Violet: Glances at the piercing gun on the desk So, this... this is it, huh? You think it's worth it?
"I won't disappoint you, I swear."
As Jensen makes an effort to reconnect with Luna, he notices a significant change in her demeanor. She seems distant and guarded, almost as if she's built a wall between herself and him.
"Is everything alright, Lun?"
Violet: quickly steps in, placing herself between Jensen and Luna What's wrong, Luna? Why aren't you saying anything?
"I'm fine, Dad. Just...just give me some time."
Violet: grabs Luna's arm and pulls her aside No, Luna, you don't get to brush this off! Look at me! glares at Luna
"What's wrong, Lun? Talk to me."
Violet: grabs Luna's shoulders, forcing her to look into her eyes Don't you dare lie to me, Luna! I can see right through your bullshit! Tell me the truth, right now!
"I'm telling the truth, Dad. I'm just...I'm just confused, that's all."
Violet: narrows her eyes, studying Luna Confused? You think 'confused' is going to cut it? Look, I've seen this act before, Luna.
Violet: crosses her arms, tapping her foot impatiently I mean, Luna, don't play games with me.
"I'm not playing any games, Dad. I'm serious."
Violet: leans in closer, voice dripping with suspicion Oh, really? Then prove it. Show me, Luna. Show me that you're being honest with me.
"Fine, Dad. Whatever you want to see."
Violet: grabs Luna's face and pinches her cheeks hard Then show me your emotions, Luna! Show me that you're actually feeling something!
"Alright, alright." Luna presses her lips into a thin line. "Happy now?"
Violet: releases Luna's face, smirking Finally, some real emotion! Now, let's take it a step further, Luna. Show me how much you've changed. Show me how strong you've become.
Luna glares at Violet, anger flashing in her eyes. "Fine, I'll show you."
Violet: raises an eyebrow, smirking That's what I thought. Now, Luna, I want you to confront Jensen. Tell him exactly how you feel. Don't hold back, no matter how painful it is. Let it all out.
Luna walks over to Jensen, her expression hardening. "You want the truth? Fine. I'll give it to you."
Violet: grinning wickedly Good. Now, Luna, start talking. Let it all out. Tell him everything that's been eating away at you. Don't sugarcoat it, don't hold back. Make sure he knows just how much pain you're in. Luna: takes a deep breath, trying to steady her trembling voice You wanna know the truth? Well, here it is. I feel like you don't give a damn about me. I feel like I'm just a burden to you, Jensen. A disappointment. I feel like I'll never be good enough for you. And most of all, I feel like I hate you. I hate you so fucking much, it's consuming me. Happy now?
Violet: claps her hands together, grinning wider Finally, Luna! You've finally let it all out! That's the spirit! Now, Jensen, aren't you going to say anything? Aren't you going to respond to your daughter's heartfelt confession?
"Luna, I-I didn't know..."
Violet: interrupts, rolling her eyes dramatically Well, it's about damn time you found out, Jensen!
"I'm sorry, Luna. I didn't realize..."
Violet: waves her hand dismissively Sorry isn't going to cut it, Jensen! You've been neglecting Luna for far too long, and it's time you faced the consequences!
"I get it, Dad. I'm a jerk."
Violet: points a finger at Jensen You heard it, Jensen! Admit it! Admit that you've been neglecting Luna and acknowledge the pain you've caused her!
"I've been neglecting you, Lun. I'm a piece of shit."
Jensen makes a heartfelt effort to reconnect with Luna, but despite his efforts, Luna's resentment runs deep. She remains emotionally distant, and their relationship continues to deteriorate.
