It was a dumb joke and Zack's follow-up is also dumb, but Cloud ends up smiling a little wider anyway, and a few chuckles escapes him, but Zack suddenly falling silent stops Cloud too. He's about to turn around when Zack suddenly bursts out laughing, loud and a little too sharp and---

"... Zack..?" Staring, Cloud reaches out hesitantly, then lets his hand drop. Then Zack's leaning on him, still laughing, and Cloud's... pretty sure it wasn't that funny. Feels mostly confused, but doesn't dare to move. About to ask if Zack's okay when he finally straightens up, the bright smile on his face answers Cloud's unasked question and despite the fact that he's still confused, Cloud can feel something relax a little at the sight of it.

"... Yeah, I do," he says with a nod, and even if he doesn't, really, know what Zack's talking about, what Cloud thinks Zack means, he certainly understands. Then he grimaces, dragging a hand through his hair. "Just wish... it wasn't so hot."

At least these suits seem to keep the sand from getting inside them. Otherwise things would be... uncomfortable and unpleasant both.
