[The Vine opens on a setting that is uncharacteristic of the Gardens. It appears to be a dimly lit laboratory. The walls are pale gray, with dark screens that flicker with green, displaying data that may or may not be meaningless. There is a low humming, from the lights or machinery. In the background, there is another sound--faint, but sharper

Oh, my. It sounds like you've found someone interesting.

[no_hometown]

[Sephiroth considers this, then nods.] She is very interesting.

I know little about her thus far, as she is not entirely coherent, but I hope her condition will soon improve.

[autumn_crocus]

If you know so little about her, it makes me wonder what connection she has to you.

[no_hometown]

An understandable thing to wonder, but as you may know, people here may come from different time periods, even if they share a world of origin.

She knows me, and our connection is undeniable.

[autumn_crocus]

In other words, you know little of them, but they know much of you.

[no_hometown]

That's a fair assessment. Although there are gaps and disparities in her knowledge of me. It could be possible that our worlds are similar, but not identical.

This place can be complicated.

[autumn_crocus]

Only if you overthink it.

[no_hometown]

I prefer not to leave things unexamined, and in this case, it is difficult not to wonder.

[autumn_crocus]

Naturally. It is, after all, a matter close to your own heart.

[no_hometown]

Yes, and I wish I could discover the truth of it, but it seems difficult to divine.

[autumn_crocus]

I wish you luck.

[no_hometown]

I thank you.

What is your name?

[autumn_crocus]

I'm called Yuka Kazami these days.

[no_hometown]

A pleasure. My name is Sephiroth.
