What's my silly little ventrata doing?

Hi everyone, happy Thanksgiving! Perhaps it's too soon to tell but does anyone know what these two new growths near the base of my ventrata are? In my (admittedly limited) Nepenthes experience thus far, any new growth has been at the top of the plant. Is it now starting to put new leaves out near the base, or could these be flower stalks? Seems an odd time for it to be doing much of anything with the shorter, colder days - this is a windowsill plant with no artificial light, and I keep my place in the 60s day and night. Thanks in advance for any insight!

It's activating dormant nodes along the stem. These will turn into new growth points. All neps will start to activate some of their dormant nodes as they get larger.
