Fics like The Stars Are Cold and Distant (but also Soft and Aching)

Natasha gave Carter a smile she didn’t feel. “No problem,” she said. She sipped the coffee — black, no sugar — and didn’t react as the bitter taste flooded her mouth, sadly complementing what was already there, rather than overwhelming it. “You really shouldn’t have.” Carter’s smile was equally fake. “It seemed the least I could do. Even if I’m perfectly capable of taking care of myself.” “That was what I was afraid of,” left Natasha’s mouth before she could think twice. OR: A story that starts a little time after the Captain Carter-verse version of the Avengers movie and goes through exactly how Peggy got close enough to Natasha to know about her family. And maybe a little closer still.
