fallaces enim sunt rerum species

[latrodectus]

Hello, community, I am bringing you Natasha "from the comics" Romanov, ex-Soviet spy and sometimes Avenger, a.k.a. extremely tired of time travel. Because she's from comics her life experiences include sleeping with a literal god, having a botched career as a fashion designer, punching a Nazi made out of bees, and actually being able to say the word mutant. If you are canon familiar, she's coming in from the end of the most recent Samnee/Waid Black Widow run, but before Secret Empire. If you aren't canon familiar, you probably know the gist anyway.

I am also Alex / lightfellows and I enjoy baseball, dead languages, and historical inaccuracy. I have a discord (lightfellows#4349) but I don't know how to really use it so plurk or PMs are likely the best way to reach me.

CLENCHES FIST... NAT!!! I'M EXCITED, WELCOME...

i'm froot and i play hei from darker than black! i take him after a 2-3 year stint in russia, so he'll be pleased there's someone recognizably from his era and from a place he knows about... bless her...

also wtf i love your icons, this art is amazing i'm drooling

[latrodectus]

Phil Noto!! He did the art on all my icons, I'm very blessed.

Natasha has also just been too Russia and it wasn't fun, but yes I am sure she'll be pleased for other people once she realizes everyone else is from like, fantasy fun land…

INSANELY LATE but heya! I’m Curt and play MCU Buck here. I’m super excited for Nat! Obviously he wouldn’t recognize her, but he’s got the arm, ssso she’ll probably have an idea who he is, even if he doesn’t look right either. I'mma add you on plurk if that’s cool!

also bless u for using noto for ur icons i also play 616 laura so i might be biased

[latrodectus]

Yeah, I'm 100% looking forward to AU hijinx and confusion. Natasha's probaly more used to alternative universes existing since comics are the worst but yeah, definitely not the same.

Aw man I love Laura and that I'm gonna go ahead and say a pro-Noto bias is a good one to have. Natasha's been truly blessed when it comes to good art though.

Bucky’s only concept of it is HG Wells, so he knows about time distortions and altering timelines but nothing really about proper alternate universes that aren't parallel womp womp... I guess MCU has been very lucky and significantly less confused in that sense HA...

Yeah, definitely blessed! Both Noto and Samnee 👌👌👌

The MCU: at least we don't have a Summers family

And no fill-in artists for either of those runs, the truly amazing part

gOD
me: wouldn’t it be great if mutants were in mcu
also me, with every new movie: please don’t fuck up mcu please don’t fuck up mcu please don’t fuck up mcu

........then they still made the maximoffs not-mutants in 616 bc of mcu so wth marvel!! stop making everything so confusing!!!

and seriously, that's the best part. a true rarity these days
