Natasha seems to be handling it well, so far as she's handling it. Her expression is grim and pale, but as Jemma has noticed, her foot is still in her boot. All things considered, she's handling it well.
Well enough that when Jemma questions her, she's prepared to answer. After a pained breath, she says, "I was hurt during the raid on the hospital, trying to get people out. They said then that there was a risk..."
She thought she'd tended to the would quickly enough, but she can't deny that it wasn't her first priority at the time. Now the bony spurs that end her leg, slowly oozing dark fluid, clearly illustrate her mistake. The ends twitch in front of them, spreading and stretching the skin of her leg and cutting her off. Natasha bites her lip against a pain that turns her stomach.
