The theme of sacrifice also often appears. Given that they are in the middle of a war, there are times when they have to make difficult choices. They might sacrifice their own safety or even their own identities to achieve a greater goal for the war effort. Their 'ghost - like' existence sometimes means they are willing to disappear completely if it means victory.
There's also a story where they are like phantoms in the war, titled 'Ghostly Allies'. In this fic, their skills are enhanced to an almost supernatural level, making them seem like ghosts as they move through the battlefields, taking out enemies one by one. They rely on each other's instincts and develop a deep connection that goes beyond the normal comradeship.
One common theme is trust. After the Civil War, they have to re - establish trust in each other and in themselves. Another theme is redemption. They both feel guilty about their actions during the war and are seeking a way to make up for it.
The relationship can develop through their shared anticipation of the baby. Steve can become more in tune with Natasha's emotions, and they can have deeper conversations about their future as a family. For example, they might talk about how they'll raise the child, whether they want a traditional or more unconventional upbringing.
One great plotline could be Natasha and Steve teaming up in a covert mission during the events of Infinity War that wasn't shown in the movie. They might discover a hidden weakness of Thanos and try to exploit it. Another could be a story focused on their relationship development in the midst of the chaos of the war, like how they support each other through the tough decisions they have to make.
One common theme is their unwavering loyalty. In most fanfics, Steve and Natasha are shown to be completely loyal to each other, always having each other's backs during the events of Infinity War.
A popular one is 'Shifting Allegiances'. It's a well - written fanfiction that explores the dynamic between Steve and Natasha. The author does a great job of portraying their inner thoughts and how they interact with other characters in the context of the Civil War.
It could start slowly. Maybe they first notice each other during a lecture at Avengers University. Steve is intrigued by Natasha's quiet confidence, and Natasha is curious about Steve's old - fashioned values. They gradually become friends as they study together in the library. As time passes, they find themselves thinking about each other more and more, and eventually, their friendship turns into a romantic relationship.
It's inappropriate. The characters of Steve and Natasha are from well - known fictional universes. They are symbols of heroism and certain values. Reducing them to the subject of sexual fanfiction is a degradation of their significance. It's better to create fanfiction that respects the essence of the characters and promotes positive ideas.
In Steve and Natasha love fanfiction, one characteristic is the way it portrays their mutual respect. They are both strong characters, and the fanfictions often show how they respect each other's skills and decisions. Another aspect is the tension. Given their different backgrounds and the world they operate in, there's a lot of built - up tension that makes the relationship interesting. Also, the exploration of their emotions in a more private, less superhero - ish context is common.
