Every single time I look back at my failures, the steps I've taken that have led me down a less-than-ideal path... the mistakes I've made that weigh heavily on my mind, I remember one thing that eases my guilt. That any low I have fallen to or may fall to, I know I will never fumble the bag as hard as this jackass:
Tumblr media
Actual fucking dumbass. This douche had Mizu herself giving up her path of revenge to settle down and rear horses with him. She loved him, actually fucking loved him and gave herself wholeheartedly, and he gets scared 'cuz his badass bride wiped the floor with him in a spar.
Remember folks, you can fail as many times in this godforsaken life we have, but you will never be as big of a failure as this dick.

this is the second time I've made chicken paprikash, and it was even better this time around!
Tumblr media
this time I added bell peppers, garlic, and cayenne pepper - and I used a non-stick pan, so it was both easier to make and tastier to eat! :D

Wanda Maximoff x GN! Reader
Warnings: Fluff

18+ MINORS DNI
Y/N's recovery was slow, but they had a whole family to help them. The twins kept them entertained with stories from school and some things that Pietro had taught them. Wanda glared at her brother as Y/N only chuckled, thanking him for being there for the three of them.
"Are you ready to go home today?" Wanda asked as she started to pack their things.
"I guess, the apartment isn't exactly suitable for this situation." They told her honestly, looking down at their casted leg and arm.
"I thought we talked about this." Wanda queried as Y/N shook their head.
"We only said that the divorce was off." They told her. "Besides, we haven't really had a private moment alone to talk further."
"Well, I guess now is as good as any." Wanda smiled as she zipped up the bag. "I figured you would want to come back home and live with the kids and I? But if you think otherwise that's ok." Y/N smiled lovingly as she rambled on. "I guess we can put the bed back in the basement, you know the one you had in case of an emergency."
"I would love to come home Wanda." Y/N told her softly. "The apartment was never my home, you and the boys were always my home."
"Good." She breathed. "I guess I was just nervous, but we will have to figure out work and getting out of the lease."
"I can figure all of that out when we are home." They told her. "I'll call Pepper and then maybe we can think more on your bookshop ideas."
"What?" Wanda questioned.
"Your bookshop. You still want to open it right?" They asked her as she nodded. "Then we can look at affordable locations, talk taxes and all other expenses. Maybe even look at suppliers too."
"You want to help?" Wanda asked them as they just nodded.
"Well, it's not like I am returning to work anytime soon." Y/N chuckled as Wanda just kissed them passionately, pulling away and resting her head on theirs.
"You have no idea how much I love you." She whispered breathlessly as Y/N pecked her lips once more.
"I love you more." They smiled as she gazed in their eyes.
"Let's get you home before the twins send out a search party." She told them as she moved the wheel chair to the edge of the bed. Aiding them in their movement and finally realising just how much weight they had lost. "The twins are looking forward to you being home. They have a whole movie night planned out."
"I can't wait." They smiled as Wanda wheeled them out of the hospital.
"Also mom is making her famous chicken paprikash for you too." Wanda told them, knowing it is one of their favourite meals.
"I have missed that." Y/N whispered as Wanda smiled.
"I haven't cooked it since you moved out." She whispered as they approached the car. Bucky waiting for the two as he helped Y/N in the passenger seat before folding the wheel chair and putting it in the trunk.
The journey was quiet as Y/N tried to keep their heart beat at a steady rate. The nerves of being back in a car was taking it's toll as they soon closed their eyes. Taking deep breaths as they thought of anything else. Wanda noticed this and started to sing the lullaby she used to sing to the twins. A smile soon formed on Y/N's face as they remembered the first time they heard her sing it. Coming home from work earlier than usual to her holding Billy who just gazed up at her as Tommy lay, sleeping soundly in his crib.
"We're here." Bucky stated as he turned off the engine and unbuckled his seatbelt. Pietro was already out of the door to help Y/N out of the car. Wanda grabbed the bag and followed as Pietro and Bucky lifted them up the porch steps.
"O'pa's here!!" The twins bellowed excitedly as Y/N smiled at them, loving the atmosphere they have created alone.
"We have snacks." Billy started.
"Your favourites!" Tommy chimed in as the adults laughed.
"We have refreshments too." Pietro teased in the same tone as the twins, handing Y/N a cup of coffee.
"Thank you." They smiled as everyone else moved to do their tasks.
"They have been excited since you woke." Pietro told them as Wanda disappeared to help her mom. "They missed you so much."
"I missed them." Y/N spoke quietly. "I guess this is something we needed to become a family again." Y/N joked as Pietro shook his head.
"I think whether or not you had a car accident, you and Wanda would have found your way back to each other one day." He told them as he helped them into the bed, which was positioned to give them a prime view of the whole room. Watching as the twins fought on which movie to put on first.
"How about we have a Shrek marathon?" Y/N spoke up as the twins soon nodded excitedly. Setting up the first movie as they waited for their dinner.
Wanda sat on the chair beside Y/N as the twins sat on the floor beside the bed. Not wanting to be away from Y/N for too long. Pietro, Iryna and Bucky all sat on the sofa as everyone watched the movie together, until Wanda's eyes soon found Y/N's.
"A family is forever." They whispered to her making her smile widen as she shook her head at them before taking their bowls away. Pietro helped her with the cleaning before he took Iryna home.
As they had finished watching the third movie, the twins were starting to fall asleep on the floor.
"Come on you two." Wanda spoke softly as she paused the movie. "Bedtime."
"No." They whined as Y/N smiled brightly, ignoring the pain in their cheeks.
"Yes." Wanda told them both. "O'pa will still be here tomorrow." The two bid goodnight as Wanda took away the rubbish as Y/N sighed loudly, causing Wanda to turn abruptly. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." They told her with a smile. "I am just, this is the happiest I have been in a very long time." Wanda only smiled as she retreated to the kitchen, grabbing their meds and a fresh bottle of water.
"Here." She whispered as she passed them the meds and water. "I'm just going to shower and get dressed and I will be right back down."
"You can go to bed if you want to." Y/N told her as she smirked.
"I will be going to bed." She told them. "Remember, the sofa pulls out much better than you." She teased as they just laughed at her.
The two of them had felt the lightest they had felt in a very long time. There was no resentment or hatred brewing. The two only felt the love for each other which grew stronger with each passing moment and Y/N had made a silent promise. Sending in their resignation to Pepper, preferring to help Wanda in her shop instead. Also promising to make sure that she knows how beautiful and amazing she is everyday. Something they had neglected to do in the past as they worked endless hours for Stark Industries

I have to find my girl.. Scarlet witch! Hi I would absolutely love a scarlet witch fic where the reader female gets lost in the multi verse or something I just wanna see her rip apart everything for her haha!
𝐑𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞
pairing: Wanda Maximoff x (gender neutral) Reader
summary: reader was thrown into the multiverse by Kang, but Wanda is willing to rip right through it to get them back
warnings: angst, mentions of violence and murder
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You try to keep your voice steady, even as your entire body waivers with emotion. Joy at the woman you love finding you again. Terror at what she had become, at what she had done to get here.
“I tore through worlds for you” Wanda seethes. “I ripped right through the multiverse just to get to you!”
You’re almost frightened by her tone. Her voice and her body is shaky with a barely contained rage.
“I know” you try stay calm but there’s an edge of fear lacing your tone. “But look at what you did in the process” you plead. “You hurt people. You killed people Wanda.”
Wanda smiles, a sad and somehow sinister smile; it frightened you.
“I only did what I needed to to get to you, my love” her eyes are wild as she attempts to reach for you.
But you take a step back, her tainted fingertips landing on nothing as you duck from her grasp. She see the flinch that rolls through your body, the pure fear in your eyes as you look at her. Wanda’s eyes grow larger and you can start to see the realisation seep into her system.
“You’re afraid of me?” She whispers with a croak.
“I’m afraid of what the darkhold has done to you” you breathe shakily.
More tears stream down her cheeks as she looks at you in despair. The next thing you know Wanda is falling to her knees in front of you, a sob wracking through her chest. Her arms wrap around her body, as if she was barely keeping herself held together.
“I’m sorry” she whimpers. “I’m so sorry, I- I never meant to hurt anyone. I just wanted to get back to you. I’m- I’m not a monster. I’m not a monster” she rambles quietly, almost more to herself than to you.
Your heart breaks as you look at the woman you loved. The woman who had once been so happy and carefree, dancing and signing around your shared kitchen as paprikash cooked on the stove. Now here she was, corrupted. Bloody. Broken. But through it all, behind those teary eyes, you catch a glimpse of her, of who she used to be. Of who she really was, beyond the grip of the darkhold. You knew you could get back to her, get her back to you, if she would just let herself be free of the darkhold.
You take a tentative step forward, slowly sinking to your knees in front of Wanda. She looks almost as afraid as you as she brings her eyes to meet yours. You look at her steadily, gently reaching out to hold one her hands in yours. She squeezes your fingers as she looks at you imploringly. Your other hand tentatively reaches out to touch her cheek.
“You have to let the darkhold go, Wanda” you cup her face gently, stroking her tears away with your thumb. “I’m here now.”

Safe and Sound
Summary: yn returns home to the twins and Her wife Wanda from a mission injured and Wanda gets frustrated with her recklessness.Includes fluff and angst.
This is my first ever fic so there may be a lot of rambling and mistakes but here’s to improving!
I hope you guys enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it.Please be sure to leave any feedback or let me know what you would like me to write next.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Tumblr media
“Shit..” hands clutching your side as you practically fall out of your car, parked on the snow clad driveway of the home that you shared with your beautiful wife Wanda and your twin boys Tommy and billy.
You had just returned from a mission which you had only agreed to go on under the false pretence that it would last two days at most but here you were battered and bruised two months later finally back home.
