[scarletcast]

For those of you who have [ pause, a low hum, ] superpowers. Has this place ever taken them from you?

​​[ A beat. ]

If you wish to speak in person, I will be in the park. In the red jacket.

​​[ She has ways of being completely private, but that's a little invasive and not something to advertise. Anyone heading to the park to speak to her or in the vicinity will see a young woman on a bench, with a thermos full of tea next to her, steam rising off the cup clasped in her hands. ]

Comments

[ Someone will find out how to make another, even if the Mind Gem is now with Vision. ]

And you? You are human?

[whichend]

Sometimes.

[ Wanda showed Arya her power. It would be rude to deny Wanda the same information. Arya isn't good with trust, but she knows the importance of an even exchange. ]

[scarletcast]

[ The importance of an account settled. It tells her something about Arya. ]

Is it a secret?

[whichend]

It is. Hidden from certain men. I don't know if you're one of them.

[ If Wanda asks to hear the secret, Arya will tell her. ]

[scarletcast]

[ A nod. ]

Then it is better I not know, so I will tell no one.

[ She has no burning need for Arya's secrets. ]

[whichend]

[ Arya flashes Wanda a toothy grin. ]

No one already knows.

[ It's Arya's own personal joke. She tips her head politely. ]

It was good to meet you.

[ Arya says 'good' like someone would say 'useful.' ]

[scarletcast]

[ It doesn't bother her. The world is complicated, and people always were. Arya is young. People do not hide without reason. ]

And you.
