Do we know what happens to people who disappear? Are they safe?

[Everything is fine.]

Pietro always told me to just close my eyes

[Then again, strict safety measures weren't exactly at the top of Strucker's priority list as long as the twins didn't come to permanent harm - neither of them had any special protective gear.]

[doubled_speed]

Wow that is SUPER not safe. I mean, this is carrying you at WAY faster speeds. A single stone could put an eye out.

[seeingscarlet]

You know I can shield us, yes?

[doubled_speed]

Wait, you can?

[seeingscarlet]

Your Wanda can't make energy shields?

[doubled_speed]

I mean, she can use her hex bolts to deflect things and sometimes make energy shields, but I didn't think she could make ones that MOVE.

[seeingscarlet]

It's centered on me. It will move with us

[doubled_speed]

Dude, that is SO COOL.

[seeingscarlet]

[?????]

Is it really so uncommon where you're from?

[doubled_speed]

actually yeah
except for mutants who specifically shield

[seeingscarlet]

[This is so weird. She's grown so used to thinking of herself as lesser by comparison in all ways the more she's learned about the other Wanda.]

it is just not very good with electricity

better than if I get hit directly but it won't last long. maybe a few hits at most

I don't think we need to worry about that today but you should know

[doubled_speed]

[Not lesser. Just different. And with better taste in clothes. Tommy would stand on that hill and die on it.]

I generate a good bit of static when i run
it going to last?

[seeingscarlet]

[Some things should just never be worn in public...]

I don't know. Is it going to shock me?

[doubled_speed]

[Yeah, and that leotard DEFINITELY has that problem. And the head dress. Oh god.]

my suit tends to resist that build up because I'm grounded, so you should be okay
but the shield wouldn't be touching us so it might.

[seeingscarlet]

My shield can take more than I can but we should test it to be safe

[doubled_speed]

very sciency
yeah we can do that.

[seeingscarlet]

Better to know now

[doubled_speed]

rather than learning in an emergency? yeah that makes sense

[seeingscarlet]

I tried to fight after I got shocked once. Bad things happened

I don't want that to happen here too

[doubled_speed]

yeah, I get that
anyway tell me where you are and we'll meet up to test and then go find Pops

[seeingscarlet]

I'm still at home

[oh no she only has like...what, three seconds? to try to make herself look presentable, doesn't she?]

[doubled_speed]

okay
tell me when you're ready and i'll come fetch you then

[seeingscarlet]

give me ten minutes

unless you want me to talk to the agrii first

[doubled_speed]

It's up to you, right?

[seeingscarlet]

[There's a notable pause.]

I don't think anyone wants me talking to the agrii right now

["""talking"""]
