I think it could be somewhat handwaved that in the heat of battle she wouldn't have the time, and the subject being aware was also not helpful. After all, when Mantis attacked Thanos in IW, they needed a bunch of people holding him down and distracting him before she appears out of nowhere.
Possible - though we don't know how Mantis's natural-born empathy compares to Wanda's Stone-induced vaguely described powers. But I was thinking, and I can't remember Wanda using the mental side of her powers at all since AOU, assuming that the Mind Stone stuff she did to Vision doesn't fall under that category. I wondered if it had been tossed aside along with her accent when that didn't play well in test audiences.
Or at least many of the people important to him.
Casting spoilers for Far From Home suggest that this group includes all of his named classmates from Homecoming. Which is a small enough number that statistically they all could've been snapped, but it feels convenient. Ah well, I guess the timing of filming demanded as much.
Not onscreen no, but Steve had to return the soul stone...
!!! An excellent point! I may have to write myself that scene, if I don't come across someone else's take soon.
Regarding Vision, I'll be very curious to see the story in that series because I can't see how he returns.
I am worried they might go down a path similar to Wanda's pregnancy in the comics, where she wants him alive bad enough that her powers will him into existence. But I suppose, if Loki's revival is due to the 2012 branch giving him a way out, the 2014 branch gives Vision a similar one.
I'm assuming it will cover the missing year in between Civil War and IW.
Oh, I'd like that! MCU romances, especially those that only exist in team-up movies, tend to go from 0 to 60 as a consequence of all the time that passes between films, so having some time to explore their relationship properly would be nice. Until recently I would've been skeptical about the likelihood of this - MCU properties having aired in approximate chronological order - but one of the other Disney+ shows is going to be a series of Canon AUs, so viewing order doesn't seem like a priority.
