#mcu speculation

Because, okay, order of operations:

Wanda enslaves a bunch of people to play dolls with Vision's ghost because she's a shitty person with a lot of trauma.

Agatha Harkness, canon dirtbag, plots to murder the shit out of Wanda and steal her powers, but fails.

Wanda puts Agatha under an ugly, vindictive spell but doesn't kill her (my theory remains that Wanda can't help it, she likes Agatha, because usually people who piss Wanda off end up SUPER FUCKING DEAD) and leaves her in Westview, which is also a dick move.

Agatha gets an assist from Death and Billy and wakes up powerless.

Agatha then saves Wanda's children and dies on their behalf, figuring out a neat way to cheat Death AGAIN. <- THIS IS WHERE WE ARE IN CANON. I know that somehow, the entire male Marvel fanbase seems unable to remember that Agatha's a ghost, not dead-dead, but that's where we are.

So we have a serial-killer dirtbag who saved Wanda's kids, and a mind-controlling dirtbag who didn't kill Agatha who is supposedly dead.

Yes, this is how I feel about any pretense that Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch, is actually dead. Anyway, the state of play is that Wanda Maximoff went cuckoo fucking bananas because her children died, despite it appearing to any rational observer her children were not real. Meanwhile, Wanda's supposed enemy Agatha has somehow managed to get her hands on one of them and protected him from actual, literal Death, her actual, literal ex-wife and parent of her beloved dead child and helped said child resurrect the other one and decided to spend her afterlife helping procure the other not-dead twin that Wanda tore apart reality to try and recover and Marvel bros and THIS FANDOM assume:

Agatha clearly hates Wanda and they are the worst of enemies, which is why she totally drained Billy Maximoff and bounced to go do evil. Oh, wait, she didn't. (Could the relationship here be complicated?)

This will have no bearing on the plot later, because an all-powerful reality bender who broke bad is clearly not going to care that the woman she took absolute care to keep alive is still around and taking care of her kids and maybe Vision, too? (Yeah, I too love to flush money down the drain and pretend Kathryn Hahn's Agatha isn't popular as fuck, said Marvel, despite it being nearly 2 years since we last saw her.)

All Agatha actually wants is to reunite with Rio/Death, who she fought against to save Billy and Tommy AND high-key kind of spitefully rejected by becoming a ghost, something Rio says she hates. (Again, this seems like Rio and Agatha are complicated)

IDK. Like, perhaps this does all end up with Agatha spitefully being like "lol, stole your family to get revenge on you mind-raping me!" and maybe it ends with Joe Locke's Billy having to talk to Agatha, who never appears on screen again. Me, I think y'all may have to resolve your feelings and be like, "wait, it's more like comics where sometimes Agatha and Wanda are besties and sometimes they have fundamental issues relating to their opinions of good, evil, and magic? Likewise, it might get complicated like that with Rio, too?"
