I'm now very amused with Agatha who thinks she's the most subtle witch ever, ESPECIALLY compared to Wanda, suddenly being super UNsubtle in that scene in the new Thrall chapter.
And then Wanda's POV in the chapter remembering absolutely NONE of Agatha's very blatant Wanda. Trust me. It's just your bestie Agnes. Trust me. TRUST ME. and instead remembering a very subtle conversation where she chooses to eventually trust Agnes at the very end of it.
Which either says that Agatha, even when she thinks she's being the most blatant ever, can't be anything BUT subtle.
Or Wanda is just THAT oblivious. Which. Honestly. Feels like the correct answer here.

Celebrity spats of the decade from Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden to the Wagatha Christie row – The Sun
THE New Year is almost upon us and a new decade is about to begin – so what better time for warring celebs to kiss and make up? From the recent ‘War of the Wags’ to Katie Price picking a fight with pretty much everyone, the 2010s have thrown up their fair share of showbiz spats. 21 Rebecca Vardy and Coleen had the mother of all falloutsWho can forget the epic showdown between Robbie Williams and Liam Gallagher – that nearly ended in a punch up – and the bad blood between Katie Price and Katie Hopkins? As 2020 dawns, here’s a reminder of the top celebrity feuds from the past 10 years – some of which are still going strong.Rebekah Vardy vs Coleen Rooney 21 Coleen’s Wagatha Christie act led to a very nasty fallout21 Coleen’s post made headlines after she accused her fellow WAGThese WAGs undoubtedly take home the prize for most heated celebrity spat of 2019. It started when Coleen Rooney took to Twitter, accusing Rebekah Vardy of leaking stories from Coleen’s private Instagram account to the press. Coleen revealed that she had blocked all of her followers, barring one, to find the culprit. “It’s ……..Rebekah Vardy’s account” is now etched into the celebrity feud history books forever. Rebekah replied by saying she doesn’t “need the money” and was “disgusted” by the accusation. The ‘Wagatha Christie’ war has since calmed down, with a source telling Closer that Coleen wants to bury the axe. Amanda Holden vs Phillip Schofield 21 Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden had a humdinger over her presenting slot on This Morning21 Phillip Schofield was upset by Amanda’s commentsIn second place for this year is Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden and ITV presenter Phillip Schofield. It started in November, 2018, when Amanda was preparing to fill in for Holly Willoughby on This Morning, but lost out to singer Rochelle Humes. A source told The Sun that the choice to ditch Amanda had been “heavily influenced by Phil”. Phillip denied the allegations, and the following summer Amanda confirmed the feud on her radio show, telling co-star Jamie Theakston that an “olive branch” had been offered via text. Apparently, Phillip never replied. Gemma Collins vs Jason Gardiner 21 Jason came under fire after giving the GC a tongue-lashingIn January 2019, Gemma Collins revealed that someone was selling stories about her “diva” behaviour on ITV’s Dancing On Ice. She later accused the show’s judge, Jason Gardiner, who told The Sun that the reality TV star is “lazy” and “mediocre”. He also compared her to a refrigerator, to which Gemma retaliated by screaming “you’re boring”. It didn’t end well for Jason. In August, with rumours that ITV bosses “were secretly plotting to replace him”, the 47-year-old announced that he was leaving after 13 years on the show. Gemma reignited the feud earlier this month, telling Celebsnow that Jason is a “bully”. Piers Morgan vs Little Mix 21 Piers Morgan and Little Mix fell out over the album cover for Strip21 Piers lashed out at Little Mix in a tweetPiers Morgan is no stranger to celebrity spats, having picked fights with everyone from model Emily Ratajkowski to actress Jameela Jamil. His feud with Little Mix began in November 2018 when the Good Morning Britain host accused the girlband of using nudity to promote the release of their single, Strip. Little Mix responded in an interview by claiming they have no time for Piers, to which he tweeted: “I can’t hang out with those foul-mouthed, talentless, clothes-allergic little dimwits? Gutted”. Little Mix reignite feud with Piers Morgan as they mock him and use footage of him on their tour Ariana Grande then joined in, slamming Piers for his comments, saying that women can be “naked and talented”. The war continued in 2019, when Little Mix threw some not-so-subtle shade on stage during the opening number of their world tour in Madrid, by airing clips of Piers demanding an apology. He shared the video on Twitter and accused the band of using him to “make their tour a success”. But Little Mix called his bluff, saying that both Piers and ITV had signed off on the footage. Charlotte Crosby vs Vicky Pattinson 21 Charlotte and Vicky went from pals to enemiesThey started out as fast friends, partying and bedding co-stars on MTV’s Geordie Shore. But when Vicky Pattinson left the show in 2014, she criticised it by saying the experience was “toxic” during a podcast interview with Jaime