Well, he'd been sorted. That meant that he'd finally gotten to leave the strange room he'd appeared in not so long ago. Which was good except that now Cloud had no idea where to go, or what he was supposed to do. He didn't know what being sorted into Hufflepuff meant or if he was supposed to go somewhere in search of it.

It didn't help matters that the only three people he knew at this place were nowhere to be seen. Somehow he and Zack had gotten separated and now Cloud had no idea where he was. The whole place with it's talking portraits and moving staircases was very confusing and he'd spent the better part of two hours wandering around. So of course he was now thoroughly lost.

"Hmm, loyalty," he said, wandering forward a little, circling Cloud.

"Do I need a reason to see how my favourite puppet is doing?" he asked, tilting his head and smiling. "I like you Cloud, you know that."

"Are they?" he asked, amused. He clicked his tongue. "No, they're over when I say they're over."

Sephiroth had changed, he just didn't know any other way to act around Cloud, to show that he wasn't about to run away from Sephiroth now that he knew what he wanted from the other.

"More than anything, Cloud, I've noticed how you've grown." He reached out, pressed fingers to Cloud's shoulder.

"Do you want me to hurt you, Cloud?" he asked, saying his name like a prayer. "You seem to be expecting it."

His fingertips travelled up to Cloud's collarbone, up his neck to his jaw, his cheek.

His thumb ran under Cloud's eyes, fingers cupping Cloud's cheek. He moved closer, tilting his head. "I only do so because you ask for it. Keeping me from my goals, standing in my way. When you're not in my way, like now, I'm free to pursue what I truly want. Aren't I?"

He chuckled lightly. "What am I doing?" He clicked his tongue, brushing his lips over Cloud's cheekbone, lips curving into a smile. "Surely you should be able to guess..."

Sephiroth hadn't moved at all once Cloud grabbed his hand, simply stood still and calm. Then he blinked slowly. "What I want is Zack. And you. What I need is Mother. But she's not here, and I intend to enjoy this purgatory until I may leave."

He stepped forward, wrapped an arm around Cloud's waist so he couldn't scuttle away, was stuck with Sephiroth's closeness, his intensity. "I intend to enjoy you."

"I hope that you wont," he purred, fighting against Cloud's grip on his wrist to draw fingertips across his lips. Cloud had responded to Jenova's call, though. He would, eventually, give in. Even if Sephiroth had to make him. He enjoyed Cloud too much to just simply let him be.

"Hmmmm..."

Staring at Cloud with an appraising gaze, Sephiroth dearly wanted to chase after that tongue with his own. He considered it.

"Zack seems to," he purred, blinking slowly. Making up his mind, Sephiroth closed what little distance there was between them, urged Cloud's lips open so he could lay siege to his mouth.

Sephiroth didn't let him get far, but he didn't try and kiss him again, not yet. He tilted his head curiously instead, waiting for an explanation or a tirade. He was curios as to how Cloud would respond, honestly.

Sephiroth tilted his head and his eyes wandered upwards as he thought. "Since the reactor. You caught my attention, then." It had taken a while to figure out why he'd caught his attention, but he had figured it out eventually.

Sephiroth snorted. "Yes, and quite a lot has happened."

He looked up at the ceiling for a moment, making no move to release Cloud in the slightest. "Your point being?"

*snerk*

Sephiroth's eyebrows went up and he tilted his head down to survey Cloud.

"I would believe that you're in the same position as Zack," he said, watching Cloud. "Think what you will of it, but don't expect flowers, chocolates and sweet nothings." Hell, on his better days, the best Cloud would get was the chance to be in his presence without the danger of being sliced to pieces.
