nothingmorehorrifying: (Young and insolent)

Wanda quietly notes, however, that Tony doesn't deny the existence of a midlife crisis. Just that the hair isn't an attendant side effect. She's prepared with a waspish remark to that effect when Tony starts to speak and then to ramble and then to crack. It's not an unfamiliar sight but it's one she usually sees directed at Steve or at the group.

It also takes her a second to piece together a reference to pop cultural moment that happened half a world away. When she was twelve.

She also can't deny anything Tony says, just sits there for a moment, thinking. She's surprised at her own sincerity when she finally does speak. "I know you don't think we're on the same team anymore. But I also don't know why you think it has to be you alone."

Not that Wanda thinks she ought to be the second name on the adoption form. The implications and age differences in both directions are simply alarming but the Avengers took her in didn't they?
