[ Cloud snaps back to attention as he hears someone call for him, looking up from the fountain and where the green orb was just moments ago, to take a look at who's trying to get his attention. ]

Oh... Scott. Uh... hey.

[ There's certainly something off-kilter about the way Cloud addresses him, as he sort of... gingerly makes his way out of the fountain. ]

I'm... alright, I think. [ Not exactly a ringing endorsement. ] I just... saw something weird in the fountain. But it's not there anymore. Must've been out too late last night because I've got a killer headache now. Practically seeing things.

[ He gives a nervous little chuckle under his breath. It's meant to be reassuring, but something about it rings hollow — Cloud doesn't even really believe himself. Something about what he saw was too... real to be swept away as a hangover migraine. ]
