driftfleet | o1;; You didn't see that coming?

Who: Pietro & You!
Broadcast: yes
Action: SS Bloodsport
When: Right now

[ Video;; ]
[ The video feed shakes, the audio cracking as the communicator is moved around. The broadcasting image so far is the floor, covered in multicolored confetti, and a pair of black and grey running sneakers in view. The left foot taps impatiently before the video swings again to the bridge of the Bloodsport. ]

[ There is a sigh before heavily accented voice accompanies the shoddy cameraman-ship. ] If this is someone's idea of a prank, it lacks humor.

[ The communicator finally turns around, and Pietro is very firmly not happy with this situation. ]

I have complaints.

[ SS Bloodsport;; ]
[ Pietro can be found in various places throughout the Bloodsport. In the kitchen, trying to figure out what the deal with protein paste is. The bridge offers a bit of a distraction with the endless sea of stars or the array of broadcast settings, and how can he resist settling into the bunks? It's been a very long time since he's had his own room. ]

« I won't. Not if I can help it. »

[ I'll take care of you. It's a promise he's inevitably going to break, but while he's here, he's going to try his damndest and provide for her like he did after their parents died. Whatever it takes.

He's thankful for the Avengers' presence here. Pietro knows they've kept an eye on her in his absence. ]

<< You better not. >>

[And with that, Wanda finally feels strong enough to pull out of their embrace a little. Just enough space so that she can dry her eyes. She blushes a little, a tad embarrassed at the immense emotional display she just put on, as she wipes her eyes with her shirt sleeve. She then pops him lightly on the shoulder.]

Next time don't take so long.

I'll be sure to arrive early like always.

[ He grins at her, reaching out to give her hand a reassuring squeeze. Pietro will try his hardest not to disappoint her again. ]

[Wanda sighs, still smiling at him. She likely won't be able to stop anytime soon. She's very happy to see him.]

Do you want to go get a drink? I can fill you in on everything that's going on? That is, if you still have questions?

I would like that. The kitchen is this way.

[ He nods toward the staircase that takes them to the upper deck. ]

I was actually referring to something a little stronger?

[She gives him a wry grin, gesturing back to the shuttle she arrived on.]

[ Wanda has said the magic word, and his face lights up. ]

I would like that even better.

[ He touches her elbow as a gesture to lead the way. ]

[She figured that would pique his interest. She leads him back on board the shuttle and flies the two of them over to the Iskaulit. A few minutes later, the twins are entering the ship's bar. Wanda places her order for a drink before finding an empty booth for them to slide into.]

So, you want the whole story from the beginning? Or would you prefer I just answer some questions?

[ Once their drinks are ordered and their booth is situated, Pietro sits in the booth across from his sister. He takes a sip of his whiskey, wrinkling his nose. It's not great whiskey, but it will do. ]

Start from the beginning? [ The question is gentle, offering her an out if she wants. ]

[Wanda sips her own vodka tonic, amused at her brother's reaction to the quality of the alcohol. He wasn't exactly wrong though. She lets out a long sigh as she tries to remember back to when she first arrived herself.]

It's been over a year now since I was first brought here. There was the battle with Ultron, [Her eyes flicker for a moment, as she decides to best glaze over the specifics of home for now.] and then the next thing I know I was on that big ship. The one they call the Marsiva. Since then, we've visited several planets. This big ship we're currently enjoying our drinks in was at one point overrun with frenzied insect aliens that wanted to kill us.

[She gives her brother a raised eyebrow and a wry smile.]

So that was fun. I've already seen a lot of people come and go. Vision arrived a few months after I did, I believe. It was not too long after me. There has already been three? No, I think only two Starks since I've been here.

[Another look to her brother and wry smile, as she takes a moment to sip her drink again.]

Comparatively, Steve is one of the more newer arrivals. But obviously you now get to be the newest kid on the block. Oh, and the Black Widow that is here, Agent Romanov, she is the second of herself to arrive as well. Obviously, it can make things rather confusing.

[Her smile takes on more a tone of relief, as she looks at her brother now. Relief that he was not some other Pietro, one from the various different worlds that apparently exist out there. No, it was her brother that she was sharing drinks with, and for that she allows for a shred of gratitude to the Atroma.]

[ He takes in all of this information, watching Wanda solemnly. Dealing with Ultron, being taken here..those she's familiar with trickling in later. It can't have been easy for her. He knows Wanda is more than capable of taking care of herself, but she shouldn't have had to do it alone. ]

[ Two Starks, two Romanovs.. ] Did they recall their time here from before?

[ It's something he'd like to know, in the off-chance that it happens to him. Will he forget, or will it simply be business as usual? Not that he wants to go anywhere. Pietro is solidly where he belongs, now. Avengers aside. ]

[Wanda shakes her head no.]

When they returned, it was like their first time arriving all over again. However, there have been some in the fleet that have disappeared for some time and returned with their memories intact. Often, they even apparently have new memories from home.

[A sad look crosses Wanda's eyes, but that's the only clue Pietro will get as to her personal experience in the matter.]
