Summary: [JAWS AU] Simply a little addendum I have around Jaws meeting Yelena (timeline wise, also known as the Black Widow Alternate). The brain's whirring right now aight- (first arc)
Pairing(s): Natasha Romanoff x Mutant!TigerShark!Reader, Mutant!TigerShark!Reader x Yelena Belova (platonic)
[JAWS AU Masterlist]
Warning(s): none that I can think of, maybe a language warning? Yeah we'll put that just in case
Note(s): There isn't any real dialogue here since this is more of my stream of consciousness to fill in some timeline details. Not really proofread cuz I'm really just talkin through text to speech and skimming for spelling errors💀. Hopefully it makes sense/is coherent at least, but since I was thinkin about this stuff, I’ll just add it to my list of dissertations o7
Word Count: more than 700, I know that much
*squints* I give NO ONE permission to repost or translate my work. Make your own shit

Alright lets' go Black Widow Alternate!
(That really just means I'm talkin about how the events of Black Widow go down in the JAWS AU....at least the pertinent details. i.e What happens when we deviate from canon blah blah blah)
Because Civil War doesn't happen in the JAWS AU, The Avengers are still together as a team and are able to take down the Red Room in the original way Yelena intended (“I kept checking the news, expecting to see Captain America bringing down the Red Room” but that actually happens here). This still serves as Natasha and Yelena's reunion as they get in contact with each other via the pictures Yelena sent.
Because Natasha isn't on the run (again, no CW = no accords...atm, and no Ross), she's not really stressed in that way. Natasha more so has to grapple with her own guilt at leaving her sister behind to go through life in the Red Room without her to look after her and even not trying hard enough to look for Yelena after getting out.
Natasha tried not to look back after Budapest, remember now.
Natasha tries to deflect and justify this in her own mind by trying to detach herself and saying that she and Yelena were never really sisters, just like how they were never really a part of a family with Melina and Alexei.
It was just a mission.
Natasha continues trying to push the narrative that her years in Ohio are in her past and that she couldn't wait to put them behind her to forget them when she got out. Natasha doesn't actually believe any of this. Those years spent with Yelena, Melina, and Alexei were very real to Natasha and she looks back on those times with fondness and regret they couldn't have lasted longer. However, Natasha is of the school of thought that if you say something enough times, maybe you'll start to believe it. Maybe.
Yelena immediately calls bullshit on Natasha's "I'm allergic to you" attitude, but it doesn't make Natasha's attempts hurt any less. To be so close again but treated like something other. Natasha's continued trying to push her out of her life is what gets to Yelena, that paired with seeing the people in Natasha's "present" makes Yelena self-conscious in ways that make her uncomfortable and that she usually deflects with humor and sarcasm.
It's Jaws that continues to reach out to Yelena. Not in the traditional sense, but they've taken to including Yelena and going out of their comfort zone to get to know Yelena during the red room mission (very similar scene to the Yelena and Nat beer scene talking about their lives). Yelena was protective and just a bit teasing when she found out that Jaws was Natasha's partner for sure. The ice breaker between Jaws and Yelena boiled down to Yelena doing a trick shot off of Jaws' teeth into a vodka bottle....with a bullet.
Whether or not Yelena thought she would kill Jaws by shooting them in the mouth is up for discussion...
Part of Jaws' interest in Yelena is because she is in some way part of Natasha's life, and even they can tell that Yelena is important to her without a doubt. The other part of Jaws cultivates this relationship with Yelena because she passes the vibe check, and not once has she referred to Jaws as a freak or a monster, which is what usually happens when people meet Jaws for the first time. Yelena couldn't care less about it. Wildly intrigued for both the right and the wrong reasons, but still-
Natasha seeing her "past" and "present" coexisting together pushes her to face her own feelings of guilt and even inadequacy head on (thinking of the " It was real to me too" scene) to repair and rebuild her bond with her little sister. Natasha also apologizes for not looking for her after she escaped the Red Room and trying to reduce her time with Yelena to a bad memory she kept trying to forget.
Yelena's focus afterward is freeing the remaining widows, of which she knows she can ask for her sisters and the avengers help. She is undecided whether or not she wants to officially become an avenger, but it is not off the table. Yelena and Jaws have become close over the course of the red room mission and even after, which makes Natasha very happy.

