Make it make sense.
    I do read the Storm thread and there is plenty of hyperbole there as well, much of it understandable. Also I'm not blaming the X-offices, but they aren't heroes of Wanda's story either (other than today they haven't exactly been beaming with great Wanda rep). It's the same energy I gave the X-office for Storm. You'll get my adoration when there is more than just a moment and lip-service.

    Not only hate. She's hated him for years though. And for good reason. She should wave off that line. Screw that bs. This is just mewling. It's not any high moment.

    Please, like she would actually care. That's why I call the notion of Magnus touchy family being fanfic.
    I have mentioned before Wanda/Pietro's Schrodinger's love and hate for Magneto, it's unknown until written by a certain writer.
    It's a freaking dice roll.
    Being calm and unimpressed is good enough, she is too old to pull daddy's little girl without cringe.

    It's sad that the two speeds for this character is either out of the books or narrative slave for the x-side.

    Or she could fully transition to the x-side and be once again a protagonist over there, with a new lease on life

    Or she could be on the side where she has her own relationships and identity and is not represented as child-like.

    I want them to make things right with Wanda and the X-Side like making her a mutant and Magneto's daughter again, and either letting her fix M-Day or help out in another way like she tried in Empyre... But then move on with her life with her own stuff, like magic-related and/or going back to the Avengers, instead of being made an X-Men character.

    She’s a non entity as it stands, I hope that’s about to end, If the avengers won’t have her it is time for wanda to finally build a connection to her mutant heritage

    Is X-Men wading back into the complicated parentage of Scarlet Witch?

    OMG, the dramatics. Wanda doesn't exist. Her desires change at the whims of whoever is writing her just like every other character. Pretending every fan who likes/liked HoM is a stan of Magneto is going to get you nowhere. Magneto is not even in my top 10 favorite characters but I liked the story. The aftermath felt unfair to Wanda's character, I think she should have been given more grace considering she had a full on mental breakdown but we are where we are. Hopefully Ewing can clean it up, including the sloppy re-retcon of the parentage.

    I actually I'm going to agree with Username. For all those people who bitched and moaned that Morrison's Magneto was OOC, this was OOC. Most of her existence she hated or disliked Magneto. This was pandering to fans of the family. Not writing for the character. I expected better from Ewing.

    Marvel won't have her. But that doesn't mean that the only other thing for her should be narrative slave to that side. These aren't separate entities. Marvel as a company decides when and where to put her in comics. I decide if I like it. I prefer when she had her own hopes, dreams, family, friends and motivations. And wasn't just a mess up or child-like vessel for x-stories.

    It's almost as if there are people who have complicated relationships with their parents!

    I'm speaking of fans on Twitter that both I and MaximoffTrash have talked to. And yes, I know she's fictional. She's a fictional character whose entire continuity was changed for one event. I'm not gonna pretend that people that like HoM have an idea of what's best for this character if they think that was a power moment for her.

    There is no example out there to lead me to believe that this time of Wanda being shown as remorseful will end up different than the last.
