[In her room, Luna has stacked up all her furniture in the middle of the room in order to reach the ceiling. She lies on her back on a desk that's tilted precariously on a chair, a globe, three books, and a coat rack. Somehow it all manages to stay upright.

Paint drips into her hair as she paints her ceiling. Faces of people on the Barge are recognizable - people she's met and interacted with, Iris, Bush, Steve, Facilier, MewTwo, and others.

She's not a bad artist, really. It's a lot more fun than the art room, where they expect you not to paint on the walls]

That's close enough, I guess.

[She just shrugs, looking at the ceiling rather than at Luna herself.]

I'd hate you for saying that if you were anyone else.

Yeah. [ She smiles fondly at a memory. ]

But she was more fond of me. Father would forget the rest of the world, sometimes, when he got into a project.

Yes.

[Even though she lives - lived - for it, those moments of power and tenderness...it was different with Oscar Vale. And that part of it was awful.]

He remembered me. The one who survived remembered something I only said to the one who died.

I don't. I still don't know what that means.

That's good, though. It's important to have a good relationship with your family.

That's true - or you could start a mural in one of the common rooms, you think people would go for that?

[She hangs up. She needs to think about that, or not think about it. Drink and work two kitchen shifts in a row and she wants to fight something but also she doesn't. Curls up for a while, after dinner, quiet and silent with Iris's dogs.]

i should have reported it when i realized the anomaly

but they would have made me kill him too

that him i mean

and he was so broken and alone and i didn't want to

so i told them he was harmless

[Most people, in Mira's experience, aren't important at all. Certainly Oscar Vale went on to do nothing of historical significance. But something holds her back from pronouncing this.]

Why do you think so?

It feels like that when they die, too.

[When she kills them.]

You shouldn't change what you are for other people anyway.
