[[ooc; Sorry for the delay! My internet went out for a week and I despise phone tagging. :( The problem's sorted now and I'm back and v happy to continue but if too much time has passed between responses, please don't feel obligated to reply!]]
[So no Reeve. Or Shelke. Or Yuffie. Or Cid. Short of the ninja, part of him had wondered if the fact that communication had been lost with the Shera prior to the jump was in some way related to this- that somehow, this had happened to them too. Yet... No.
He doesn't show disappointment. He certainly didn't show any of the faint worry that went through him at that realization. Instead, his expression mirror's Reno's own. And, as he moves his arm to allow his cloak to fall back to where it should be...]
I've seen Cloud. He told me about her.
[Aerith, of course. Truly, any of his friends- Cloud, Tifa, or Nanaki being here was... bizarre. Considering he'd not long seen or spoken to them upon Gaia. Hours ago, for him. At various points in the future, for them. Ot them here.
But Aerith...
That one's the most perplexing. And Zack... Where had he heard that name mentioned before? Three years ago? When Cloud had-? A bell's ringing there. And it gives him an inkling behind the ex-SOLDIER he'd spoken to upon the Royal Fortune. Possibly the same person. Perhaps not.
But that makes him think.
His eyes then move- darting around the street. He'd half-expected to see another tall man in the vicinity. One that was completely devoid of hair. Part of him cursed himself that he'd not perceived Rude already. But as he looks... it becomes obvious. Unless Turk covert operation training happened to be better nowadays, Rude wasn't anywhere close.

His eyes move back to Reno, his brow furrowing.]
And you? Your people?
