I am Sephiroth.
[Though which Sephiroth is it? The ID number attached to the post reads S1297993 rather than S1727002, for those who know there are two Sephiroths, are familiar with those numbers, and take the time to notice. Then again, the tone of the post may also be a hint.]
I have been researching the monsters in the Tower. I am curious as to why they are treated so differently than we are, although they likely come from other worlds as well. They have no collars, and they roam freely. They are not wire constructs containing souls, as we are. They were not altered during the glamour failure. They appeared as normal. Many of them are absent during the day. Where do they go? What is their nature? Why are they here?
If you have any ideas or theories, I would be interested in hearing them.
Also, I have noticed that there is a discrepancy in my memories. If there is anyone capable of reading or altering memories, please contact me.
Thank you.

There was also a time discrepancy, before I came here. I believed myself to be in suspended animation for more than twenty years, during which time I did not age, but now I believe I may have been incorrect, and these memories may come from that time.
I remember being an adult.

[He remembers being like the Sephiroth she knows, then. She stops to consider that. Though she can't think of what would cause him to become a child if he's already gone through adulthood...]
Are they memories, or... [She frowns. Reverting back to childhood is nothing she's ever seen happen on her world, but there are other things. Some of which she's experienced herself.] Maybe you're seeing things from your future? Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between visions and things that have already happened, if they're really vivid.

The experience is exactly like a memory, only it is fractured and I cannot understand it.
It is unlikely that what I saw was the future. The memories contained things that have since been destroyed.
no subject
[Well, she wasn't sure what to say then. If it wasn't the future, then it wasn't future. But it couldn't be the past, because if that was possible, the memories wouldn't be so disorienting to him. She purses her lips and considers that. She feels like she's missing some crucial bit of information, but she can't think of what it might be.]
If visions aren't possible on your world, what sorts of things are? [Maybe a better understanding of the world he came from would make this easier.]
no subject
Magic is possible, but it is utilized through a substance known as Materia, which allows man to manipulate the natural world.
My world is also scientifically advanced. We are capable of holographic simulations and advanced genetic engineering.
no subject
[She knows the definitions of "genetic" and "engineering" from reading books in the library and talking to people in the tower, but she's never heard the two words used together before. Her expression is equal parts curious and thoughtful.]
What can you do with that?
no subject
You can augment talents or abilities or create traits and abilities where none existed.
this is so late I'm so sorry OTL
[She doesn't fully understand it, but to be able to create something from nothing like that - at least, that's how she thinks of it - sounds truly miraculous. Then something occurs to her.]
You don't think they did something like that to you, did they? Maybe what you're experiencing now is a side effect of them changing your genetics somehow.
[...well, it sounds like a good idea to her, anyway.]
Not a problem at all!
That is not a correct interpretation of genetics. Altering someone's genes will not give them additional memories.
[If someone's genes are altered through exposure to radiation, the radiation could cause memory loss, but something like that wouldn't give him strange, vivid memories of being older when he clearly isn't older. Then again, he doesn't actually know what was done to his genes...]
This is the first time I have experienced this phenomenon.
