( ooc: yeah, either works. America herself wouldn't be the best at picking up on that, normally, but this situation allows for it. She'll touch base with Natasha to apologize later, omg. lol )
( America shrugs to Natasha's question and puts on a fake smile. ) Yeah. You?
( She doesn't feel comfortable expressing those vulnerabilities. But, her mind echoes, if she's feeling uncomfortable, if she feels vulnerable, if voices are whispering to her, what are the chances Natasha feels the same? Normally, America wouldn't care about any of this, not to betray someone at all, not someone she barely knows, not even finding the information without her, but there is something wrong in this room, more than just the carving. )
( Especially when the whispers start to tell her Natasha could hurt her, there is nothing to promise she won't. )
