All I can feel is my pain.

Why? Has someone hurt you? [Because if they have, they're dead.]

Spoilers?

[theweirdone]

[She didn't look at him. She couldn't.]

No, not exactly...

[Not physically, at least.]

Re: nah, it's ok. I've seen the film.

[mercur]

Tell me. [He needed to know. No one was going to hurt his sister when he was still alive.]

[theweirdone]

[She opened and closed her mouth, and just shook her head in response, because. She couldn't get the words out.]

[redhourglass]

I'm sorry.

( not strictly her fault - ok, not even close to her fault - but she's still sorry. )

[theweirdone]

[It wasn't the Avengers' fault, as much as she'd like to blame them. Wanda couldn't even strictly hate Tony Stark as much as she did before.]

You don't need to be sorry.

[redhourglass]

It's what people say.

( you know. when someone close to you dies. )

[theweirdone]

It was our fault, we did this. No one should be sorrier than we.

[And she is. Nothing can stop this feeling.]

[redhourglass]

Maybe some of it. But being used doesn't make everything your fault.

( just like being a part of the avengers doesn't make everyone who died in New York her personal burden to bear no matter how much she carried it )

[has_no_strings]

You needn't worry, Wanda. I know ways of fixing that...

[theweirdone]

[She just looked at him, because part of her still wanted to believe him.]

[quicksliver]

[ He's just going to slip his hand into yours because...

Well he's aware of what happened. Unfortunately.]

[theweirdone]

[She's going to grasp your hand back and not let go.]

[fathers_hair]

[Wanda is Wanda, no matter the universe. Her pain is his.]

I... Wanda, I wish I knew what I might say to ease you pain...

[theweirdone]

[She will smile in appreciation to him. Because she can feel that connection between them, even if he's not the same. How could she not?]

There's nothing that can fix this.

[fathers_hair]

[He quietly worries for these new Wanda's. His own has shown to be... highly unstable, during periods of loss and grief, with consequences for everyone. And she is his sister. Her pain has always been his own.]

You are a strong woman, Wanda. You will overcome this pain.

[theweirdone]

[This was a loss she didn't think she'd ever really overcome.]

I can only go forward. If it was anything else, I could have hope, but for this...

[She couldn't even say it.]

[fathers_hair]

My Wanda has known great loss too.

[So much loss. Her husband, even if he never approved of the damned synthazoid. Her children. The father who had raised them. The man they had thought was their father. So much more.]

And she is still here, still strong. You will be too.

[trashlordofthesith]

[oh wow so you're giving him weird vibes in the Force]

Your pain...your anger...

It makes you powerful.

[theweirdone]

[She didn't feel very powerful right now. Just anger and anguish and-- she didn't even know.]

[reasonability]

It hurts to lose someone.
