Oh, do I just get on your sweet side if I keep hyping you up? You should have said so earlier, I'd be over here sending you daily affirmations.

Well, I'd also call you short, because I love to live dangerously apparently. It's cute though. And it#s not like that makes you less terrifying, promise. We can walk somewhere and you can be my scary dog privilege, how's that?

Also hey, so. I'm just gonna ask you a stupid question. Because we haven't chatted in a while, and I wasn't sure if we had a moment back then, y'know, and then I wasn't sure if my job and your job mean you might not wanna talk.

But, we're flirting, right? This is flirting?
I'm so down to keep doing it, I just wanna check in.
If it's not the vibe, my bad, no hard feelings, I'll dial it back.
But if it's the vibe, I mean.
We should so something about this.
And if I stole your thunder while you were on the way to ask me out, my bad, I'll act very surprised and flustered anyway, promise.

[ Kate, for all that she gets flustered and awkward - infinitely better at this than Bucky and Sam, actually. ]

Only one way to find out. Keep it up, see where it gets you. You like science, yes? Experiment. Scary dog privilege, hm? Interesting. Explain this to me a little more. Please?

[She can be polite! Sometimes.

Yelena frowns a little at that set of texts. She knows sometimes Kate just gets in her head and gets silly ideas stuck in there. But she's also very good at clarifying things when needed, or asking for it if she needs it herself.

That doesn't always mean Yelena is as good at answering clearly.
But this time, it feels easy.
And that's kind of nice, isn't it?]

Yes, I am flirting with you, Kate Bishop. What do you propose we do about it, then? I am intrigued.

It means I get to twirl around the street knowing someone walks with me who scares off danger
but who is sweet to me and who I can pet and adore and love on

GLAD to hear about the flirting. I'm also flirting, for the record. Full on crush situation over here, not even joking.
I'd love to keep flirting. We could also go on a date, see how that goes for us. I can ask you out if you'd like.
Or you can ask me out, too.
I'm easy.
Wait, not like that.
Maybe a little like that.
For you, probably very much like that.

A N Y W A Y

That does sound very much like me. I accept this new descriptor. I want to hear more about you petting me. I knew you liked me before you knew you liked me, Kate. But thank you for confirming anyway, I appreciate it. You are so cute. Yes, I think I would very much like you to take me out on a date.

[Could Yelena plan a date and do just fine with it? Probably. But these social things still make her squirm a little, make her worried about misstepping somehow. She'd rather see what Kate does, follow her lead on this, and then figure out how to make it her own as time goes on.]

I could ask you to do anything and I think you would do it. It's something about the accent, isn't it? Just kind of makes you want to... obey me.

I could scratch you behind the ears. Draaaaaag my fingers through your hair, across your scalp. It's nice, I promise.

Oh yeah? How'd you know then, huh?
I'm so cute, you can't stand it. Bet you wanna bite me :)

And maaaaaaaybe. I wouldn't mind doing as told if I get a 'good girl' out of it.
Not in general, just from you specifically.
I don't like to do as told.
But I think I'd love to do as you tell me.
Yeah? Yeah.

but alright alright alright, let me do this right, okay? You deserve it! And I have to pretend that I'm cool and smooth for like..... 5 seconds.

That does sound very nice, actually. I think I might like that very much. Especially your fingers in my hair. Just don’t pull too hard. Oh, I already knew that. But I do still appreciate the confirmation.

[It will slip out at an inopportune moment eventually, at the rate they’ve gone so far, but the idea of calling Kate a good girl has never been more appealing than it is right now.]

If you insist.

Yelena, I think you're great. I can't get you out of my mind. And while I'm happy to try and be your friend and have cute girl's nights.... I would love to actually date you. And I think you might like dating me, too.

I'd really like to take you out on a date. Dinner and a movie and maybe even a kiss, if you'd like one. Dressed up nice and all official.

What do you say? Will you go out with me?

[Oh.
This was more than she expected. And she really didn’t have much in way of expectations to start with.
But this is cute.
It’s very sweet.
It’s all making her a little emotional, if she’s completely honest.]

Yes, Kate Bishop, I will go to dinner with you. Play your cards right and you might get a kiss at the end of the night.

[It’s a trick; there’s no way she won’t get a kiss, but Yelena has to play with her a little, or it just isn’t them.]

[ Y E S. Oh, she is so nailing this whole thing. She's got game, holy shit. Well, at least when it comes to Yelena. ]

Oh, challenge so accepted. I will win you over until you wanna kiss me S O bad :)

I can't wait.

[Chances are incredibly high that she'll get a kiss anyway. But Yelena is very interested in seeing the kind of moves Kate might pull out to make sure it happens.]
