video . 9th transformation

[ private to anya, earlier ]

I heard that you were Magneto's daughter.

I guess I think you should know that I know.

[ public, later ]

[ The camera shows the teaching annexe, swings past a few doors and settles on a stretch of wall where - well, there's a door. And beyond is a place where something should probably be. Should definitely be, for anyone who knows the location of the ice rink. Instead, there's a block of blank concrete, behind the open door. ]

The rink is gone.

It took me awhile, to believe it. That people could care, that they could see me at all, that it wasn't just...a pleasant facade over the same callousness.

But it wasn't. I have friends now, and nobody hates me except for the people I've made hate me.

I'm happy.

It never...felt like a prison, to me. It felt like being free of the one I was used to.

People react to it in a lot of different ways, me better than most.
