Who: Wanda Maximoff
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Drade, if you want
When: After the Shuffle

[Wanda's idly toying with what looks like a bright blue apple while she talks. Welcome to life in space, apparently. She's both intrigued and not quite sure she trusts it, like many of the things here. But at least Drade, strange as it is, is open. She doesn't particularly care for confined spaces like the ships.]

I have only been here a little while and already I hear so many stories about the mists. If you've gone exploring, what did you see?

[She's sure someone must have, especially given some of the whispers she's heard of treasure. That doesn't appeal to her as much, but she is curious. And more than a little weirded out. Mist that can drive someone to madness? It's not the same thing at all, not really, but it does feel unsettlingly close to home.]

[There is something there, Thor knows. A kind of understanding that only comes with experiencing loss on such a grand scale. Asgard was a whole world but so was Sokovia to Wanda. It's enough for him to nod, accepting the offer for what it is.]

Thank you. It is not an easy thing to speak of, but it's ever on my mind. I will let you know.

[But they are here in the Fleet, and Wanda's new. So he tips his head to the side and follows up with a question.]

What ship did you end up on?

[seeingscarlet]

[She's not going to push him - it had been weeks before she'd been able to even mention Pietro without her throat tightening or tears threatening to spill.]

The Tourist. It's a strange name for a ship. Aren't we all tourists?

[It's a small attempt to lighten the mood. Wanda hadn't meant to accidentally say something so loaded.]

[rebuildyourruins]

Well, that would imply that we chose to visit, wouldn't it? [And Thor is continually adamant that he did not choose this, thank you.] Besides, Wonderduck is worse.

[seeingscarlet]

Wonderduck?

[Well, that's one way to lighten the mood. Wanda can't help but laugh.]

I'm sorry.

[rebuildyourruins]

Oh, don't worry, that's not mine. I'm on Blue Fish. It is not much more impressive but at least it doesn't sound stupid.

[Which, frankly, Wonderduck does.]
