i've been seeing all these posts about the vest and how nat wore it in infinity war and how cute it was when yelena got excited about the pockets and all of that is brilliant and wonderful and should be discussed.
however
i can't get over the vest being the first thing yelena bought for herself. how, in the scene where she shows it to nat, nat is clearly underwhelmed by it. it's just a vest. but then yelena explains why it's so important, and then natasha says it's cool. and yelena says, "i knew you thought it was cool", which as a little sister myself, am almost certain translates to "big sister approves of my vest, time to rejoice". and it strikes to the core of yelena's feelings that their family was real and nat really is her big sister and she just wants her big sister to like the vest she bought because it's the first thing that's ever truly been hers, both physically but also as something she chose. her childhood was fake (as natasha keeps insisting) so all yelena has is this vest and the opinion of her not-sister who she still thinks the world of.
and then
at the end of the film, yelena gives natasha the vest. and i truly believe that she's able to do this, to part with her symbol of freedom and autonomy, because she's healed. her family was real, it was real to every member of it. and the red room, the organization that took her mind and personhood from her, is finally destroyed.
yelena looks at her big sister who says she's her big sister, who is insisting that she's going to face this next threat alone, and she's like, "this is a person in need of a cool vest". but maybe she's also like, "this is a way to prevent her from forgetting me again". but also maybe she's really like, "my big sister might need a reminder of her own autonomy, but also that she has a someone who always has her back."
yelena doesn't need the vest anymore, because she can be sure that she's her own person without it. and natasha's been her own person for a while now, and so the vest becomes something different. it's yelena saying that she has nat's back. it's a reminder of family. and it's given casually and effortlessly, because that's how we love when we love unconditionally.