As much as you should have remained at the med bay at least overnight you had managed to sneak out and drive back home with a bit of help from Natasha. She knew how much being away from Wanda and the boys was killing you. Natasha had always been able to read you like a book perhaps because she could see a lot of herself in you; both of you had never had a stable family all your life so she knew how important it was for you to protect the stability that you have created with Wanda.Plus she knew that you had survived far worse than broken ribs before.
So here you were fumbling around in your pocket trying to find your keys to open the door to your home.”finally….stupid key.” You mutter under your breath. Pushing the door open you step inside and straighten yourself up, effectively masking the pain in your right side and make your way into the house.
You can hear some cartoons playing on the tv coming from the living room; SpongeBob of course, the boys favourite.The smell of homemade paprikash fills your senses as you walk further into the home, closer to the kitchen where you can hear Wanda humming along to some song on the radio.leaning against the doorway you can’t help but admire your wife dressed in casual sweats and you notice that she’s wearing your hoodie; something she always does when your away with her hair pulled up into a messy bun. God have you missed her.
You stalk closer to her, still undetected and slip your arms around her waist.Feeling her flinch out of surprise but she instantly relaxes recognising your warmth;turning in your hold she looks at you surprise, relief and love clear on her face. ”Your home, I missed you so much baby” Wanda breathes out as her eyes fill with tears, before she can stop them they escape the confinement of her eyes.
“Hey…shhh don’t cry, I’m so sorry I was gone for so long; I would never have agreed to go if i knew it would last so long,” you say as you gently wipe the tears from her cheeks. Wanda wraps her arms around your neck, burying her face into your neck breathing in your familiar scent; you pull her in closer, staying silent; aware that she needs this time to collect her thoughts and believe that you are actually home and it isn’t her mind playing tricks.
The silence is cut short with excited screams; “BILLY!..Mums home, QUICK!!” Tommy comes sprinting into the kitchen. You let go of Wanda before kneeling down and open ring your arms wide, engulfing both your boys into a much needed hug. Ignoring the sharp pain that radiates through your side as Tommy and Billy both compete for a hug. The boys blissfully unaware of the pain growing in your side try to pull you to their room to show you the new toy that Wanda had got them whilst you were gone.
However, Wanda notices the grunt of pain and the way your face scrunches as you get up from your position on the floor, and decides to text Natasha asking her what happened. “Boys why don’t you go and wash your hands ready for dinner then you can show mum your new toys?” Wanda intercepts.
“But mummy, please we want mum to play with us, she promised she would play with us when she gets back home!” argues Tommy as Billy stands to the side, adorning a sad expression on his face.
You decide to interject “look boys if you listen to your mummy; then we can all go to the park tommorow; and how about a extra scoop of ice after dinner!” you try to bargain. The boys run off to the bathroom arguing about who gets the last scoop of chocolate flavoured ice cream, you shake your head “those boys and their ice cream”, you giggle as you turn back to Wanda.
Who now avoids your eyes a drastic change to minutes before. ”Your hurt.” She obviously states, you should have known she would notice; Wanda knows you better than you know yourself. She looks at you with a hard stare.
”Don’t worry I’m fine it’s just bruises, I’ve survived way worse” you attempt to reassure her stepping closer but to your surprise she takes a step back, “Don’t you dare lie to me yn, you were meant to stay at the med bay overnight, under observation!” she shouts as the tears return.
Natasha, of course. “Wanda, I…” You attempt to comfort her but before you can finish, the boys come back in having washed their hands; and Wanda harshly wipes the tears from her face turning to give Tommy and Billy their dinner. ” You should go clean up, I’ll leave your dinner in the microwave,” Wanda says coldly before you can reply she leaves the kitchen making her way to the dining room.
Defeatedly, you make your way upstairs to your bedroom looking around at the familiar space, your safe space. The only safe space you have ever had and you know it’s the same for Wanda too. She has lost so much in her life, everyone she has ever loved she has lost; first her parents, then Pietro. That’s why she gets so anxious, she doesn’t want to lose the family she has made with you. You on the other hand have always been alone, and never really had anything to lose but now you have everything to lose.
You freshen up, which doesn’t take long as Dr Cho had allready dressed your wounds at the compound before you snuck out.
Making your way downstairs, you see that Wanda and the boys are still in the dining room eating dinner, deciding to join them you take a seat at the dining table the seat next to Wanda opposite the boys, your designated seat.
You are greatful that the boys are oblivious of the awkwardness between their parents; telling you all about what they have been up to whilst you’ve been gone, how much they missed you and how they completed all their chores. Your attempts to engage with Wanda in conversation are in vain. She was right next to you but it felt as if she was in whole other world.
Dinner had been eaten and the dishes had been washed, now you were tucking your boys into bed as Wanda disappeared to your shared bedroom; giving you much needed one on one time with the twins. Tommys small voice interrupted the peaceful silence ”Mum, will you still be here tomorrow when we wake up?”, Billy also looked at you eyes filled with worry. You felt a heavy weight in your chest as guilt rushed over you, “of course buddy, i’m not leaving for that long again I pinky promise and you know I never ever break a pinky promise,” you held up your pinkies to Billy and Tommy which they reciprocated, feeling reassured, if only it was this easy with Wanda. ”I don’t like it when your gone mum and mummy doesn’t either, I think she cries too, her eyes are red and watery sometimes but I always give her extra cuddles because cuddles make everyone feel better” Billy adds.
Tommy is always loud and extroverted mind filled with thoughts of ice cream and toys like most other boys his age whereas Billy has always been a quite and observant boy, a true empath, just like Wanda. ”Your such a good boy billy, I’m sure mummy felt sooo much better with your cuddles, you give the bestest cuddles ever.” Kissing both the boys heads you turn off the light before leaving their room.
Making your way to your bedroom determined to make things right with Wanda, you notice that she is curled up under the covers on her side of the bed with her back facing you. Having already brushed your teeth you slip off your sweats and remove your hoodie, clad in just underwear and a large tshirt you slip into bed, you stare up at the cieling, the silence of the room thick as all you can hear are the occasional sniffles coming from Wanda. Deciding that you can’t take anymore you turn and move closer to Wanda, wrapping your arms around her waist pressing your chest to her back. Despite being frustrated by you not taking your health seriously, Wanda can’t help but relax under your feeling relieved that your home with her. She hasn’t been able to sleep properly the two months you’ve been gone, nightmares plaguing her dreams so she had been making do with short naps throughout the day. She can only sleep when your with her, it scares her how much she needs you, how much she craves your touch. She can’t live without you and you can’t live without her.
You feel relived that she’s letting you hold her, you gently move the hair that’s covering the back of her neck and rest your lips there breathing in her the scent. ”I’m so sorry Wanda, I know I should’ve listened to Dr Cho but I just wanted to be home with you and the boys, you guys are my medicine.” you whisper. Feeling Wanda turn in your arms, finally giving in, she stares into your eyes. The once cold stare is now warm, full of overwhelming love and care.
“Don’t apologise, I’m sorry I just worry so much yn…I can’t bare the thought of you being hurt and In pain, it’s frustrating when you don’t take things seriously, you think your invincible just like Pietro did…I can’t lose anyone else..”Wanda whimpers. You let out a shaky breath feeling angry at yourself for being so reckless, you have three people who need you now, you are not the lone, ruthless assassin that you once were. You can’t keep putting them through the turmoil of worrying whether you will be coming home in one piece or not.
You gently kiss Wanda, the feeling of her soft lips causing an eruption of butterflies in your stomach, even after almost a decade together it still feels like the first time. Silently you turn onto your back and Wanda rests her head on your chest, your heart beat instantly calming her. She tangle her legs with yours and clings onto you as if afraid you will stolen from her if she doesn’t, you rest your hands on her lower back as you hold her close.”I love you Wanda Maximoff yln, your the strongest person i know.” And finally Wanda drifts into a much needed peaceful slumber, safe and sound.

Word Count: 2,840
A/N: This is my first X Reader story so I apologize if I ramble or didn’t do so well
Tumblr media
(All Romanian/Sokoivan words or sentences will be in italics)
“I don’t know how in the hell they got the drop on us Y/N. I thought we had ‘em surrounded!” Clint stepped off the Quinn jet as you were in front of him.
“Why are you beating on this dead horse Clint? What? You wanna go back and ask the arms dealers how they got the drop or should I send a friendly email?” You had Kate Bishop laughing for the first time as she tagged along beside you. She didn’t warm up to you quite yet due to you being friends with Natasha’s sister Yelena Belova. You were happy though you made her smile. You weren’t so alone if you had a friend your age on the team.
“Oh, that was funny Kate? You were slipping your punches waiting for Y/N to tag in. I watched for the skyline!” All three of you guys got into the brand new compound for all the rest of the avengers.
“Take off your shoes guys! I just mopped the floors.” You take off your shoes seeing Wanda in the kitchen stirring a pot on the burner. You inhaled smelling all the exotic spices you smelt, your senses were in love.
“Whatcha making Wand? It smells yummy.” You darted over beside Wanda’s side seeing a red sauce-looking soup. She looked over her shoulder looking into your eyes. They sparkled matching her olive completion.
“I’m making Paprikash. Real paprikash that isn’t store-bought. That shit is terrible. Here taste.” She stirred around the sauce with a spoon lifting it to your mouth. Her hand is underneath so none will spill. You extend over opening your mouth. She moved the spoon closer lightly letting the bottom touch your tongue.
“Wow! That’s good Wanda. I can’t wait for dinner now.” You turned around going into the fridge for a bottle of water seeing there was none you grabbed a glass running the tab.
“Thank you detka. How was the mission? You look sore.” Wanda looked concerned like you were a wounded animal. She always gave you this look because you weren’t like all the rest of her teammates. They were either enhanced with powerful capabilities or trained to be soldiers/spies. You were just a civilian who admired the Avengers since you were young. Finally getting this shot, proving your worth to be on such missions.
