Doctor's Check Up- Network- Text

Hey everyone.

So, that was a really trying couple weeks.
I just wanted to remind everyone that if they need anything they can drop by the hospital.

Whether you got banged up, or just want to talk about what happened, I'm here. Or you can reach out to anyone else around here, or whoever you trust.

We gotta support each other, right?

Everyone take care, and check in.

[It takes a little time for Billy to head over, trying to limit the teleportation in case something happens and he needs the energy, letting himself in once he arrives. He still looks a little bit sheepish, not quite sure how to behave around his not-mother. He didn't really have a grasp on how to behave around his OWN Wanda yet, without throwing in the multiverse. But it's getting easier.]

It's just me. [There's only so many people it could be, but Billy still feels the need to announce himself.] I brought some cookies. I think I've seen people have them with tea in shows and stuff?

[She still appreciates it, even if Billy has a very distinct psychic signature. She's still feeling a bit jumpy after recent events.

Wanda feels a little of that awkwardness herself, but she hopes it doesn't show as she goes to hug him. She doesn't know how to be a good not-mother or 'aunt,' especially under circumstances of interdimensional kidnapping, so all she can do is try her best to support them.]

I was thinking it would have been better with snacks. This is perfect.

The tea should be ready soon if you want to sit down.

[And if he does, he might have a little dragon chirping at him for petting. Thistle is always happy for guests.]

[Billy sits, and gives a small smile at the dragon, scritching under its chin.]

I always wanted to pet Kitty Pryde's dragon back home but that never really panned out. How'd you end up with Thistle?

[Thistle trills happily, stretching and spreading her wings.]

There are so many strange creatures on Naviadna. Some are beautiful but some are...not very nice. I found Thistle as a baby in the forest. She was hurt and alone and I couldn't leave her.

I brought her home to Vision and we took care of her. She's stayed with us ever since.

Naviadna, that's...where they had you before, or where...you guys settled down after?

[It's a complicated story, and Billy's only heard pieces of it here and there.]

It's sounds like some kind of fairytale.

We visited it just before we broke free. It was a singing planet, what the core of the Agrii's ship will become one day. It was...more comfortable to have powers in a place like that. The planet supported us.

It was wonderful. Beautiful and strange, but wonderful.

What is a...singing planet? I kind of...never really got that.

Did you get a chance to see the core on the Agrii ship? The one that sang in your mind?

[His head tilts, but he shakes his head.]

No, I stayed back to watch the kid and the ships, I never-...how does it- like...the data points?

[It's an awkward guess, but the closest he has to something like he imagines that sensation.]

No, it...it might be easier if I show you.

[There aren't words in any language Wanda knows for some of these concepts. She can try to explain around it, but it doesn't really get the point across.]

May I?

Oh-uh-

[Billy hesitates a moment, flushing, but he gives a quick nod. He was pretty sure couldn't block her out if he tried, but he appreciates the ask, looking a little unsure as to what to expect but shifting closer.]

Yeah, go ahead.

Don't worry, this won't hurt.

[One moment Wanda is reaching out, directing tendrils of power--

--and the next, everything has shifted and Billy is seeing an entirely different world through Wanda's eyes. It's a beach on an alien planet and Wanda's sipping on a brightly-colored slushie that's definitely tasty, but also definitely not an Earth flavor. There's a dim psychic buzz from the other beachgoers, as well as one brighter point that feels like Sansa. But under that is a song. It's not like a song stuck in your head, and somehow it's not irritating at all. It's soothing, comforting.

And past-Wanda is also aware in this moment of how much better her powers feel. Stronger, yes, because she's had to walk quite a ways to get drinks for herself and Sansa but can still find her way back easily. But they're also more easily controlled. The crowd doesn't bother her as much as it might normally.

The vision fades a little later and they're back in her kitchen.]

And that is why I had to stay. Everything was just...better there.

Oh-

[It's strange. Not at all like when Emma Frost had taken hold of his and Tommy's mind, but still a sensation he wasn't sure he could fight if he wanted.

He could feel it, and even after the vision fades Billy's left blinking as he tries to process.]

...wow. That was-... [He touches his forehead and looks to her curiously] Is that what it's like for you? Always? [Not the singing planet part, obviously, but...feeling the others like that.]
