[Steve leaves a message on the phone]

Steve: Tony, you there? Look, I know you're still mad, but I figure you're probably sitting there pretending you're not home but listening anyway.

[cut to Tony, who is doing just that]

Tony: Am not.

wanda is like the definition of “mental illness and trauma EXPLAINS their actions but does not EXCUSE them” !!!

no srsly don’t scream about how tony is the villain when wanda literally turned into a version of him and did all the same things. when she hits her redeeming point y’all will worship.

I am intersted to know why your feelings about Wanda are complicated.

And what do you think about Vision?

I guess because I feel like the MCU can't decide if it wants to make her a heroic villain or a villainous hero so it keeps trying to have it both ways. And that mainly manifests into a lack of consequences for her actions or even feeling like she should have consequences. Like in Civil War, she has that line "I can't control their fear. Only my own" and it's supposed to be empowering and "yeah girl, kick his ass!" But like, no. You're an ex-Hydra volunteer with vast power who has cost people their lives. Even if unintentional, take some responsibility over that, hon. It's like when police officers get offended that BIPOC are afraid of them. It's like, consider WHY fam. Consider the history behind that and realize that you do have a responsibility to do your job right so that people aren't terrified you're a force for evil. Also, I'm not going to get into full Accords discourse but at the end of the day, I think of them as superhero gun control and the fact that so many of the Avengers said 'fuck the wishes of 117 countries that are wary of a largely American militarized force and thus want oversight' still doesn't sit well with me in general. I also don't like that her Hydra past was swept under the rug as "she's just a traumatized kid who lost her parents." You still don't join a Nazi organization! And the fact that she mentally violated all of the Avengers (particularly Tony and Bruce) and then was just accepted into their ranks like it was nbd? It's a bit much for me. Particularly since she never got held accountable for her role in creating Ultron (like the narrative said "oh but she lost her brother!" and decided that was enough).

You get hints of this in WandaVision too. Monica mournfully telling Wanda "[the townspeople] will never know what you gave up for them" and Wanda saying it won't change how they see her. It's this moment of "oh it's a shame that Wanda will never be understood" but again, Wanda is responsible for how she got perceived negatively. The idea that it's sad that this whole town of people she victimized (more mental violation, keeping them away from their loved ones, etc.) don't empathize with her loss is just...squicky to me. This Vox article explains that better than I can though.

But all that said, I couldn't help but root for her a lot of the time while watching the show. I finally found myself invested in her and Vision (whose dynamic was, prior to WandaVision, developed mostly off-screen therefore making it hard for me to care). Even as she was doing something so wrong, I got attached to this messy human making an even bigger mess of her grief (I mean, I'm a Tony Stark stan. I love mess). And her powers are so cool. I love witches forever, okay? I'm also still hoping her and Vis get to say "hello" again! I just really hated the spin the show made that her doing the right thing at the end was some big heroic sacrifice instead of just...her not going full villain to keep what she wants.

Also as for Vis himself...I can take or leave him if he's not with Wanda. I'll always have some fondness for him because he's JARVIS' legacy. But also I really miss JARVIS. And for a character that's so powerful, I think the MCU kind of wastes him a lil bit.

i just saw a post that said mcu can’t be queerbaiting bc that would imply emotional connections between the characters and no one in the mcu are even friends so they’re not queerbaiting

…wELL THEYRE NOT WRONG