“That I am. My shoulder blades a bugging me again. They keep clicking every time I lift.” You stand next to Wanda again grazing your shoulder against hers lifting your arms over your head. She smelt sweet like vanilla or sugar cookies. It heightened your senses tremendously. You saw Wanda's hand lower the burner putting down the spoon.
“Here. Let me try and help Kotenok.” You loved the way her voice would fluctuate. How her accent would click on and off at any given time. You found Wanda’s sokovian accent very sexy wanting her to say something else.
“You don’t half to Wand. I think it’ll be fine by tomorrow.” You flinched feeling Wanda’s fingers along the top of your shoulders. She chuckled moving closer to you muttering something under her breath. “Come on unzipping your suit Y/N. I promise I won’t hurt you.” Her hands were across your chest. She whispered, “I’ll make your pain go away..” You got nervous thinking someone would turn a corner in a blind eye. You stepped away from Wanda looking at her. Her eyes were burning bright red. The mist was getting bigger dancing around her fingertips.
“I-I can’t..no! I mean..it’ll be fine. I’m gonna take a shower and lay down…yeah.” You idiot! You thought! Why must you always be so nervous and clammy around Wanda? You’ve always had a crush on her since you two met a year ago. Why can’t you just come out and say it you fool!
You trotted down the long hallway connecting all of the bedrooms. Not everyone slept in the compound. Some had their own homes with their families. Some just crashed here until their mission was completed. Wanda’s room was across from yours. Hers was done pretty. All of her posters and bedding matched. As yours was bare. No posters, no pictures. Simple bedding that came with this room and some of your clothes in a garbage bag.
You unzipped your suit slowly pulling it from your back. As you looked in the mirror, you see your back black and purple. Your spine ached to see a huge cut down the middle.
“Fuck!” You sharply inhale touching your spine.
You turned on a light watching as your body moved beside the mirror. Your black bra was too big for you and it seemed the matching panties were too tight. You were all out of place. You heard footsteps down the hallway creeping to a halt to your doorframe.
Wanda leaned in the door frame, she looked rather pissed or worried. You couldn't quite tell for sure. She raised her eyebrows pointedly. Her hand glowed in front of her pointing her index finger to your bed. “Sit. Now.” Wanda got out of the door frame holding your shoulders directing you to the queen-sized mattress. "Don't worry about me, Wanda. I'm completely fine. Just a few scratches that's all!" You nervously laughed feeling her mist grow around feeling the warmth becomes hot. "No. It's not fine. Your back has so many bruises it's creating a map of Africa! Do you think this is fine!? You could have internal bleeding or god knows worse!! Why in the hell didn't go see Helen Cho? She could've stopped before it got worse!" She forcefully pushed you onto the bed tracing her fingers across your spine, every little touch of her fingertips let out a stinging sensation. You wince to yourself trying not to let Wanda catch on. She knew though, you can't hide from her when she has her hands on you. She can feel everything.
"This might take a while for me but I think I can calm you down." Wanda slowly traced higher intertwining her fingers with your bra unclasping it. "We don't need this right now. It'll only get in the way.." You felt your bra becoming loose catching it quickly cupping yourself. "You don't have to do that Wand, I promise I'll let Cho take a good look at me in the morning, but right now I just wanna crawl into bed.." You slightly backed away crawling closer to your pillows. As you looked down at your white bedding you notice, you not gonna get out of this one once you saw Wanda's red mist cover you entirely. "Now, where do you think you're going? Huh, detka?" Wanda straddled your lower back lightly rubbing your shoulders, letting your bra straps fall off your shoulders hitting your elbows. You were laying on your stomach feeling Wanda's thighs clench against your hips. Her hand tucked underneath your stomach latching on to one of your cups throwing your bra onto the floor.
You were about to say something as you felt this wave come over you. All of the pain in your spine was easing away. Wanda's fingertips danced around our skin, her mist intertwining her fingers leaving marks of light on your back.
"You starting to feel better, dragă?" Her body bent down whispering in your ear, her breath was hot feeling her lips graze the top of your ear. You let a tiny moan burring your face down not letting her hear you. "Uh-huh-..." You let out another moan louder. Wanda softly laughed trailing her hands down your back gripping your sides tightly.
With force, her hands tightened more forcefully flipping you onto your back. You quickly covered your boobs with your arms crossing your hands around your neck. "What y/n? Why are you getting so shy?" Wanda caressed her hand on your stomach running up pulling your arms away from your boobs, letting them bounce free. Her hands were so soft. She was still hovering over you with her thighs clenched around your hips. Her fiery orange hair was on her face. You wanted to fix it so bad but it looked so sexy too. Wanda bent down softly kissing your neck. Leaving a straight line down to your stomach. "Ești atât de frumoasă..." She groaned kissing you lower till she got to the hem of your panties. "Huh?.." You looked down wondering what she said since you didn't learn sokovian yet but you knew she said something hot. She grinned looking up at you, her eyes started to glow red. Her cheeks warmed getting a rosy pink. "Haha, you're cute y/n." You were shivering, not because you were cold. You knew what was going to happen but you were nervous. You were new to this, this was your first time. You didn't want Wanda to find out but you couldn't play it off or fake it. You knew you couldn't think about it either, she'd read your mind. You looked down giving a somewhat awkward smile. You saw Wanda's facial expression change, you fucked up thinking about it now. She knows. You tried to hide your face because your expressions speak louder than any word you can say. You felt intensely red across your face.
"You ready fetiță?" Wanda did her signature held tilt raising an eyebrow with a stupid little grin. You couldn't decide if you wanted to tell her how you felt or if you wanted to bite the bullet and go through with it, but how can you say no to this gorgeous woman straddling your pelvis.
You tried to let out a single word but all that came out was a soft moan flowing out of your lips. You finally felt your vocal cords buzz getting enough courage to say something.
"Y-yes Wanda..." Your lips moved to create a slight smile. All of your pain has gone away. All you felt was pure. At this moment.
Wanda's grin turned into a tiny bite on her lip looking down your hips, pulling the hem of your panties down. She stood over you hovering on her knees throwing your panties to the foot of the bed. She turned her head behind her flicking her hand to shut and lock the door with the lights dimming. All of the light you saw was the red light coming from Wanda's hand until she snapped her fingers seeing some of the light of your new candles. Wanda began to lift her black dress over her head wearing nothing underneath except for her black thigh-high socks. She was probably planning all of this you thought. "You wanna know what I said earlier y/n?" She flipped her hair behind her bending down giving little pecks on your neck up to your chin. You were genuinely curious but you were too flustered to think of any form of a sentence. You shook your head letting out a noise. You tried to say yes but it came out as a low moan. Her lips met yours so softly touching even though when they touched it came as a rough surprise. Wanda's lips were soft compared to yours. Yours had a cut on the top from your mission, though it didn't hurt no more it still made you a little insecure. Wanda let go kissing your cheek feeling her breath on your ear.
"I said you're so beautiful, love." She whispered lower her hand down to your hot opening. Her soft finger circled your pulsating clit. You clenched your jaw looking down between Wanda and yourself.
"You are so fucking wet detka.." Wanda's one hand was circling your center while the other was fixing her hair from falling in front of her face. Your moans became loud when you felt one of her fingers slip inside your core. "O-oh my god..W-wand!" You whimpered tripping on your tongue. Wanda grinned loving how she was making you act. She never saw you this way. Frankly, you never saw yourself act this way also. "Awe babydoll, do you like that?" Wanda's naked body shifted around your stomach. You felt her arousal on your skin. When you realized she was grinding on you, you immediately gripped Wanda's hips pushing her down thrusting herself more. Wanda let out a little groan scrunching her nose.
"You're so hot Wanda..my god." Your head tilted back feeling you slowly creeping up to an orgasm, your first every orgasm by another person. Wanda knew it too. You felt your walls starting to tighten, ready to close. She giggled shaking her head.
"Oh no, no kotenok." She pulled out her finger sticking to her ring finger. You bucked her hips wanting her to continue to feel her inside you again. "P-p-please Wanda! Let me cum."
"No dragă. Not like this." She got up moving her body down sitting on her knees. You looked down seeing the beautiful sparkly wet spot she left on your stomach. Her hands clenched the inside of your thighs prying them wide open. You saw her having some troubles with her hair getting in the way, so you twisted your fingers through her hair keeping it up. You knew what was coming next, your entire body shook in excitement. She looked up into your eyes. She was glowing, literally. Her eyes changed from green to dark red.
"You ready dragă?" She bent down. You gasped, you couldn't believe this was happening. Her tongue moved ever so slightly all along your folds. You shifted your thighs moving onto Wanda's shoulders. "Awe fuck!" Your nails dug into her scalp, she groaned into you. "Mmm, fuck you taste so good y/n!!" Her tongue finally went into you. The feeling made you jolt, you tugged at her hair. She loved it. Her arms wrapped around your thighs letting her nails drag along your skin; leaving sharp reddened marks. It stung the first time she did that until the pain turned into pure pleasure almost begging her to dig her nails into your skin. You moaned again, your back arched moving your hips around. Wanda pressed her face deeper into you feeling her mouth closer moving all over you.
"Oh my god, Wanda! Go faster!! P-p-please.." You were hot and flustered. You couldn't think nor did you want to at this moment. All you wanted to think was Wanda and her only. All you see from her was her orange roots on top of her head. Wanda paid more attention to your clit, lightly swaying her tongue across not pushing too hard just yet. Your hands were still intertwined in Wanda's hair, caressing the side of her ears.
"Ar fi bine să vii pentru mine" Wanda muttered against you. Your body twitched against her mouth.
"Uh-huh.." You didn't speak sokoivan, you kicked yourself in the ass that you didn't learn earlier so you can understand what the hell she said. All you did was agree hoping she was saying good things.
