Small details can be important. Example, Vera receives messages that appear in her mouth; someone or something has rewritten her genes and activation sequences. Among the genetic changes, her body is manufacturing messages on rolled up paper, which are brief snatches in Italian from Dante's La Vita Nuova. Net is there to translate these for her (until he's not).
These messages foreshadow the stages in her character's evolution as she changes from human into whatever the changes made to her genes designs. La Vita Nuova.
