[Video: Thursday Morning, Week 21]

[genoshas_general]

Wanda is hardly happy to find herself naked in a pod. She’s even less happy that this is the second time in six weeks she’s found herself in an alien environment without prior warning.]

[She’s dressed now, though, and she’s got her communicator on. She’s not exactly smiling, but she looks much further from smashing everything in sight than she feels]

This is getting ridiculous. I’m the Scarlet Witch. Does that mean anything to anybody? [That echoes in her ears for a few seconds before she realizes how stuck up it sounds.] That’s not what I meant. [deep breath]

What I mean is: My name is Wanda Maximoff. I’m a mutant. From Genosha. [She takes another look around her surroundings.] Which is a country on Earth. I… [Wanda does not have much experience socializing outside an island nation ruled by her father, and her discomfort as she tries to figure out what a proper greeting sounds like is obvious.] Who else was abducted by aliens? [It’s a start]

Scarlet witch? [Briar scratches his head] What sort've magic's that? Because somehow I don't think that you've got magic over the colour red.

And what do you mean, 'mutant'? [He'd heard that term before, from Tris and Nico, though he hadn't paid much attention to it. But he'd gotten the impression that 'mutant' referred to creatures gone wrong, not people.]

Genosha? I've never even heard of a country by that name.

[She looks a little skeptical, though that might just be due to the initial greeting.]

What year are you from?

[Locked: Video] (Also =DDD I am excite!)

[For a moment, the screen lurches around fast enough that the background is only a sickening blur. There's muffled talking and the occasional odd beeping sound in the background. Then a strangely familiar face appears. Except he's far too young, and so thin and pale that it can't be healthy, even for him. Pietro is gaping at the viewscreen.]

I- But- You- How- Wanda?!

[His voice squeaked a little, a mixture of surprise, fear, and disbelief.]

No, you're not- who are you?

[Yes, he knows about the alternate realities thing, but his brain isn't quite keeping up its normal pace right now.]

Whoah.

[Have a kid version of the Toad staring at you, Wanda. He's peering at you like you might be some kind of scientific specimen. One that's potentially poisonous.]

So you're Wanda.

[Kurt's using his image inducer, as he usually does on unsecured channels when he's got video on. Shouldn't be a problem, after all. Wanda's seen him with his human face on plenty of times.]

Wow, und I thought running into that younger take on the professor was weird. What's the future like?

[He's had so much weirdness lately he'll just role with this one. And hope she's not in a mood to try to murder him right now.]

[Mordin's appearance is probably not the most reassuring thing in the world if she's worried about being abducted by aliens. But she said the magic word.]

Mutant? Fascinating.