"You gonna cum for me kotenok?" Wanda looked into your eyes, her eyes sparkled emerald. It was her diamond eyes that made you whimper. Your teeth caught on to your lip biting down. "Yes, Wanda!" You tried to control your breathing even though Wanda's finger glided your sensitive folds, you let out a moan completely losing control of your breathing. "Are you all mine? Huh?" Wanda laid her head slightly on your thigh circling her finger around your clit. Make your thigh twitch.
"Yes..yes Wanda. I am all yours." You stroked her head lightly, massaging your thumbs on her temples. "Good girl y/n." Wanda went down finish off licking your middle. That little break made your sensitivity stronger. That rush rode on for short time and you felt your first climax coming around the corner. Wanda knew it too, her eyes lit up again. Except a red mist surrounded you. Your entire back sat up by the mist prompting yourself with your hands leaving from her hair.
As you sat up you felt your climax coming fairly quick. "Awe fuck! Wanda! I'm cumming! Fuck!!" Your face was a deep red looking down at Wanda turning into a bright rosy pink. "Than cum than detka.." Wanda went nuts on your clit again making your moans turn into a scream.
Your orgasm hit you hard. It washed over you making your entire body vibrate. Wanda sat up stroking your thigh. You fell back onto the mattress feeling the cold sheets along your spine. "How was that y/n? Do you feel better?" Wanda got up crawling up to meet your gaze. She laid her body down onto yours wrapping her arms around your neck. You lifted your twitchy arms around Wanda's torso. Trying once again to control that breathing.
"That was fucking amazing Wand. I do feel better. Thank you." You turned kissing her cheek.
"Not bad for your first time huh?" She giggled stroking your hair. You cocked your head staring into your eyes, turning a bright red.
"Wait! How in the hell did you know?"

hoax [wanda maximoff]
folklore challenge: day 16
wanda maximoff x fem!reader
summary: final part of this wanda series!
pt.1, pt.2, pt.3
Tumblr media
*not my gif*
Time is a funny concept. 
The way that so much can happen in so little time. It’s like one moment you’re a little kid in kindergarten and then in a blink of an eye, you’re graduating high school. Or you’re moving into your new house with your wife in the suburbs, and now here you are holding your twins in your arms. 
Wanda just told you she was pregnant, what felt like a day ago, and suddenly she was in labor. You found it odd, but decided not to say anything. Honestly, you were too distracted at the beautiful baby boys in front of you. 
“God, how did I get so lucky?” you whispered and you lifted your eyes to meet Wanda who was already staring back at you. 
She held her hand for you to grab as you coddled Tommy in one of your arms, “I ask myself the same thing every single day,” she brought your hand up to her lips, kissing them softly. 
The Sokovian sat there, staring at you in awe at how great you were with Tommy and Billy. You never thought you’d have kids of your own. It was a fantasy that seemed so out of reach until you met Wanda. Then everything in your life started falling into place. You left the Avengers and joined Wanda in your picture perfect life in Westview. 
But, for some odd reason that’s the only thing you can remember. You don’t remember moving in or the countless holidays spent with your friends. Your only recollection of the holidays are the pictures that hang from your wall. Pictures that you were in, but have no memory of. 
“Wanda?” a voice whispered that caught the Avenger’s attention. You didn’t seem to notice it though. It sounded like a vague echo as static meshed with the voice, “Wanda, put the barrier down please, just come home,” 
Wanda shook her head, pretending like it was just a weird side effect from pregnancy. You looked back at her with your perfect smile as you bounced Billy and Tommy in your arms. Everything was perfect.
“I’m trying to get through to her and I know she can hear me, but I think she’s assuming it’s just her imagination. She doesn’t know what’s going on,” Natasha explained. 
“Or she doesn’t want to respond,” Steve whispered. 
After a month of Wanda still avoiding their calls, Fury finally told them the address you gave to him. He tried to keep it as private as possible. He may not be a nice person ninety nine percent of the time, but watching you die in his arms... privacy to grieve was the least Wanda deserved. 
“The GPS said we should be there in a couple minutes,” Nat told Steve as they embarked on the mission to get Wanda back. 
Steve slammed on the breaks causing Nat to sling forward, “What the hell grandpa?!” she exclaimed. 
The blonde’s eyes locked on the windshield as his mouth opened wide enough to catch Ultron itself. A massive red shield hugged the town of Westview tightly like a mother coddling their newborn. 
“What the fu-” Nat was about to say before Steve cut her off.
“Language,” he warned. 
They’ve been trying and trying to get through to Wanda. They don’t know why she felt the need to protect this town from outsiders, but they were determined to find an answer.
“Wanda, my love,” you said as you entered the kitchen. The boys were already down for their nap and she hummed in response, bringing the spoon to your mouth to taste her infamous paprikash.
You moaned at how the spices lingered on your taste buds, “It’s good?” she asked.
You nodded, “It’s amazing,” 
The Sokovian smiled at you widely, leaning in to kiss your perfect lips. The taste of her chapstick meshing with the paprikash that was just on your lips, “Now what is it that you wanted to ask me?” 
“Oh yeah! I was just thinking about how much I miss the team, you know it seems like years since we’ve last seen them. So much has been happening. I mean they didn’t even come to our wedding which is strange,” you started to ramble.
“They’re very busy people Y/N,” Wanda reminded you and you nodded.
“Yeah, yeah, I know, but I don’t know I was thinking...” you trailed off, trying to find the confidence to ask, “What if we took a trip to New York visit the place we used to call home? We can take the twins there and show them off to the team! I’ve missed Peter, god he must be what nineteen now? And Nat! She’ll be pissed if we don’t tell her about the boys and-”
“No,” the red head told you simply, not even turning to face you as she continued to stir the pot.
“But-why not?” you asked.
She shrugged, “The boys are still young. That drive to the city from here is a good two hours and they can barely sleep for thirty minutes without waking up,” 
“Then let’s have them here!” you suggested, trying to find a solution.
“Our house is a mess Y/N. We’re nowhere near close to having guests over,” she argued.
“I’ll clean all by myself, all you have to do is sit back and relax and I can do all the work!” you explained. 
Wanda dropped the metal spoon loudly against the counter, “No Y/N! We’re not leaving and the team is not coming to us! We can’t do this right now!” she yelled, causing you to flinch back at her sudden outburst. 
You were about to respond when the twins started crying over the baby monitor. Both of you let out a sigh, “I’ll get them,” you whispered, walking out of the kitchen and towards the nursery. 
Wanda knew what this was. This whole town of Westview, their picture perfect world. It was a hoax. 
What is a hoax exactly?
A fucking humorous deception.
She doesn’t know how it happened, but all she knew was that you were here. You were still with her and you were you. She remembers that morning she woke up to find you cooking her breakfast in the kitchen like it was yesterday.
“Y/N?” she whispered.
You turned to face her with a soft smile on your face, “Hello beautiful,”
Wanda walked over to you slowly before hesitantly reaching out to touch your face. She let out another gasp as she felt your familiar soft skin against her hands. The way that you leaned into her touch. 
“You’re here?” she asked.
You nodded, “I’m here baby, I’m right here. Where else would I be?” you asked, chuckling, flipping over the pancake, “I know it’s been a long couple days, but we did move in together,”
Her eyebrows furrowed as she just stared at you, unsure how you were even here. But it didn’t matter how you were here. You were here, alive, and you didn’t remember anything that happened.
The Sokovian instantly wrapped her arms around your waist, pulling you into a hug. You let out a soft laugh and Wanda can feel the vibration that emitted from your chest. She could hear your heart beating. The sound that would lull her to sleep even on her most restless nights was right here in front of her.
You hooked your finger underneath her chin to meet with her beautiful green eyes, “You okay?”
“More than okay,”
Wanda didn’t know how much time she had with you left. Or what would happen if you were to ever leave Westview and to be frank she didn’t want to find out. 
Suddenly, there was a knock on the front door, pulling her away from her sweet memory. Wanda lowered the heat on the stove and trudged her way over to the door. She opened it to reveal Nat standing there with a concerned look sprayed over her face.
The red head’s green eyes popped out of her head as she pushed Nat out of the doorway and to the side of the house. The twin’s bedroom outlooked the front yard and she was not about to let her see you.
“How did you get in here?” Wanda whispered, pacing back and forth the side of the house.
Nat watched her intently, “That’s for me to know and for you to not know. Are you okay? Is someone forcing you to keep this barrier up?” 
Wanda didn’t answer, but rather continued to pace, biting her nails, “Wanda, just please come home. I know you miss Y/N and I know her death has been terrible on all of us, but please. Isolating yourself and shutting all of us out is never the answer. So please, come home,”
“I am home! This is my home now! The house Y/N bought for her and I to start a family together! This...” she gestured to the house, “Is where I belong! Now please, just go,” 
The Russian assassin was about to respond when someone spoke up from the front door, “Wanda, darling, where’d you go? I think the paprikash is burning and you know if I touch it I’ll probably make it worse!” 
Natasha’s eyes widened at the sound of an all too familiar voice, “Is that-”
“I’m coming!” Wanda yelled, cutting her off, “I think you should go,”
“Wanda what’s-”
“Get out and leave us alone!” Wanda’s eyes flipped red and all of a sudden Nat was flying out of Westview.
The Sokovian let out a sigh and flattened her clothes, taking a deep breath before heading back inside. She found you in the kitchen, trying to figure out how to turn off the stove with both of the boys in your arms.
