Miranda finds she's quickly picking up the odd habit a lot of people have at Paradigm: going for a wander late at night.  Hands in her pockets, she enjoys the brisk autumn air that's now downright chilly, watching her breath come out in short puffs of steam after running a few laps.

The place is still too full of weird background noise for her to adjust, so why not?

She would see a familiar figure dancing in the moonlight. Fiona didn't seem to see her though.

Miranda slows as she gets closer, watching Fiona with some curiosity as well as appreciation. So far, all she's seen of the girl is a disconnected head. Seeing her dance is both pleasant and a distraction.

She doens't say anything yet, not wanting to interrupt.

The dance has a lot of twirling and leaping around. Though the way that her legs move and are able to split mid air hints that she has probably taken classes.

After a few more moments, Miranda habitually starts trying to mentally count out the beats to Fiona's dancing, moving around her in a circle with a wide berth so she can still move about freely without a chance of getting hit.

It stops abruptly. Not at all at a natural ending point. Fiona would bend backwards and look back toward Miranda wordlessly.

The abrupt motion startles her, reminding her of a marionette fighting against its strings.

"Hi, Fiona." She raises her hand and twists it at the wrist in a waving motion. "Sorry if I interrupted anything."

"Why would you think you interrupted anything?"

He head tilts further to the side as her back stays arched. Perhaps it was a coincidence to what Miranda was thinking, but the way her arms were hanging did seem to look more and more like she was on strings.

That's only a little creepy.

"You seemed to be in your own rhythm." She explains calmly. "Whatever music you were hearing, I didn't. So I thought you were focused on that."

"No."

She just keeps staring at her motionlessly.

She could accept being wrong.

"So what brings you out here?"

"Yours?" She tilts her head to the side. She doesn't act like she's suffering from bad dreams, but appearances can be deceiving.

"Sometimes."

She is still frozen in place.

She just raised and eyebrow at Miranda.

She remains silent for a moment before she thinks she understands.

"Ah." A small nod as she thinks of her mother. "Does it ever turn off?"

It was like the strings were cut and Fiona would fold in on herself crumpling to the ground.

A moment's pause as her expression saddens. She's fairly certain she knows what that means without needing an explanation.

"I see."

"Death, then." She decides to clarify, in case that's what Fiona is waiting for. "Or some way of losing your power?" What was it even? Skylar had only said she was odd.

She stayed on the ground but would look up at Miranda silently.

"What is you power?" she asks instead.
