[Wanda has a bit more information on this situation than most people. She already knew about the barge, thanks to Anya buying her life back with a warden deal, and living with a handful of other veterans in the X Mansion. On top of that, Anya keeps a letter by her desk - a quick run-down of what's going on, who's who, a limited power dossier, a map. Warnings and tips.
It's been almost a year since Wanda came back from the dead and moved to a new universe and a new family, since she learned to use her powers and sneak out and have friends. Anya has been a specter in the background all that time - Erik and Alex and Charles all obviously love her, and it hurts because Wanda remembers loving her too, and she can't think about hugging Anya without her breath going tight in her chest, without remembering what it felt like to be torn slowly apart.
She slinks around the room, brighter and homier than either of the castles she's lived in, almost breaks down messily when she finds the knitting basket, trails her fingers over the spines of books she hasn't read yet. Who is her sister now? Does she even want to know?]

I got a question for the regulars. How many of you are here to bring someone back from the dead? And why?
[Maintenance filter]
[If you've ever helped out and want to still be on it, that's cool.]
I got Anya's keys, if anybody breaks something that has to be dealt with right away.

[Wanda makes a thorough search of the barge, not in awe so much as cataloguing, looking at all the places she's heard tangentially about, the place that changed her life so radically, but that she's never seen. She's not trying not to be noticed, but she doesn't especially stand out, either - she acts like she belongs out of reflex, doesn't stare, doesn't sneak, doesn't make a fuss. Gets her food in the cafeteria and doesn't avoid eye contact or seek it out.]

I am. Because she's...[Too important to let go of, too good even though she doesn't know it, that's what he wants to say. But she might see this, and he doesn't want to make her unhappy or uncomfortable.] She's important to me.

...well, for what it's worth. It works.
no subject
That's...that's worth a lot. Sorry, I'm Scott. I don't, um - who're you here for?

Then he thinks he sees her in the dining hall, except when he pulls up next to her, it's not.
He freezes, heart pounding, mouth dry. And he stares like a deer about to bolt. It's too late, now, for her to not have seen him.]

Wanda?

[She's not sure, exactly, what he's recognizing her from - just the resemblance? Seeing Anya's memories or something? And no idea why he looks so stricken.]

Wanda?

[She doesn't draw back in fear, but there's something coiled about her, contained and wary where the Wanda he knows would lash out, what, maybe snap what do you want? She means something very similar by it, though, watches him with dark, cagey eyes. She doesn't know him, or what he knows about her; too many people here know her.]

Wanda? [She smiles, a little hesitantly.] Do you remember me?
no subject
[She doesn't know how she feels about Morgana at all. It could be nice to think of Morgana as the one who saved her, instead of Anya, let everything be simpler. Or she could think of Morgana as the one Anya saved, instead of Wanda, be furious and jealous and bitter - and in the end, she's just a girl Wanda doesn't know, whom she remembers looking almost as shaken up as she felt.]
Morgana, right?

Wanda.
Anya's Wanda, it must be.
She could take some time to regain real composure, to soothe the desperate maelstrom of emotions, but no, she won't.
Her voice is level but aching, when she responds.]
I'm here for five billion people, because I killed them.

[It's not, she can tell, the same Wanda that was here when Iris first came to the barge, but Iris is well aware that Anya's is a reality with a lot of near-duplicates.]
It's not why I came, but it's a thing I 'ope to make 'appen. If things go my way.
[Vic. Birdy. Circumstances have made it less straightforward than when Iris and Birdy spoke to each other; but the intention Iris formed that day hasn't worn thin.]
I'm usually pretty good at making 'em do that. I 'ope you enjoy your time 'ere, sweetheart.
