[He poses an interesting question, one that Wanda considers seriously. She can't imagine a pirate not being a pirate simply because they aren't aboard a ship currently. A carpenter is still one without tools and wood...but these labels are applied due to action. Tasks a person performs. At what point does intent come into the mix? She and Steve and the others had acted against the law, but to stop the machinations of a mad, grieving man. Their intent, however noble, was tainted by the fact that they worked against the rightful law.

But then, Wanda has a history of protesting the rightful order of things, for the good of others. For her people whose country had been reduced to rubble all to often by war.

She hasn't stolen from others for her own gain, but she's certainly acted according to her own beliefs, her own moral compass however skewed it might be on occasion. It's possible she's more of a pirate by the circumstances he outlined earlier than she might have thought, she certainly doesn't exude heroism the way Steve Rogers does, but she wouldn't say it's the term that defines her best.

After a moment she nods, acknowledging his point, followed quickly by a shrug meant to say without words that she knows no better one way or the other where she falls.]


Perhaps I'll come into my own brand of piracy here, then. Maybe even assemble a crew of my own.

[Because naturally she's not about to become a pirate just to follow someone else as captain.]

Once I find something worth going after, of course.
