I've been asking myself the same question for the past year, ever since... this other witch explained it to me. I always had magic, according to her, I just didn't know it. When Pietro and I were exposed to the Mind Stoneβ
[pausing, wanda makes a face. that needs an explanation, doesn't it? she waves her hand in front of her head for a moment, dismissively.]
One of six cosmic stones. [anyway] It basically made us more "in-tune" with our powers. [here, she does air quotes with the hand that's holding the glass of wine.] Even more scary is that my existence was written in this old magical book, but I have no idea why Pietro's power was different from mine.
[wanda looks down at the ground for a moment, and smiles. usually, it's difficult to speak of pietro, but she's glad that julie has somehow become this person that wanda can so freely talk to. it's nice, to talk about her brother and remember him fondly rather than sadly, even if the pain remains close to her heart.
she nods a few times.]
Yeah. Yeah. I know who Usain Bolt is. [her gaze returns to julie] Pietro was a lot faster than that. Perhaps I should cut him some slack; he would hate that I am describing him so poorly.
[it's interesting, regardless, to hear about these two places she hasn't been to. she got an impression back in the summit, but it would probably not compare to how they actually are.
wanda nudges at julie's dangling foot with her own.]
I'm not very good at expressing myself, but β I just want to say thank you, for letting me talk about Pietro. It's nice to remember him, and imagine that if he would be summoned here, he would totally ditch me in Solvunn to be in the Cities, from what it sounds like.