Jaws meeting Clint’s family after they start dating Nat. Cause they’re Nat’s family too. Jaws brings flowers for Laura and presents for the kids. The kids think they’re the coolest person ever.
Jaws was actually pretty nervous meeting Clint’s family. Clint and Jaws got along well, but this is different because there’s little people involved. They sat there clutching yellow orchids in one hand and holding Natasha’s with the other from the front seat.
Clint cut the engine when they pulled up to the Barton Farm. “I’m telling you, Jaws, you got nothing to worry about. They’re gonna love you!” He grabbed his bag while both you and Natasha got out of the car.
Laura was the one to open the door for the three of you, Jaws coming in last “ Honey I’m home,  and I’ve brought company,” Clint greeted Laura with a kiss and a quick embrace as he made way for Nat as they also hugged.
“How’ve you been, Nat?” Natasha pulled away and looked toward Jaws, who was standing a ways away, looking around the house. “I’ve been good. I wanted to introduce you to someone, actually.”
She brought Jaws over. “This is my partner, Jaws. Jaws, this is Laura,”
“It’s- um, it’s good to meet you. I know you all mean a lot to Natasha, so it means a lot to see you-meet you in person.” Jaws held up the yellow orchids “These are for you. I googled flowers that mean optimism. I figured these would be best,”
Laura simply took the flowers and brought Jaws into an embrace of their own. Now while Jaws was fumbling their words a bit coupled together with honesty, Laura could see how genuine they were, and that’s what matters right? They all heard footsteps come toward the living room.
“Daddy?”
“Was that dad we heard come in?”
“Dad’s home?!”
Oh god, it’s the little people
-----
“So you can crush basically anything with your teeth?”
“And they’re made out of metal?”
“Do you like using your gills or your nose to breathe more?”
“Well- yeah. My teeth can cut and crush anything I want. I, um. I think I like breathing with my gills more, it comes more naturally to me,” Jaws was definitely a bit flustered with all of the attention Clint’s kids were showing them.
“That’s awesome! Dad, can Jaws visit more often with Auntie Nat? I want to test all the things they can crush!” Cooper was already plotting things they could try out while Lila was already thinking of how she’d have to drag you away from Cooper’s stupidity.
Natasha was sitting with Clint and Laura while they watched you interact with the kids and playing with Nathaniels’s blocks idly. And to think, earlier they were worried about Clint’s family being scared of them.

imagine someone on the team (maybe nat) giving jaws a shark plushie
pfft, they are the most composed-
Jaws came into the dining room where Nat was eating while reading a book. “What is this, Natty?”
Nat looked up to see Jaws holding a plush shark about the size of a pillow. “It’s a shark, love.” Jaws’ eyes squinted.
“I get that it’s a shark, but why-” Natasha chuckled as she watched them look at the plush toy with skepticism. “Why was it on my side of the bed? I swear if this is Tony trying to be funny-”
“I got it for you, detka. I saw it while I was out and got it for you,” That itself was enough for Jaws to stop short. One part flustered and another part happy.
“Well- thanks. I thought it was something else.” They kept their eyes on the plushie when they spoke up again.
“I’m gonna put this back on my side of the bed now.”

