"Big Mommy"...even here I cannot escape monstrous mothers, it seems. First Jenova and now Clover. Still, to find my true mother is something of a relief. To know that I am perhaps more human than I imagined is quite incredible. I had thought I was simply a monster and now I can be...human. At least, as human as I can be. I even seem to be gaining a...family, of sorts. Though I considered Genesis and Angeal to be as close as brothers, it was not quite the same.
Here, I have Lucrecia. Valentine, should he ever get around to marrying her would be my stepfather although I doubt I can ever think of him as family. Still, he is not a terrible person and I can tolerate his presence. Loz and Yazoo are perhaps the closest to blood-brothers I could have, even if they wish to have nothing to do with me. Zack is perhaps the only one I can think of truly as a brother in this city. Certainly the Jenova cells injected into his system give us a connection. But my concern for him lies deeper than that. We knew each other...before. Once, he was merely 'Angeal's Puppy' and then he became...a friend, I suppose, though I tried to maintain a little distance... But now he is perhaps the person I am closest to in Manhattan. Is that enough to justify considering him as a 'brother'?
Would he like to be thought of as a brother of mine though? I doubt it but...
Maybe...
I had wondered when she would make her next appearance...
