A sensitive topic, really well handled. I love tvlop's writing in general.
On the subject of Russian spies, I watched the first episode of The Americans: a show about Russian sleeper agents playing an average family in the US during the 80s. The pilot was quite interesting. This series could hit a number of my interests so I'm curious where it will go. (Fun fact: my mom re-married a Polish guy in 1980, lots of travelling to-and-fro across the iron curtain ensued, and one time my mom told me (I could never fact check but I believed it at the time) that each of them was approached by the secret service of their (/our) respective home country whether they wouldn't want to do a little light spying on their travels. Nothing remotely like the protagonists of this show, of course... more on the level of Stasi-like snitching, I assume. (They didn't do it.)

"Clint's one of your closest friends," her counsellor says. "It's okay to be worried about his feelings changing."After Clint brought Natasha into SHIELD, they had sex. Three years later, she deals with the fallout.
"But they shouldn't," Natasha says, on the heels of that. "Because –" the idea gets muddled up in words, for a long few moments, and Elle patiently outwaits her confusion. "Well, he's my friend, not-- I didn't – it wasn't on purpose."
