*~Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff Headcanons~*


-Before the shell hit, Wanda would attend dance classes every day. She wanted to be a dancer when she grew up.

-Wanda's a mutant (canon) but the ways her powers manifested was through exposure to the Mind Gem.

-While a part of HYDRA, she had some training under the Winter Soldier. She'd rather forget those experiences...

-She's actually really good at billiards.

-She doesn't like to swim. She had a near-death experience while homeless in Sokovia where she tried to outrun a couple men she accidentally angered and they tried to drown her when they reached a lake. It's thanks to Pietro she's still alive.

-After Sokovia, she picked up guitar and painting as a hobby. It turns out she's good at both.

-She has a ring that she refuses to part with: it was given to her by her twin brother Pietro on the last birthday they shared together. Whenever she's having bad anxiety, she keeps it close.

-She may not look like it but she enjoys video games. Her favorite game is Portal 2.

-She's a vegetarian (that's canon but I just wanted to say it).

-She came up with her superhero name after reading a book about witches her mother had owned and while at first, she wasn't sure about taking up a big mantle, with the help of her brother, she decided to use it. That's why she's incredibly picky if someone pronounces it wrong.

-Her favorite non-combat thing to do with her powers is to reach for things she'd have to get up to grab (yes, even she has that issue from time to time).

-She has a black cat named Jinx, a white cat named Zapada, and a Boston Terrier named Gizmo.

-She doesn't remember anything before age 10 but she has a pretty good suspicion it has to do use mutants and the X-Men.

-Surprisingly, she's actually really good at pranks. In fact, she had pulled a few at Avengers Compound but everyone blamed Clint because she had disguised it so well. (Sorry, Clint.)

-She's also good at chess.

-She's grown interested and has started to study dream patterns and sequences. If anyone has a dream they would like to have interpreted, they can come to her.

-She knows English, French, and Sokovian but she's currently learning Russian.

-During the brief period of time where she was a part of the Brotherhood of Mutants, she had grown close to her father. It was such a great relationship that he felt comfortable telling her about his time in the concentration camp as a young boy. At her request, he even brought her to Auschwitz, which was extremely difficult for him. She won't tell anyone this but while there, he broke down into tears and she held him while he cried.

-She's extremely good at reading people even when they are trying to hide their emotions from her. She's even been able to read Steve, Natasha, and Bucky from the slightest movement or brief change of look in their eyes. She can do this without her powers.

-She enjoys baking and it's not uncommon for her to make baskets or plates for others. Her favorite thing to bake is snickerdoodle cookies, a recipe she brought from Sokovia and something she and her mother loved to bake.

-She's glad to have Pietro (@BulletProof) back. When he died, it literally felt like her heart and soul had been taken out of her body but when he returned, that part came back to her. She is severely concerned about him, though, as to what has happened to him and what changed him.

-Wanda wishes she could talk more with Peter Parker (@Webhead). They're around the same age and she's interested in learning how a teen in the US is different compared to a teen in Sokovia.

-She isn't sure if Bucky (@WhiteWolf18) remembers that they meant in the past or not. Considering how often his memory has been wiped, probably not. It's probably best he doesn't remember. Whenever he's in full-on Winter Soldier mode, it secretly terrifies her because of what had happened in HYDRA.

-Wanda was at first extremely cautious of Victor von Doom (@TheLordOfLatveria) but she's slowly growing to realize that he actually isn't as bad as it all seems...as long as he can put that massive ego aside at times.

-She's extremely grateful for how helpful Doctor Stephen Strange (@DrStrange) has been to her with wanting to assist her with her powers. She feels like they have slightly similar backstories, something drastic happening to change their lives by removing people or things they value most and causing them to need to have a totally different outlook on things. She knows she'd definitely like to get to know him better.

-Though shocked at first at finding out that Luce (@YoungWitch) was her daughter (long, confusing story. Don't ask), she's quickly shaped up to be a motherly figure for her and even though she may not show it at all times, she's actually very proud of how far she was able to get on her own with her abilities and she's extremely curious and excited to see where she'll end up.

