It was snowing in New York. Despite the weather, the city never slept. Hustle and bustle filled the still-crowded streets as citizens went about their usual habits, long-time residents more than used to the Big Apple's idiosyncrasies. Buildings were lit up like star-filled towers, and one in particular was still buzzing busily, even at such a late hour.

On the fortieth floor, two individuals occupied a fairly nondescript conference room, waiting for a third. The man, tall and dark-skinned sported a long black coat and a black eyepatch, and was slowly pacing back and forth. The woman, seated with dangerous nonchalance, was idly smoking a mint-scented cigarette, the smoke drifting around scarlet curls that cascaded around a pale, sharply aristocratic face. Cat-green eyes flicked now and again to the tall man, and it might have been a trick of the fluorescent light, but her upper lip may have lightly lifted in an expression of exasperated derision once or twice.

If so, it was irrelevant, as words had been exchanged, opinions noted (and just as quickly discarded), and decisions made. The time for talk was over. Now was the time for actions. And assignments.

And just possibly, the time to save the world.

Again.

Directory Fury glanced at the silent clock on the wall, then huffed a frustrated sigh.

The woman, Agent Romanoff, gave a light scoff, stubbing out her smoke on the table's perfect surface. Fury shot her a glare. Which she shrugged off, saying in a Russian-accented voice, "It would appear, Director, that your dog is incapable of telling time."

Fury's glare devolved into a glower. "He'll be here. Barnes is the best tracker there is."

"So you keep insisting."

The long black coat whispered as it fell still when he did. "Can it, Romanoff. You know what's at stake here. We're going to have to work together if we all want to survive."

She waved an elegant hand, crossing arms over her chest in marked defiance.

Not missing her silent indignance, Fury lifted a single eyebrow. "Mind your fangs, Romanoff. I don't want to have to put either of you into Time Out."

CHARACTER NAME: Natasha (Natalia Alianova) Romanoff
CHARACTER SERIES: Marvel Cinematic Universe

[OOC]

Backtagging: Forever and always, please.
Threadhopping: Let me know beforehand, please.
Fourthwalling: Not really a fan.
Offensive subjects): I'm pretty chill with most things, and incorporate triggery/dark stuff into rp, so there aren't many things I find offensive or problematic.
Other: Due to RL and the job and other things, I can be somewhat slow to respond on certain days, and other days I can do tags pretty quickly. I try to at least hit tags at least once a day, but I will backtag into forever, so please don't think I've dropped anything if I don't immediately get tags back! :)

[IC]

Hugging this character: If she knows you, sure. If not, be prepared for retaliation.
Kissing this character: See above, with more stress on the "retaliation".
Flirting with this character: Always and forever. She will absolutely flirt back.
Fighting with this character: Let's rumble! Natasha has extensive assassin training/skills, and is an acrobat, as well. See this for more detailed information.
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): Absolutely possible. She's a human, and has been canonly injured/shot/ect.
Killing this character: Also possible, but let's discuss first.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Sure, but be aware that Natasha has suffered behavioral conditioning and non-consensual medical procedures, as well as lots of dark trauma, which could potentially be uncovered during such. Drop me a note and we'll discuss what a telepath might find!

Warnings: Natasha's somewhat of a troll, so be prepared for lots of snark, salt, and sass. :)