For the Jaws au, maybe Jaws first visit to the dentist? Like I just picture Wanda and Nat talking to the dentist, explaining they just want Jaws’ teeth check cause they never had any kind of checkup. Meanwhile the dentist is staring behind them at Jaws who is grinning at them with all their sharp teeth showing.
This was a fun one to write
Now, Wanda and Nat are people with common sense, so they’re not going to a run of the mill dentist for Jaws of all people… That and they already tried one and they refused outright when they saw Jaws’ pointy grill, so they decided to go for a specialist.
“So…You just want a standard checkup, is that right?” The specialist, Dr. Kirkland hadn't taken their eyes off of Jaws since they signed into the office. She had been informed of Jaws’ mutation beforehand, but that doesn’t really prepare you to see the real thing up close.
Natasha looked up from one of the dental posters that was hanging on one of the walls. “Yes, just to be sure everything’s healthy. Make sure there’s nothing damaged. They’re a bit of an abnormality as far as patients go, for sure, but since we heard that you’re one of the best dental specialists in the area could you take a look?”
Dr. Kirkland slowly nodded. ‘I’m glad I took a minor in marine biology…’
---Bonus---
Honestly, it wasn’t all that bad. There was a fear at first that Jaws would cut her with how sharp their teeth are, but both Wanda and Natasha assured that that wouldn’t be an issue. 
So there was a standard checkup, Jaws doesn’t have much crowding, no tooth decay or cavities (on account of their teeth and jaws being reinforced by adamantium and consistently drinking saltwater) Though there were bristles from their previous toothbrushes that were stuck in certain places that needed to be removed.
For Jaws, it was weird at first having a stranger poking around in their mouth, but Wanda and Nat largely kept their mind off of it.
With the general checkup done, Dr. Kirkland gave Jaws a professional tooth cleaning and gave a prescription for some specific fluoride toothpaste for them to use as well as some recommendations for toothbrushes with reinforced firm bristles.
“Should I also include a prescription for a mouthguard, or?” The specialist looked up from her papers.
Natasha and Wanda looked at each other, and then at Jaws. “I mean they haven’t split their mouth open in their sleep, so I think they should be fine,” 
In the end, all parties left relieved. It was actually pretty interesting for Dr. Kirkland to get an up close look at serrated teeth and everything, so she approved of becoming Jaws’ dental doctor for the foreseeable future.
Jaws left the dental specialist with pearly whites and a lollipop that day.

Vision decides to embrace Jaws as Wanda’s sibling, not that he would have any choice, but he decides they must bond! So he comes up with science experiments for them to do together. Like it would start simple, like kid friendly experiments. Then next thing you know they’re testing something ridiculous like can Jaws hang on to a metal pipe with only their teeth while Vision holds it and slowly flies higher in the air. Turns out Wanda doesn’t like him dangling her Guppy 200+ ft in the air by their teeth. Who would have guessed?
This shouldn’t have made me laugh as much as it did- because can you imagine?
Wanda comes into the common room of the compound. “Hey Clint, have you seen Jaws? They were going to help me make dinner tonight, but I haven’t seen them anywhere.” Clint looks up from the TV
“Oh yeah, they went out back with Vis to do another one of their experiments not too long ago.”
“Oh, okay. Are they testing out that mini rocket they put together the other day?” She made her way to the sliding glass doors.
“Umm, I didn’t see them with a rocket. They did have a pole with them though. Something about testing endurance and height, I didn’t catch all the details-”
Wanda was already out the door. She looked around the back of the compound to try and catch sight of Jaws or Vision, but no dice. She then decided to look up.
“VISION, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!”
All she could see was Vision flying around at least a hundred feet in the air. 
With a pole.
That Jaws was hanging onto.
By their teeth. 
Wanda was gonna have a friggin’ heart attack. “VISION GET DOWN HERE NOW!” Vision noticed when Wanda came out of the compound and made his way to the ground. Jaws landing on their stomach.
“What were you two thinking?! When you told me you were going to spend time together doing experiments I thought you were going to make foam volcanoes and whatever else,” Jaws sat up on the ground.
“This is the whatever else bit then.” Jaws’ adrenaline high stopped short when Wanda tilted her head at them. Jaws gulped and looked away at the grass.
Vision set the metal pole on the ground. “Wanda, we were using this opportunity to bond, their safety should have been my first concern. I apologize,”
Wanda sighed heavily. “I’m glad you are getting along together, but I also want both of you to be safe, okay? I don’t want either of you to be hurt, Vis. Just- promise me that you won’t be pulling these kinds of stunts anymore, at least run them by someone reliable. I mean, Clint? Really?”
“I promise to run our experiments by Mr. Rogers or Ms. Romanoff next time, Wanda.” Jaws still hadn’t looked back at Wanda from the grass. “Gup, Promise me?”
Jaws turned their brooding eyes toward Wanda, only to give in. “Fine, I promise.”
Wanda smiled and stuck her hand out. “Good, now both of you come in and get cleaned up. You said you’d help me make dinner.”

