Val is sitting at a table, scribbling furiously. She seems frustrated, but not as pissed off as she was last night. Every so often, she closes her eyes, puts on a pair of headphones and leans back, seemingly trying to memorize some music.

"That's still creepy," Virginia answered. "I'm wondering who the little man behind the curtain is."

Val chuckles. "Well, if I find a curtain, I'll make sure to tell you." She smiles gently.

"Then we can rip it out of the way and find out this place is run...by a tiny little man in a funny hat," Virginia said. "Or a baby. Or something else that makes no sense at all."

Val giggles. "Exactly! Or we find it's run by some old woman, who is laughing at us all behind our backs for thinking she's all big an dpowerful and important." Her eyes twinkle for a moment. "I like the way you think."

"Yeah, well, you can thank lifetime in New York for the way I think," Virginia informed her.

Val chuckles. "Well, I think I will thank New York, then. Probably better than Greensboro."

"Where's that at?" Virginia asked.

"North Carolina. Little town no one knows about." She shrugs. "My family ended up in a bit of a witness-protection-program type of thing, and we ended up there."

Virginia pulled a face. "Which one of you witnessed a crime?" she asked.

He tone is slightly flat. "My brother committed one." She shrugs. "And too many people knew. He was taken away to a military program, and we moved."

Her eyes widened. "What did he do?" she asked. She amended, "I mean, unless you don't want to talk about it..."

"Uh. Well, he was defending himself and killed someone in the process." She sighs. "Long story. It wasn't really his fault, but everyone knew about it."

"I don't understand why it was such a big deal then," Virginia said, her brow furrowing. "If it was self-defence, it was self-defence."

Val sighs. "It wasn't, really, but they wanted to make it a big thing, mainly because of the fact they knew my brother would become a prominent figure." She shrugs. "I don't really understand it. I just went with it all."

Virginia's eyes widened. "Where and when are you from again?" she asked.
