#this is probably my favorite line from nat #because she does #it’s her defense mechanism #this ‘nothing surprises me’ and ‘nothing fazes me’ #like an echo of fury saying she’s comfortable with everything #but SHE’S NOT #it’s a lie it’s her mask #she cares and she’s showing it right here #that she feels the need to defend herself from Steve instead of blowing him off #because she respects him #and she can’t control the fact that her defense mechanism keeps people she cares about at a distance #it’s how she survives and she likes it that way #until it turns on her like this and makes those around her distrust her #I’ll shut up now (via buckyforcap)