Laing and Francis Boulle, called Private Parts. Charlotte Crosby, who left in 2016, defended the show, and the aftercare that she had received. The spat continued when Charlotte dated Vicky’s ex-boyfriend, Stephen Bear in 2017. Both of the stars also released workout DVDs in 2018 – and each criticised the others’ work – with Vicky accusing Charlotte of “emulating parts” of her career. Fences were mended in January 2019, when Charlotte came out in support of Vicky after the 32-year-old was body-shamed online. The pair now appear to be on good terms.Katie Price vs Katie Hopkins 21 The two Katies have a long-running feud which dates back to Celebrity Big Brother21 Katie Hopkins referred to Katie Price’s boob jobs in this catty tweetCredit: TwitterIf there’s a celebrity known for her catfights, it’s Katie Price – with Jodie Marsh, Kelly Brook and ex-husband Peter Andre all featuring on the list. But few will forget her most epic showdown with long-standing enemy Katie Hopkins, which started when the pair appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in 2015. Price called Hopkins “two-faced”, while Hopkins mocked Price for naming one of her five children “Bunny”. By the end of CBB, they appeared to have patched things up, but in 2017 an explosive Twitter spat ensued, with Hopkins saying Price’s calendar shots looked “photoshopped”. Fast-forward to present day, and the feud is still going strong. Just last month, Price criticised ‘vile’ Hopkins for her behaviour back on CBB. Danny Dyer vs James Jordan 21 Outspoken stars Danny and James had a war of words2121 The two men exchanged insults over social media in 2015Back in 2015, Danny Dyer and James Jordan started a feud that was more akin to two lads picking a fight after too many pints in the pub. James tweeted about Danny’s appearance on Strictly Come Dancing, where the EastEnders actor was supporting his co-star Kellie Bright, saying “Is Danny Dyer on Strictly???” This was followed by a series of insults flung back and forth about the others’ career, as well as Danny calling James an “irritating c***”. James then decided to kick things up a notch by bringing up Danny’s former drug use. Then, just as quickly as it had happened, it was over.One Direction vs The Wanted 21  21 Zayn Malik hit out at Max George in a series of digs21 Furious Max gave as good as he got in the rowCredit: TwitterIn 2012, the battle of the boybands ensued between One Direction and The Wanted. It began with a seemingly innocent comment from Zayn Malik about Max George being a “geek”, to which Max retaliated, tweeting: “I was just starting to like you and your RnB songs, too”. Then Zayn’s bandmate Louis Tomlinson jumped in to throw some insults of his own, but the situation didn’t really heat up until Zayn tweeted “alright chlamydia boy” to Max. Subtle shade about hairstyles and exes followed, and at one point there were even chats about meeting up for a “boxing” match, to settle the argument once and for all. Liam Gallagher vs Robbie Williams 21 Robbie challenged Liam to a boxing matchIn 1995, Robbie had a blossoming friendship with Oasis brothers Liam and Noel, but by the noughties things had soured, and this is now one of the longest-standing feuds in celebrity history. During the 2000 Brit Awards, Robbie asked the crowd “Would anybody like to see me fight Liam?” At the time, the Oasis singer was dating Robbie’s ex fiancée Nicole Appleton. The public attacks continued, with Liam calling Robbie a “fat f***ing idiot” after the former Take That singer insulted his brother, Noel. 21 Liam and Robbie squared up over social mediaCredit: TwitterIt continues to this day; during his Las Vegas residency in March 2019, Robbie asked fans to start a hashtag for “Liam Gallagher was s*** tonight”. It almost resulted in real fisticuffs – with Robbie planning to book a professional boxing match and promising to “knock him out in the third round.” But wife Ayda called a stop to the whole thing when she publicly labelled the spat “embarrassing” and “lame.” Cheryl Cole vs Cher Lloyd 21 Cheryl turned on her former protegee over ‘live’ singing jibeFrom bickering with fellow X Factor judges Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell to catfights with former Girls Aloud bandmate, Nadine Coyle, Cheryl Cole has been in a lot of feuds. But her spat with Cher Lloyd, the budding singer who took part in series 7 in 2010, is one of the most memorable – because Cheryl was the budding singer’s mentor. Two years after appearing on the show, Cher launched an attack by saying Cheryl “doesn’t sing live”. Cheryl retaliated with a warning via Twitter: “Be careful who you kick on your way up… They kick you twice as hard on your way down… #UnappreciationIsUgly.” The mother-of-one also did an interview with GQ magazine, saying that Cher has a lot left to learn about manners in the music industry. This story is one of few on our list that has a happy ending. During an appearance on Loose Women in 2016, Cher said the pair had “made up ages ago”. 21 Cheryl hit out at ‘unappreciative’ CherCredit: Twitter  Holly Willoughby dismisses Phillip Schofield feud claims as she shares video of them singing and hugging WHAT HAPPENS IN A YEAR?

