valentina doesn’t like loose ends. even loose ends that work for her. your internship ended, she’s got no use for you anymore. yelena reminds herself you aren’t going to feel a thing, handing you the iced coffee she’s laced. she’ll put you in a deep sleep before she takes you out. still, she feels guilty. you wanted to make a difference in the world. you were always so sweet, sending her food to her apartment after she completed missions, putting smiley faces on files. you’re on your couch next to her, eyes beginning to droop. she reaches out to touch your hair.
