I'm trying to cast a wincon, but my opponent responds with Counterspell, which I then respond to with Rewind. It's Two-Headed Giant, so their partner responds with Negate... but it's targeting the wincon, not Rewind.
When Rewind resolves and my lands untap, do I have priority to use them to Negate his Negate?
Basically, is priority passing still a thing once a stack starts resolving?
In general, a spell doesn't resolve until all players pass in a row while that spell is on top of the stack (C.R. 117.4). This also applies to spells that target other spells, such as Counterspell, Rewind, and Negate. If a player has priority, they can use it to cast instant spells such as Negate (C.R. 117.1a).
Note also that the stack itself doesn't resolve, but rather individual spells and abilities in it do, with priority windows in between.

If the player responded to Rewind with Negate, then Rewind is on the Stack when that Negate resolves.
The opponent could let the Rewind resolve and then cast Negate, but why would they do that, and how is that what they meant. I wasnt there but if they didn't have you untap your lands there's no way they've communicated that they let you resolve the Rewind.
