[Wanda learned years ago how to hide her true feelings behind a calm, almost bored expression. She knew how to control her body language to seem relaxed when she wasn't, and how to rely on subtle nuances of tone to get her point across. So it's not difficult to hide the anxiousness and tension she feels in her Water sector suite. She's separated from her brother, really separated, for the first time in her life, and also from the team she's come to trust and rely on. In some ways, she even considered them her friends.
Lips pursed, she flips on the console in her suite and leans back in her chair, by all appearances entirely unruffled by her current circumstances. Dressed in her Ultimates uniform, she crosses one leg over the other and periodically takes sips from the glass of water in her hand.
Those familiar with her alternate universe counterpart might notice a striking resemblance to the Scarlet Witch they know. Though she's at least ten years younger, her hair darker and straighter, and her uniform entirely different, her face and bearing are remarkably similar.]
As it seems highly unlikely that our hosts have provided full and completely honest details about our situation here, I'd appreciate any insight you all may have, or information they may have neglected to to give me during their orientation.
[After a brief pause she continues, though the words are completely foreign to Wanda.]
It also appears to be required that I find work as well. Unless anyone's spoken to a man by the name of Fury recently, recommendations as to where I might begin looking would also be welcome.
[She ends the transmission without offering her name or listing any of her affiliations save that of Nick Fury. Those who know her will contact her, she's certain, and perhaps those familiar with Fury will as well. Anyone else she has no intention of enlightening any more than is absolutely necessary. Not until she gets a better impression of the climate of the city and the other foreigners living in it.]

[She's curious what he's been taught, and how considering magic from her world isn't something just picked up or taught to anyone. As to who Sabriel is, well, she'll ask about that later as well.]
action;
He draws two deliberate marks in the air with his finger, concentrating, and they shine for a a split second before a burst of flame appears on the tip of the finger he used to draw it. It doesn't seem to be burning him, and it's small, like a candle-flame, but it's there. ]
See? I ain't had no powers before, huh? Now I do!

So you do, and ones that could be useful at that. Have you found reasons to use what you've learned yet?

[ He nods. ] I wanna, though. I wanna fight for things I believe in again.

[Her background is such that she can't be too surprised by the idea of a child fighting, but he does seem somewhat on the younger side, still.]

[Sizing the boy up, she does her best to place his time period, but with so much turmoil during what she suspects is his point in time, she could be wrong...]
Would you be speaking of King Charles the Tenth then?
