What is that secret?!

[babywantsuckash]

Luna didn't really forget her promises. So, when she said she'd be back to visit the Crazy Uncle the next day to find out about that secret he said he had, she did indeed show up. Besides, it let her test out crawling through the vents

They have, as a matter of fact, hosed his cell down. The feces on the back wall have been washed away again.

"Oh, you are a clever girl, aren't you? Amazing... simply amazing."

[babywantsuckash]

"I'm smart," Luna said simply. She had realized rather early in life that people didn't want little girls to be smart. And if people knew just how smart you were you couldn't get away with nearly as much.

People wanted little girls to be cute and whimsical so she learned how to act it. And she did it very well.

"I'm very smart; people don't give you as much if they know it though," she said simply. Again, he was crazy, like anyone would believe him if he told them. And at least someone had given him a bath. She sat down crossed legged in front of the cell, "So, can I hear some of the secret now?"

"Well... it's true that sometimes... if you act different than you are... you can accomplish more. Very clever of you for figuring that out!" He smiles at her... then his face drops suddenly, and he leans in as if whispering something of great importance.

"...tell me, Luna... do you know how the Inhumans came to be?"

"I know," she said. Luna may have hated her history class, but it didn't stop her from acing it. "The Kree came to Earth a long time ago and made us, and then they left but we're still here. And when you grow up, if you're genetics are okay for you, you go through Terrigenesis," she said.

"But I won't. Because I'm part human," she said with a shrug. "But everyone knows that, and it's hardly a secret."

Luna vanished back into the ventilation system and suppressing her giggles she started her way towards Cousin Gorgon's room.

She'd find out what he did when he locked his door with all those girls yet.

This was interesting, watching people like this when they didn't know you were. She happily half crawled, half sort of hunched waled to her Cousin's room. She'd like to see him keep her out this time!

It's hard to get a clear view, but there's definitely the sounds of other people in the room.

Giggling women. Alternating giggling and... squeals. And grunts.

At least four women. No, wait... five.

And there's cousin Gorgon's voice. "Don't push... don't push... there's plenty of room for all of you. And plenty of Gorgon to go around..."

"I'll say!" one girl giggles.

Luna tried to get a better look. Why did he have to have so many blankets? What were they doing, playing hide and seek under there?

What were they talking about? Even more puzzled she wished she could get a better view.

Cousin Gorgon was insane in his own special way.

[stomp_yer_feet]

There's more giggling, and there's Cousin Gorgon chuckling... and stopping as he takes a sudden sharp breath of air.

"Careful there..."

And more giggling.

Yet as hard as Luna tries, she just can't get a good look at what's going on in there.
