VA (Vita)

As discussed on stream: VA (Vita) does not appear directly in the archive but is summoned as a phantom in the record—a named absence whose alleged actions ("going behind the scenes") serve as proof of duplicity in interpersonal conflict. She functions as a cipher: a person whose actual presence is unnecessary to the argument, only her rumored behavior.

As discussed on stream: Vita appears once, invoked during the escalating hostility between Christine and Crystal as evidence of hidden maneuvering. She is not a speaker but a specter—cited to demonstrate that one party has engaged in covert organizing or coalition-building outside the visible frame of the discussion. Her mere mention signals a shift in the accusatory register: the conflict is not just about what was said in public, but about what was allegedly orchestrated in private. The reference to Vita and her behind-the-scenes activity anchors a broader pattern observable in the panel: the assumption that true motivations lie hidden, that surface arguments mask deeper conspiracies of alliance and betrayal.
