@ shooting range

[Even though she's only been here a few days shy of two months, Wanda has started making a bit of an effort to train herself further -- especially since she's without that year of additional training with the Avengers, thanks to being behind in the timeline in comparison to the rest of them.

There had been a time last month when she was with Clint here, and telekinetic archery was definitely A Thing that happened. It's something she's tried on her own a time or two since, and she's here to do it again today. So, whole Jo is getting started on her own work, Wanda is setting up her stuff at another. Which is just a handful of arrows.

She flings (carefully flings) one of them at a target nearby; instead of a bow, visible red wisps are twisting around her hands and the arrow. It doesn't hit the center of the target, but at least it's better than her first couple of tries. That's the idea, though -- practice (eventually) makes perfect. A few more attempts, more or less the same result. She takes a pause for a moment, and in her break, she starts to watch Jo's attempts with a bow. She knows it's harder than it looks, and most of her experience with watching an archer - what little experience she has in this - has been the short time she's been around Clint.

So, when Jo is at a good break point, she speaks (she waits so as to not startle or disrupt her too much), finally: ]


Very impressive. [A simple, but genuine, compliment. Also said with a small smile. See, where Jo might not have given all that much thought to archery in a while, she's still miles ahead of Wanda. So many miles ahead they're probably in different galaxies. Archery (done with a bow, and not sorta cheating like Wanda was doing) still looks impressive to her, okay?]
