[The cat, having learned from before, is going to use it's most pitiful sounding meow in response to Cloud saying to scram. Just sitting there trying to look adorable and sounding sad all at the same time.
And speaking of sad and adorable, Sephiroth is going to walk up by now.]
[Oh, come on, that's not even fair. Cloud gives the cat a Look, but he's still acting like it's some kind of barrier, as if he couldn't just...step over it.
Then it's Sephiroth who's getting a Look, but this one is more suspicious than anything.]
What? Why would I take your cat? Or...whatever this thing is.
I only let it stay around after it followed. Didn't you make a comment when you came over claiming to be surprised I care about anything, let alone a creature like this? Aren't you concerned for it's well being?
[And he doesn't know if it had one before it decided to follow Sephiroth that day. For all anyone knows he stole someone's kitten that day at the port.]
[He says as though he read Cloud's mind. He didn't. He can't at the moment. It's just the next logical thought since Cloud asked if it had a name, it doesn't, so he can give it one.
The cat, being a cat, proceeds to do the cat thing of not getting up or moving but laying down, still completely in the way.]
[Cloud's tone is stern and a little irritated when he says,]
Not naming your cat.
[And then there it goes, making itself comfortable. Cloud sighs and finally does just step around it, moving once again toward the door. Then, without turning around,]
[Sephiroth isn't offended by that comment nor is he going to stop him from leaving. It is the reason why usually were either in Zack's cabin or in Cloud's cabin most of the time in the past.]
[It's from the damn Shinra building, Sephiroth shouldn't like it, either.
He finally does take his leave without any further commentary. The cat, the carving, the cabin...it all makes Cloud uneasy. He decides to stop thinking about it.

You can take it if you want. The cat.
[He gestures towards it.]

[Thanks for admitting you do actually care about things, Sephiroth.]

You were here before.
[As though that's the entire reason why and not like Cloud isn't standing here now or anything.]

It got a name?

Date: 2024-06-26 07:23 am (UTC)[A name pops into Cloud's head, but he's not about to offer to name Sephiroth's cat. That'd be just as bad as actually taking it with him.
The thought has him looking down at the animal again.]
You gonna get out of my way, or what?
