When I tell you I screamed seeing our lovely Ms. Clarke rocking those powers and flying in the air......

She absolutely smashed it. Too bad the finale was so short. The fight should’ve been longer. 

G'iah served. She ate. She's the moment.

I just want her to be happy.....

Wanda when she lost Pietro:

Her whole world shattered. She is in agony and disbelief what happened. She felt him die. She felt him draw his last breath. She is enraged. She is broken.

Wanda when she lost Vision:

She just had to kill love of her life so the rest of the universe can be safe. She had to kill the one person that felt like home after Pietro’s death, the one person that gave her comfort and will to live and fight. She had to watch him come back to life and die again. When her time comes, she welcomes death.

Peeping Wanda Maximoff 😂

Wanda Maximoff: He has such a nice physique. 😍😍😍 And those abs...😍😍 and that British voice...😍😍😍

Pietro Maximoff: Hey, save your thirsting over the robot for after we've saved the world. 🤨😒

Wanda Maximoff: You're no fun, you know that? 🙄🤨

Your honor? I love her.

I was meant to rule everything. THE SCARLET WITCH in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

Wooowww........they kill my girl Dany and then show the life journey of her murderer? I'd be surprised if Kit Harington actually gets on board with this, considering he had therapy after GOT finished.

My fucking brain broke just now

[fcparagon]

Oh my God.....

Everything about this is (*chef's kiss*)

in defense of the scarlet witch

i am unwell

but i don't think Wanda was 100% unjustified in what she did. since we've met her in the mcu she's been abused and tormented and forced to watch everyone she loves die.

first, her home is attacked and her parents killed, and she hides under a bed for two days just waiting to die. that alone is a traumatic event worthy of some mental breaks.

but THAN

she's tortured and manipulated and experimented on by HYDRA.

we're never told how long the twins were with Struker, and we don't know what exactly he did to them. but whatever they - and Wanda specifically - endured at the hands of HYDRA must've taken a emotional and physical toll. yet again, a trauma worth lashing out over.

but Wanda doesn't lash out completely because she has one stabilizing force in her life: her brother.

Pietro is selfless and kind, and he's always taking care of Wanda. every problem she has, he fixes. everything she asks of him, he does. they live a life based entirely on a symbiotic, co-dependent relationship.

and than Pietro makes a decision without consulting Wanda.

he sacrifices himself, selfless to the very end. and it seems to be the very first time that selflessness wasn't directed at his sister. it was the very first time Pietro ever saw something as being more important than Wanda.

what a betrayal that must've been. Wanda's the younger twin, she's never before lived in a world where Pietro wasn't by her side. she's never known a single moment when she had to do anything alone. he left her completely by herself, one half of a whole. no roadmap, no hand to hold, no one to kiss her forehead and say I'll fix it

if you ask me, after all she's been through, her Ultron-Fight grieving was an underreaction

her twin is dead and her city is in ruins. she's taken away from everything she's ever known, away from the country her brother and parents are buried in, and taken to a place where she knows no one and nothing.

she's a young woman with the weight of years of anger and trauma on her shoulders. she has no family and new powers she doesn't understand. it's a miracle her mind hadn't broken already.

and than, because of powers she didn't ask for and can't understand yet, she's labled a "weapon of mass destruction"

she's told she's a monster, that she's dangerous and people should fear her. her agency is taken from her on the grounds that she's more weapon than woman.

even through all of this, Wanda keeps her composure, and she's able to find a light in her life. to fill the hole that Pietro left.

for a brief window of time, she's happy. she's content. she's not an Avenger or a prisoner. she's just Wanda. she's in love and she's unbothered.

but Wanda's happiness never lasts.

she's forced into a corner. forced to choose between killing the love of her life and letting the entire universe die. she can't be selfish, she's an Avenger, a hero. and at the core of her being, she's a good person.

she makes an unbearably painful sacrifice - a sacrifice that doesn't even amount to anything - and she bears it.

THAN SHE GETS DUSTED FOR FIVE YEARS!!

and this is the last straw. she's been so strong for so long, fighting off her demons and trying not to let her brokenness show.

she's tried to move on, tried to simply remember the love she once had, but it's all too much. she's so powerful that her long-due mental break manifests itself in something she didn't ever mean to happen.

but she just can't bring herself to stop it. she's finally found a place where she's safe.

she finally has a family. all she's ever really wanted.

and it's taken from her. again.

other people can make all the mistakes they want, be as dangerous and reckless as they want, hurt as many people as they want, and still get to live happily ever after. but not Wanda.

througout Wanda's whole story, she's been searching for hope - in SHEILD/HYDRA, in the Avengers, in Vision - and the black magic of the Darkhold gives her that hope.

but it warps her mind. it seduces her with the promise of that coveted happily ever after. it brings all the worst parts of her into the foreground, all the grief and longing and pain. it changes this beautiful, loving woman into what she always feared she was: the bad guy.

Wanda Maximoff has spent so much time trying to stay strong, trying to ignore all the trauma she's been put through, but when she finally lets herself actually grieve - as what she is, a mourning mother - what does Stephen Strange tell her?

Instead of sympathizing and offering help, he tells her that her children weren't real. In that one sentence he invalidates her pain, and all the other pains that came before it. She's had everything taken from her, and all she's asking is to be given one thing back. She's not asking for much.

She said she didn't want to rule everything, she just wanted to be a wife and a mother, and be loved.

This part of Wanda's story is not a "villian turn" it is the end of a very long rope. She’s been pushed to the breaking point so many times. It is a worn down mind finally snapping.

Wanda Maximoff is not a villian, she's a tragedy.

Wait...WHEN????

my wandavision loving soul when i heard the theme song start to play

[fcparagon]

Word.

If you hate Wanda cause she’s “bad” but defend Loki cause he’s “broken and misunderstood” you’re a hypocrite.

I love them

It was on this day seven years ago that Wanda Maximoff fell in love with Vision

Wanda Maximoff: 😳 OH NO, HE'S HOT!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

Wanda Maximoff: I looked in your head, and saw annihilation. 😍😍

Vision: Look again. 😏

Clint Barton: Yeah. Her seal of approval means jack to me. 🙄

Wanda Maximoff: Excuse me, I'm flirting here. 🤨🤨🤨

Bonus:

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[fcparagon]

I knew it.

[fcparagon]

What if that shot of the camera zooming through Wanda's eyes, is actually Professor Xavier trying to stop her from attacking telepathically?

[fcparagon]

PREACH

It's really amusing how people absolutely love Loki, almost dismiss his actions and feel a lot of empathy towards him, but when it comes to Wanda y'all talk about morals and how she hurt people. As if you guys have never felt desperate and did something extremely selfish without realising you were hurting people along the way.

[fcparagon]

Also, Wanda didn't consciously take these people as hostages though. The moment she realized what she was doing, she tore down the hex. Meanwhile, Strange did everything knowing that it could go all wrong for everyone.

Before anyone pulls the "Wanda held a town hostage!" Argument. Strange said "I'll risk the entire universe in a moment of hubris disguised as helping a kid and his friends go to college. I am fully aware of the consequences should this go wrong and I'm gonna do it anyway just to prove I can."

Wanda's trailer line is 100% warrented.

I knew it! I knew this looked like the Westview house. Shit! I don’t think I can watch her being sad all over again.

Guys, I don't think I'm emotionally prepared to revisit Westview... 😭
