I am ridiculously invested in Clint and Natasha winning the [livejournal.com profile] het_reccers shipping cage match.

I want them to win so fucking much, you guys.

OCTOBER 30TH IS THE LAST DAY TO VOTE FOR CLINT/NATASHA.

Look, I don't even have anything new to say about Clint/Natasha (I figure if you're reading my journal, you already know), and I do not have time this evening to write kinky porn in an attempt to coax people to vote but what I am going to do is talk about Natasha Alianova Romanoff. (I read The Name of the Rose today and it ripped my heart out of my chest. I will post more coherently about that comic later.)

Here is something that I absolutely love about Natasha that I've noticed from the brief selection of comics reading: she influences the woman around her in positive ways - she has a habit of saving lost girls. I love how a pivotal part of The Things They Say About Her

involves an abused girl Natasha rescued rescuing her (with an assist by another Black Widow)

.
I love that in The Name Of The Rose (besides all the other fabulously feminist parts and this fantastic bit, the intro story is

about Natasha rescuing a girl-weapon like she used to be and that Natasha set up a date with her BF in part so that she could threaten an abusive husband.



Natasha has positive relationships with her ex-boyfriend's wife!

I love that Natasha lives every week like it's shark week.

Natasha made the Russian ballet... AND the Russian Olympic Gymnastics team.

While we're flailing about the Black Widow....I have to wait two more days before I can splurge and buy this. Maybe you don't ;)

Ooooh, awesome poster!

Sadly, though, I have pretty much regretted every fandom purchese (that wasn't the media itself) that I've ever made, so... I put a ban on myself with regards to buying fandom-specific things.

I hope you enjoy that poster greatly, thought!
