❝—Stranger?❞ Expression momentarily troubled, there is nonetheless a trace of attempted playfulness present within his youthful voice. Trooper padding his way closer towards the SOLDIER he’d somehow managed to befriend, Cloud works his lips upwards into a small smile in preparation for the moment the taller male turns around in order to face him. It wasn’t like such a well-trained warrior to allow himself an unguarded moment, surely; so the teen feels it safe to assume that his senior fighter already knows well of his presence and who it necessarily belongs to. ❝It’s only been a few days, Zack.❞ The young blond mutters, head tilting to one side ever so slightly in a manner most tentative. ❝You haven’t forgotten me already, have you?❞
Smiling, a small chuckle fell from between closed lips, breaking the natural silence for but a moment. Eyes of cyan flickered at the younger male, accompanying the smile that was directed to him. The solitary knee fell from atop the wall, hanging over the lip just like the other as both hands met the edge once more. A moment was taken to wriggle long fingers along the edge before a quick push was met by a hop; within a moment, slightly worn boots found cobble once more. Approaching the other, a single limb raised to the height of the blond head, sent forward with the intent of ruffling his hair. ❝'Course not, country boy.❞ The lilt of his friendly voice slipped out without much thought. ❝Didn't quite expect to see you here, that's all. Nice surprise.❞