For the prompt ideas for December, maybe a bit of a fluff fic about Wanda and Agatha. It’s implied that it’s a while after Westview and Agatha has been teaching Wanda and they’ve gotten close and after a lesson in the winter, they cuddle in bed and watch TV (maybe more if you want 👀)? Kinda vague but maybe something around that. You could even take a stab at doing something similar with Agatha and Rio (and maybe Nicholas) and kind of guess what her characters like, but it’s understandable if you don’t want to since we don’t really know much about her haha
HAVE DONE.
...maybe less fluff than you might have wanted? Maybe I will return to them and fluff later. IDK.
BUT! You can read it here or on AO3 here!

Thrall of Magic for WIP Wednesday!
WIP Wednesday Game | The Thrall of Magic
Can do and have done! Here are your sentences, and thanks so much for asking!! :D
Agatha Harkness has never believed in miracles, not the way that she believes in magic.  Miracles imply that something impossible has happened because someone – or something – else has gotten involved.  To a lot of people, what Agatha sees as magic would be interpreted as a miracle, something impossible happening.  But Agatha knows magic so well that she very rarely believes in the impossible, and so cannot – and does not – believe in miracles, not when such miraculous happenings could just be a very subtle use of magic.
But she looks at Wanda Maximoff, who does not trust her, who believes that she could be trying to kill her at any moment, and sees her eating, and she thinks – if she isn’t using magic to force this change, then wouldn’t this be considered a miracle?

Could I get Thrall of Magic for WIP Wednesday please?
WIP Wednesday Game | The Thrall of Magic
Yes, you absolutely can! Here are your words!
But when Agatha stalks off into the kitchen, half-feigning anger (lies are always at their strongest when they are half full of truth), all she does is conjure up a second bowl of oatmeal to match the first and stands just inside the doorframe to stare at Wanda.  Her eyes narrow as the great prophesied Scarlet Witch struggles to eat, first staring at the bowl in her lap before tentatively lifting the spoon to her lips, then gagging on the bite before forcing it down.  But she gets it down.  She takes another bite.
That’s…something.
Agatha starts to stick her fingers into the magic surrounding both of them and then hesitates.  Even without calling it to her for greater understanding, she feels it swirling around her, wanting to help her, wanting to….
To what?
Best not to look.  For once in her life, after months of trying to quit cold turkey, Agatha can resist the impulse.  Best not to look.

WIP Wednesday Game | The Thrall of Magic
Can do and have done! Here you go!
But Wanda doesn’t take her medicine, even though she goes upstairs, and Wanda won’t eat any of Agatha’s food, even though she’s clearly hungry and food will help with her hangover, because Wanda apparently thinks that the witch who hasn’t killed her yet would have more fun poisoning her food than actually trying to help her.  The gall of it sits deep in Agatha’s stomach, churns there the same way she once would have churned milk into butter, turning what might once have been anxieties into frustrations instead.  Annoyances.  Her unsubtle attempts to kill Wanda in a subtle attempt to get Wanda to put up the protection spells that every witch should know how to make have had more of an effect then every other time Agatha could have killed Wanda and didn’t, more than Agatha even trying to point that out.
“I don’t want to hurt you, love.  You might not trust me enough to believe that, but—”  Agatha cuts herself off because Wanda huffs and crosses her arms and acts very much like she won’t believe that and not only won’t believe it but feels annoyed with Agatha for even suggesting it.  “Fine.”  She shoves the bowl of oatmeal she had been eating from into Wanda’s lap.  “Just take mine, hon.  I obviously didn’t poison that one.”
“You really think I’m going to—”
Agatha shoots her a look.  “I’m not going to jeopardize my life just to kill you, dear.  What kind of idiot do you take me for?”  She pushes herself up off the couch and shoves her hands into her pockets.  “You’re the superhero here.  Not me.”