“Oh thank God!” you exclaimed, “Every time I tried to turn off the stove one of their heads were getting to close to the flames and then that scared me and I was-” 
The red head, cut you off by kissing you softly and she could feel a grin form onto your face, “I’m sorry for snapping at you earlier. It’s just the aftermath of the pregnancy and the lack of sleep,” 
You kissed her once more, “It’s okay my love. We’ll assess it some other time,” 
“I love you,” Wanda whispered, before turning to look at the two boys in your arms, kissing their heads before kissing your nose, “All of you,” 
Nat landed at the feet of Steve, Bucky, and Peter. She groaned, slowly starting to get up. Peter quickly helped her up, coming to her aide. Ever since you died and Wanda fell off the map, Nat helped fill the void for him. 
“Are you okay Ms. Romanoff? Did you see Ms. Maximoff? Is she okay?” Peter rambled. 
“I heard Y/N,” she whispered to no one in particular.
“What?” Steve asked, picking up on what she said. 
She looked at the three guys in front of her, trying her best to blink away the tears, “I heard Y/N’s voice,”
God, there it was again the funny concept of time. You swore that two days ago the boys were just newborns and you coddled the in your arms, but now there you were celebrating their sixth birthday. 
You entered your white picket fence dream after sitting at your desk job for your 9-5 job. Sometimes you really missed being an Avenger, the action of it all, but Westview had the lowest crime rate ever and never needed saving.
“Mom!” the boys screamed as you opened the front door. 
You kneeled down to their level as the came crashing into a hug, “Happy birthday boys! Stop growing please! You’re making me feel old!” 
“That’s because you are, Mom!” Tommy exclaimed and you gasped in shock.
“Well if your mom is old she’s aging like fine wine,” Wanda cut in, leaning against the stair rail. 
You got up from off your knees and made your way over to your wife. You placed your hand on her waist, leaning in for a chaste kiss. The two of you smiling softly as she leaned into your embrace, pressing yet another kiss to her forehead. 
“Now how about some cake for the birthday boys?” you exclaimed and they both nodded squealing excitedly. 
Billy and Tommy ran into the kitchen with you chasing after them. Wanda smiled fondly at the three of you, about to follow your lead, when there was a knock on the door. She just assumed that it was Billy and Tommy’s neighborhood friends, but when she opened it she was met with an unpleasant surprise.
Natasha, Bucky, Peter, and Steve all stood there with gifts in their hands. Wanda quickly forced them out the doorway, just like she did Nat the other day, “Natasha, I told you to leave us alone!” 
“How did you get Y/N back?” she asked, plain and simple. 
“It’s none of your business, just go!” Wanda scolded.
Bucky just studied her and finally spoke up for the first time in months, “She doesn’t know how she brought her back,”
The Sokovian sighed, rubbing her hand aggressively over her face, “I need you to leave,” 
“This isn’t real Wanda!” Bucky screamed, every emotion he’s hidden from everyone finally coming to light, “Y/N is gone! She died that day on the battlefield! You’ve made this up in your head!”
“You-you don’t know that! You don’t know anything!” she yelled at him.
He shook his head, “But we do! You were so stricken with grief when you came here. You lost the person you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with. You watched as she died in Fury’s arms. You were there, remember that?!” 
Wanda shook her head desperate to stop the harsh memory that started invading her senses. 
After you had just saved her life, the witch was in desperate need to find you again. She wanted to tell you everything. The things that she tried so desperately to push away and hide. She couldn’t hide it anymore, she had to tell you. 
Steve’s voice came crashing into her ear, “I need backup Y/N has a gun. I think she’s about to kill Fury. We’re in the middle of the battlefield,” 
Wanda used her powers to fly over towards where you and Fury were. Her mind had no time to process what had just happened as you turned the gun and pointed it on yourself. 
“Y/N!” Wanda screamed, but it was too late. 
The damage was done. You had pulled the trigger. 
She watched as Fury held your body, trying desperately to press his hand against your wound to stop the bleeding. But you went for the heart, there was no saving you.
“Fucking hell Y/N!” your sister screamed, running towards your lifeless body.
Wanda, Peter, Bucky, Steve, and Nat all seemed to reach you at the same time. All of their mouths were opened wide enough to catch any bug that flew by. Your sister held your lifeless body in her arms, tears pouring down her cheeks and onto your face. 
“I thought she was gonna shoot-” Steve whispered, backing away slowly from your body as he stared at you in shock. 
The echoing sound of a gun shot playing over and over again in his head. 
A haunting smile, grazing over your features. Peter tried to hold your hand, squeezing it lightly, “Ms. Y/L/N? Please, come back. Can you come back please?” he whispered, but he knew that you couldn’t. 
Sobs started to course through his body as he held your hand tighter, “Ms. Y/L/N please. I need to show that I can make you proud again...please,” He started crying louder as Tony grabbed his shoulder and pulled him away from you. Tony held him into a tight hug as he cried against his metal suit. 
Nat and Bucky couldn’t even look at your body. All Nat could see was the gun that laid right next to you as she bit her lip to stop herself from crying. 
Wanda cupped your cheeks softly, grazing her fingers over her eyelids to close your eyes. Even though she wanted nothing more than to keep staring into your beautiful eyes. 
“I was too late,” she whispered to you, “I should’ve told you that I still loved you, I’m sorry,”
She was snapped out of her memory when Bucky continued to yell at her, “Y/N has been dead for three months! And when you came here to see the house she left for you, you were so blinded by your grief that you created this reality that’s not real!”
“That’s not Ms. Y/L/N, Ms. Maximoff,” Peter said in a more softer tone, “It’s magic that you created,” 
“No it’s not!” Wanda yelled, still in denial despite everything telling her otherwise.
“God damn it Wanda! It’s a fucking hoax! All of it!” Nat finally added to the conversation.
The Sokovian’s eyes flipped to the scarlet red as magic started coursing through her veins. A red glow appearing at her fingertips, “I said leave us alone!”
Wanda shot her magic at the four of them. All of them closed their eyes waiting for impact, just to be met with nothing. The opened their eyes, finding you lying on the ground in front of them. 
All four of the Avengers let out a small gasp at the sight of you, living and breathing. An image that they dreamed of seeing just one more time. And that was the moment you knew. Every single memory that was fuzzy. The memories that you couldn’t remember all started falling into pieces. Losing your sister to Hydra, joining the Avengers to get her back, falling in love with Wanda, betraying the Avengers, the two years that happened after your betrayal, and finally your death. 
Wanda rushed to your side, cupping your cheek in her hand, “Y/N, darling, are you okay?” she asked and you blinked a couple times before answering her. 
“I’m okay, but I remember...everything,” you whispered and she shook her head.
“None of that happened, after our mission to stop Hydra, we retired from the Avengers and we moved her. Billy and Tommy, they are our sons and this is our home,” she reassured you, but you shook your head. 
You stood up from where you lied on the floor and cupped her cheeks softly, running circles on her cheekbones. The Sokovian had tears pooling in her beautiful green eyes.
“I’m not real, my love. None of this is,” you gestured to the bright suburban world fading away into a darker sadder color. 
The sunlight that once hit the house, hitting everything, but the house. The flowers in the garden slowly dying and the perfect white picket fence was all old and chipped. Billy and Tommy weren’t in the house anymore. There was no cake or birthday decorations. Empty pizza boxes and alcohol bottles were scattered on the floor. 
She shook her head, “No I can’t, I won’t. I have you back! This is the life we were supposed to have together! The life we always dreamed of!”
You swept a stray hair behind her ear, “But it’s not real darling. This is life is a fantasy that’s too far from our reach now. And this life, stuck here in a bubble away from everyone you love, is no way to live,” 
“It is because I have you!” she tried to argue.
“Maybe in another life it would’ve been enough, but in this life it’s not. I don’t want you wasting your years of life where you could be out there actually living. You could travel the world! Save people’s lives! Just live, Wanda, and when everything is said and done, when it’s your time, I’ll be waiting for you,” you whispered. 
You let out a sigh, pressing a kiss to her forehead, “Look at these four amazing people right here, they care about you so much and love you so much that they want to help you. I’m not the only one who loves you and I’m not the only one who matters anymore,” 
“So please my love, put down this barrier. Go live your life and I promise,” you take her hand and place it on your heart, “I will wait for you,”
You let go of her hand and walk over to the four Avengers that were standing there teary eyes. Steve didn’t even hesitate to bring you into a hug. You let out a small chuckle, wrapping your arms tightly around him.
“I’m sorry, I should’ve known you weren’t going to kill Fury. I should’ve had more faith in you,” he whispered to you. 
You shook your head, “I just betrayed you guys after years of gaining your trust, I think you had every right to think that,” you joked, trying to get him to laugh and you did. He let out a small chuckle, “Take care of her for me Cap,” 
“I will,”
He finally let go of you after giving you a good dad type of pat on the back, “And you,” you pointed at Bucky, “You need to stop beating yourself up. I know you’re not a big talker Barnes, but this is a whole different level,” 
You let out a small gasp as he wrapped you in his arms, “I’m so sorry,” he whispered.
“I forgive you Buck... just work on your left hook next time. It didn’t really hurt, I was just trying to make you feel better about yourself,” you teased your best friend and he scoffed, pushing you away from him. 
“Nat,” you looked her dead in the eyes and she held her breath waiting for you to speak, “Clean the gun for fucks sake! I know you miss me, but c’mon that’s a little creepy. Just grab one of my t-shirts or something from my room,” 
You were trying to do everything in you can to make them smile one last time. You had to see the bright smile on their faces one more time. The Russian rolled her eyes playfully and you pulled her into a hug, “I know you don’t like hugs, but just do it for me this once,” you whispered.
It took a couple seconds, but Nat hesitantly wrapped her arms around you, tightening her grip, “I already told Cap this, but I’m going to tell this to you too because let’s be real I’m more scared of you than him,” you whispered and she laughed softly, “Take care of her for me. You’re her best friend. She needs you. And you need to forgive yourself, it’s not your fault, okay?”
“Maybe just don’t use my gun next time,” she teased back and you let out a loud laugh.
