So that Virche Evermore Ending

I was looking at CGs from the Virche Evermore games for some neat little icons (Mathias had one in particular I wanted to use because it's just fucking adorable), when I came across one from the fandisk and it gave me some thoughts---

This ending gives me so many plot bunnies because it says a lot about Scien, post having Yves and Ceres make their decisions. He was so sentimental about them, even when he was willing and able to kill them just because they had the keys to fix the island's main problem. At least in the routes of the main game, when Scien does decide to use Ceres as a human sacrifice, letting a modified clone like this go never seems to be a possibility.
It's only in the ending that she's both achieved some level of happiness and decides to sacrifice herself, not of guilt or self-hatred, but by some level of compassion (some can and will argue if this is the case) for the island's people. It definitely moved the cynic Scien somewhat, that he decided that this was a possibility.
So, not only did he do that, but this scientist wouldn't be dumb enough to let her go with her lycoris condition. How much time did he and his fellow researchers put aside to not only sequence her genes, isolate said problems, and gene edit it enough to make her replica not crash every five minutes?
And now he's given Ceres and Yves a "second chance" (probably as one of the last Replicas to be made), what kind of nonsense will these two get into? How much time had pass? How would Adolphe, Mathis, and Ankou respond? Given that the heart expansion DLC wasn't implemented into their Replicas, these versions of themselves don't have the same relationship, so what will it begin to look like? I'd like to think they would definitely have a special bond, but I don't think it would ever be the same as their predecessors, and I'm saying this as a big Yves/Ceres gal.
I just want to poke both god's favorite genius and god's favorite chewtoys because of what possibilities happen post-ending
