Y’all I cannot wait for y’all to read the winter soldier to Civil war era of Alina because her relationship with the avengers is so much deeper than it appears especially with Tony Steve and Natasha.
Tony is this mirror reflection of herself. They share the same recklessness and willpower to do what they believe needs to be done. Ultimately it’s their similarities that lead them to the dysfunctional version you all have known. I can’t wait for y’all to see how fun and loving they used to be. Tbh Tony is like a father to her.
Then there is Steve and Alina who are very much older brother and little sister bond. Steve is the first avenger to meet Alina, from the moment he lays sight in her he makes it his mission to save her. Being around him reminds her she isn’t always doomed, she can be saved. Being around her makes him feel like life shouldn’t have ended with him in the ice.
Now, one of my PERSONAL favorite relationships I ever wrote, Alina and Natasha. These two are mother and daughter if I EVER WROTE that relationship because the way in which they love and fight with each other is too perfect for comfort. The second avenger to meet her yet the only one who had lived through the same hell made Natasha the only sense of safety she felt in another adult. Alina gives Natasha the sense of what having a daughter is like, a feeling she never believed she know.
Personally I feel Tony and Natasha however are the ones out of every adult she’s come across so far, even the avengers, that love her to their doom. Do with that what you will.