“I don’t think there’s gonna be a next time, but I’ll keep that in mind,” you told her.
“And I promise I’ll take care of her, you have my word,” she whispered back.
“Thank you,” 
“Ms. Y/L/N! Oh my gosh! You won’t believe everything that’s been going on! I went to my school trip to Italy, right?! And there was this crazy sea monster in the canal! Then there was this really bad guy named Quentin Beck and I should’ve known he was fishy because he looked a lot like Jake Gyllenhaal and you taught me not to trust Jake Gyllenhaal because of what he did to Taylor Swift.  I remember you told me that he took her scarf and didn’t go to her birthday party and he took my glasses so I knew I had to get my glasses back or else I’d never get them back! So maybe, I should’ve just followed my gut instinct. But I totally beat him, he caught me off guard a few times, but I kicked his butt Ms. Y/L/N! I totally won!” he rambled and you thought the rambling stopped but he kept going. 
“But that’s not even the coolest part Ms. Y/L/N! MJ likes me back! She kinda found out that I was Spider-Man, but she likes me! And she kissed me! Isn’t that crazy?!” you didn’t care about how long he was rambling, you missed the kid’s rambles. You wouldn’t stop him no matter how much you wanted to, “It was like a dream! Her lips were so soft and on the flight back she totally put her head on my shoulder! Now I’ve got a date with her!” 
You pulled him into a hug, missing what it was like to protect his innocence, “Oh this is nice,” he whispered, hugging you back tightly, “I’ve missed our hugs,”
“I’ve missed them too, buddy,” you whispered and the two of you stood there in silence for a long while until you finally broke it, “I’m so proud of you Peter. Always remember that okay? I don’t care if a mission goes bad or if you mess up your date with MJ. I am always so unbelievably proud of you, kid. Do you understand me?” 
“I do. I love you Y/N/N,” he whispered, finally calling you by something other than your last name and you smiled widely.
“I love you too kiddo,” 
You walked back over to Wanda who had tears free falling down her cheeks, “Are you ready?” you whispered and she shook her head.
“Not at all,” 
You leaned your forehead against the Sokovian’s, “C’mon guys, let’s get them some space,” Steve whispered and they all hesitantly walked away, each one of them giving you a sad glance.
“I’m sorry for everything,” you whispered, “But that letter I wrote you. I meant every word. Loving you is the most honest and vulnerable thing I’ve ever done and if I could go back in time and change what happened I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t change a thing because I wouldn’t have met you if I had changed anything. The only regret I have is not telling you I love you sooner,”
“I forgive you Y/N,” she whispered back, “I never hated you, I could never hate you even if I tried.” her voice cracked.
You took the pads of your thumbs and wiped away her tears, “I know,”
“I don’t want you to go. I want you to stay here with me. I want to stay with you,” she begged.
“But we can’t baby and you know we can’t. This world you created it was mostly a lie, but for a moment, a beautiful one. It was rare what we had and God it sucks that it has to end this way, but I don’t regret any of it. I don’t regret you,” you tell her, letting your own tears fall.
“I don’t regret us either,” she said.
“I’m going to be watching you and looking after you. I am always going to be right here, cheering you on during the happy times and holding you during the bad ones. This isn’t goodbye, okay? This is simply see you later,” you told her.
Her beautiful green eyes finally met yours. She studied you intently, trying to memorize every feature of your beautiful beautiful face. Her fingers gazing over your delicate features before finally pressing her lips onto yours.
You wrapped your arms around.her tightly, pulling her unbelievably closer. Her hands playing with the hairs at the nape of your neck. You could taste the saline on your lips, but you weren’t sure if they were from your tears or hers. 
The two of you broke apart breathless, her hands still resting on your cheeks, “I love you Wanda Maximoff,” you could feel a tingling sensation fill your body and you knew the barrier was lifting, “I’ll be waiting for you,”
“I love you Y/N Y/L/N,” she whispered as she watched you fade from view.
One year later
“Hello, everyone! Thank you for coming on this special occasion!” Steve’s voice echoed into the crowd in front of the suburban home you built for you and Wanda.
But this time in a whole different light. It was a little bigger with a few more rooms added, thanks to Tony’s gracious donation. The sun actually hit the house and the daises were no longer dead in the garden. 
“This Avenger is very special to me. She has been through so much more than anyone can imagine. Sadly, two years ago we lost someone dear to us, but she lost her true love. It was a tough time, but she persevered and she came out of it stronger than ever. Please welcome the guest of honor Wanda Maximoff,” Steve introduced and cheers exploded throughout the crowd.
Wanda smiled shyly, stepping up to the microphone, “Thank you everyone for coming and for supporting this cause. Y/N was very special to me. She was someone I wanted to spend the rest of my life with and she used to tell me stories of her childhood growing up. Her parents abandoned her and her sister, leaving them to fend for themselves in this already scary world. When Y/N passed she gave this house to me to create my own family in, but I realized that it would be hard to live here alone, so I decided to turn this house into a home,” 
Wanda gave a subtle nod to Tony and he pulled off the cloth that hid the big sign in front of the house: The Y/N Y/L/N Orphanage. 
“In honor of Y/N, I’m opening our house into a home for children in need. A place where we could provide a family to kids who never grew up in one, it’s what Y/N would’ve wanted. Thank you again everyone!” Wanda stated before stepping inside to the new orphanage. 
A big cake waiting for her in the kitchen, all of her friends surrounding the counter. They all cheered for her as she blew out the candles. Her eyes scanning the familiar faces of the people who love and care about her the most. 
All Wanda could think about was how you should’ve been there. You should’ve burst through that door with your perfect smile and scoop her into the biggest hug. But there was still an unbelievable happiness and peace that settled over her body as she remembered the words you once told her. She could feel your presence standing right next to her with that bright smile on your face. 
As the years came and gone Wanda remembered you in flashbacks and echos. In times where she most desperately needed you, she knew you were there. In times where she was the happiest, you were also there. That feeling never went away. 
She lived the life that she promised you she would live. 
Wanda woke up to a bright light in the suburban house that she once fantasized of living with you in. The smell of coffee filling her senses and she walked to the kitchen to see you sitting on the counter, sipping your cup of coffee.
“Did I create an alternate reality again?” she whispered, hesitantly.
You shook your head, “No my love. It was time,” 
“You waited for me?” she asked, settling into the safe space between your legs. You put your coffee mug down, cupping the space where her jaw and neck meet.
“I promised you didn’t I? Now we can finally be together, the right way,” you whispered. 
And that was it. Even if you had to wait a whole lifetime for her to come home to you, it was worth it. Your relationship was sad, beautiful, and tragic, but it was yours and you wouldn’t change it for the world.

"Fans just want to see Annette be adapted loyally from the game."
LOYALLY HOW? SHE ISN'T EVEN A FUCKING PERSON? SHE'S JUST RICHTER'S SATELLITE LOVE INTEREST WHO NEEDS TO BE SAVED. SHE GETS TURNED INTO A VAMPIRE, THE ONE INTERESTING THING THAT HAPPENS TO HER, AND SHE'S THERE TO BE SEXY FOR RICHTER.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Annette's biggest plot line is that:
A.) She gets kidnapped by Dracula and Richter saves her.
B.) She gets turned into a vampire and obsesses over Richter.
Tumblr media
There is nothing to adapt loyally because she's not a character!
Castlevania games have always been light on plot. The same goes for their characters.
Yeah, no. I'd rather take the one that actually feels like a real character, with real motivations and a rich backstory. I'll take the one who can stand side by side with Richter in battle. The one who is both wonderful independent and connected with Richter.
Tumblr media
She's flawed and angry. Filled with pride of her history and ancestry. Who is starting to realize that she might like this Richter Belmont fellow, despite his abrasive attitude. She sees herself in this handsome, arrogant, loyal vampire hunter. In him she sees a reflection of her fears and insecurities. In him she can see a way to beating back the threats that plague the land.
Tumblr media
In each other, they see hope.
Richter's abilities return to him because he needs to protect her, along with Tera and Maria. In turn, Annette isn't alone in this fight. She is a woman of color, finding herself in a strange land with people who despise her just for her skin. But with Richter, Tera and Maria? She's not alone.
They see something in one another that is worth admiring.
And one day, perhaps, something worth loving.

Team Vacation
Summary: Reader and Quill have had a fwb relationship for a while but have both secretly caught feelings. During a team vacation, Pepper manages to get Reader to reveal her feelings to an eavesdropping Quill.
TW/CW: Peter Quill x Stark!Reader. I’m not sure how to describe the timeline/au/whatchamacallit but basically none of the heroes died I’m looking at you Tony, Nat, and Vision or retired I’m looking at you Steve, no not you Clint, you’re perfectly fine but it is post Endgame. For clarity’s sake, Peter = Peter Parker, Quill = Peter Quill lol. Pretty fluffy but also some hints at a fwb relationship. Obvi Quill & Gamora aren’t a thing in this weird ass AU I’ve cooked up lmao.
Requested?: No
Word Count: 1,343
Author’s Note: I’m honestly not sure where this idea came from but here it is! I will say that “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” by Elvin Bishop came to mind while writing it lol. It actually turned out a lot better than I thought it would XD. I hope you enjoy it and as always Requests are Open!
Tumblr media
    I press play on the Awesome Mix on Spotify as Quill, Gamora, and Thor finally make their way over to my car, after convincing Groot, Rocket, Drax, and Mantis into an SUV with Nat & Steve. Quill loses the battle for shotgun as Thor simply lifts him up out of his way and takes a seat in the front passenger seat. Gamora and I both stifle our laughs to save Quill’s ego. As I shift into drive and begin following the SUV, Quill grumbles something about, “Why does it have to be raining? The day we have to arrive on Earth and it decides to rain.”  
