Part of the reason I’m so good at undercover work is that I actually like being other people. There’s a lot I’ve done that I regret. When I leave the other identity behind, whether I slip out from underneath it voluntarily or it’s ripped from my grasp. It always hits me like a shock. Like being awakened from a deep sleep back to who I really am. On my birth certificate: Natasha Romanoff. On my S.H.I.E.L.D. Dossier: Black Widow. And no matter what the circumstances…it’s good to be home.
