So you might have noticed there's a big ol' robot parked out back of the bunker at the Cooper farm. It's large and green and looks very battered.
Approach it, and one of two things happens.
Either you came during the day, and Val Bell is sitting on its head with a good book and a bowl of apples, or you came during the evening or night and it is apparently deserted. 'Apparently' being the key word.
What'll it be?

It's easier to demonstrate than explain. She shrugs her shoulders, and the movement somehow translates into a pair of bright shapeless wings rolling out of her back. They keep unfolding, passing through her clothes without apparent difficulty, until they're big enough to conceivably carry Val into the air.
Then they dissolve into pale white mist and vanish completely.
"Like that," says Val, eternally casual.

Sonia crosses herself again, and spends a few moments staring, as her brain tries to assimilate this.
The fact that the glowy wings are as "ping neutral" as the rest of it is not helping.

She has the grace to look embarrassed about it, at least.
"I know it looks-- yeah, sorry."

"You din't... mean for it t'be that way, right? I mean, you din't pick the stuff?"
This makes a difference.

"Guess... well, I guess God had a reason t'make you that way, then."
Ralph gets extra cuddles before he gets fussy from Mommy's Srsface.

Val doesn't do serious well.
She does religious even less well.
But-- she feels bad about not taking those connotations seriously.
