[ The idea that they're all from different planets is quite true, though she supposes he has no way of knowing how that one statement manages to assuage the sense of worry that keeps finding her. Aerith looks at him with her expression falling for a moment, considering his words, and she knows she'll think about them later. For the moment, though, she just listens to him, turning towards him to face Trahearne with her complete attention. They should start walking, she realizes, but Aerith could not imagine not listening to him right now. She's fascinated by him; for her own personal reasons and for the simple fact she really is talking to a tree person. Goodness! She never thought they'd actually talk back. ]
