My Take On Alexei And Melina As Parents

My take on Alexei and Melina as parents

ok, this is probably gonna be a rant so iā€™m sorry but anyway

Iā€™ve seen SO many people calling them the big baddies or saying ā€˜fuck themā€™ but man, thatā€™s not it. SURE, they should never have allowed Dreykov to get the girls but THINK about it.

Melina said she had gone through the Red Room at least 4 times BEFORE Natasha was even born, imagine how fucked up her head must be? She never learned how to love, she thought her role was to obey, to serve, to please. She even says to Natasha that she was born inside a cage and that was the only way she knew how to live. However, once she saw that helping Dreykow hurt her daughters (not specifically Natasha since she knew she managed to escape), the only thing (besides, probably her not so fake husband) she ever loved in her life she was bold enough to FINALLY act on it and rebel against it. Iā€™d also like to say that when Alexei told them they HAD to leave she expressed she didnā€™t wanted to, Melina just wasnā€™t brave enough back then but damn, did she loved her little girls.

Now, Alexei.

HEAR ME OUT before judging!

We donā€™t get much of his backstory, what we know is that he was an idealist and that Dreykov sold this ideology for him and then locked him up for no apparent reason, YES he shouldnā€™t have sold two little innocent girls to and I quote ā€œcomplete a missonā€ but I also donā€™t think Melina EVER told him what the Red Room was like, sheā€™s not the chattiest or the most vulnerable person in the world. He claimed so much he was pissed about being undercover but he was just as sorry as Melina about leaving, when she says ā€œI donā€™t wanna goā€ he says ā€œdonā€™t say thatā€ as in: donā€™t make me wanna stay too. I know he seemed self absorbed but that was his way to take the focus out of getting ā€œsoftā€ and falling for this family, because wanting this family would mean he wouldnā€™t complete his mission. He could have let them take both Nat & Yelena away without talking to them, but he told them theyā€™d be fine even tho they wouldnā€™t, after 20 years he still remembered Yelenaā€™s favorite song, he still knew what they were up to. He failed them bad and he knew it and regretted but admitting he was wrong and failed was bullshit since thereā€™s no such a thing as failure to a russian super soldier.

Both Alexei and Melina knew their love for their ā€˜fake familyā€™ was real, even the ultimate asshole of assholes canā€™t help but smile when a little kid calls you ā€œmomā€ or ā€œdadā€, fake it until you make it is fucking real. They just didnā€™t wanted to word it out, because the more real the more itā€™d hurt, but to them Natasha and Yelena were their daughters, ā€œtheir girlsā€ and that was their family. Again, iā€™m NOT excusing them or what they did, iā€™m just saying that theyā€™re not the ones we should be targeting.

Anyways, sorry if thatā€™s too long or if thereā€™s any misspellings iā€™m tiredddd

Manifesting a timeline in the multiverse where Alexei and Melina didnā€™t let the Natasha and Yelena be taken back by Dreykov in Cuba, and ran away with them and defected to SHIELD, and raised them as a very happy assassin family.
