[It's by far one of the strangest gifts they've ever received from Steve. At the very edge of the compound lies a new treehouse. She can hardly believe Stark signed off on ruining his perfectly designed building for this much less that Steve would come up with it. His explanation makes a terrible amount of sense. They need a place where they can just be together with no expectations. They can draw, play her guitar, or Viz can teach them to play chess. They can just lay around with some books. No pressures or staff milling about. Just them. She can't find any fault in it after that. Viz is downright delighted his notes have yielded progress so quickly. Really everyone wins until she sees who is in charge of making Steve's idea a reality; the new friend he takes off to see and have group with which never sits right with her.

She's not nearly as trusting as Steve. Outsiders are historically trouble when your world is usually made of only two people. Even expanded to a small group doesn't change that philosophy for Wanda. Pietro would call her jealous if he were alive to see her. The thought makes her bristle. It was letting someone in that got him killed, after all. She won't make the same mistake twice.

She watches him with a lack of subtlety that will undoubtedly disappoint Natasha later as Viz, the one who watches her, comments. She can't help agreeing with him even as she continues to watch this strange man with Viz until whatever remains of JARVIS picks up on the fact he's likely thirsty by now. It's Wanda that goes to with a giant sports drink to greet him now that Steve has been called in on some business likely either Avenger or Peggy Carter related. Viz, even after adopting a more human look for this visit, is still too self-conscious to greet someone new. She goes alone with only his gaze heavy on her back as she greets Frank.]


Viz thinks you should thirsty by now. Here. [What a warm greeting from undoubtedly the friendliest of the pair.]
