[Cloud is at the fountain within a few minutes after sending the message, glad to be done with the eye sore that showed up with every one of Sephiroth's messages. He's unsure what to expect, but hopefully, it'll be answers to what Sephiroth has been alluding to for a while now.
When Sephiroth arrives, he'll find Cloud sitting on a bench by the fountain, elbows resting on his legs.]
[Sephiroth's entrance catches Cloud off-guard and he's immediately on his feet, hand on his sword. Even here, he shouldn't let his guard down with Sephiroth.]
Why would Jenova be calling anyone? Does it have anything to do you being back at Shinra HQ—
[But Cloud suddenly pauses, trying to recall the events of that night. Before he had found himself in Songerien. Parts of it are a blur and not because of the time that has passed. Was Sephiroth really there then? He remembered seeing him but he couldn't get close to him. Not with the hooded entities stopping him before he could close the distance.
Jenova seeks to reunite with itself. To become whole -- become complete. Her will reaches out to draw all her scattered pieces together. No matter how small. Or how much they've been used in another.
[At that he stops to look at Cloud as though he's judging him or gauging every reaction.]
[Sorry to disappoint, but Cloud's brows only scrunch up even more as Sephiroth goes about his explanation. While he can piece a few things together, why it was called Reunion and the such, he's still left mostly confused.]
Then what's all that got to do with me? Why do you keep bringing it up?
[There were things Sephiroth said to him that didn't make sense at times... But if he were telling the truth that he comes from the future. That would make sense, wouldn't it? That there was more the Cloud couldn't grasp, couldn't understand. And yet there was no way to verify any of this either.]
Don't let Rufus hear you say that. He might get a touchy about it.
[Jokes aside though.]
That means we haven't defeated you, doesn't it? That you're still around somehow.

Hello, Cloud.
no subject
Can't even show up normally, can you?
no subject
What would you consider normal?
no subject
It's not important. That's not what we're here to talk about.
no subject
[Why discuss the reason they both originally came here when they can talk about that instead?]
no subject
[He waves a hand in front of him, hoping that will be he end of it.]
What's this Reunion you keep going on about?
no subject
The reunion is when all those who hear her call come together.

Jenova.

So instead, he tries a different approach.]
What's Jenova got to do with any of it?
no subject
Everything.
[Cloud knows this. Cloud should know this.]

You don't know.
[That comes out as a statement, not a question.]
But now I question what do you do. What happened before you ended up in this dream, Cloud?
no subject
[That's what Sephiroth had said to him, right? He still didn't understand what it meant but he was sure of that much.]
no subject
So for you Midgar still stands.
no subject
[That sure isn't omnious sounding at all.]
The only thing that fell was the Sector 7 plate.
no subject
[This is all interesting and could go very many ways, even if it just turns out that Cloud has lost his memories again.]
The Shinra empire falls with Meteor's arrival. No more plates to cover the sky.
