Requesting Natasha recs

Dear all, I would greatly appreciate some Black Widow fic recs. I'm looking for fics that really focus on and explore her character. Get, het, slash, it's all good, the longer the better, but short fics that pack a punch are also eagerly accepted. Thanks in advance!

Irnan has some wonderful Natasha stories - http://archiveofourown.org/works/453057, http://archiveofourown.org/works/484288, http://archiveofourown.org/works/492601 (mostly gen).

One of Domarzione Freezer Burn stories is focused on Natasha - you don't have to read other stories in the series to enjoy it, and it's brilliant reading - http://archiveofourown.org/works/1024456, gen and Natasha/Bucky.

This one is about Maria Hill and Natasha friendship , really good - http://archiveofourown.org/works/934035. by Frey_O.

And if don't mind self-recs:), I have two short one - one about Natasha's backstory (http://archiveofourown.org/works/634352) and one about Natasha&Bruce (http://archiveofourown.org/works/543507)

I will second the rec of Freezer Burn. A terrific part of a great series.

[livejournal.com profile] astridv runs regular Avengers recs (http://astridv.livejournal.com/tag/fic_recs%3Aavengers), and Natasha is one of her favorite characters, so nearly all of her recs feature Natasha prominently ....

https://archiveofourown.org/works/780222 and its ongoing sequel https://archiveofourown.org/works/984240 are very good.

Uhm there is this one fic that's like my all time favourite:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/424586
It's called 'there are many names in history (and all of them are ours)', by pprfaith. It features Natasha as the personification of Russia and Tony is the personification of America and it's short but it's glorious.

Also this series is awesome:

I think the first two stories and the one called "Birthday Girl" are especially centered around Natasha :)
