Regardless of what Sephiroth wasn't saying, he knew that whatever had happened to create this mess had taken plenty of energy from his partner as well. He continued to lean for a few more seconds, gathering himself before smirking at the snapped words. "Is that concern for my well-being I hear?" He couldn't help but tease even in such a situation.

He looked up when Sephiroth's shoulders bunched, chuckling softly at the sight of air blades trying to move the dust away from them. No one could see them, and it didn't seem to help all that much. "Apparently your air slices just move the dust around," he remarked dryly even as he followed after Sephiroth.

He knew that they couldn't well be separated given their link, but he wasn't about to risk it. Besides, there were benefits. Regardless of his exhaustion, he moved up and slipped his arms around Sephiroth's waist, giving an squeeze. "Apparently I now have a strong enough will to activate Meteor," he murmured affectionately.
