We present numerical hydrodynamical models of the effects of planets or browndwarfs orbiting within the extended atmosphere and wind formation zone of Miravariables. We find time-dependent wake dynamics and episodic accretionphenomena which may give rise to observable optical events and affect SiO maseremission.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, follow-up to JAAVSO pape
