Okay. So this is late but the site was being a jerk.

Dear Wanda,
Hey. So today is your birthday. Today is the day that I woke up and thought to to myself 'what is today?'. Okay, so I'm joking. I obviously knew when your birthday was. What kind of brother would I be if I didn't?! I guess my point is that this letter is for you, someone who is very dear and near to my heart, and I'm trying to make it as memorable as possible. Let's take a trip down memory road shall we?

When we first met you weren't the happiest camper in the park. I mean granted we were running at each other, full speed into a war. I saw you as a threat and nothing more at that point in time. You were in the other side and it was either me or you. Yep, great first impression but hey, I'm trying to be honest here.

The next thing I know, Stark is telling me about you and your brother, how he made some really stupid mistakes and lost your trust. I was curious. I honestly think I would have given anything to be able to meet you in that instance.

My wish came true a few months later. Of course you weren't exactly happy at all yet again. You were upset and I felt like it was my job to take you in, to make up for everyrhing you had lost and keep you safe from losing anything else. I don't know how but I guess I got you to calm down and we started talking. I felt this since of security around you and it continued to draw me in.

I think my favorite part of that day that I really truly met you was when you took me to your house, cute little cozy thing and cooked Sokovian food for me. I remember reading spell books, books about magic...honestly whatever looked readable on your shelf. I'm pretty sure I might have driven you crazy with questions about your language and culture.

From then on out I made it my job to take care of you to the best of my ability. There were times when I failed that absolutely killed me but there were also times that I succeeded and I absolutely loved myself for it.

There are moments I've wanted to kick your ass. There are moments I've looked at you and just wanted to cry. There are moments I absolutely love you and moments I absolutely hate you. It's a complicated relationship but then again what good one isn't? The important thing is that you've stayed with me through it all.

You may not see it but the person I see when I look at you is strong, she's independent and she's brave. She doesn't let other people get to her and when she does it's for a good reason. You're a brilliant woman, Wanda. You're beautiful inside and out. You never have to doubt what you're worth because you're absolutely pricless and no that's not just from a brother's point of view, alright? It's the truth and nothing but the truth. Sure you have your flaws but who doesn't? I mean you've met me. I'm more flaw than I am good but because of people like you it's all worth it.

You're a hero, Wanda. You're not a monster or a freak, not a villain or the bad guy. You're a saviour. Never let anyone tell you any differently.

I love you, sis. Happy 24th. May you're day be as special as you.
