Welcome to my one-year anniversary. [Pause as she realizes maybe she should clarify that. Not a relationship thing.] Of being with the Fleet. Feels like it should come with a badge of some kind. Who hands those out? We're in a special club now, right? Secret handshake? Extra meal portions?

Anyway, I figured it was maybe time to try something different. So... Raise your hand if you'd be interested in attending a dance class if I taught one. And by raise your hand I mean call me back. I don't have surveillance set up in all the rooms yet. [She's kidding. She's probably kidding.] If anyone is in I'll set up a room for it on the Iskaulit. [Or maybe find the secret studio the previous Natasha had.]

[Kitty is poking around some of the empty spaces on the Iskaulit, but she might pop into some of the more established establishments too while she's there.]

Comments

[passingthrough]

He rotates his generosity so it's definitely not always in t-shirt form. [She smiles fondly. She loves him so much.]

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[She gives Kitty a knowing look with a wry smile returning to her lips.]

Oh? What sort of other forms of generosity should I be worried about? Expecting, I mean.

[passingthrough]

For you? I'm not sure. I get girlfriend perks.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

So you have no idea what I'm in for then? Some inside help you are.

[She crosses her arms in fake frustration, but the smile never leaves her mouth.]

[passingthrough]

Well, it's specialized. He might build you something you need or oh...I got it. Super suit.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Another look of momentary shock flashes over Wanda's face. At the mention of a "super suit," she immediately, involuntarily pictures Steve in his Captain America regalia. Picturing herself in something similar, well... yeah, that didn't quite compute.]

He... can do that? He knows how to make a "super suit?"

[passingthrough]

He made me one. And Kate. Actually, he kind of made me two if you count the Captain America uniform I wore for Halloween.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda squints at Kitty for a moment, trying to remember the Halloween uniform she's referring to. Had that been during part of the time she was under? It was hard to keep track. She cannot recall.]

He is... open to "suggestions" right?

[i.e. no star-spangled anything for Wanda, please.]

[passingthrough]

Oh, of course. I doubt he'd do something with no input. As long as you mean using your words. [And not mental suggestions.]

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda quirks an eyebrow for a moment, attempting to discern Kitty's meaning. But then it registers, and she shakes her head with a dismissive grin.]

Would not dream of anything so ulterior.

[Although... now that Kitty has put that idea into her head... well, she'll consider that a last resort -- only if it looks like she's going to also be sporting the stars and bars.]

Figuring the other three threads can be done where they are.

[passingthrough]

Then it's should be all good. He'll probably something red with an optional witch's hat.

Totally okay. Were good ending spots. ;)

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda tilts her head, and her eyes narrow a little in a look of slightly annoyed confusion.]

Why a witch's hat?


[Up to this point, she still has yet to have heard of her other selves' moniker, "The Scarlet Witch."]

[passingthrough]

Because he usually plays off the codename? I had a little cat for Shadowcat and Hawkeye got a hawk, so just guessing what he'd do for the Scarlet Witch.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

"Scarlet Witch?"

[One of her eyebrows quirks upwards.]

Is that MY "codename?"

[passingthrough]

Am I in immediate physical danger if I say yes?

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda snorts at that, shaking her head no.]

Of course not.

I am only wondering when we decided coming up with codenames, and who it was that chose "Scarlet Witch" to be mine.

[passingthrough]

You don't think it was you? Sorry, I don't know the story. Or the story from my world anyway. Kurt might.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda's mouth opens and closes once or twice as she tries to find the words to express what she's currently feeling. A sort of mix between pride, confusion and annoyance.]

So, you are saying I decided on the codename "Scarlet Witch?"

Or, at least the version of me from your world did?

[passingthrough]

Well, I'm not sure. I just know I picked mine, so I figured you did, but it sounds like lots of people don't. What would you pick?

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda opens her mouth to respond, but then closes it without saying a word. Well, she had not quite counted on the tables being turned like that. What even would she pick?]

I thought maybe it was something you and Winn decided on? Give people in the Fleet codenames.

[It did sound like something they'd do. She's quiet for a moment as she tries to think of an answer to Kitty's question.]

I guess... Scarlet Witch is fine...

[She did like the "Scarlet" part. It was the "Witch" part she was uncertain of.]

[passingthrough]

He gave himself one, but I think that's it as far as I know.

[She smiles.] Well, you don't have to stick with it just because I mentioned it. Maybe you're supposed to be the Emerald Enchantress back home. [Not that "emerald" would make as much sense.]

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Wanda makes a face at that suggestion. "Emerald Enchantress?" Yeah, no. "Scarlet Enchantress?" That didn't sound right either. Somehow, the more she thought on it, the better "Scarlet Witch" sounded.]

Scarlet Witch is fine.

[She repeats herself. This time with notably more confidence than before.]

But that does not mean I am wearing a witch's hat!

[passingthrough]

I'm sure Winn can be flexible with the thing you'd be wearing and not him.

[notmutantbutmiracle]

Wait, so he is actually making an outfit for me?

[passingthrough]

No. This is still all still very hypothetical.
