No, it's not impossible, but goodness, is it unbelievable. After a long moment to let it sink in, she replies via video, needing some sort of visual confirmation from Shirou.]

He called himself Kerry... And was looking for someone named Natalia. When I introduced myself, he said his last name was the same as mine, and then I asked if his first name was Kiritsugu and he said that it was.
He said that he usually called himself Kerry because his first name was hard to pronounce.
[And so soon after she decided to stop waiting for him at the train station every weekend -- stopped checking every message that came across her watch in case it was him. Her chest aches with guilt.]
[She... can't say she would have informed him of the same, but what's done is done. Her lips thin as she takes a moment to contemplate how to proceed.]
...Do you know if he's found a place to stay? Or, perhaps... where he is now?
