Though it had seemed like a good idea at the time, Billy was beginning to think that agreeing to meet Wanda so soon after arriving and finding out that she was an alternate reality Wanda - and therefore not his mom, or someone he could rely on to help him make sense of this - was a bad idea. His palms felt a little sweaty and he thought back to the calming techniques Teddy's mom had taught him, that had been written down in the books he'd poured over when he was trying to get to grips with his abilities and not accidentally shock people with them.
Either way, Wanda was still Wanda, regardless of the reality. Right? It didn't count when they'd run through the multiverse to get away from Mother that they'd seen the worst versions of themselves in at least a dozen different planes of existence.
He rubbed the back of his neck and stood in the entrance hall, deciding to perch on the second to last step and wait, fingers laced together and forearms braced on his knees.
Wanda was still Wanda, and at the very least they could talk, get to know each other here. Having Captain America - Steve - and possibly Tony Stark too was one thing, but Wanda was different. She always had been. And since there was no sign of Teddy, Billy just wanted something familiar.
So he waited, knowing she'd show soon enough.
