.one. [voice to video]
[The call begins with a woman giving a running commentary without context. When she speaks, her words are tinged with an accent that most could only identify as vaguely Eastern European but a few might recognize as Romani by way of Transia.]
Ah! What the—?! Oh, ick.... I guess that means it’s ... on? Sooo, how do you change to video from— Oh!
[The video function activates and displays the obviously surprised face of a young woman in a red hooded cloak. Her shocked expression quickly turns to one of triumph.]
Hold on. [She holds up a hand, gesturing for the viewer to have patience.] Give me a moment.
[The video displays blurry flashes of a wall, a bedspread, something red, a ceiling, and a wall again. Finally it settles once more on the woman, who has evidently decided to push back the hood of her cloak, revealing dark brown hair and a red tiara. Now that the video feed is stationary, it clearly shows her sitting cross-legged at the head of a bed in what appears to be a starter apartment.]
Hello! [She smiles sweetly and gives the camera a little wave of her fingers.] I’m new here, but you’ve probably already figured that out. [She makes a self-deprecating face.]
I’ve read through the welcome packages. So, I think I have a pretty good grasp of what’s going on. And, to be honest, this sort of thing [she gestures vaguely] has pretty much been my life recently. [The woman shrugs and offers a cryptic smile but provides no further explanation.]
Anyway, no need to go into all of that. But I could still use your help! [She perks up as the subject changes.] Unfortunately, I’m currently stuck wearing my Avengers costume, which is not appropriate for everyday wear. [The woman glances down at herself in mock dismay.] And, it’s definitely not warm enough for the weather at the moment! [As if to highlight her point, she uses one hand to draw the two sides of her cloak together and hunches slightly inward.]
Can anyone tell me the best place to get some clothes, hopefully from a charity or on credit of some kind? I don’t have any money at the moment. [She looks very apologetic.] But I’d pay for them as soon as I could! I truly appreciate any help, and I promise to repay the favor.
[The smiling woman gives a small nod in confirmation before moving out of frame. The video shows the ceiling for a few seconds before her face suddenly reappears.]
Oh, right, where are my manners? You don’t even know my name! It’s Wanda Maximoff. Thank you!
[And she’s gone … again. However, her voice can be heard off screen.]
Okay. You can hang up now, Tallus.
[The call ends.]

Sooo, alternative dimensions... neat right?
[Smooth transition there]
Re: [Video]
I'm sorry. I know you didn't mean to upset me. [Not DP's fault her brother is deeeead. So she's racking her brain for a way to change the subject.]
...Wait. That's IT! [snaps fingers] You're Deathpool, the mercenary with the motormouth. [A-ha! Of course. They'd never met, but she'd heard things, bad things. Although this version seems pleasantish.]

[Money, being able to kill things on a daily basis without reprucssions, and having a home is doing him wonders]
Re: [Video]
Well, for the record, I'm "The Witch." From experience, just about everyone seems to expect a "scarlet" in there. [Yeah, not her first inter-dimensional rodeo.]
So, let's try again. It's nice to meet you, Deadpool. [Super friendly smile. Pietro is rolling over in his grave.]
[Video]
Yeah, Headpool and Dogpool are the weirdest versions of myself. Though still pretty kick ass, because hey, its-a-me!
Re: [Video]
I ... wow. I've only met one of my alternates, and she was mostly the same. [Except for being The Bitch. And slutty. But that's not important.] How do you know about so many different versions of yourself? [Truly baffled.]
[Video]
[And then he went and made a bunch of money and started a civil war]
Re: [Video]
I believe you. [Said matter-of-factly. He didn't ask for her approval but whatever.]
I was pulled here from being on a team of inter-dimensional exiles who were fighting to keep the multiverse from collapsing in on itself. What you just said makes perfect sense after that. [Yeesh.]
[She pauses for a moment.] Annnnnnd I think now I should let you go. [Her expression becomes conflicted.] I suppose I'll see you around since we'll be roommates of a sort. [From the Avengers to the Exiles, and now living with Loki,
DeathDeadpool, and the White Queen in Jubilee's apartment building. What has happened to her life?! Sob.][Video]
[Ever so casually]
It pretty much like an episode of Everyone Loves Lucy, at some point you are going to hear HEY LUCY I'M HOOME! So you may as well just be prepared for that.
[He blinks]
Try not to sound too excited about it, Glinda.
