- hmm. I've actually never read said arc (I'm not a comics girl; MCU all the way, with articles from various wikias), but it does (to my knowledge) go into Natasha and Bucky's affair, and the nasty fall-out from it, which Aspen and I are going to play with.
Okay. Although MCU =/= comics (which is a point that I'm aware I do go on about, but it's very, very true), I'm afraid I'm having to be the one to say "could you please not?" I completely get characters and their traumas, and trying to reassure them? But my issue is that that arc exposes some very painful bits of Natasha's history, and while I'm not sure exactly how Aspen and I are playing with it yet, we're keeping the general idea. And part of it is this IC...Natasha has honestly had so little privacy over the course of her life? If anyone is going to know about the time she had a raging affair with Bucky and it ended in brain-washing and induced-cyro-comas, I'm not really comfortable with that knowledge being gained from reading a comic because someone is worried about someone else, and her past just gets exposed along the way.
(Pups and their traumas, and all of that.)
So, while in general I'm perfectly fine with Marvel comics being around in Olivia's 'verse, I have to honestly say I'm not comfortable with this idea. Can I ask what your other ideas are? Because I do get that it'd be healthier for Olivia to know what's going on, just that this way is...weirding me out.
