Feeling Belova for Yelena Belova
Really diving into her asexuality and it’s just so relatable. I also love her so much as a character. She has next to no content, though!
SO, send me stuff! I just want to talk about her. Send me meta! Hc requests! Anything! I really want to write Yelena x reader queer platonic so send me that, too, if you want!

hi lovely vy could u do headcanons where yelena works for shield and always does missions alongside the avengers (even if she’s like 16/17) and so everyone sees her as super mature for her age but she’s still just a teen and faces some of the normal struggles like body image problems/ depriving herself of food because she’s been told that her worth only comes from her appearance. and maybe steve and tony and bucky all notice at separate times and try to help her and come to the realization that they’ve all been treating a child as an adult
As someone who struggles with body image and an ED I'm incredibly thankful for this request dear. Hope you like the headcanons 💕
Platonic pairings: Yelena & Steve, Yelena & Bucky, Yelena & Tony
Warnings: Body image issues and food restriction, Over-exercising, Self-doubt, Questioning self-worth
Genre: Hurt/Comfort, Platonic Fluff, Angst
She's found a home here, two actually
She's surrounded by people who care for her, people she trusts
She contributes greatly in the city's - or rather world's - security
She's never been at a higher point as far back as she can remember
Then why does this dark raincloud still dangle itself above her head?
Why is it raining down doubt, hesitation and reluctance into her mind?
Why does it leave her sleepless at night?
And why does it get her stuck in front of the mirror a lot longer than necessary?
Yelena's always been treated years beyond her actual age
There's really no other way she could've been approached and treated when all her life she's been seen as some sort of weapon
Now, she's a soldier, an agent, a hero
And the weight of the responsibility has only grown heavier on her back
It was a close call during their last mission, one that could've cost a civilian's life, that sent her down the dark spiral without any harness for her to hold onto or get lifted up to the surface eventually
She's deemed the high viewing adults have of her as something for her to feel complimented by
To be seen as mature, intellectually and physically, past one's age is often perceived as a great admiration of the person's skillset and their ability in a certain field or line of work
But when the person is still just a teenager, one who never got to experience proper childhood at that, the positive aspects of it get thrown out the window
It does more harm than good
Which is precisely the case with Yelena who, despite doubting it, started losing self-regard and care for the sole purpose of being the hero and protector she'd deem 'worth' fighting alongside the Avengers
It took effect drastically
Drastically enough for people to thankfully start noticing
The first was Tony
He picked up on her more than half full plates following every meal, the lack of empty spaces on the plate contradicting her claims of feeling full or stuffed
He'd tried to point it out to her, how she was not rationing her food intake properly with her workout regimen, but she brushed him off with a claim that the protein shakes she drank were making her feel full
When he told her to cut down on them, she'd unconvincingly agreed
Second was Steve
He noticed her excessiveness, the newfound urge to go further and faster with every workout than ever before
He had half-jokingly warned her to slow down to which she almost bitterly replied that if it were him he definitely wouldn't slow down
The nail didn't get hit on the head till Bucky accidentally stumbled across her journal
It had been left in the cafeteria - her newly-scatterbrained self had forgotten it there - and he had flicked it open in hopes of finding any evidence of the owner's identity
He immediately recognized Yelena's neat cursive handwriting and was just about to close it and go return it to her when he noticed what had been written
A workout routine, body measurements, calorie counter comparing intake and the amount burnt during her training sessions
This sent off every last alarm in Bucky's head who, up until that point, had already had a sneaking suspicion that something was awry with the girl
And when he brought it up to Steve and Tony, he was beyond relieved to know he was not the only one
An intervention was bound to take place
And it did when Tony stumbled across Yelena in one of the rec rooms on base
He'd beckoned Steve and Bucky over too with one quick text and the meeting was in order
It took a lot of back and forth, a lot of false convincing from Yelena's side of the table and even more disbelief from her three mentors
When she admitted her struggles finally, tears staining her eyes as she white-knuckled her hands into fists, it felt like a ton of that weight she'd been carrying around, pressing down on her, was lifted
Like that raincloud had finally stopped pouring over her and had lightened up greatly
Her admission was followed by a spiel of genuine reassurance and comfort from the three Avengers
The first step of her recovery from that negative mental space was the burning of that damned journal
From that point on, she promised to trust the three with her workouts and meals as she had done prior to those depleting thoughts' nestling into her head
It's the one thing she's been seeking out all her life
People to trust and rely on
People who actually care
A family
That cloud might still be following her around, but it's pearly white and calm, not a raindrop in sight
But if a storm does start brewing, she'll have someone to shield her from it

