So I've been on an Ellen Paige Movie Binge and I just want to raise you this: Vanya is the actress in the family. She never wrote the book and she's moved on from Hargreeves' bullshit.

She has a fanbase now, does interviews with Ellen, the Jimmys, Conan, etc. She's happy, sure she wished she could have a better relationship with her siblings, wished that Allison could have been the one to be the star like she had wanted at 13, but Vanya was the one that somehow made her way to stardom.

Her siblings had each other (to be honest she didn't know, she left at 17 and never looked back except to send invitations as her plus one to red carpets or events to the house). Vanya had fame and even a small group of friends that she met through work. Vanya was no longer ordinary.

Vanya wished she could have gotten her siblings out from under Hargreeves' thumb. She wished she had gotten over her bitterness earlier, realised that despite the negligence the whole family had towards her, her siblings weren't completely at fault for that.

She had called the house years ago, on their 24th birthday. She didn't know if any of them would still be there. Grace had answered and had seemed so excited to hear Vanya's voice. Apparently Luther and Allison had stayed and smuggled Vanya's movies into the mansion to watch with Grace and Pogo. Vanya was a bit embarrassed to admit that she had teared up. She had wanted to talk to her two siblings but Grace said that they had gone out to meet up with Diego to celebrate. Their father apparently had given up sending them to missions so now they led their life but Luther and Allison didn't want to leave Grace and Pogo alone.

Vanya had left her address and her number with Grace, then she went out and bought some gifts for her siblings and sent them to the mansion. She never really got responses back as long as she knew they were okay she was fine.

She hired a private investigator to find Klaus and then hired people to make sure he wasn't harmed. She knew she couldn't make him stop doing drugs, or come home or even go live with her. He had to make that choice on his own, but she'd rather go back to being Ordinary Vanya than have her brother on the streets without some sort of protection.

She missed Ben and Five. The two brothers that were the nicest to her. She always takes a moment to remember them everyday. That wherever they are they don't feel pain or any negative feeling they experienced while in the Umbrella Academy. Well, she at least hoped that Ben had the patience to deal with Klaus and his horrible coping mechanisms.

And so Vanya kept up with her career, she started feeling lighter and lighter, she was seeing a therapists and working through her emotions. She had stopped taking the pills Hargreeves had prescribed for her and the first time she had noticed a hint of her powers had been pretty ugly. After the initial shock, however, she shrugged it off and tried to learn to control them slowly. She didn't care about powers anymore.

When Hargreeves died and she walked across the front door was like a release of tension. This was her final goodbye to the son of a bitch that made her and her sibling's childhood hell, tried to break her down and mold her into an empty shell of a person, ridden with insecurities. What she didn't expect however, was the animosity Diego had towards her.

"Ah there she is! Our little Shining Star! You don't belong here, Vanya. Not after you left." Vanya had hidden the hurt, and rolled her eyes. She strutted up to Allison with a soft smile that her sister returned. They hugged and Vanya heard Diego scoff and head upstairs. Allison reassured her that she was welcome and that Diego just didn't know how to act around her.

Her and Allison Spoke for a bit, catching up and Allison asking her so many questions about being famous, how it was to live life outside of the mansion walls. Vanya had hinted that maybe she could pull a few strings and get Allison a small part and see for herself. Allison shook her head, "No, me and Luther were thinking about turning this place into a foster home and help kids who dealt with abuse from their guardians."

Vanya loved the sound of that. She hoped it went well, she'd be more than willing to help out whenever she can. Eventually Luther showed up to say hello to Vanya and gave her a heartfelt hug. Vanya was surprised, it wasn't as if Luther had ever been more than distantly polite to her when he wasn't bringing her down as children.

"Vanya, I'm sorry for being an asshole to you growing up, I should have been a better brother." Luther smiled at her, albeit sad. Vanya shook her head and hugged him again.

Then she heard a very dramatic gasp, "Look at her! She's famous now and she still dresses like a chic hobo." Vanya turned and grinned at her brother. "Hey! I'll have you know that this outfit drives the ladies crazy."

Klaus pulled her into a hug. "Thanks for looking out for me, sis. Ben says that your little care-takers you hired for me make his life easier, which is silly of him because, well, you know." He pouted at her. Vanya rolled her eyes and decided to take the plunge. "Come back with me, Klaus. Where your sense of fashion won't be so underappreciated."

He clicked at her and patted her head. "I can't do that to you, you have such a lovely reputation." She didn't feel hurt, he wasn't ready yet. They all convened into the livingroom when all of a sudden a blue light flashed outside.

Vanya couldn't believe her eyes. The brother that had gone missing for 17 years was back, looking the same as she had last seen him. She heard Klaus ask if anyone else was seeing this and then Five curse. Yup, that summed it up.

Five was just as confused as them. At first he didn't believe them when they said they were his siblings just 17 years older, but seeing as how everything else was basically the same he acquiesced. To Five, he had just left the table to try jumping through time and then he was here, 17 years in the future.

He obviously had questions. He complimented Vanya on her confidence and career when he found out. He was more than a bit unimpressed to see that the siblings had more or less disbanded the academy, complimented Klaus' skirt and he mourned Ben's death.

Vanya felt a headache come on when she realised she would have to call her manager to cancel her reservations to events and roles. She might be here longer than expected.
