[French fries are infinitely easier to stuff into your mouth than whole planets, too, Caduceus is pretty sure. So maybe that helps. Seems like a good enough tactic to start with, anyway. So you know, what? He nods. Sure, go for it. Kid seems to need more support and confidence, anyway.]

I'm sorry I wasn't able to give you what you wanted. I'll... keep thinking about this, see if there might be other options we could pursue. If purging it outright is too much, perhaps removing some of it could be attempted instead. Weakening its hold on you could make a difference without taking your life.

[He doesn't yet know a spell that could do that, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Or that it can't be invented. Wizards create new spells for themselves all the time. He knows it's possible. The Wildmother's voice can't reach him here, so... he'll have to speak for himself.]

[The boy shakes his head; there's nothing to apologize for.]

Please don't apologize. I gained more than I thought I'd get, even if it wasn't what I originally sought. If nothing else, I now know one day I can actually stop, with the right means. And I'm very grateful for that.

[He'd been planning to try to find alternatives, like throwing himself and Jenova into a sun. Maybe there's other, less flammable ways to get it done. Nice ones, that don't hurt.]

But if something is found that I can make use of, I won't say no. Thirteen's opened the entirety of the universe to me, just because I haven't found an answer yet doesn't mean there isn't one to be found.

[It's beyond his scope of knowledge, though. He's no wizard, to invent new spells that might change one's very DNA.

As he slowly stands again, there's a moment of hesitation; he should go, but surely one last question..]

I don't know if when I die, my world will accept me into the Lifestream. I might be ... too alien. Do ... do you suppose, your Wildmother might?

[Caduceus shrugs. Whether he should apologize or not, he's already done it, so that's that. He is grateful that Sephiroth doesn't feel as if he's left empty-handed, though. Even without a full resolution, there is some progress that's been made, here.

The last question has him surprised at first, but it quickly transitions into another gentle smile.]

I've never known her to reject one who comes earnestly to her arms. It's not in her nature. [Little domain pun for you, ha ha.] I'm certain she would.
