*STARES AT* DAT ASS. DEM LEGS. DOHS EARS!!!
"A-ah..." Slowly taking an uncertain step back, the blond awkwardly lifted a hand to his shoulder, fiddling with his strap to secure it as he eyed the stranger carefully, unsure whether or not he should be on guard.
You were born with beautiful eyes. That will remain the same for as long as you are you.
Unsure how to respond, Cloud raised a hand to his nape in a sheepish gesture. "I..." Cheeks flushing faintly, he fidgeted and lowered his gaze to the ground beneath his boots. "Thank you..."
Now that things are a lot more peaceful and the Planet is no longer at risk... do you interact with the Turks more often on a casual basis?
...The Turks. The mere mention of them brought a terse frown to his lips, his brows knitting together as he turned his head to the side. His distrust in them was clear in the way his Mako-tainted blue hues glimmered. But hidden within them also revealed the inner conflict he felt. "...No. I have no desire for any casual relationship with any of them," he replied, his voice stiff and honest. "I don't even particularly like doing business with them."
Favorite clothing article? Favorite accessory?
His favorite... accessory...? A hand instinctively rose to his left ear, fingering it lightly. "...This... I think," he replied quietly.
Hey, I noticed your hair has been growing out... are you planning to let it grow out more? Plan to cut it? Want to grow it out until you have a ponytail again? Are you going to do little braids? How short are you going to cut it? You're keeping your spikes, right? Don't get rid of them! I think they look gorgeous on you! Well... you'll look gorgeous no matter what but... you know... I'm just saying...
"Ah--" Growing it out? Not really, no-- if anything, part of it had been trimmed. "Um, no... I'll keep it at this length till... whenever I feel up to having it changed... again." He frowned at the mention of braids, though. No. Never again would he suffer through that. Never.
I'm sorry. I'm not being straightforward. Probably because I feel that... I don't have the right, really, to step up and show how much you mean to me. I don't want to seem like I'm trying to protect you; I don't want to take advantage or underestimate you--and I don't. So I don't assume I can give you anything. But... I thought that... someone else you know, like Bartz, who I trust in to be close to you, to be there for you, through all things, when I can't... would be the best I could hope for.
A deep frown touched his lips, brows furrowed in question. "Wh... who...?" he asked in a hushed voice, eyes focused on the other, wanting to know who was speaking to.
I guess I understand that. When I have a day off, I actually spend most of my time baking. Something productive. -starts rocking on her heels- You should at least try to take a vacation. If you wouldn't know what you'd to do, why don't you take a vacation with a loved one? Do you have someone you could do that with? -thinks about her question again- that is, if I'm not intruding by asking.
Was there... someone? That was a question he failed to consider. One he didn't think about. One he... avoided.
Yes, there were people he cared about. A number of people... but, he felt this question referred to something deeper and, to that, he tentatively shook his head. "...No. It's... fine," he replied, turning his head with a thoughtful frown. "...I don't know, to be honest." Feelings were too complicated and confusing, he doubted he'd know it if it were directly in front of him.
"Powerful," eh? Well then... I got the answer I wanted. I hope you two have a good time together. >:3
"Ah-- wh-what?" Cloud simply stared, deeply confused but not entirely sure he really wanted to understand what just happened in full detail...
