[Oh, Steve. Natasha gives him a truly gleeful look that should have him running for the hills and immediately heads out before he can change his mind. She might not be related to Steve, and she's not about to give Bucky the shovel talk, but she is as protective over Steve as Becca is over Bucky and wants to make sure that he's pinning his heart on someone worth it.
She can be scary when she wants to be. Clint sometimes jokes that being a ballet dancer is just her cover, and she's really a spy or KGB agent sent here to infiltrate them all. That usually leads to Natasha emphasising her Russian accent and talking about the 'motherland' and 'comrades' all night.
Bucky and Becca are halfway up the next staircase and might not have noticed Steve, except for Yasha, the new dog, a large and beautiful German Shepherd. She's well trained, as a service animal should be, and so she wants to get the scent and lay of everyone in the building. She tugs on her leash enough to make Bucky stumble back down the stairs and nearly fall in a heap at Steve's feet, only just managing to keep his footing.]
Oh.
[Goddamnit, Barnes, why is he always looking like an idiot when he comes across Steve?]
Uh, hi. And hi to you too, ma'am, I mean-- miss, I mean--

Actually, just Natasha will do.
