Yelena Belova Emoji Hc's Prompt 2
❣️ - What are their love languages?
This is a more difficult question than you’d think. I don’t actually think Yelena was ever able to develop a love language. Not that she isn’t capable of love, but outside of those brief months with Melina and Alexei, I have no idea when she would have developed this, realistically speaking. If I had to guess, it would be quality time where she can discover things she has in common with her partner and have things like their favorite song or favorite movie. (Like she did with Alexei and “American Pie”)
🌙 - What’s their sleep schedule like?
Yelena is light sleeper. It’s from her days in the widow program. None of them were heavy sleepers. They didn’t have the opportunity to be. However, this habit/lifestyle hasn’t let up even though it’s been years since she was in the program. She wakes at every sound. But! Yelena is learning to enjoy sleeping even though she struggles with nightmares.
🎁 - How do they feel about their birthday/birthdays in general?
She would have likely had a “fake” birthday for photographs with Melina and Alexei, but I don’t believe she would have had the chance to have a real birthday until after she escaped the Black Widow program. Alexei and Melina would most likely have a birthday party for her, or Kate Bishop would have a birthday party for her. (or both). Of course, a queerplatonic reader would throw her one.
🧑🦰 - Have they ever dyed their hair? Ever cut it themself?
Yes, I bet she’s the one who cut it in Thunderbolts.
🍷- How do they feel about alcohol?
She doesn’t mind it. She prefers not to get drunk as she knows that leaves her vulnerable, but if she’s around someone like Kate, a partner, or someone else she trusts, she’s more open to getting drunk. She loves girly cocktails.
🗣️ - How do they handle public speaking?
It’s not something she’s ever really needed to do. Personally, I don’t see her enjoying it.
🎮 - What’s their favorite game?
Natasha’s is Mortal Kombat. Considering Yelena loses every time, it is certainly not her favorite. Kate introduced her to Mario Kart. Sometimes, she likes trying things like Resident Evil or something relaxing like Stardew Valley.
🤡 - What’s something dumb they’re embarrassed about?
We know canonically that her Black Widow poses, but she’s also self-conscious about how to form friendships.
