Avengers movieverse; Black Widow; No one is ever sure if she is an angel, or a devil. Sometimes, not even she can tell.
Slight references to Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier. My beta hasn’t seen it yet and she didn’t quite call them spoilers, but figured I’d float a warning just in case.
She had been trained—manipulated—until she didn’t know which way was up and which was down. Joining SHIELD hadn’t necessarily meant she knew the right way to turn, but at least she had the knowledge that there were certain people that could back her up.
Still. She had no idea some days which side she was on. SHEILD claimed to be on the side of all that was right and good, but some of the things they asked her to do… Well she’d never shied from doing what had to be done.
She knew she had red in her ledger and she wanted to make amends for some of it. After Loki, after Hydra, she wasn’t sure all of it was hers to redeem. As she sat before the Senate committee, her hands folded calmly in front of her; she played the angel. It was what they all wanted and expected to see. But she allowed a bit of the devil to peek out, just enough to scare them.
She might not know whether she was angel or devil, but she could still get the job done.