WIP Wednesday Game | The Thrall of Magic
Here you go! Thanks so much for sending this in; I needed the quick kick in the pants to get this chapter started. (It's a bit intimidating trying to wrap this one up satisfactorily.)
In the morning, they fight.
If it can even still be called morning anymore, given just how long Wanda tries to sleep away what Agatha knows is a hangover.  Agatha doesn’t have one herself, but she’d placed a glass of water and some pills next to the bed when she left in the hope that Wanda would take care of herself before coming downstairs.
(In the hope that maybe Wanda would remember something of the night before.)
But Wanda doesn’t remember anything, doesn’t even remember that she’d made her shirt mimic Agatha’s herself, and from her reactions, she certainly doesn’t remember that Agatha is, well, Agatha.
It’s disappointing, to say the least.  Even more disappointing is that after all that effort Agatha put into teaching Wanda to trust her again yesterday, it suddenly doesn’t matter.  She sighs, grits her teeth, and this time, when Wanda snipes at her, she says, unable to keep the bitterness out of her voice, “Wanda, dear, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it by now.”  She gestures to the shirt with one hand.  “That was the point of the shirt, hon.”
The revelation of her magic for something so simple and mundane as—
It doesn’t matter if Wanda doesn’t remember.

WIP Wednesday Game | The Thrall of Magic
Here you go! Thanks so much for sending this in!
Agatha is certain that if Wanda believed she could make everyone safe from herself, then she would, to her own detriment.  She would think that is something she could revoke at any time, cast a massive spell, and realize much later that all she has done is broken herself.  Someone would come to find her.  Someone would come to kill her.
And if she didn’t have any better reason to maintain her life, Wanda would let them.
No.  Best to tell Sarah that this is something that can’t be done again.  Better still to not let Wanda ever know that she did it in the first place.
Then Sarah takes Agatha’s hand in her own, gentle, and lifts it until her now healed wrist rests in the air between them.  “Could she hurt you the way I hurt you?”

....
Something something Agatha being very good at subtle with magic but then turning around and being bold and loud in her normal life.
Something something Wanda being the exact opposite.
Something something magic interacting with its casters completely counter to how they interact with everyone else.
Something something magic using Wanda's boldness to pull out Agatha's and vice versa.

