As I Do by EssayOfThoughts

Summary
Wanda, he knows, more than most, understands that logical reasons do not mean a logical outcome. That is, after all, why she lost her brother. Why she fought for Sergeant Barnes. Why she is, now, locked in the Raft, in a straitjacket, in a collar.
And, Vision knows, why they locked her in a straitjacket is logical: allowed to move she could level the prison and drown everyone but those she chose to lift to the skies. But, Vision knows, doing this they have not helped her, have not helped themselves. They have harmed her, harmed any likelihood of her fighting at their side ever again, and he … he thinks he hates it, that these two threads of logic should exist side by side and yet be incompatible in the minds of some.

Summary
They have scattered bundles of days together. Never more than a week, sometimes as little as two hours. Sometimes they just chat, other times they spend whole days around each other. Affection is easy - for Wanda affection has always been easy with those she trusts, it is just that for almost twenty years the only person she truly trusted was her brother. But she trusts Vision, knows she is safe around him, so he gets affection too, and he seems to return it in equal measure, no more or less than what she offers him.

Prompt: Pre-Escape by EssayOfThoughts for pupsarecuter

Summary
Two days. Two days since the experiments, of which only they survived. Two days since the experiments which gave them powers.
Two days kept apart.
“We have to,” List says when Wanda asks. “With his speed, with your destructive capabilities… What would happen to the two of you, if you hurt each other?”
Wanda does not know how to express to him that if they saw each other they wouldn’t. They can’t. All their lives they have been twins, siblings, kith and kin. Two halves of one whole.

Summary
A series of Oneshots about the MCU Maximoffs varying from canon to canon-twisty to outright AU. All focus on the Maximoff twins, and on their relationship, interactions, complexities etc.
As this is a collection of oneshots this doesn't contain any of my multi-chapter fics: The Cradle of Life, Like Home, And when the stars threw down their spears, the whole Memento Mori series, a blank slate or For Fear and For Vengeance. I do have multiple ideas for fics for the Maximoff twins, so this will probably be updated intermittently forever. Keep an eye out!

Summary
Prompt: "Wanda is born, Pietro is not. Wanda lives a life haunted by her twin brother who never lived, whispered secrets warning her just in time to avoid slipping, avoid bullies, escape the rubble. The whispering voice leads her to the castle and out of the power of the sceptre her never-born twin is created - a half at last made whole. Superpowers optional."

One of the earliest HP fics I ever read, I think? Over on FF.net. Incidentally why I have a Bad Habit for Dramione even though I do actually have issues with the ship. Damnit. RZZMG writes it so well!

A worthwhile read if you're sick of seeing everything being pro-tony/your faves being wantonly bashed with total disregard for canon.
