I often think about how the KGB controlled Eliza, and it wasn’t easy. She was dangerous even when she was young — incredibly smart && unpredictable if they didn’t keep her in check. So, they put an inhibitor in the base of her spine, hidden so deep you’d need surgery to even find it. If she ever tried to mess with it, it would hit her with electric shocks bad enough to drop her instantly.
And that still wasn’t enough for them. When they sent her out on missions, she wore a stealth suit — all tactical and black, with a mask akin to the winter soldier’s. But the real kicker was the earpiece within the mask. they built in a micro sonic cannon, and if she ever disobeyed, they could trigger it remotely and knock her out before she even knew what was happening.
but the thing is, she didn’t often need controlling. Eliza grew up inside four walls. She was trained to be loyal to Russia before she even knew what loyalty meant. These were more precautions a means to control the beast within.

a beat of silence; watching him dig his own grave deeper and deeper. she knows the truth. he knows she knows the truth. they’ve played this game before and it never ends well for james.
Sharp inhale as she leans back into her seat “ are you going to tell me the truth or am I going to have to make you ?? ” an eyebrow quirks, decidedly amused look. even then, there is something sharp in the way she smiles.

y'all got beef with yeliza I see

GLOVED KNUCKLES SKIM AIR — deliberate, restrained. She could end this if she wanted to, could drive Yana down into the dust like an afterthought. Instead, she lets the former widow dance along the frayed edges of her patience.
The words land harder than any strike. Something coils in Yeliza’s chest — pride, or perhaps the restless thing curled beneath her skin, thrumming to be unleashed. A grin cuts across her mouth, thin and wolfish. Fine. If that’s the game Yana wanted to play.
The next strike comes faster, knuckles grazing ribs with just enough force to leave a memory. “ Careful, ” she scoffs as her posture squares back up, “ poke the beast too many times and you might just get bitten. ”

“ what makes you think i have any knowledge of his current whereabouts ?? but be my guest. ” brows furrow as she leans back into her seat as green eyes watch the other.
Because we know in the comics she's in and out of stasis for near 21 years only being let out for assignments/assassinations and experimental procedures. I am convinced they are talking about project: changeling
When melina talks about a project in conjuction with the winter soldier project and she mentions about a brain being dissected and reconstructed and I can't help but imagine how that was Yelizaveta

A MINUTE QUIRK OF A BROW ; though a smile does break, uneven as her gaze watches Yelena ❛ you want something ?? Just ask for it ❜ Eliza repeated, leaning against the kitchen counter, head cocking to side ❛ you could've just knocked instead of breaking and entering into my place like this ❜
im gonna take your thought and fling it into the air team rocket style @matryochka
