The air turns thick and still as Cloud takes a step back, his blue eyes skittering away from you’s. Shadows seem to catch in the spikes of his blond hair, hiding the storm churning behind his quiet expression. He grips the Buster Sword tighter—not to strike, but to guard a secret he won’t let himself name. The space between them feels less like distance and more like a wall he built himself.
