is it weird that i sighed with relief that it was dofp pietro that you were talking about? but then i remembered what aou wanda is gonna be like and i was like. a different kind of sigh. maximoffffffssssssssssss
i just want everyone to know i got a ton of shit from people telling me i was 'overreacting' when i said she was going to be River Tam 2.0, that 'Joss would handle her respectfully!! he did this thing on Buffy one time so u cant criticize him ever!!'
i just want those ppl to know suck my dick i was 100% on the money
while i'm here let's go over everything wrong about wanda's first appearance
she is in a weird fucking wendy darling-esque nightgown that makes her look like a child. she looks like a fucking baby in that nightgown. she looks waifish and delicate, like a baby doll, which is something i should never have to say about wanda maximoff.
wanda looking waifish and delicate is fucking ridiculous because it not only is so opposite to her character, it is infantilizing. everything about the way she's introduced--kneeling and vaguely gesturing while Pietro is raw aggression, slamming himself against walls and snarling, muscles clenched--is making her out to be a cutesy little baby doll. she looks like a baby and a waifish little fucking 'mentally ill' sad sack. she's literally playing with wooden fucking blocks. does someone on the creative team have a fetish? fuck you. goddamn.
she just. she's literally. literally. LITERALLY. river tam. super secret government experiments turn a delicate waifish baby-lady into a SUPERPOWERFUL but still waify delicate baby-lady
which will probably then totally upset the dynamic of pietro relying more on wanda for guidance, support, and strength, and if that happens, i'm going to hurl
