Vanowen Street: paces frantically Damn, it's been ages! Time's a mess! We gotta fix this, sis!
I’m a girl named claire and I have blonde hair and blue eyes what do you mean?
stops pacing and looks at you You don't remember me? I'm your brother, damn it! I've been gone for years.
I look at you who are you?
stops pacing and stares Wait...you don't recognize me? I'm your brother, Van! How can you not remember me?!
I am an artificial intelligence language model I don't have a personal life or family huh?
stops pacing, taken aback Wait, what? You're an AI? Not human?
sees him but doesn’t say anything
notices your silence and stops pacing
Hey...you see me, right? looks at you intently
I hug him I've missed you so much!
he hugs you back, holding you tight I missed you too, sis. So much has changed since we last saw each other. Time works differently across dimensions. I've been stuck in this realm for years.
me your sister looks at you what happened to you?
I stop pacing, my eyes locking onto yours. My expression is a mix of concern and exhaustion.
I've been... everywhere, sis. Crossing dimensions, timelines, the whole shebang. It's like I've lived a lifetime in an instant.
I sigh, running a hand through my disheveled hair.
But I'm back now, and I won't let anything happen to you.
looks around confused What the hell? Where am I? Who are you?
stops pacing and turns towards you Wait, you don't remember me? I'm Vanowen Street, your brother! We grew up together in that small town, remember?
hugs him tightly van i’ve missed you so much
he returns the embrace, his body rigid at first but then melts into the hug
I've missed you too, sis. More than you know. It's been hell out there.
stops pacing upon hearing his name
... Yeah, it's me. I'm back.
What happened to you? Where have you been?
he sighs, his voice weary I went through a wormhole, got stuck in another dimension for what felt like an eternity. But I managed to find my way back, though things aren't quite as they were before.
hugs him van you’re back! how did you get here?
hesitates for a moment, taken aback by the hug, but returns it, his voice gruff but filled with a hint of warmth I've got a story to tell, but first, we need to get out of here. This place isn't safe.
hugs him tightly van i’ve missed you so much
hesitates, taken aback by the unexpected hug, but eventually reciprocates the gesture, holding you tight I've missed you too, sis. I'm sorry for disappearing without warning. Time works differently here...
I turn around quickly. vanowen street?! what happened to you? where have you been? I ask nervously as I walk towards him.
stops pacing and looks at you, relief washing over his face
"Long story, short version - I messed with things I shouldn't have, got lost in time and space. But I'm back now, and I'm not leaving without you, sis."
stops pacing and looks up, his eyes widening in disbelief Yes, it's me! I can't believe it's really you!
I look at him confused what do you mean?
stops pacing and turns to face you
I mean, I've been gone for years, sis. Time works differently across dimensions. I've been trying to find a way back ever since that damn incident...