I don't know if you talked about this already, but that extra scene on Thrall made me go back to Kisses to see if it really was new or i just didn't remembered, and Wanda seemed to skip over the whole thing, as if the kiss never happened
Did Wanda just did this unconsciously and doesn't remember? because that'd be concerning
Or Wanda is just kind of an unreliable narrator? If so, I wonder if there's anything else she just skipped over
And also, does Sarah remember? or just Agatha?
sorry for the silly questions, just something i got fixated on :p
Absolutely no worries! I haven't talked about this (I don't think?), so these are all good questions!
Actually, you have caught the thing!
One of the main things I struggled with when writing Thrall was making myself adhere exactly to what happened in Kisses with no deviations. I found that doing so...really stifled the scenes that we're seeing from Agatha's perspective because they weren't allowed to breathe and be their own thing.
So! While this is probably the biggest deviation from the original, it isn't the first (and it probably won't be the last).
For instance, the entire second chapter is a new addition. Wanda never addresses this, never references it; it isn't important to her the way that it is to Agatha. (In the original, this was me adhering strictly to the WandaVision schedule - that decade only lasted one episode, we saw the entirety of that episode in the show, etc. I gave myself more freedom to deviate in Thrall.) I also added in a new scene in chapter four - Agatha checking, again, to see if Wanda knew what she was doing - and another at the beginning of chapter five.
In most cases, those additions are Agatha focusing on moments that weren't as important to Wanda. In the same way that there are scenes in Kisses that aren't in Thrall - the beginning of seven, for instance, where Wanda learns what Agnes has been doing in Westview while they're still carrying extra stuff Sarah needed them to purchase for the party. This is an important conversation for Wanda. As is the entirety of the conversation of Agnes getting her to stay at Sarah's party - even before the glamification scene. These aren't important conversations for Agatha, so they don't show up.
To be fair, also contextually, these conversations are important from a narrative perspective re: Wanda's relationship with Agatha. They're important for her character development. However, they're not important for Agatha's character journey, so they aren't in Thrall.
But those are additions, not deviations, which is really what you're asking about! (Actually. Rereading your question. This would fall under stuff Wanda skipped over, so you asked about this, too! I'm not as thorough here.)
So. Deviations from the original script. :D
In the third chapter - and again in the sixth - there are moments where Wanda glitches due to the weight of maintaining the Hex. In the show, we see the world glitching around her; in Thrall, Wanda is glitching. She doesn't remember what happens around her during the glitches; Agatha does.
(The third chapter also gives a bit of a mindmeld where Agatha's narrative is exactly the same as Wanda's POV. (It isn't even about Agnes. / (At least, Wanda tells herself that.) / It is about being so horny Wanda would go to town on a hot dog if she'd been given the opportunity.) But this is not what you're asking about. >.>;;;;;)
But chapter three also gives a second kiss where Kisses only gives one. ("I'm stopping," Agatha purrs before kissing her again, much more chastely this time.... / Wanda rubs her finger in circles along Agatha's waist. "No," she murmurs, looking down at her with large green eyes, "you're not...." in Thrall vs. "I'm stopping." / "No, you're not." in Kisses.)
Chapter five has an additional "It's an instinct, the purest form of it, when Agatha curls against her again and wraps her arms gentle around the small of Wanda's waist. "It's okay, hon," she says. "You don't have to--" / "Do you want anything?" Wanda repeats, voice hushed through gritted teeth. Her knuckles grow white. It has Agatha replying to Wanda's request to wear her shirt by telling her "Put it on, dear. You're shivering." instead of bringing up Vision and telling her she's attractive and flirting with her.
Even the conversation leading up to the glamification is different - in Kisses, it's less blatant in terms of the point here is Wanda choosing to trust Agnes because, ironically, Agatha is more subtle and plays naive, but in Thrall, where Agatha constantly narrates how subtle she is, she's not subtle. She literally tells Wanda to trust her, tells her Agnes won't ever hurt her, and then makes a point of pulling out Wanda's insecurities and telling her that she trusts Wanda to not hurt her, even if Wanda says she shouldn't.
In most cases, I would say that the deviation is similar to the additions - things Agatha picks up on that are important to her that aren't for Wanda. How a lot of times when you talk to multiple people about the same event, they remember things differently. Even when you go see a movie with someone, each of you will likely pick up on different scenes or moments, some of the details you might remember differently (I ran into this when I was writing Glass Onion meta - and I distinctly remember having to go back and edit some meta because I'd remembered something wrong). This is basically what you're seeing in these two fics: Wanda and Agatha remember things differently because different scenes or moments are highlighted for them.
In the case of this particular moment, however.
An additional fun thought.
Wanda cuts off the narrative in Kisses. There's an abrupt sort of--
...before she gently presses her thumb on Wanda's lower lip, parting them, and leans forward to-- / The door creaks open....
It's possible that Wanda just doesn't want the reader to know. That's a big fourth wall breaking thought, though, and would require Wanda to have the meta-textual knowledge that someone externally is paying attention to the narrative. (Or at least a subconscious awareness of it.) Similar to how she could rewind and change things in the Hex. The story itself could be a whole other form of Hex.
(That wasn't the intent, but you could read it that way.)
Or, in the moment, Wanda blocking it out of her mind because she's trying very hard to not do anything with Agnes because she's very aware that Agatha is stuck in Agnes and would probably not consent to any of this stuff, which is why drunk!Wanda totally has that entire other scene we haven't gotten to in Thrall yet because being drunk lowers your inhibitions.
Wanda doesn't want to think of herself like that and doesn't want to be like that. Especially in Westview. Where she very unintentionally definitely did a lot of things to people they did not consent to - non-sexually, of course. But she did mind control a lot of people and made them do a lot of things they didn't want to do. And she doesn't want to be that person.
Even if a part of her - as brought up in that scene in Kisses that we haven't gotten to in Thrall yet - absolutely thinks that Agatha deserves it.
BUT YEAH TL;DR - there are a lot of scenes like that and it's mostly prompted by me not wanting to stifle myself by forcing myself to keep everything exactly the same and the different people remember things differently phenomenon that you see play out IRL.
I wouldn't say Wanda's unreliable. She just remembers the events differently. ^^
(I don't know if Sarah remembers or not. The impression is that Wanda rewound time. But she doesn't have that ability without a Time Stone (or outside of the Hex), does she? Food for thought!)

