[She is serious. He made the offer, invited it and while she would set boundaries, she wasn't about to back down. Not unless he did, unless this wasn't something he was comfortable with. Natasha was a lot of different kinds of monsters, but she wasn't that kind. Consent was maybe the most important thing to her in situations, because she'd spent so much of her life not having a say she would never take it from someone else. If he'd said no, or even worse, looked scared as she met her eyes, she wouldn't have pushed it. But he's just watching her, and she smiles softly, fingers gentle as they drag down from the tip of his chin to settle around his throat -- the first time she's touched him this softly.
Her eyes are attentive, watching him, his eyes, the look on his face. There's a fire in her eyes, but it's muted, not uncontrolled like when she had thrown him against the wall. Her fingers start to constrict, but it's slow, gradual, and there's a softness to her, like this. Because there's a trust to someone allowing you to steal their breath away, fingers around his throat and he has to know how much worse she could do if she chose to. But she won't. She'll use sexuality to slip a knife into someone's ribs, but not this.
She can see it in his eyes when her fingers start to take away his breath and it makes her breath catch. This affects her, gets under her skin. And fuck if there isn't something about watching him like this.]