Y/N: no we’re not stopping until the Red Room is burned to its core
Melina: brave one. I see why you are dating them.
Natasha: it’s mostly for Y/N’s cuddles and the way they treat our baby
Yelena: you have a baby?
Y/N: she’s only three months old!
Y/N shows them a picture of a kitten…
Alexei: my grandchild is a cat?
Yelena: and you laugh because I want to own a dog!?

hi beautiful i’m not the anon w the yelena request but could u do headcanons where yelena is going through the events of falcon and the winter soldier w sam and bucky and john walker makes some really bad comments to her earlier on and then hurts her really bad during the fight so bucky gets super protective
Bottom line: Fuck John Walker; Thank you for coming to my TED talk and enjoy the headcanons 💕
PS: I've not yet seen the show (I know, I suck, I'm sorry 😭) so this is gonna be a bit of an outtake of sorts but don't worry it'll live up to the shittiness of John's character
Platonic Relationships: Bucky Barnes & Yelena Belova & Sam Wilson
Warnings: Insults and Derogatory Comments, Physical Altercation, Injury, Swearing
Genre: Platonic Fluff, Hurt/Comfort, Angst
Yelena has always had a strong gut instinct, one she could trust with anything at anytime
But even if that wasn't the case, simply looking at the smug face of John Walker would've set off plenty of alarms and fed her all the reasons she'd need to dislike him right off the bat
It sure helped seeing that Bucky and Sam shared her opinion, their glares as sharp as hers whenever their eyes would land on the man, cutting holes into him
He wasn’t any kinder in return
Say what you will about him, but the way he was able to gauge precise details about Yelena with minimal amount of time spent in her vicinity was nothing short of eerie
He knew what dots to hit to hurt her as much as he could
Digging through her past, how she came to be who she is today, tugging strings to lift the curtain she’s been trying so hard to keep closed all her life
The curtain separating her current self from the person they crafted in the Red Room
A killing machine, as John had called her
But that was only one insult of many, all barreling down the hill and piling up.... 
“You’re a worthless weapon. Unless your crosshairs are aimed at someone, you’re absolutely useless“
“Were your culinary classes before or after the daily kill-or-be-killed sessions?“
“You want to be her, don’t you? Sorry to break it to you , sweetheart, but Natasha Romanoff was a hero. And you certainly aren’t that.“
...until enough was enough
And until the last string was pulled
He though of her as a weapon? A worthless one at that?
He’d get nothing less
At the mention of her sister, Yelena couldn’t stomach a word more with her aggression harnessed
So, she simply set it loose and allowed it to launch her forward at the bastard
Despite how sudden the attack was, John was able to dodge it
But only partly
A kick to his shin brought him to a knelt position which allowed him to be an easy target for Yelena’s knee uppercut 
Not easy enough though because he managed to dodge it and counter her back-up attack which was meant to be a kick delivered square to his chest
Unfortunately, the size difference between them worked out in his favor and helped him greatly when he gripped her leg by the ankle and whirled her in to the other side of the room
The harsh impact of Yelena’s body into the wall sent pieces of tile and dust raining down around her slumped form
Her body was shaken by the force of the hit, her vision blurred because of the nasty injury she’d obtained on the back of her head from where blood was now gushing, staining her blond locks a deep haunting red
The same shade Bucky started seeing when him and Sam walked in a second too late to witness the whole thing
Nevertheless, it took them less than a second to connect the dots
Whereas Sam ran to Yelena’s aid, Bucky wasted no time inflicting his own damage on the asshole who, for the splittest of seconds, looked almost guilty to have inflicted so much damage on the girl
That’s partially why Bucky’s fists made a harsher collision with his jaw and cheek than they would’ve had John had all his bearings intact
He took his chance and ran with it, refusing to slow down even when the redness of his vision was no longer so much anger as it was the blood coating John’s face, neck and upper chest
It’s around this time Sam, only after making sure Yelena was ok, ran over to prevent Bucky from killing the man for no reason other than to keep his partner out of trouble
God knows he himself wanted John dead at the moment as well
But with the last bit of restraint kicked into action, the two men backed away from the beaten and bloodied asshole on the floor and made their way to a still dazed Yelena who was now sitting up with her back against the wall
Her eyes had a sad glint to them, tears of either pain or genuine sadness staining the pools of brown
“You shouldn’t have done that...“ She mumbled with a solemn shake of her head, fearing the repercussions he Bucky might face after this sort of outburst
He’s anything but worried however
“No one lays a finger on you and gets away with it, kid“
Something about the smile he utilizes when reassuring her is convincing enough to get a small one out of her as well
Apart from a strong gut, Yelena has also had a knack for finding herself a family in the most unlikely of places
She lost her sister, but now she has two brothers 
They’ll never replace or fill-in for her loss, but they’ll help her heal from it and from all else that’s been haunting her
That’s what family does for one another, is it not?
