By Request: Scarlet Witch/Captain America

[lilacsigil]

jazzypom requested "Wanda/Captain America where she mind 'roofies him'" and I just so happened to have these issues: Captain America and the Falcon #6 and #7, part of Avengers Disassembled. Five full pages, one partial page and one cover from one issue, three full pages and one partial page from the next.




Cap and the Falcon have got themselves into a big mess involving Naval intelligence and a Super-Sailor, and have found what they think is a deadly bio-engineered virus. Wanda and Hank Pym show up to help.



Later, Sam has had to run from Navy helicopters and Steve is taking a cab to the Wakandan embassy, as the Wakandans are going to help work out what's going on with the virus they found. Things start to go a bit strange.



Steve has visions of WWII including Bucky's death, and punches out the window of the cab to get away. Feeling a bit better, he goes to the Wakandan embassy. Wanda is there helping Hank Pym and Steve has another vision of Bucky's death and being in the ice. Wanda shakes him and asks what's wrong.








The next morning, Wanda has been sleeping on Cap's couch and is wearing his underwear. He makes her coffee and she talks about being a starving Gypsy (the word she uses) kid and never feeling safe.





Cap starts to have weird flashbacks again - this time he's been pulled out of the ice, but he's not breathing. Fortunately, someone knows CPR...



Later that day, they meet up at the Avengers building, and Cap runs over to say hello and tries to kiss Wanda. Wanda does not react as he expects.

Between this, Children's Crusade, and the What If: Avengers Disassembled, you really get the feeling that someone really wanted Wanda and Steve to hook up. And by that, I mean someone other than me. (I'm a big CA/SW shipper.)

I'm coming over from alternate universe(s) and shipping Wanda/Kurt!

The phrase OTP rarely works for me because there's so many different couples I like. There's Cap/Wanda, Jean/Wanda, Kurt/Wanda (did you see the 'what if Kurt was Billy's dad' picture? adorable!), Kurt/Jean...

did you see the 'what if Kurt was Billy's dad' picture? adorable!),

OMG! where? where?!

I am now envisioning one of Ben Grimm's poker games where the guys get hammered enough to discuss all the couples musical chairs stuff that goes on among hero teams and the general consensus is don't hook up with anyone soon after Hercules has unless you're really secure.

Then Northstar runs away :D

Ship 'em all! Let [deity of your choice] sort 'em out!

I'm mostly convinced that there aren't any bad ships, just people who can't sell them effectively. (And by "good" ships, I don't mean that every pairing has to end happily with declarations of eternal love. Only that they have to be interesting and not ended lazily with a fridging or something equally stupid.)

I like the way you think. :D
