BLESS YOU

[ While ice skating isn't the same as dancing, elements of the two overlap. Balance and control. In her lifetime, Natasha thinks she spent more time in the studio than in the rink, but she'll never know for certain how much was real. Her time spent on ice is more tangible, an activity while undercover or a key opportunity to surveil a location unnoticed (even for fun — once with Clint's kids, which is the brightest recollection).

Whether it's ancient muscle memory or a more recently acquired skill, she skates closer to JJ with relative ease, angling her blades to loop around him. Natasha recognises his face from the station. Spotted him on the ice earlier, too. He's clearly capable (talented, even), but the boldness of his offer manages to surprise her. ]

[ The implication being she might say yes, if it's the former. ]
