Before we continue, is this a personal moral failing or a mental illness? I need to know whether I should treat you like an evil monster or a helpless child when I unperson you.

What's your take on Yelena's relationship with intimacy when it comes to Kate?

So I do not think Yelena is asexual or aromantic. Fight in the replies if you want w/e comic canon is 3 idiots in a trench coat and I think half of y'all yelling that would hate comic Yelena. I kind of love the concept of unlabeled Yelena who's only ever really wanted to be with Kate, or just simply Yelena as queer.

I do think she was subject to 2 decades of sexual trauma and nonconsensual physical contact (punishment at minimum) and physical intimacy even nonsexual is VERY hard for Yelena to tolerate even though she's touch starved and desperate for comforting physical affection. At first even Kate holding her hand is too overwhelming, because Kate is not one of Yelena's "safe people" (I can expand on that too). Yelena also has a very complicated relationship to her body and her body image, and that makes sex much more complicated. Yelena does not like her body. Yelena will never like her body or achieve body neutrality, and that's something that I think it takes Kate time to realize? No amount of teaching her girlfriend about body acceptance will ever really help Yelena handle the way she looks in the mirror.

She and Kate date for a long while before they even try to do more than kiss, and I don't think their first time goes particularly well. Sex is very triggering for Yelena, even when her boundaries are respected and her consent is enthusiastic, and it's not something they do super often.

HCs for Yelena being a supportive partner to the very ADHD Kate?

(ADHD Kate Bishop is my favourite thing and I love supportive girlfriends)

So! I think this has a lot of growing pains-Kate is hyperactive ADHD and Yelena is inattentive adhd and sometimes those competing access needs really develop into an argument.

In terms of active support? Yelena always has fidget toys on hand. Kate picks at her cuticles and bites her nails (which drives Yelena up a wall) so Yelena makes sure there are distractions on hand. She's also the one who manages Kate's meds, because Kate will forget to even go pick the damn things up. Yelena is a list girlie which Kate doesn't really get. Yelena also makes a concerted effort to at least enjoy Kate's hyperfixations (as long as they don't contain active triggers). She might not LOVE Rupaul's Drag Race, but she grows to enjoy it and watch it with Kate.

Yelena gets overwhelmed and overstimulated easier than Kate, and needs alone time to decompress. Kate is MUCH more consistently outgoing, and it takes them some time to figure out boundaries when it comes to Yelena needing a break.

it would be cool if knowing a behavior or thought pattern was irrational made you stop doing it

this is (shockingly) a humble plea to come bug me about how I see Yelena's sexuality and relationship with intimacy

vampirism poses the question "what if there was a fundamental, horrible, unending well of want in your soul that, if truly satisfied, would lead to great pain for all those you hold closest and, in turn, their absolute and total revilement of you?" and naturally as a person with no problems I don't relate to this in any way at all.

This isn't exactly how Kate pictured reuniting with Yelena Belova.

For starters, there's a lot more blood than Kate considered there might be, and Kate is a lot less smooth than she is when she daydreams about this moment in the shower.

Also, the Winter Soldier is involved.
