['Sup, ADR. Today, there's a certain Fonon Sentience in here -- but he's appearing as a pillar of flame.]

[And...wait, what? He's standing behind a booth? A banner is hanging over his head, which says:

LORELAI'S SPECIAL SCORE READINGS -- FOR FREE TODAY ONLY!

And underneath that cheery caption, there's some fine print:

Disclaimer: the Score may or may not be just one of many paths -- decide on your own. So please, Those Who Would Seize Glory should go away.

[So what would you do, sweet, innocent, non-Van residents of the ADR? Ask for a Score reading? Try to kill him? Dump some water on him before he sets the ADR on fire? The choice is yours!]

[Luca folded his arms over his chest.]

I don't really care what was or wasn't written in the Score. I've seen how dependent people are on it. It's kind of sick.

As for my father, his name is Szayel Aporro Granz.

Perhaps it's because those people believe the Score is absolute, when it might not truly be.

[Helllooooo crypticness. Like that's anything new.]

[The flames flicker uncertainly for a moment.]

But that is...

Tell me, Light of the Flamboyant Flamingo, who are the members of the royal house of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear? More specifically, who is the son of the Scarlet Duke?

...just call me Luca...

[He paused a moment, frowning.]

I guess you're referring to House Fabre? If you are, then you're asking for Luke fon Fabre. I've heard he's supposed to be under house arrest, but he keeps breaking out of it or something.

But Light of the Flamboyant Flamingo sounds much more grand, does it not? Besides, I think it's a universal rule or somesuch that I have to speak in riddles and too-literal language...

[Nice day, isn't it, fourth wall? Meet battering ram!]

Then, you truly are not the replicated scion of my power? How odd...

Perhaps there are more than one replicas in your world.

Uh... yeah, whatever.

[His dad got to you, didn't he? Really, some times his father takes his experiments too seriously...]

Replica? Those things that the heretic commandant was accused of making?

[Lorelai doesn't know pinky's dad, and isn't sure he wants to know.]

Yes, and you should be one of them.

[Unfortunately on Luca's world, Lorelei's the whole reason Szayel was there on Auldrant to begin with. Whoops.]

Not... that I know of. Sorry.

[Huh, Lorelei really messed up that time, gack.]

It would defeat the purpose of keeping you in the dark if you were told that you were a replica, wouldn't it?

[Not really; Luca grew up to be a good guy, Asch/Luke went home, the Fon Master lived, Arietta never joined the God Generals, and Van's known as the heretic commandant for replicating Luke. Things are still in the process of going to shit, though.]

Not really, since I don't believe it.
