bucky-is-a-hero-fightme:bolontiku:mcufam:Wanda when she lost Pietro:Her whole world shattered. She is in agony and disbelief what happened. She felt him die. She felt him draw his last breath. She is enraged. She is broken.Wanda when she lost Vision:She just had to kill love of her life so the rest of the universe can be safe. She had to kill the one person that felt like home after Pietro’s death, the one person that gave her comfort and will to live and fight. She had to watch him come back to life and die again. When her time comes, she welcomes death.This is what love does to youI think is more than what love does to you, because the bond Wanda has with Pietro is key to her characterization in AoU and even Civil War and so on, he obviously meant as much to Wanda as Vision does/did.I think is about her being forced to let go of the most important people in her life for the sake of the world, too many times already. She stayed behind and wasn’t fighting at Pietro’s side when he died, because she was making sure Tony’s plan was delivered and the Sokovian’s (and the rest of the world because Ultron’s plan blah blah blah and now like the OP said, she not only had to let go of the man she loves, but kill him herself. Once again, the world is put ahead of the people she loves, the world keeps on going without Pietro and will keep on going without Vis, but not for her. And this time, this time she lost. She went through the sacrifice, she accepted the fate of her love and yet it wasn’t enough. She lost Pietro once, who was her fucking twin and the one person she gave a flying fuck about in AoU, but I believe there should be a part of her soothed by the fact that her brother’s sacrifice wasn’t in vain, that they could, through his death, through her pain, work for salvation for the people of Sokovia, and that kept her from breaking completely.When it comes to Vision, though, she is building up from the devastation left behind not only by Pietro’s death, the destruction of her country in AoU, but her time in a fucking force jacket as a prisoner after Civil War; she is working to get a life for herself, as a fugitive, looking over her shoulder but falling in love, rediscovering life after so long in the dark. And then the obligation to let him go to comes along, and though she fights with claws and teeth she realizes at the end it is the only chance. And she goes through with it, another time letting the world take her people away from her. Only this time they don’t win. Only this time the sacrifice was in vain. Only this time she had to pull the trigger for the sake of the mission and the mission was failed anyways. I think there’s much more depth to Wanda’s reaction for Vis’ death, not only because it was a romantic love, because I will scream to the void that her bond with her brother was as deep as her and Vision’s. But this is just my opinion, and a long rant because I can’t get over Infinity war yet.Wanda’s a fantastic character, one who Whedon didn’t manage to completely fuck up though it sure looked like he was going to when he whitewashed her and yoinked most of her interesting history. Her extreme power but also extreme vulnerability, clear resilience makes her really interesting. -- source link
