She almost says it, gets as far as the little huff of a laugh that comes before she calls herself ordinary, but he's right. She always knew music was her path to freedom, she just didn't know how right she was. Or that her life had already been written for her until she landed here.
(So many dark, quiet night, she wonders how much of any of her life was an accident. Did Dad leave the violin out for her to find? Did he always know the apocalypse was going to happen, did he know it would always be Vanya? If so, how can he purport to have been trying to stop the world when he had such a large hand in it?)
Is that what they're doing here? Has he brought her here to gauge her level of belonging after she stammered and quietly freaked out about the concept of evil (like a very niche dumbass)?
Twelve is a hell of an age to start learning to exercise demons, but if a calling's a calling, Vanya was about that age when she decided her purpose was to play music. And she was right. So, he may have been, too. Which brings her to a question:
"Do you think it's what you were meant to do?" Vanya asks, no hesitation in this earnest query from deep within her, even as she scream-whispers it over the music.
