How convenient that she wasn't willing to provide more context and explain why her mother is holding her check hostage. I agree with @stupid frog and Luna probably owes the United Bank of Mom and more than likely, the Father Tuna Federal Credit Union, as well.
She won't tell us why her evil mother is refusing to give Luna the check and she won't tell us what this check even is, what it's for, or who it's from. I wonder why that is. It's a real head scratcher.
I have to assume it's for food stamps or something like that because I doubt it's a "take this and just leave me the fuck alone," check that her father cut for her. Last I heard, evil dad has been ignoring her texts and they're not on speaking terms. Who the hell mailed her a check, presumably as a gift for her birthday?
To be completely fair to Luna, it's a perfectly cromulent possibility that her mother is just every bit as much an entitled grifter, parasite, and thief as Luna herself. She might just have decided she should get half because she allowed Luna to have it mailed there, or believes she deserves it as compensation for regularly letting Luna bum Xanax off her when she gets her script, or whatever else. But then again, Luna accused her mother of "stealing" in the past because she expected Luna to pay her fair share of their rent and bills once Luna received her phat inheritance and could afford to. It could arguably be seen as a scumbag move for Luna's mother to suddenly start demanding she pay the bills once she knew she had the means, just so mom could hoard more of her SSI check to spend on junk food and drugs for herself - but at the same time, I don't really think a parent expecting their kid to start paying some sort of rent or board once they turn 18 can be called stealing. Anyway, my point is that I wouldn't necessarily assume that Luna is the unreasonable party in this scenario.
