Natani: Are you saying that I remember myself wrong?
Young Natani: Probably more than you realize. A lot of blanks had to be filled in after our mind was shattered.
Young Natani: I know you blame me for all the feelings you associate with being a woman.
Young Natani: But truthfully, I don’t think we’re as different as you believe.
Natani: What do you mean?
Young Natani: Natani, I didn’t cut my hair and dress like a boy just to join Zen in the guild.
Young Natani: Secretly… I liked it. I mean, I didn’t mind being a girl, but… I liked being seen as a boy.
Natani: What? I disguised myself because I was desperate! I had to!
Young Natani: No, that’s just how Zen saw it! I never told him.
Young Natani: Don’t you see? You’re always giving Zen so much credit for making you who you are now. But the way you see yourself… the feelings you have, both masculine and, yes, occasionally feminine…
Young Natani: …It all comes from you.
