I thought i send my post on the previous night but i probably passed out... I wanted to say i'm even more curious about Wanda's powers, was her powers always magical and she never had any idea (and i know that what what she displayed on the show so far arent only her powers) OR a magical intervention (Agatha in that case) made her a conduit for magical feats? Also i saw an interesting theory from an online review, this Pietro could actually be the real MVerse Pietro tho i doubt Agatha is powerful enough to pull someone from another Earth?
In the comics, Harkness actually taught Wanda how to use her powers, so she's not a conduit as much as shaping who Scarlett Witch is. I wonder if she will become a mentor to help Wanda control her powers...
Harkness (again in the comics) is supposed to have Strange level powers....
But when will we get to see Agatha's brother, Captain Jack? |

What if the Tardis appeared in front (or inside of) of 177a Bleecker Street?
I'd watch it. Benidict! Freeman! Go talk to the BBC and make this happen, lol...

Yeah i read it on a online review after i watched the last episode, i think it also said Harkness is as old as mankind so i'm not really surprised.
Thing is, they never tied her to anything magical before so is their way to make her truly the scarlet witch? (btw i thought she already had her name yet but the show reminded me of the negative!  ) |

btw i thought she already had her name yet but the show reminded me of the negative! The closest they got to it was Stark calling her a witch (to Hulk/Banner). "That little witch is messing with your mind" and she wore a lot of red/scarlet, including a jacket that belonged to Scarlett Johansson's character. |

(btw i thought she already had her name yet but the show reminded me of the negative! ) Yeah, she was never called Scarlet Witch. She just had certain superpowers. But considering she's going to be in Strange 2, they're probably defining her character and the powers she has. I'm sure we'll learn more in Ep9...
Now, even though Wanda (and Pietro) is a mutant in the comics, she couldn't be in the MCU before Disney bought Fox. So she just got her powers from the stone. Well, she can be a mutant now.
So, more conjecture. This starts getting into territory I don't know... Mutants get their power from the X-Gene, much the same as Inhumans have their power embedded into their DNA.
Carol Danvers got her powers from the Tesseract, but the explosion didn't kill her, she got superpowers. Same goes for Pietro, who I assume touched the mind stone. Others (according to ep 8) die, as suggested would happen to mortals in Guardians before Starlord grabs the power stone. Are they all mutants?
Does exposure to (or contact with) the stones activate the X-Gene? Is this how mutants are going to be introduced into the MCU? They're going to explode into the MCU much the same way Inhumans did in AoS?
(Yes, I'm doing backups and have time to waste... ) |

I don't think it changed the established character, even Wanda.
They're defining her character like you said but i think she just goes from metahuman to witch, i don't think they're going for some 720 move where she's actually a mutant.
I have a very strong feeling this Pietro is the one from the comics tho i'm unsure that Agatha is strong enough to pull someone from another Earth...so many questions left unanswered