    I see Gamora roll her eyes in my rearview mirror as Thor tries to cheer Quill up, “You’ll love Stark’s home. It is very cozy indeed and there is lots of land and space to roam. It will be quite an adventure.”
    “Why again did he insist that we join in on this team vacation?” Peter inquires.
    I chuckle at his whiny demeanor, “Call it extending an Olive Branch. After everything we all went through, he and Steve decided everyone deserves a bit of a vacation and Steve wants to welcome you guys into the family. Besides, even Carol was able to clear her schedule for a bit and join us.” His next bout of mumbling and grumbling is indecipherable so I train my focus back on the road. Within no time the rain retrears and we are turning onto the long, winding driveway that leads to my brother’s estate. As we pull up to the house, Morgan races out to greet everyone and of course her big “brother” is right in tow behind her. Peter lifts Morgan onto his shoulders so that she is eye level with Thor; they’re both giggling their heads off.
    Tony makes his way over to help carry luggage into the house and Pepper joins Nat in watching Peter and Thor chase Morgan around the yard. I step out of the car and join Quill on the other side, “Do you really think it’ll be so terrible to just spend some time with family and friends? It’ll be nice to feel like you don’t have to be constantly doing something won’t it?” With this, I leave him to his moping and join Tony in carrying in luggage.
    Once all the luggage has been carried in and delivered to the proper rooms, I make my way to my own room to change clothes and get ready for dinner which Tony says will be ready soon. I find my room easily and close the door behind me as I enter. A mischievous grin makes its way onto my face as I hear Quill singing in the bathroom as he showers. I quickly change clothes but before I can finish Quill is exiting the bathroom and leaning against the door frame, “I was wondering who I’d be bunking with. Seeing as there’s only one bed I was desperately hoping it’d be you.”
    Knowing Pepper and everything I had confided in her about, she probably did this on purpose and I make a mental note to thank her later as I pull on my flannel and make my way towards the door to join the others outside, stopping on the way to kiss Quill on the cheek, “You can thank Pep for that. See you outside, dress warm it’ll get cold even with a bonfire going.”
    I find Pepper in the kitchen sipping hot cocoa, “Assuming you’re happy with your roommate. Hot cocoa?”
    I nod, “He seems to be as well, and yes please.”  
    “Well, do be careful because your brother will be asking questions when he puts two and two together and realizes you’re not bunking alone as planned,” she says as she starts a hot cocoa k-cup in the Keurig.
    I giggle, “You and I both know it’ll be a hot minute before he takes a breather and notices anything. He’ll be busy with making sure no one destroys anything important.”
    She hands me a mug of steaming hot cocoa, “Fair enough.” I smile as we both wander out onto the porch. I watch as Bucky and Sam bicker back and forth about who knows what as they man the grill with Dr. Banner. Rocket is begging Tony to let him light the bonfire with a flamethrower. Gamora and Nat have made themselves comfy on the porch swing and Pepper and I join them, taking seats in a couple of rocking chairs. The four of us laugh as Nat points out that Steve is having to explain the concept of a bonfire to Drax and Mantis. Groot is talking to the large oak tree from which a tire swing hangs. This tire swing holds a still giggling Morgan and is being pushed back and forth by Thor and Peter. The only ones unaccounted for as Quill steps out onto the porch, are Clint, who is arriving tomorrow with his wife and kids, and Wanda and Vision, who will be arriving shortly, they had to stop at a store for Paprikash ingredients.
    My eyes follow Quill out to the fire where Tony and Rocket are still locked in debate about the flamethrower but my focus is torn away by the women giggling around me. I glare at the three of them, “What?”
    “I honestly didn’t think you’d be as obvious about it as Quill is,” Gamora laughs.
    “I’m- I- How?” I stutter out.
    “Oh please, if anyone so much as mentions Earth or Stark or anything else having to do with you, Quill is off on in a daydream or rambling on about how amazing you are. I’d be surprised if he hasn’t fooled around and fell in love.”
    I tear my gaze away as Nat chimes in, “So I wasn’t mistaken in thinking that those two had a little something going on? (Y/N), was quite excited when Steve mentioned wanting the Guardians here for this little vacation.”
    Pepper nearly dies of laughter, “Oh they have more than just a little something going on. I wish they’d hurry up and admit their feelings for each other.”
    My head whips back around, “I’ll admit, he’s a hell of a good time but I do not have feelings for Quill,” I state defensively. However, the look Nat gives me says she calls my bluff and knows I’m lying, so does Pep and Gamora.
    “Yes, you do. You know how I can tell? I’ve known you for years and never have I seen you as hung up on a guy as you are on him. If you didn’t have feelings for him, you would be flirtier with other guys and still go on dates,” Pepper states and I almost think I notice her eyes flick to the side and back but brush it off as her checking on Morgan or Tony.  
    I sigh in defeat, “Fine, you caught me but let’s be careful about Tony, I’m not sure how he’d react.” Just as the words tumble out of my mouth, Tony is yelling that the food is ready and I’m dragged off to join everyone else around the now lit bonfire and the grill and tables laden with food. Morgan waves at me from Thor’s shoulders as I approach. I wave back and because I wasn’t watching where I was going, I bump into someone. This someone chuckles and pulls me in front of them to wrap their arms around me and I quickly realize it is Quill, “Glad to know you feel the same.” I look up at him and as he kisses my forehead, a smile grows on my face. I glance over at the ladies and they all grin triumphantly. Out of the corner of my eye I notice Rocket forking over some money to Thor. I wouldn’t doubt that they had a bet running about me and Quill. I find this amusing but decide to tune into the speech my brother is giving and soon he finishes with, “Everyone enjoy your stay! Let’s dig in!”

Elizabeth is so pretty she has no business making straight women and gay men question things like that ;-; Also your writing is great!!! You don't have to be insecure but I know it's natural. My friends and family think I'm very intelligent but I disagree, I always want to learn MOREEE because THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS IN THE WORLD I DON'T KNOW. So I kinda know how you feel but aaaaa you write beautifully, you can relax.
{out of paprikash} Right?! I’m straight and honestly she makes me question my sexually often, haha. And thank you very much, I appreciate that. It’s a combination of two things that make me feel insecure about my writing. 1) I’ve lost a lot of ability I had when I was younger, and 2) I compare myself to other writers and don’t measure up. Rant below if anyone is interested in peaking inside my head on this topic. XD
When I was younger, I wrote epic fantasies, which are basically fantasy books but loooooong. I’ve written one that was 1K+ pages long, one 800+ pages long, and one 600+ pages long. I used to create worlds, make my own maps, make my own races with their own languages and cultures, make my own creatures, create my own magic systems... I mean, the amount of time I spent on the biology, physiology, psychology, culture, and combat behavior of angels alone, haha... Way more than anyone should ever spend on it, let me tell you, lol.
And then I had a rough year. From around November of 2016 until Nov 2017. I’ve never really recovered from things that happened that year, and since then, my life has just been going downhill in a lot of ways. I don’t know how or why it happened, but I lost the ability to write original things. I stopped writing books and short stories. I even stopped writing fanfiction except for absurdly short things. I always prided myself on being a writer. I had been writing for 20 years as of 2017. It was a huge part of my identity as a person. But now... I feel like I’ve lost it, and that hurts on a level I can’t even express. Even with rping on Tumblr, which I started in 2015, I feel like the quality of my writing and the level of detail I put into my characters is suffering more and more with each passing month. I don’t know why and I’m not sure what to do to fix it, but it’s personally very disappointing to me.
So then... to watch so many other talented writers on here... I love reading others’ threads but I get sad because I think... I used to write this well too. I’ll read what others write and just be like.... wow, why am I even bothering to write this character when there are people doing this with it? It’s just a feeling of being superfluous, not needed, extraneous. I feel this mostly with Wanda, Vision, Pietro, and Tony, just as far as Marvel characters are concerned. I would love to write Stephen Strange, I’ve toyed with the idea a lot over the past year, but I just... I keep stopping myself because I think, no, here’s one more character you will just disappoint yourself with, don’t do it. 
I think it’s just the combination of knowing that I’m not at my best and then seeing others writing at their best that makes me think I’m lagging behind the curve. I feel like there is a legitimate quality issue with my writing of late, likely due to stress and traumatic things in my life over the past 4 years, but I also feel like my anxiety blows it out of proportion and magnifies it to be worse than it really is. Unfortunately, as anyone with anxiety knows, just being aware that anxiety is exacerbating a psychological issue doesn’t make it any easier to get rid of it.
Anyhoo... that’s what’s up with me and my writing. Honestly I know what I need to do to reconnect with my characters and get back my voice and my detail level to my liking... but I just have no time for it. I need to write little oneshots, headcanon posts, posts that just ramble about details, talk about scenes or concepts down to minute aspects. Exploratory writing like that, where there’s no expectation or direction, just fleshing-out and creativity... those always help to reset my writing clock, heh. But I’m so behind on drafts on all my blogs that I feel like I shouldn’t waste time on that. And lately I haven’t had any ideas on things to write about, and when I post “send me meta ideas” things, I rarely get responses. I guess no one else can think of topics either, haha, and I feel that. It’s a mood.
It was actually nice to just talk about this. I wonder how many other writers are or have experienced this before. I’m sure they have.

Memories, Chapter 6: Forever Begins
Summary:  Vision plans his proposal.
Ao3 link:https://archiveofourown.org/works/19778191/chapters/47835109
So, Vision began to plan his proposal. Nothing too big or elaborate. Wanda wasn't the kind of girl who needed all the extra bells and whistles, which was part of what her so perfect for Vision, as he also enjoyed quieter celebrations.
Still, Vision wanted to do things right, and for that, there was one more thing he needed. Luckily, he would soon get his chance to get it.
