Gwen had a lot of stories, and she was positive that Natasha had her fair share of them too. And what she was hoping was that over time, they could both share them with each other. The good stories, the bad stories, the fun stories, and the difficult stories. She wanted to have a relationship with her that allowed them to be able to talk openly, confide in each other about things and share their life experiences. She'd looked up to Natasha so much before; she still did now, even if they were just getting to know each other. Not in a creepy, obsessive way, or in a way that put unfair expectations on Natasha to be some perfect heroine with no flaws. Gwen just thought she was great, and she wanted to get closer to her. Then they could share those stories, good or bad, and have a friendship they could both benefit from.
Sometimes she wondered how she'd do fighting with a team. If things were going to continue in the direction they'd been going in before she got here, she probably would've found out. Assembling multiple spider-people had been the agenda, but she'd wound up here instead. Even so, that was different than what the Avengers were. Having a clutter of Spiders was having a group who all operated very similarly. The Avengers were so eclectic, from what she could tell. All different and with different skill sets. Gwen liked that, though she wasn't sure how well she'd operate with it, being used to being alone for so long. Maybe that was why she gravitated to Natasha, because she understood what that was like.
"I'm glad you all found each other. That Fury guy, I guess he knew what he was doing by bringing you all together. I think it's great," she said. Going back to her fighting skills, she scratched the back of her head and laughed a little. "I mean, I haven't died yet. I think if I wasn't as durable taking hits, and if I didn't have my web shooters, I'd probably be in a lot more trouble." She was downplaying herself a little; Gwen wasn't bad at hand to hand, and she was very agile and graceful in her movements. But she lacked technical skill. Most of it was guessing and emulating moves she saw in videos. "You think you could show me some moves sometime? It's not like we're doing battle everyday but you never know when something like Las Vegas or those majorly creepy woods with the aliens will come back."
