[Wanda's mostly on the network to message specific people, but she figures she may as well check in while she's at. Not that she knows what to say.] How is everyone doing? It seems like we've had a period of relative peace since I left for that trip.

[Private to Kerra]

Monday in the early afternoon. Meet me there.

[Private to Mulan]

I'm holding a small meeting for people interested in being more proactive than the militia. Monday afternoon, if you're interested.

[Private to Indrani and Haruka]

I don't know that you know me, but I think you'd be interested in this: I'm holding a small meeting for people interested in being more proactive than the militia. Monday afternoon, if you're interested.

[Private to Tony Stark]

Mister Stark, I'm Wanda Maximoff. I've heard of you, even if you haven't heard of me. I know you're not doing nearly as much for the people here as you could be. I'd like to meet.

Private to Wanda

[erranthero]

Sure. What for?

[fotlenke]

[ Sigyn has never heard this woman's voice before now. Which is plausible, as Sigyn has yet to meet everyone upon Verdana that there is to meet. The woman sounds cool, collected, and there is an air of diplomacy to the woman that Sigyn likens to her sister, Nanna. ]

Peace by the standards of war times, Strange Lady.

Rallying the troops.

[genoshas_general]

That's all we can expect right now.

I'm Wanda Maximoff. The Scarlet Witch.

[fotlenke]

[ Sigyn blinks, then grins. ]

A witch? Oh -- I have heard much of witches, but never one Scarlet, nor as lovely as you.

[erranthero]

Right, see you then.

[genoshas_general]

My position is a little unique. [She shifts a little.] It's not exactly an official title, if we're talking about magic. It's more... political.

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

Then you haven't been paying attention.

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

Really? I can't help but notice we're still alarmingly unarmed. If it's a question of raw materials, I can provide some to start with.

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

I'm out of the weapons game.

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

Then you're doing nearly as much as you could.

And you're lying.

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

And you're an idiot who doesn't do her homework. This conversation's a waste of my time.

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

You work for SHIELD. Since you 'quit' and went to work for them you've made, oh let's see... Quinn Jets, power armor, if I'm not mistaken a number of nonfatal weapons meant to subdue. I think Fury extorted a few of them out of you.

I assure you I've done my homework.

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

Oh. You should have told me we were wandering down Paranoid Delusion Avenue. I would've brought my coat. Are the rabbits on the corner watching you, or are you not quite that far along yet?

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

You're denying it? [He can't see the eyebrow raise, but he should have no problem hearing the frustration in her voice.]

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

Yeah. Because it isn't true.

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

...It isn't? [She sounds genuinely confused. Stark is abrasive, this isn't new to her, but this is not the reaction she'd expect even if he did want to deny it. Unless he's being honest, which is an odd concept to her.] You didn't?

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

I've been working on clean energy since I shut down our weapons division. I don't know who's designing SHIELD's hardware, but they're not getting it from me.

[And if they're gathering the black market tech he hasn't been able to track down, he and Fury are going to have words.

Unless...]

Strange question. What year is it for you? The last one you remember, I mean.

private;

[girlworthfighting]

Sounds very much like something I'd be interested in.

[Audio | Private]

[genoshas_general]

It's two thousand and eight. [Not all that strange, she supposes.]

[Audio | Private]

[nodavinci]

And there we have it. Welcome to the wonderful world of parallel dimensions.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say you and SHIELD aren't friends, back where you come from.

[fotlenke]

[ Sigyn's mouth opens in an 'o' and she nods. ] Then you are a diplomat.

video.

[genoshas_general]

In a sense, I am. [A very broad sense.]

Either way, the title doesn't mean much here.

[Video, Private]

[iwanttosettheworldonfire]

[She doesn't put down the gun she's breaking down for cleaning to answer, so the video jitters. She's still rather amused by the ready availability of the things, and it's nice to have the option to look someone in the eye remotely.]

Kay. Sounds fun. I like your hair.

[fotlenke]

You are wrong. It means importance in Verdana. It means that you are someone who knows politics and the dealings of enemies and victors. You are an integral part of Verdana, Lady Witch.
