It was her. If nothing else, he couldn't deny that much. But she wasn't the one he'd met. Another version, or possibly even a past version... whatever the case, she was Orihime - one of the more reasonable kids he'd met in the place, however strange her words might get.

"That happens here," he eventually told her. He didn't want her feeling like she was going crazy if he could help it. Not if she was new. "It happens for me a lot anyway. Don't let it get to you."

He gave a glance away from her and out at the room. There was still no sign of Fai, nor of many that he knew. He tried to think if there were any still around from back then that might also know her. Fai, wherever he was, came to mind, but no others. He couldn't be sure who else she had known outside of him though. Either way, a warning would be good.

"I'm Kurogane, and just for warning, there could be others here who will know you that you've never seen before. I know one." He held up his good arm just shy of his own height. "A tall blonde named Fai."
