[ The answer could easily be as simple as "both", if sins are assigned merely by the name placed on a research paper into a particular phenomenon. Vincent certainly isn't so embittered about scientists that he would go so far as to accuse the first scientists to write about 'gravity' or 'lava' of being responsible for falling into a volcano.
It would be the act of pushing a victim in that would give rise to the sin. And while Nero's words are hauntingly vague as whether it was just the research or Vincent's father's own hand, the timing is... off. He will not deny Nero's right to be bitter about anything connected to the tortures the Shinra Company is fully capable of inflicting on its human victims. But beyond it... ]
That isn't any of your business.
[ The Sable's guess is close on one point though. That he is the man's son, though far older than Nero suspects; Vincent was an adult when his father passed away. Rather than stop with the curt answer, the gunman lifts his left arm and points at the sled. ]
You've arrived here the same way I did. That creature they call a fox here. I was sent with this sled to bring you back to shelter. Your choice to come back or stay out here.
[ It is both more words than he's spoken since his arrival and a very firm suggestion that Vincent isn't interested in regaling his life story to Nero. Enough that whatever recognition he had for the member of the Tsviets is being superseded by the 'job' he was sent out here to do.
Sort of. Nero can always choose to stay here and rot, if he wants to. Not that Vincent has any control over what the mechanical dogs actually do and they are here to bring a new member of the Star Children back safely. ]