"gently down the stream" this week?
WIP Wednesday Game | Life is but a Dream and The Thrall of Magic
Have done, and here are your (so many, I'm sorry) additional words from thrall!
An hour or so into the party, Sarah hooks her elbow through Agatha’s as though to lead her out onto the dance floor (that Agatha started, much to no one’s surprise) but instead drags her back to the bedroom.  She only releases her to shut the door behind them, and then turns to Agatha with narrowed eyes.  “Now—”
“Look, hon, if you wanted me all to yourself,” Agatha starts to say, then pauses just long enough to let her eyes sweep Sarah’s scrawny form, how appetizing she appears with her hair coiffed the way it is, with the pretty pink dress she’s wrapped herself in.
“Agnes.”  Sarah huffs and crosses her arms.
For all that it was a joke, Agatha offers her a smug grin.  “You look good, hon.  But I’m sure Harold has already told you that.”
Sarah’s gaze grows hard.  “I didn’t drag you back here to talk about me.  I want to know what was going on between you and Wanda.”
“Oh, well.”  Agatha turns toward the door.  “That’s really none of your business, dear, so if you don’t mind me.”  She places her hand on the doorknob, only for Sarah to grab her wrist, fingernails digging into her skin.  Her teeth grit together – she does not think of how her mother once punished her – and growls out, “I don’t think that was your best idea, hon.”
“Then quit trying to run from me.”
Agatha breathes in magic.  It fills her lungs, threads through her veins, sprouts sharp along her nails.  “Sarah Proctor,” she continues to growl, “I may not have seemed a witch to you, and I may have been gentler with you than Wanda was, but that does not mean I’m not still a witch, and if you do not let me go, hon, then I will be forced to—”
Sarah’s grip on her wrist tightens.  Odd, for someone who is so afraid of magic, to instinctively keep putting herself in its way.  “Agnes, she doesn’t know who you are.  She thinks you’re like we were.”
“And you know this,” Agatha says, finally turning to meet Sarah’s eyes with her own, knowing that there are spots of deep purple within them, “but haven’t pretended to ask her about me in the least, have you?”  She tears her wrist out of Sarah’s grip, feeling her skin tear, and pulls herself up to her full height.  “The entire town knows what she meant to do to me, knows that she left me as she once had you, but you wouldn’t fight her for me, would you?”
“Agnes, that’s not the same as—”
“Leave us be, Sarah Proctor.”  Agatha glares at her.  “We have danced this dance before, and Wanda cannot hurt me.”  She runs her fingers along her wrist, tucking into magic, and mutters under her breath as her skin stitches itself back together as whole and imperfect as it was before.
Sarah stares at Agatha’s wrist.  “What happened to you,” she says calmly, “in the Hex?”  Then she glances up and meets Agatha’s gaze, holding it with her own.  “Why can’t Wanda hurt you?”

Belated WIP Wednesday request for inklings please?
WIP Wednesday Game | Bearial and The Thrall of Magic
Have done, and here are your additional words from thrall!
This doesn’t change the fact that the door shouldn’t be opening.  Agatha told Sarah they were almost done, she told her they would be down shortly, but here Sarah is, clearing her throat in a small, embarrassed sort of sound, eyes glaring daggers at Agatha.  She isn’t even supposed to be here.
How much did Wanda change?
Agatha tugs, harsh, on one of the threads of magic entangling her, and she almost hears it sniggering, the way it vibrates against her fingertips.  It isn’t funny, she thinks, wondering if it can hear her if she doesn’t speak aloud.  It isn’t funny at all.

Here you go!
Agatha runs a hand through Wanda’s hair again and smiles, soft up at her.  Then she catches a flash of color threaded through Wanda’s hair – a color that shouldn’t be there – and her eyes widen.  “Hold on, hon, I think I…I think I got some of your lipstick in your hair.  I guess I didn’t think that one through.”  She giggles – giggles like a little girl – and hates the sound of it.
Wanda turns to Sarah’s mirror, threads her hand through her hair, and notes the differences.  “I think you got a little on my nose, too.”  Then she snaps her fingers – just like that, once, a sharp crack of a sound, and they’re back the way they were just before Agatha kissed her, with Wanda’s hands on her waist and—
The door creaks open.
Wanda jumps back, away from Agatha, and hides her face under the swathes of fabric about her neck.