-Though they started out as enemies, she has started to develop what she hopes is a longstanding friendship with Rogue (@Untouchable). She feels like the two of them could bond over some stuff, at the very least the both of them being mutants. She's grateful that Rogue has given her the opportunity to teach dance at the X-Mansion.

-Needless to say, Wanda is still a bit wary of Loki (@Godess). However, that's the same with a lot of people. She has found her instruction, though brief, to be extremely helpful and she finds herself going back to some of her lessons when it comes to bettering her magic. She hopes that she stays around for a bit.

-Wanda still can't get over how adorable Baby Groot (@Baby_Groot) is. He never fails to make her smile, even when she was in the middle of an incredibly depressed state. She's glad for the time she's gotten to spend with him.

-One of the closest people she's gotten to on the Avengers is, without a doubt, Natasha (@Oktober). They've bonded through a lot of things and she definitely wouldn't be where she was, emotionally, physically, and mentally, without her support. She'd take a bullet for her without even thinking about it. She'd extremely thankful for the training she's been given and hopes that she can become a fraction of a great spy that she sees Nat as.

-Jade (@JCSDarkDusk) was someone Wanda didn't imagine herself spending a lot of time with at first but she's glad she's gotten to know her. They've helped each other with different mental-related things and thanks to her, she feels like she has an idea about the part of her memory she can't remember for some reason.

-Wanda doesn't understand Rocket's (@RocketTheRaccoon) fascination with Bucky's arm. It confuses her and even though she doesn't know why she just has a feeling that she should keep him from getting it. Other than that, she sees him as a sarcastic person...er, raccoon, and at this point, isn't even phased that there's talking plants and animals.

-Needless to say, Wanda dislikes SR (@CaptainFineAss) with a passion, and not just because of his work with HYDRA, though that's a huge part of it. She does have empathy for his situation however that doesn't change how she feels for him. She still stands by her word that if she hears that he hurt Bucky while he was captured by HYDRA, she's going to go after him with a vengeance. And it won't be pretty.

-Amongst all the mutants and superheroes and villains, it's refreshing having someone who just sees you as a person. That person for Wanda is Darcy (@Darcy_Lewis). She's never had a sister before and quite enjoys letting Darcy dress her up. She still doesn't understand American fashion to a full extent but with her help, she thinks she's getting a good idea of what it's like.

-One of the biggest things about Steve (@SuperSoldier) that Wanda admires about him is his selflessness. The way he will put other people before him and make sure they're safe before taking care of himself. She feels like she's adopted that a lot in the way she works as an Avenger and he's probably the person she most trusts to call the shots right behind Bucky. She has been inspired by his speeches before and she would follow him into any kind of battle, even if it was a suicide mission.

-Wanda and Amora (@amoratheenchantress) have had their scuffles in the past. They weren't pretty and more often than not, resulting in a lot of damage being caused with little reward. However, Wanda's trying to look past that and while she still is watchful of her, she admires her work with magic. She hopes that they get to talk more in the future.

ScarletWarrior @WhiteWolf18 Only as the Winter Soldier, Bucky. I much prefer you as you are now.
@TheLordOfLatveria Yes, I dare suggest it, Victor. What are you going to do about it?

ScarletWarrior *She smirked as she raised an eyebrow.* "Latveria needs someone to balance you out."

ScarletWarrior @WhiteWolf18 "I know that, Bucky. Which is why I'm always alert and I want to do whatever I can to stop that from happening again, permanently."
@TheLordOfLatveria "I feel like that is a dig at me. Except the first time I came to Latveria, /you/ invited me. Remember?"

ScarletWarrior *Wanda chuckled softly.* "As if I had a choice. Let's see how you'd do when you have the entire Hungarian military after your ass when you're just simply trying to pass through."

ScarletWarrior "I /am/ doing that now but I was at a bit of a low point. Who could blame me, Victor? Before I was wary of my powers again. Now, not so much."
