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.]

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.
