But the thing is that Natasha, who has little to no reason NOT to trust Hill in the current climate, given she's associated herself with Stark, the Widow and the MA, is being ridiculous and overly sceptical of Maria, in my eyes.
I'm not a huge Maria Hill fan, don't get me wrong, but it does seem that Natasha's been shoehorned into the role of someone doubting her just for the Hell of it. If Maria had gone to say, Bucky or Luke Cage, I'd expect the reaction she's been given by Natasha throughout this arc. As it is, Natasha would clearly recognise the fact that Hill's been through Hell, and rather than chastise her for being unclear, would help her shape up and sort things out.
As it is, it just looks like yet another effort on Fraction's behalf to drag this out even more.
