Work Text:
Six months past…
Who is the early bird/ Who is the night owl?
A little bit of both here since space doesn’t really have morning/nighttime the way it is on Earth. But Deisi would be the night owl here, considering how much work she puts in with little sleep (until Wanda makes her—often wondering how Deisi truly survived on her own.) Deisi is often the very same person who sleeps in late too, always waking up to a fresh cup of coffee by a fully dressed and wide awake Wanda. Deisi’s terrible sleep schedule is still a work in progress…
Who would make the coffee and/or tea?
Wanda definitely. Before Wanda boarded The Liberator, Deisi really didn’t bother with the stuff—she has a personal storage of mead in the cargo bay which she keeps fully stocked, and a few gallons of water. Wanda wasn’t having it. After some prodding and a bit of playful debate, Deisi caves and takes Wanda to Xander to buy kitchen amenities. Now there’s the smell of freshly brewed coffee and cookies constantly wafting through The Liberator . Deisi won’t admit it—but she’s a fan of cappuccinos. She has at least four or five a day. Wanda monitors this closely.
Who works/ Who stays on the ship?
Seeing as she’s the Pirate Queen, Deisi is working almost all the time. The life of crime never stops, and Wanda thankfully understands this. However, she’s usually in the same room with Deisi but occupied with her own studies from the vast amount of spell books and diaries Deisi has in her collection. When it’s time to get off the ship, they usually both go. Deisi doesn’t like to leave Wanda behind and Wanda just refuses to be left behind anyway, and she loves showing off her new outfit (MoM)—plus, if anything pops off (and it usually does) she uses this time as practice for new spells and incantations. And Deisi loves watching Wanda work. She’ll step back and watch Wanda’s back instead.
Who loves to call the other cute names?
Oh Wanda, for sure. She hardly ever calls Deisi by her name unless she’s pissed about something but it’s usually detka (baby), darling, sweetheart, princess (Deisi is still technically one—this one is her least favorite though Wanda's favorite). Outside the ship, Wanda reels it in, preferring to call Deisi ‘War’ instead. Sometimes ‘darling’ would slip.
Who is the most affectionate?
Surprisingly, it’s Deisi. This woman is lowkey touch starved. She always has to be touching Wanda in some way. If they're on the ship, Deisi will seek out Wanda’s hand or curl around her if Wanda isn’t working with witchcraft. Out in public on a date? These two are not shy with the PDA. If it’s for pirate work, they’re all business, just affectionate enough to scare the enemy.
Most common argument between them on the ship?
Not really an argument. Perhaps just petty. But laundry, specifically how to fold a towel. Wanda really can’t stand the way that Deisi folds the bathroom towels. Her way is quicker and takes up less space. Wanda can’t figure out why it irks her so much, but it does. And Deisi randomly unfolds a towel just to retold it for her own personal amusement now.
Oh and who gets dibs over the remote. This is an every night occurrence, and this is when Deisi uses her height difference to keep the device out of Wanda’s reach as she tries to negotiate her point of watching action movies. Wanda may or may not tackle her and they get into a lighthearted scrimmage on the ground that can turn into a tickling fight until one of them gives up. This has led to some interesting results.
Who kills the scary space bugs?
Deisi. She knows more about them than Wanda does, and how to properly handle them especially if they’re super toxic or something. If that’s the case, she’ll send one of her berserkers ahead to deal with since they’re already, well, dead. Otherwise, she’d cut the giant beast down herself—any opportunity to flex for Wanda, of course. Unless it’s a roach, space roaches are not to be trifled with.
Favorite thing(s) to do…(outside the bedroom 😉)
Be total tourists. Deisi has been to a lot of planets in her time but Wanda hasn’t and she wants to, and who is Deisi to say no. Wanda’s excitement at everything is refreshing and every now and then, Deisi learns something new that’s changed from her last visit.
Also pranking Hela. A big risk but worth every gut wrenching laugh. Ever since Wanda nailed mirror magic, Deisi’s roped her into her sibling prank war. For three months, they’ve been moving and or hiding little trinkets and essential outfit accessories from the Asgardian Queen. Hela doesn’t know which one of her idiot siblings it is but she’s vowed a great deal of grief for the culprit once caught. Wanda and Deisi upgraded to throwing little things at her through tiny reflections.
And the sex!…oh how they’ve gotten creative with…hold on…what? Oh…. oh! Outside the bedroom, right, forgot. Carry on. ☺️
Who’s better in the kitchen?
Wanda. Hands down. Again, Wanda really wonders how the hell Deisi survived on this ship. The woman had a kitchen but nothing in it. Not even a spoon. Wanda quickly fixed that. Whenever Wanda is cooking, Deisi likes to sit at the table with her own work but quickly finds herself distracted watching a cookbook following Wanda around the kitchen while she experiments with a dish. It usually turned out pretty great. Except for last time—that’s why Deisi isn’t allowed to help anymore. Honestly, Deisi might’ve picked up a little weight from all of Wanda’s good cooking.
What do they do when separated?
A rarity but it’s happened. Whenever Deisi is off the ship, Wanda just wanders around the large pirate space ship. Even after 6 months she was still finding random corridors and hiding spots. The berserkers didn’t bother her much since she was given free reign, very simple creatures they were but helpful and a small comfort. When Deisi finally returns, Wanda is usually found in her own private workspace, practicing witchcraft. Deisi lingers every now and then.
Is there a height difference? (Smol & tol)
Yeah, slightly. Wanda is about 5’6” but Deisi has about 4 or 5 inches on her (c’mon she’s an Asgardian) unless Wanda is wearing her heels. Then it’s fair game.
Who usually has nightmares?
Both of them do because both of them have PTSD. The Four Rings prevent Wanda’s magic from lashing out whenever she’s having one and from projecting them to Deisi. Deisi’s nightmares can be violent but they’ve never hurt each other—those nights are rough all around and it’s a miracle if they could go back to sleep. If they can’t they don’t, instead they play a board game or find some snacks and watch tv.
Which one is the overthinker?
Deisi. This has been a long standing habit. She has to always be five steps ahead of herself and ten steps ahead of her enemy. It stresses Wanda the fuck out when it gets out of hand because Deisi gets obsessed with the littlest things that have simple solutions.
When one of them has a bad day, what does the other do to cheer them up?
Wanda’s frustrations when she can’t get a spell right is often. One mispronounced word, an over exaggerated hand gesture—she’s a perfectionist. Before Wanda ends up blowing a whole through the ship, Deisi prepares the tub (Wanda calls it a mini pool), putting in Wanda’s favorite oils and bubbles. Deisi pampers Wanda until her hands stop trembling, until the green of her eyes come overpower the scarlet.
Who hogs the covers?
Space is cold, very cold and even with the heat on in the ship, it can be chilly. Deisi doesn’t mind it, she’s used to it so she doesn’t mind Wanda hogging the soft fur blankets as long as she gets her cuddles. Well, that is until Wanda starts flailing limbs, Deisi usually ends up on the other side of their bed. If Deisi gets really cold, a sleepy tug of war will start.
