[ Vincent had gotten some answers. More from messages and memories left behind than the woman herself. They hadn't been ones anyone was really satisfied with. Yet there had been closure. Perhaps a form of peace. Maybe one day Sephiroth would find it too. ]
No reason to think you're any different. I guess that's what I mean. The Planet isn't treating you any different than it would anyone else.
[ It's honestly not the best sort of normal. But at the same time, it is not because the Planet hates Sephiroth for what some other him did and is thus taking it out on him. As for the Fox? ]
Well, I won't argue with that. Things will be different for your time, because of her. If she's the one behind you going back and remembering, then she's trying to help. In her own way.
[ Vincent then closes his eyes. Everything is true means he has to accept Sephiroth's answer as genuine; even if the bond itself weren't expressing how much truth is present in the bitter words. The pain, too but...
He probably wouldn't mind punching Glenn right now. Not that he didn't comprehend how it happened to be perceived, but...
Anyway if he punched Glenn he'd have to punch himself, probably. Why are all the adults in Sephiroth's life hypocrites? ]
Friends...
[ He pauses. Then begins again. ]
True friends don't need to be there to be with you. Even if we want them to. Sometimes they die or need to go somewhere you'll never see them again. It's not as if I can promise I'll find a way to your time. I can't even promise that one day you'll leave Folkmore and not... return.
[ It's always a fear. Not that Sephiroth will come back as the madman Vincent remembers witnessing. But that the young man before him will be sent back and never return.
There would be no more way to guarantee the Fox would tell him what became of Sephiroth than there is somehow reaching out to communicate with that place. ]
When we part one day, or any time you go back to your world, I want you to remember. I'm always going to be thinking of you. Not what you become or as 'Sephiroth'. But the you I've come to know. Remember and... let it give you strength.
