WHO: Wanda Maximoff & Hayley Marshall
WHERE: Their shared apartment
WHEN: Recently
WHAT: Post Yoga girl bonding.
WARNINGS: PG
STATUS: In Progress.

Living with someone she actually got along with was refreshing for Wanda. She'd thought, after sharing her dorm post-dragon attack, she'd have wanted to live alone again, but sharing with Hayley highlighted to her that, actually, it was somewhat comforting to share space.

Neither of them were too nosy and in each other's business, they each had rooms where they could go if they wanted to be alone and the rest of the space just felt easier if there was someone else there, even if they weren't talking. Wanda was rediscovering how nice it was to cook for more than just herself, and sharing chores with Hayley made them not so chore like. All in all, she felt like maybe the whole 'no spaces left' had worked out in her favour.

It also encouraged her to keep up with the yoga that Hayley first introduced her to when they were slotted together over the Valentine's week. "I never would've thought yoga was so hard," a lot of preconceptions were sliding away -she wasn't really a loner, working out wasn't all about running and meditation wasn't actually boring. "I feel like some of my muscles are burning, but in a good way."

"We have bell pepper, onions," Hayley just started to pull out whatever she could get her hands on, she trusted Wanda to put in it what felt right. "I feel bad," she confessed, "cause I was always there, morning to night, but I don't think I'm the best me when I wake up from a dream, I don't want to put that energy into my business."

She grab the eggs and the milk, putting them on the counter. "I always feel like I'm torn into two people, one is a me now, the other is a mother who was torn from her child because of the situation there. She's just so damn angry."

Collecting what Hayley laid out, Wanda got started on mixing things up together, cracking out the eggs and getting the seasoning. "And it is not great for you, sometimes putting all these things aside to go through the day." Least of all when Hayley's job was helping people centre themselves and relax. How could she get people to do that if she couldn't?

"Separation isn't a bad thing," and Wanda felt like they understood each other in this regard with their dreams. They each had anger in their other lives that was difficult to let go of and push aside in this one. "She has reason to be angry, it's not unfounded, but you do not need to let her anger change you." Even when parts of it bled into Hayley's life. "I think you're doing very well at managing things."

She nodded her head as she shifted to sit on the opposite counter with her water bottle as Wanda replied, she took a sip and chuckled, "I have help, you and god Elijah....when I woke up soaked in blood, the bed looked like I murdered someone, before you moved in. He showed up, handled it all...."

Shaking her head, "I was shivering in the bathtub from shock, he came in and took care of me. It was....horrible, but in my Dreams, I was just attacking every person in the coven that went after my daughter and I find myself no, wondering, what is she like? Do I ever get her back?"

Taking a moment, Wanda reached out to clasp her hand over the back of Hayley's hand, giving it a light squeeze. "I can't imagine what it must be like, waking to such a thing, but I am glad Elijah has been able to support you."

Outside of their group, Wanda hadn't had a lot of friends, and when they'd parted to assimilate into society better, getting a house, stopping their travels, Wanda hadn't found it easy to make friends in school, people too brainwashed into thinking she was a thief and witch because of her roots. Hayley was possibly one of three people Wanda thought of as close friends now.

"It sounds like you are a tenacious and protective mother, I am sure once the danger has passed," even if that was Hayley's dream self killing all the danger, "you will be reunited with her. I can't see you resting until then."

Haley smiled to her gesture, it was the same for her, her friends were really Wanda, Peter, Tyler, and of course, Freya, Although she was Elijah eldest sister, she helped Hayley a lot when she first came back home. Giving a soft sigh, she nodded her head in agreement, she most likely wouldn't rest till Hope was back with her dream self. "I never thought I wanted a kid, but...just something in Hope's little face..." she shook her head, "I'm not getting baby fever, trust me," she chuckled, "just....if it ever came up, it's a maybe, not a solid no anymore."

"Enough about me," Hayley smiled, "How are you?" she asked, "Anything i can do for you?"