A few weeks after Vision had found the ring, he and Wanda, along with Pepper, Morgan, and the other surviving Avengers, attended a ceremony unveiling memorial statues for Tony and Natasha. The ceremony was held in a cemetery reserved for fallen SHIELD agents and allies. Sometime after the unveiling was complete, Vision paid his respects to both Tony and Natasha, made sure his family were occupied (Wanda was deep in conversation with Clint beside Natasha's statue, while Pepper was chatting to the now elderly Steve Rogers, who seemed quite delighted at Morgan climbing into his lap), and quietly slipped away. --
Vision was not experienced with the layout of the cemetery, so it took him a while to find what he was looking for. When he did, he crouched, pulling a few weeds. The dried-out remains of a bunch of flowers sat propped against the headstone.. Wanda had mentioned visiting sometime between her own resurrection and Tony's funeral. Vision gently rubbed at the stone with his sleeve, so he could more easily read the name etched into it.
Pietro Maximoff
1996-2015
Beloved son, devoted brother.
An Avenger. Died a Hero in the Battle Of Sokovia.
Vision took a shaky breath before he spoke.
"Hello, Pietro. I know you can't answer me, but this is something I felt like I needed to do. I know.. I know I'm probably not what you would have wanted for Wanda. I'm aware that there are things I can't give her.. like a family.. at least not in the traditional way, although our non-traditional one seems to be working out okay so far.. But I love Wanda, more than anything. More than I would have thought a being like myself was capable of. I'm going to ask her to marry me, and I.. I would very much like your blessing."
Even though he was completely aware that it was not possible for Pietro to reply, Vision waited almost nervously. Pietro, Wanda had told him more than once, had been a very protective 'big brother', particularly where boys were concerned. After moment, Vision felt a gust of wind.. Small, almost hesitant, but he liked to think he got the message.
"Thank you.. I will take care of her, I promise."
A few minutes later, Wanda came looking for Vision, touched when she found him at her twin's grave. She knelt beside him, laying a hand on his shoulder.
"You scared me for a second, Vizh. I thought you'd got lost."
"I'm sorry" Vision turned to smile softly at her. "I just needed a minute alone with your brother.. to pay my respects."
"That's sweet of you" Wanda smiled, kissing his cheek, then frowned a little annoyed with herself. "I should have brought more flowers.."
"It's alright" Vision stood, offering his hand to help Wanda up. "We will come back soon."
Wanda leaned forward, pressing a kiss to the cold stone that marked her brother's resting place, before taking Vision's hand.
"Promisiune?"
"Yes, I promise." --
Now, after having gained his blessing, Vision could fully put his plans into motion. At one point, he had considered taking Wanda out for a fancy dinner like he had seen couples do on TV. But, since Vision couldn't eat, that may have felt a little awkward.
Instead, he was going to cook her a special dinner at home. They were going to eat it outside by the lake, under the stars. And if all went well, Vision would propose.
When Vision told Pepper of his plans, Pepper made sure he had everything he needed for the meal he planned to cook (Chicken Paprikash), kissed his cheek and ruffled his non existent hair like a mother would have (prompting a memory of her teaching JARVIS to be polite to Tony's 'dates', even the horrible ones), told him that Tony would be proud of him, and wished him luck.
Then she announced, quite suddenly from Wanda's perspective, that she and Morgan were going to visit Rhodey, and they would probably be staying the night.
"This is a little.. ciudat" Wanda commented, a bit confused, as they waved Pepper and Morgan goodbye.
"Maybe" Vision replied, trying to hide his smile. "But since we have the house to ourselves, how about I make you something nice for dinner?" --
That night, Vision set up a table by the lake, lit a candle, and set down the dish of freshly made Chicken Paprikash. Once he was satisfied with how everything looked, he led Wanda outside.
Her jaw dropped.
Vision rushed to politely pull out her chair for her.
"Your dinner, my lady.."
"Vizh.. this is beautiful.." Wanda slowly moved to sit at the table.
"Thank you."
"W-What's the occasion?"
"You'll see" Vision smiled softly, sitting across from her.
"Is this Paprikash?" Wanda eyed the plate, picking up her knife and fork.
"It is.. I think I got it right this time.." He waited anxiously as she took her first bite.
"Mmm.." Wanda smiled to reassure him. "This is delicious, Vizh. Absolutely perfect."
"Really? Thank you!" Vision's face lit up in a wonderful smile.
Wanda smiled back at him as she ate. Normally, she supposed, it would feel awkward having someone watch you eat when they weren't eating anything themselves, but Wanda was always comfortable with Vision. They co-existed perfectly.
"So" she said when she was near finishing her meal, "Again, Vision.. What is the occasion?"
"A celebration, of sorts.. of a few decisions I have made."
"What decisions?"
"Well.. I have been living closer to a real human life now, I have a family.. and a human with a family should have a family name.. so I was thinking.."
"You want to be a Stark, don't you?" Wanda asked him gently. "That's okay, Vizh. I don't hate the name anymore, you know that."
"I do. But Stark.. that name only represents one part of my family. I was actually thinking of hyphenating.. Stark-Maximoff. I'd like to be Vision Stark-Maximoff. But for that, there's something else I need.." Vision grew nervous now, his hand shaking as it slipped into his pocket. "I actually meant to do this a long time ago.. In Edinburgh, before everything went wrong.. If you'd agreed to stay.. I was going to ask.."
"Vision.." Wanda's heart was racing. He couldn't be doing what it sounded like he was doing.. But suddenly Vision was down on one knee in front of her, opening a small box containing a ring with a shimmering red stone.
"I know this might seem a bit crazy.. We're only just learning just learning what our normal is. But I love you, so much.."
"I love you too.."
"That's all I really need to know. We just.. we work. You and I.. it works. So, Wanda Maximoff.. Will you Marry me?" Vision finished with a hopeful smile. Wanda let out a loud sob, tears streaming down her face. Vision immediately panicked. "Or not! Oh, I'm being stupid, this is much too soon, I should have known that.. mmph.."
Vision's panicked ramble was cut off by Wanda kissing him, deeply, fiercely, and when she finally needed to come up for air, she spoke in a breathless whisper.
"Yes."
Vision's synthetic heart was pounding. He couldn't quite believe what he had heard.
"Did you just say.."
"Yes" Wanda repeated, a bright smile spreading over her face. She stood, pulling him with her, throwing her head back to shout the words into the night sky, leaving him in no doubt. "Yes! Yes, Vision, I will marry you."
"You will? You will! Haha!" Vision lifted Wanda, spinning her around. "I love you!"
"I love you too!" Wanda squealed joyfully. When Vision eventually set her down, she shyly offered her hand, letting him slip the ring onto her finger. "It's beautiful.."
"So are you" Vision smiled.
Wanda looked at him for a while, gazing deeply into his eyes. Cupped his cheek, as if making sure he was real.
"You're here, aren't you?" she asked, almost afraid she was about to wake up from a long, cruel dream.
"Yes" Vision laid his own hand over hers. "I'm here."
"You're mine?"
"I'm yours" Vision nodded. "For as long as you want me."
"Pentru totdeauna.. is forever okay?"
"With you? Forever is perfect."
They stayed there for a long while, until their candle blew out, and the night grew cold. Then, Vision swept Wanda into his arms, carrying her inside. Ready for their forever to begin.

My favorite thing about every single Belmont in Netflix's Castlevania and Nocturne?
Every single initial appearance radiates sad, pathetic energy.
Trevor's bar fight scene was equal parts hilarious and disheartening. This is the Last Belmont? A legendary clan of Vampire Hunters, reduced to a drunken brawler who gets his nuts kicked in so many times?
Julia Belmont? Bodied by hot, gay Dragon Daddy Olrox while her son watches. He brings the direct Belmont line down to two, and traumatizes the kid so hard he has ED—Enchantment Dysfunction until he becomes an adult.
Richter? Yeah! Literally has to have his first true core memory be his mom be fucking owned by the sexiest god damn bloodsucker in history. Little bro's canon event was to watch his mama be crushed.
Juste? Sure his entrance is cool, but then we realize he's also suffering from ED, he sucks at this whole grandfather thing, his wife and bestie killed, and he could never even confront his own blood over the death of his fucking daughter.
I love the fact that every single Belmont makes the worst first impressions. Regardless of sex or gender or age. They just fucking suck when introduced.

Castlevania Nocturne really made every character a bad bitch.
Annette? Baddest Bitch who punches slavers in the throat and gets a reckless hunk to fall for her. She's an earth and a metalbender to boot! Plus did you see her hair?????????? Gorgeous. Stunning. Beloved.
Richter? Bro was fighting like Zuko. While everyone around him like Drolta and Olrox were serving cunt, he was serving hands. E for Everyone. Trevor and Sypha would be so proud.
Juste? Depressed GILF with a glorious beard and hair combo? Who wielded the Belmont Whip like it was nothing? Fucking baddie.
Drolta? PINK FIRE HAIR. HER SHOES WITH NO HEELS. SHE WAS SO FUCKING COOL. I loved her so much. Every single scene she was in was a delight.
Tera? Kindly MILF vibes. The mommy next door. Woof woof bark bark. I would die for her. Kill for her. The Abbott is a fucking idiot for choosing a God who can't save him over Mommy.
Olrox? I'm so normal for him. Trust me. I'm cool. I'm chill. I'm not jealous of Mizrak or anything like that hahahahahahahahahahah. I don't wake up flushed in sweat, thinking I had Olrox wrapped around me. No! Nope. Not one bit. I'm cool. I'm a guy. Hahahaha.
Erzsebet? Look she's obviously a lesbian and has no interest in a schmuck like me, but she's so cool. She's wonderful. I despise her with every fibre of my being, but interwoven in that hatred is admiration. She is that bitch.
Alucard? What the hell am I supposed to talk about?
IT'S ALUCARD.
