food or drinks from anyone . unless she cooks it , she won ' t eat it . and she won ' t eat or drink anything if it has been left alone .

there are no records of her anywhere .
there were very few records of her as a child . she was barely old enough for there to be any before she was sent to the red room . but when she got older , she made sure that none of it was left . she destroyed all traces of herself . and since then , no one has been able to document anything . a few suspicions of the black widow , but nothing concrete .

she has no sense of personal boundaries . or modesty .
natalia was taught that she could use her body as a weapon . that it was the greatest one she had . and by being taught how to use it , it took away almost all modesty she had . she doesn ' t care if someone sees her naked , or if she walks in on someone else naked . it doesn ' t really faze her .

she loves music .
she will absolutely deny it if you ask her about it , but she loves music . she keeps cassette tapes , discs , and several other forms of music . she listened to it whenever she can , as long as no one can see her .

she sings .
along with listening to music , she sings . not a lot , but she does . it is mostly old russian lullabies she remembers from when she was younger . if you ever find her singing , quietly leave . she will make sure you never tell anyone if she finds out you heard / saw her .

she has no sense of self preservation .
she will jump out of a building without a second thought . she just has absolutely no sense of self preservation . she has jumped off of bridges into dangerous waters , ran out into the middle of a busy road , walked into the middle of gunfire .

she really doesn't care about the safety of others either .
she doesn ' t care who gets caught in the crossfire . sometimes , twenty people could die while she was searching for only one person . she doesn ' t care . she will push others in the way of a bullet . while she has no sense of self preservation , she will push someone in the line of fire before herself .

she doesn ' t care about right or wrong .
there really isn ' t a right or wrong to her . she has almost no morals . there is nearly no thing she won ' t do if told . orders are orders . if they want her to kill someone ? sure . kidnap someone ? alright . torture ? of course . the line that she draws is extremely far away .

she has a very large weapons selection . and most of it is always on her .
she has her own personal arsenal . guns , knives , poisons , etc . and a lot of it she keeps on her body . she carries atleast three guns at all times , and numerous knives . she can often be found with a few poisons as well , and maybe a few explosives .

she can turn anything into a weapon .
not only does she carry a ridiculous amount of weapons with her , she can always turn some random object into a weapon if she needs to . she had harmed , and killed , people with things as random as a tennis ball , fork , her heels , or the leg of a chair . she even killed someone with her earring once .

she is very manipulative .
she can almost always get her way . she can manipulate almost anyone into doing anything . she has yet to meet a person she wasn ' t able to manipulate .

russian && languages
she still has a heavy russian accent . but , when undercover , she can sound american / french / whatever fits her disguise . she also knows multiple languages . russian is her mother tongue , and what she prefers to speak . when she gets angry , or yells at someone , she almost always switches to russian . or when her other emotions tend to run high .

she owns a few apartments
she owns several apartments in several different cities . one in odessa , one in moscow , one in new york , a few others . they ' re all kept off the book , and off hydra ' s radar . just in case .

the explosion on her earth
she was sent to sabotage some experiment , some machine . she didn ' t know what it was or what it does , she just knew what she was supposed to do with it . but it went horribly wrong . the machine exploded , with her right beside it . somehow , she survived . but when she woke up , she wasn ' t on her earth , her world anymore .

she hates being called natasha
she cannot stand being called natasha . she hated the name , almost more than anything .

most things were the same on her world , but not all
most people were relatively the same where she was from . except a few . she never knew alexei or melina . her relationship with yelena was quiet different . she wouldn ' t call the two sisters . but she wouldn ' t call anyone her family .

she thinks natasha was incredibly stupid .
don ' t even get her started on her look alike . seriously , how could the two even be alike slightly ? first of all , the dumbass would still be alive if she hadn ' t gone soft . and how the hell did she allow her face to be plastered literally / everywhere / . it makes natalia ' s job so much harder , with everyone knowing what natasha looks like . she really was stupid . natalia thought it would be easier on this new earth . she had been a ghost on hers , but here ? she literally did not exist . but nooo , natasha ' s dumbass had to go and be on the cover of vogue or whatever .

the red room
look , natalia sucks . she ' s a murderer . not a good person . but she has like , two morals . and one of those is that it is not ok to take children and turn them into killers . like , yeah . ' i killed people when i was younger , hell i murdered my own parents . but that ' s because i ' m fucked up , and was my own choice . you ' re taking little girls and turning them into a killer , and that is not ok . fuck you . ' during the four years after she left the red room and the kgb , she went back and destroyed all of them . made sure that there would never be another red room .

backstory & her world


BACKSTORY
natalia's parents always knew something was different about her. she didn't act like other children, even as a baby. as she got older, things only got worse. her parents noticed that some of the stray cats were going missing, as well as neighbors pets. they found a few dead in piles of trash, and they had their suspicions as to who had killed them.

one day, they went into her room to find her with a cat that was nearly dead, and a lighter. they watched in horror for a few moments as she tried lighting the cat on fire before taking the lighter away and the cat. the animal died a few moments later, and they threw it away. they discussed what they should do with their daughter, not sure what was wrong with her.

