[the sky... he reflects over her gentle words, content with being the quieter of the two as they went back to the clinic together. yet Euphemia wasn't the only one who felt something familiar about the other. could he not place his finger on why because the answer truly evaded him? or was it because of some deeper meaning? something that he was afraid to accept. a feeling that was far too soon to put a name to. that he shouldn't put a name to...]

Glad I made a good first impression. [dry as his tone was, he was already starting to relax around her. for the time being, Kumo seemed to keep to himself as he stayed behind the group. the boy was finally listening. even if it had to come from someone else this time. the two of them were going to have a good long talk about Cloud's home so that he could be a better partner for him! he had a good feeling about this Cloud Strife guy.]

I see... [as Cloud listens to her, he can't help but observe the twinge of a frown that marred her lips after she explained. yet it was such a fleeting falter in her spirit that before he had a chance to even ask, her eyes are right on him again. his world? ... it was a strange thought, reflecting back on the progress from his planet. asides Cid's dream crumbling apart, humanity hadn't even reached outer space yet. and now here he was, pulled from his own memories and into a world that encompassed many others...

how different was his from the world Euphy knew? well, he supposed that was the reason why she was asking after all.]

Let's see... [his arms fold over his chest as he thinks. surely every planet harboured things like the Lifestream, right? no point in going over that (so he thought...)] We've got...mountains, beaches, deserts- [he pauses there before shrugging at Euphemia. he can't blame her! where did he even begin when he didn't know anything about what life was like on other planets? all he could do was try.]

Maybe that's boring stuff...
