    Summary

    Natasha Romanov is forced to face her hard past in wake of Wanda's magic bringing it up. Wanda is trying to cope with the loss of her brother and trying to manage her new life with the Avengers.

    The two (eventually) overcome their differences and learn that they can be good for one another. It takes a while, sure, but maybe they could be friends.

    Or more. They're not sure.

    They have a lot more to deal with when Civil War breaks out in the Avengers and they end up on opposite sides.
    Takes place after Age of Ultron, and later during Civil War. Also makes significant changes to the plot of Black Widow. It's basically the story of Civil War and Black Widow, but altered to fit a Natasha/Wanda storyline. Plus a bunch more changes I added.
    Enjoy!

    title is from 'historians' by lucy dacus. awesome song, 10/10.

    Summary

    With her jaw clenched, Natasha searched for her other necessary contact for everything to work perfectly. "Come on, little witch," she whispered, her voice almost a breath. "I know you can feel me," she thought, putting all her energy into that connection.

    The answer was weak. A wave, almost a sigh in her mind. "Natasha?"

    Wanda shook in her cell, a wave of hope filling her being, feeling her energy move, her powers reactivate.
    Relief hit Natasha hard, almost leaving her breathless. "It's me, you're not alone. I'm coming for you."

    Or: Before escaping to Norway, Natasha seeks out Wanda to free her and suggest they run away together. Hunted by national and international organizations, they must face the unknown while discovering what it means to trust and rely on each other.

    Summary

    Natasha Romanoff's life was one long, continuous traumatic experience. She learned early on that trusting anyone or anything only led to pain.

    As fate would have it, she crossed paths with an archer in a Belgrade alley, and it changed everything.

    He offered her a way out. A second chance. Freedom.

    If only she can trust that it's real.

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

    Clint Barton wasn't planning on bringing home a traumatized assassin the way other people would adopt a cat. It just kinda happened that way.

    He is in no way qualified for this. She needs professional help, not some circus brat with a bow.

    Trust is hard.

    But maybe he can teach her how, the way someone once did for him.

    Summary

    The collector isn't causing chaos. Belos is defeated. The portal door is wide open. But now what? There's still so much to fix, so many relationships left in pieces, so many wounds still unhealed, but there are also so many happy moments left to experience. There are groms left to attend, and flyer derby games left to win. There are new friends to make and old ones to grow up with is. Do they finally have their happy ending? Or is a happy ending just hope of a better future?

    Just a post canon fic about the hexside squad.