natalia heard them talking in the middle of the night when they thought that she was asleep. what they were saying made her angry. she found a thing of gasoline her father kept and poured it out in the hallway in front of her parents room. she dropped a match on it, and it caught on fire. she was able to get out of the house before it got to big, but her parents couldn't escape.

when people saw it and found her sitting out in the snow, they asked what happened. she started crying, and told them she woke up to the fire. no one knew she had been the one that set it.

she went to some orphanage for a few months, but she wasn't there for long. someone came to get her, and several other girls from the orphanage. she was taken to the red room.

while there, she made some of the instructors a bit uneasy. they had done it before, but they had never had someone like her. with the other girls, they had to train to kill. train them not to feel remorse. with her? all they had to do was tell her. they didn't have to do their usual brainwashing. she just simply killed, almost as if it was a second nature to her.

she excelled at the program. the instructors knew that she would be the one, long before even half of the girls were gone. finally, it got down to the last two. they were pitted against each other, and natalia killed the other girl without a second thought.

after she went through the graduation ceremony, they decided to test something out on her. their own version of the super soldier serum. it had went through testing, and they had modified it several times. finally, they thought they had it. they tested it on her, and it worked. for the most part. it wasn't as powerful as the original, but it did it's job.

it increased her physical abilities, as well as decreasing the rate at which she aged. she gained a great immune system. the only side affect seemed to be that she would occasionally have increased aggression when provoked. over time, the aggression decreased, but would return at times.

she continued to work for the kgb for nearly ten years before she left. the first thing she did after she left was destroy any and all records there ever were of her, making it like she had never existed. after that, she became an assassin for hire for a little while, doing her own thing.

she did her own thing for about four years before she met hydra. she joined them in nine teen eighty six .

in twenty seventeen, she was sent on a mission . a mission to tamper with some experiment , some machine . but it went wrong . horribly wrong . it exploded , with her standing right beside it . somehow , she survived . but when she woke up , she was no longer on ' her earth ' .

---------------------

HER WORLD
natalia wasn ' t originally from earth - 199999 . she doesn ' t really have a name for the earth she was from , other than just ' her earth ' . it was relatively similar to earth - 199999 . the avengers still existed , with some differences of course . like natalia isn ' t a member . yelena belova is , however . new york was completely destroyed in the battle in 2012 . files revealing hydra operated within shield were never released . project insight was never stopped . steve rogers and bucky barnes were taken into custody after the ' civil war ' . the red room is no longer .

---------------------------------------------------------

the winter soldier
natalia was close to the winter soldier , as close as she could be to someone . he was the first time she ever really . . . cared . again , as much as she could . she knew him from her time in the red room , and met him once again when she joined hydra . they were often paired together on harder missions , but hydra began to suspect the two were getting close . they stopped pairing them together , moved them to different bases . but , come on . even hydra couldn ' t keep the two best spy ' s away from each other . they continued to see each other . until captain america came around . and winter went after him . . . and then left . left hydra , left natalia .

bucky barnes
natalia hated him . more than she had ever hated anyone . he was the person that took winter away . she didn ' t care that they were technically the same person . she looked for him for a long time after he initially left . finally , she found him . she tried to talk to him . hell , she even offered to leave hydra to go with him . but he remembered her , how she was . she hadn ' t been brainwashed to do the things like he did . that was just who she was . and he told her no . that part of his life , he was done with it .

yelena belova
natalia and yelena knew each other from the red room . but they didn ' t have the relationship that they do on earth - 199999 . the red room pitted them against each other all the time . they had an . . . odd relationship . they couldn ' t stand each other , but they were as close to friends as anyone in the red room could be . once they had both graduated , they didn ' t see much of each other . they were occasionally sent on missions together . and on one , they ran into clint barton . natalia wanted to kill him . but yelena said no , that wasn ' t part of the mission . clint did the whole ' you can have a second chance ' thing . natalia tried to shoot him , yelena stopped her to let clint get away . of course it didn ' t work on natalia , but yelena . . . well , she defected . joined shield . became an avenger .

melina & alexei
she didn ' t know either of them . there was no mission in ohio . no ' family ' .

clint barton
as stated above , clint tried to convince both of them to join shield . natalia and yelena . natalia immediately tried to kill him . the two have a . . . interesting relationship . the two ran into each other several other times . each time , he always told her the offer was still standing . everytime , she tried to shoot him in the head .

personality


not many people know what natalia's personality is really like. she is great at faking. whatever situation she is in, she can tailor how she acts to fit it.

but who is she when she isn't faking? well, she is a snarky psychopath to start it off. she has no concern for other people. she doesn't care about their feelings, or their wellbeing. she can sorta tell the difference between right or wrong, she just doesn't care.

some people say she has no morals. she does. she is just morally evil. murder is something that is morally acceptable to her. torture, kidnapping, mostly anything that is considered morally evil is acceptable to her.

she has no regard for her safety, or the safety of others. she has no remorse for her actions. she could kill someone, and it not affect her. she lies, a lot. she will lie either because she wants something out of it, or just for her own amusement.

she is very manipulative. she knows how to play with peoples emotions, she knows how to make it seem likes she cares. and it is nearly impossible to tell when she is manipulating you.

basically, everything about her is toxic.