Jaws figuring out the best way to deal with Tony. Cause violence disappoints Wanda and Nat. Yelling just amuses Tony which pisses Jaws off more. But now Jaws know. To deal with Tony, you call Pepper. The look on Tony’s face the first time Jaws pulled out their phone, that Peter just taught them to use, and called Pepper to tell her what Toney was doing had been priceless.
I can just imagine Tony losing a bit of color in his face like-
“How do you have her number?” He looked up from whatever machine he was fiddling with while Jaws waved their phone back and forth with a smirk.
“She gave it to me. This isn’t the office line either, Tones. This is Pepper’s personal number. All it takes is two taps with this phone thingy. Mad convenient, by the way. I don’t even have to type it in, it just right here-”
“Jaws, buddy, Swim Shady. Let’s not be hasty now,”
“Shouldn’t I?”
“How about I sign you up for that steakhouse you were talking about. Heck you can even go with Nat tonight, hmm?”
“I do like how that sounds…”
“Good, it sounds great right? So there’s no need to call Pep and make a stink of things,”
“Mhmm. Send me the membership when it’s done” Jaws walked out of Tony’s lab and once they turned the corner they started laughing in triumph.
Jaws is just gonna wait until after Tony signs up for the membership to call Pepper anyways.

Jaws AU: What the hell is pog? This is why we read labels first, everyone
[AU Masterlist]
Warning(s): None that come to mind, just Sam rethinking his life choices for a second
Word Count: a bit less than 500
Sam just came back from his run with Steve. He went into the kitchen to get a water bottle from the fridge. He grabbed one that was on the door of the fridge and gulped down a portion of it. He immediately pulled the bottle away from his mouth in disgust.
“Why is it salty?!” he closed the bottle and put it on the counter. He picked up a Gatorade that was also on the door of the fridge and took a drink, only to do the same thing.
“This too? Is there something wrong with my tastebuds?!” He looked at the bottle of gatorade with fear as he was about to have a bit of an existential crisis until Wanda came into the kitchen from the training room.
Wanda saw Sam looking at the bottle and put a hand on his shoulder. “You alright there, Sam?”
“I think my tastebuds are going haywire on me. Everything tastes salty,” He held up the bottle of gatorade for Wanda to see while she looked in the fridge.
“Where did you get these from again?” Sam pointed to the shelf on the door of the fridge.
Wanda looked at the drinks he took out again. “Sam, look at the cap on the drinks you took out and read what it says for me,” She was struggling to hold back a laugh by now.
“POG. What’s POG mean?” Wanda grabbed the bottles from sam and put them back in the fridge.
“That G is supposed to be a J. It’s P.O.J. Property of Jaws, Sam.” She was sure to make the explanation clear.
“Still, Why is it so salty, man? It’s gatorade for crying out loud,” His was was scrunched up at the thought of adding salt to drinks in general.
“Jaws has to keep the salt levels in their body regulated, so they add salt to their drinks to help with that. The label is so things like this don’t happen, Sam.”
Sam looked in the fridge where he got the drinks from to see everything on that shelf was labeled P.O.J. “Well, where are all of the regular drinks then? I’m thirsty,”
Wanda put the drinks back on the shelf and closed the fridge. “Clint is out to get more, You might want to text him if you want anything specific.” They both heard footsteps coming closer to them.
Jaws came into the kitchen toweling their hair. “Oh, heya guys. Y'all done with training?” They asked, moving to open the fridge. Wanda greeted them back while Sam watched as you grabbed the gatorade from the same shelf, opened it, and then chugged it without so much as a wince.
Sam turned to Wanda. “You think there’s still time to call Clint?”
