[ the very loaded question wanda has always loathed. she doesn't quite know if she's okay, but she knows that she's alive. that's got to count for something even if this town's trying to rip them all wide open from the very beginning. ]
I'm okay. Better now that I know I have someone to bully Dean with.
[ there's so much time they have to make up for. ]
Are you okay?
Is it wrong to say I'm glad you're here? I can take it back if it is.
[It's a shitty empty question, tbf. Are any of them okay? Absolutely not. So simply being alive is probably a pretty good answer right now. Sam will accept just about any answer, though. Wanda is interesting and he enjoys her company. Plus she's the only girl he can talk to right now without getting in trouble or having an intervention staged behind his back so. You know. Whatever.]
I don't think that's wrong. I don't have anywhere else to be and like you said, now that the dream team is back together everything is perfect.
Though we should probably lay off him for a little while, it's his time of the month.
[ even without standing in front of him, she can sense that something's off. he's very blasé. perhaps this is sam when he's upset with dean. she's not surprised if they've bumped heads over something; she remembers bumping heads with pietro over the simplest and biggest things. stress levels would be higher than normal, the trench has been strange in ways wanda hasn't been able to anticipate. ]
My house from Deerington is here. Not quite a shit hole, either. But I'll keep it in mind when it gets too quiet. The cabin was always so loud whenever I dropped by.
You're always welcome to come here whenever you need some space.
[ no more being driven up walls if it can be helped. ]
Not too far. We're in Ache but this teleport by lantern thing makes it all pretty easy. If you've set down a lantern I think I can travel straight to that.
How many times have you teleported by the lantern?
[ it's not something she's chosen to do. there doesn't seem to be a point with how she can not only fly but manipulate the world around her. but perhaps it would be fun... ]
[ despite his confidence, she's worried. this is magic that she can't control. if anything goes wrong, she's not entirely sure she can fix it immiediately.
but thinking like that will only make it happen. instead, she tries to be confident herself.
after a minute: ]
I have.
[ she's set it outside, around the area where she thinks the border of her property is. it's subtle how the grass seems to differ, but wanda feels that there's a thin line that she can cross where it feels less like home. ]
You'll be outside of my house. Hopefully it won't be too disorienting.
[And true to word he won't. He just grabs a few bottles from the stash (sorry Dean, not sorry at all) and heads to their lantern to focus on the one that feels the most like Wanda.
It's weird tech, (okay, it's magic..) but once you get the hang of it the whole thing is pretty easy. It reminds Sam of the flue network in Harry Potter. Shut up.
Way less jolting than teleportation in his own world was.
But whatever, enjoy Wanda there is a large wild man thing at the edge of your property and he comes bearing gifts.]

Is he having trouble adjusting to the Trench?
[ she wouldn't blame him. going from one deer town to another would be unsettling for just about anyone. ]
no subject
No this place is like Disneyland compared to where he comes from. Not sure what's up his ass but he sure doesn't want to talk about it.
no subject
Did you two have a fight?
no subject
Has he said anything to you?
no subject
[ as any sibling would say, she thinks. wanda still wishes pietro would appear each and every day. ]
That all the Sams are here, but I imagine he's particularly grateful for you.
[ watch out, wanda's the wannabe comedy witch. ]
no subject
He hasn't been acting grateful but who knows. If you get a clue let me know because it's driving me up the wall.
In other much more exciting news, our cabin is here and isn't a shit hole anymore. If you ever need a place. Have you found a place to stay?

Careful, Wanda. If you give a moose a muffin...]
I might take you up on that. where are you?

5 or 6? But only between major lamp locations. I think it works with personal ones too, though.
no subject
If you're worried, I can always try and turn our locations into major lamp locations.
[ #scarletwitch 😎 ]
no subject
Oof and have both our houses become major commuting hubs for the city? Hard pass.
Have you set down your lantern yet? I'm not worried. I'm feeling lucky

It won't be now, thanks for the head's up.
When's good?
no subject
no subject
No but what about you?
I'm around now if you want. I'll bring a bottle of something?
no subject
[ she has nowhere to go, no one to particularly see. it's isolation in a much kinder way than her cabin had been. ]
Do you have anything spicy in a bottle?
no subject
I've got red wine and a local thing that's supposed to be similar to whiskey.
I could put a jalapeno in it?
no subject
Don't tell anyone; they'll want to join our very cool and exclusive party.
no subject
Not a soul. I promise :)
