Play the roll you chose
“Alright witches.. I’m here, the party has arrived” Agatha saunters into the room a sly and confident grin tugging at the corners of her mouth. Agatha dusts her hands over her deep red pantsuit, she claps her palms together before looking to Wanda. Agatha’s eyes trail up and down, noticing how her hair falls over her shoulders and onto her own tan pantsuit, she tries not to let her gaze linger. Agatha winks at the scarlet witch, hoping to throw her off before plastering the largest smile onto her face she can muster “Hiya hun, you ready to do this thing?”
“Ready as I’ll ever be” Wanda shrugs “Let’s get to it then, I’ve hired a second co host to this little podcast you created here um.. Call Me Mother?” She scoffs shooting Agatha a questioning glance, Agatha rolls her eyes.
“Yeah I well I don’t see how that’s entirely necessary. We can handle this thing on our own, no? Besides, you know me.. I prefer working alone and well, you’re already here aren’t you?” She says, a small laugh bubbling up. “So, who is she to anyw-“ and then an all to familiar voice cuts her off.. Rio
“Hey there sweetheart. I brought donuts.” She raises an eyebrow, smirking.. eyes boring into Agatha. She laughs and sits in a chair next to the one Agatha was about to sit in, but now she uncomfortably shifts over one. Rio grins at her setting the box down on the table next to the third mic.
Wanda turns around facing the two ladies already sitting down. Her eyes narrow at Agatha noticing the witch had taken her spot. Walking calmly over to them she looks at Agatha “ I am NOT “ she points accusingly between them “ sitting between whatever this is “
“ well “ Agatha scoffs
“ Agatha…” Wanda demands
Agatha rolls her eyes before sighing and sitting up “ I thought this was a co-hosted show but it’s apparently called ‘ call me Wanda ‘ now” Agatha remarks, taking her new seat.
“ oh come on Agatha sitting next to me isn’t that bad “ Rio smiles up at her. For a moment Agatha had forgotten why she moved seats in the first place, her anger now leaving the red head and shifting towards the woman in the green pantsuit.
“Of course it’s you.” The blue eyed witch’s face flushes with anger. She once again looks over at Wanda “Her? You hired her? Why? What gives you the right to take over MY podcast Wanda” Agatha shouts, flicking her hands and attempting to use her purple.. and.. it doesn’t work? She wiggles her fingers for a moment, the sensation of something that was supposed to happen lingering.
She shakes her head and rolls her shoulders. “Well I guess we should get right to it then” She throws a look to Wanda, avoiding Rio’s gaze.
The scarlet haired witch smiled, seemingly innocent “I just thought it would be nice to have someone on from your past, maybe someone to keep you in line?” The smile fades into a smirk.
Rio looks between the women shifting slightly in her seat, eyes narrowing “And when Wanda called me I just had to meet her, the only person who’s ever stood a chance fighting you.. I thought it would be-“
“Right, let’s stick to reality here” Agatha huffs. “I don’t need a babysitter, or have you not noticed I’m a big girl” she shamelessly bites her lip and winks at Wanda.
Rio looks between the women shifting slightly in her seat, eyes narrowing “And when Wanda called me I just had to meet her, the only person who’s ever stood a chance fighting you.. I thought it would be-“
Agatha interrupts her “I hate you” the abrupt tone in her voice not making it come off as harsh as she had hoped.
“Yeah well that’s not what you said last night.” Rio smirks, Agatha scoffs, her voice slightly catching in her throat. “Whatever.” Agatha says a bit taken aback. Wanda watches, wondering what exactly happened between these two witches.
“So, we should get started then, no?” Wanda says, pressing a button on her mic and the other two women do the same. “Welcome to the first episode of Call Me Mother, I’m Wanda Maximoff”
“Agatha” Agatha waves a hand, Wanda looks at her expectantly “Harkness” she says, annoyed.
“I’m Rio. Vidal” the third woman says, waving at Wanda with a confident grin
“So I thought for our first podcast we could do some introductions, really delve into our pasts and how they make us who we are as people. How they’ve made us strong” Wanda looks Agatha up and down, Agatha adjusts uncomfortably.
“And I’m just here to watch Agatha squirm” Rio smirks, attempting to take Agatha’s hand but she pulls it away. The green witch smirks and bites in her direction, hissing playfully. Wanda raises her eyebrow at them.
“Right well, let’s get to it then.” Agatha flips her hair behind her shoulder. “Me first, obviously. I am the better witch between the three of us.” She smirks.
“So.. theatrical as always, Agatha” Rio eyes her hungrily then pulls out her knife and starts playing with it.
Agatha rolls her eyes “I’m from Salem, yeah.. that Salem. That was us. My…” Agatha’s face fell. “My mother’s coven. But those harpies are all dust now.. who cares about them right?” Agatha laughs, hiding pain. “Still.. hard to forget though” she clears her throat. “Anyone else want to take a turn?”
Rios gaze stays locked on Agatha for a moment “It’s.. it’s okay Agatha” Rio coos “I’ll go.” She leans into the mic “the green witch, OG, whatever you want to call it.” she says bluntly. “That’s.. pretty much my story though. Life and death in near perfect balance.” She looks to Agatha hesitantly.
“I figured I could interview the two of you, everybody knows about me. I was an avenger” Wanda says looking between the two witches.
“ I wAs aN aVEngEr” Agatha mocks “whatever, what do you want to know?”
“How did you two meet?” Wanda asked curtly, a hint of jealously rolling off her tongue.
Rio laughs and Agatha cuts her off “No.”
Rio rolls her eyes “We met after Agatha accidentally killed all her coven members and her mother. Then a few times after that after she had siphoned a few other witches. I was just doing my job and-“
“And I’ve always liked the bad boys.” Agatha waves a hand “it wasn’t that serious.”
The green witch raises an eyebrow “Oh? So all that longing.. the waiting, every time you killed someone just to see me.. that wasn’t that serious? The cabin we shared? N-“ Rio stops herself at the thought of their son. She’d wanted to get a raise out of Agatha but she didn’t want to hurt her. She never wanted that. Physically maybe, that part was fun but.. emotionally? No.
Agatha scoffs, tongue in cheek “Yeah. You know what? I’m so out of here.” She hits the table as she gets up and leaves the room.
“Te veo” Rio whispers
“See you tomorrow Agatha.” Wanda says a bit deviously.
But Agatha knew one thing for sure she was not coming back
