[ she smiles and shakes her head as she comes to stand beside him. ]
I'm not always home, no. I might be able to create anything a supermarket has, but sometimes I like to walk around with the basket and look at the shelves.
[ it's a gentle teasing. wanda's always been at home whenever he's come by, and she knows that this is a very big change from the usual.
[ wanda's a little surprised by that, even though she shouldn't be. it's not because she's dead his mind (she hasn't), but that, well… isn't that why amos kind of comes over? ]
Things are fine. I went shopping. [ she furrows her brows as she teases, ] Very riveting story, I know.
wanda smiles as she steps inside of her house. she doesn't turn to see if he's following; she knows he is. ]
It does, actually.
[ she laughs lightly as though she hadn't expected that. she thought perhaps the plant knew one song and one song only and would stop singing eventually, like the music in a birthday card running out of battery. ]
It's really smart. I'm a little surprised by how easily it picks things up.
[ she leads him down the hallway to her kitchen. ]
[ she waves her hand dismissively. what she's taught is sokovian songs, mostly the ones that her mother had sung to her when she had been little. she likes that it sings it almost perfectly.
the plant is outside. she leads him out onto her back porch and gestures with a wave of her hand toward where it sits on the top staircase happily. the moment it sees her, it begins to sing in slavic. ]
[ wanda cocks her brow, planting her hand on her hip as she feels it best showcases her stubborn refusal to believe otherwise. amos isn't a bad kisser, but he can't know that… even though her carrying on about it says everything.
[ but wanda averts her gaze, looking straight ahead as she tilts her chin up slightly in an act of defiance. she doesn't think about the kiss. she doesn't want another kiss. she just likes informing him that he is a very bad kisser. ]
But I know that you are desperate to kiss me again.
[ she looks at him from the corner of her eye and slowly widen her smile slightly. ]
[ vision would say she's a great kisser, but she's the only person vision has and most likely will ever kiss. but saying so will only encourage amos to ask questions, and wanda's too good in a mood to go down that road. ]
I get told by many, many people how good of a kisser I am. You're free to add to it.

( thankfully, he doesn't startle or jump or anything else embarrassing but he does sound surprised to see her.
he looks at her and then at the door and then at her again. )
You weren't home.

new year, new wanda? ]
no subject
( but he doesn't really know what he meant either. he just makes a face and shakes his head. )
I was just coming by to see how things were.

[ she smiles at him. ]
Your plant is inside.
no subject
( he makes a face at her. )
It's your plant. I gave it to you.
no subject
[ she rolls her eyes as she shakes her head. with a lazy flick of her wrist, her door unlocks and opens. ]
Did you want to come see it?
no subject
( not that he really needs to check on the plant, he's sure it's fine and all. )
Is it singing to you?
no subject

[ she leads him down the hallway to her kitchen. ]
no subject
( except not as annoying. but, amos has found that he likes it and it reminds him of the person that gave them to him so it's nice.
he's glad she's liking it. )
What are you having it sing?
no subject
[ she waves her hand dismissively. what she's taught is sokovian songs, mostly the ones that her mother had sung to her when she had been little. she likes that it sings it almost perfectly.

no subject
( it's not a bad song or anything, he just doesn't recognize it. )
Sounds good. You've been working overtime with it.
no subject
[ she imagines he'll know what that is considering what he does know about earth. she has a feeling 'sokovia' isn't a country he knows. ]
It's my first language. [ she touches her nape. ] I didn't expect it to be able to pick up any other languages.
[ she smiles. the plant doesn't stop singing to itself, seemingly happy with its song and company. ]
Now you know you have multilingual plants.
no subject
( including himself. )
Is that a good song?
no subject
It was one of my mother's favourites.
[ wanda looks at the plant fondly. it continues to quietly sing as though it knows not to belt out any of the notes right now. ]
The plant makes it sound happier than it is. [ she looks at amos and smiles. ] Thank you for it. It makes the house feel a little less lonely.
no subject
( and he's glad he was able to give someone else something that made them happy. the plants had been one of the bright spots for him for awhile. )
You can't teach it to say bad things about me.
no subject
[ she droops her shoulders and pouts, sighing dramatically in disappointment. wanda keeps her gaze on the plant despite her feigned disappointment. ]
But I wanted it to tell you how bad of a kisser you are. How else will you listen?
no subject
( he says that sarcastically, rolling his eyes. )
And a liar. I know I'm not a bad kisser.
no subject
[ wanda cocks her brow, planting her hand on her hip as she feels it best showcases her stubborn refusal to believe otherwise. amos isn't a bad kisser, but he can't know that… even though her carrying on about it says everything.
she sucks at people. ]
no subject
( he plays coy. )
Wouldn't you like to know.
no subject
[ she scrunches her nose and smiles at him. she'll insist on this until her grave, and then it'll be on her tombstone.
HERE LIKES WANDA DJANGO MAXIMOFF
10 FEBRUARY 1989-TODAY
AMOS BURTON WAS A MEH KISSER ]
no subject
( he doesn't believe her but he doesn't think he's going to be able to get the honest truth out of her. )
Then, you don't have to kiss me again, do you?
no subject
Nope.
[ but wanda averts her gaze, looking straight ahead as she tilts her chin up slightly in an act of defiance. she doesn't think about the kiss. she doesn't want another kiss. she just likes informing him that he is a very bad kisser. ]
But I know that you are desperate to kiss me again.
[ she looks at him from the corner of her eye and slowly widen her smile slightly. ]
I am one of the best kissers.
no subject
( that's she's one of the best kissers? he's not arguing against it but he's curious as to what made her say that. )
Someone you've been kissing that's been telling you that?
no subject
[ vision would say she's a great kisser, but she's the only person vision has and most likely will ever kiss. but saying so will only encourage amos to ask questions, and wanda's too good in a mood to go down that road. ]
I get told by many, many people how good of a kisser I am. You're free to add to it.
no subject
( what kind of hobbies did you have there, wanda? he laughs. )
Got a really active social life, huh?
