Nat in the back of these panels fucking kills me

god this comic makes me ill. i feel like natasha and logan are so underrated when it comes to natasha's relationships. but also, look at her hair in the first page. it's short. that tells me this is before onslaught, and after she appears in miller's daredevil run. which means that this is about the time she's leader of the avengers. and yet she still carries around this guilt. she owes him. he saved her.

he... taught her.

god. i love this comic. i don't think i've said that enough. look at how happy she is. look at how proud logan looks. she may have been in the red room at the time, but she still took after his training. she still learned from him because he was real. he was one of the few things that was real...

god. within just the scope of this comic it's hard to understand the magnitude of what she just did. she lied to SHIELD. she jeopardized lives, jeopardized her position as the leader of avengers, felt the heavy, leading guilt knowing that she is sending agents -- people she might have known, cared about -- for logan. because logan saved her, and she will owe him forever. this is what i mean when i say natasha is loyal. she does not care, does not trust, but when she does, she is loyal to a fault. if she can help you, she will. even to her own detriment.

raised to be loyal to the motherland, and is now loyal to those she cares about. forever slaving over debts that she believes that she owes.

this comic just...

means a lot to me.

Natasha, why don’t “we” work? Why does everything come out wrong for us when both of us want it to come out right?
