Zack leans back in his chair, closes his eyes, and just…tries to untangle how he feels about all this enough to really think. He has to talk to Jon about this; there is no way he can just let this go without addressing it. It’s one more headache he didn’t need, but it happened so now he has to deal with it.
He opens his eyes finally, looks at Sephiroth, and sighs.
“I know. And even though I’d have to stop you if you tried, I understand…why you’re mad. And why you want to do that.”
He thought Trevor was going to be the main problem for Sephiroth moving forward…but now he’s having to revise that assessment.
He rubs his face.
“I’m going to have to talk to Jon about this, but for right now, I think…just staying here is good. We don’t have to talk anymore about what you saw, but I can…make tea.”
His mom used to say tea helped everything, and even though he’s not sure that’s true, he doesn’t know what else to do, either. Besides just…be here and be calm so hopefully some of his calm will rub off on Sephiroth.
He keeps his eyes on the other man while the silence lingers between them until Zack speaks again. He wasn't sure if Zack would understand his anger. He's not even sure he does now. But... he's trying.
As for the second part -- Sephiroth is uncertain what he really wants to do -- beyond what he already said. And clawing his own mind out. He doesn't really want to go anywhere, not even back to his own cabin. So maybe here is fine ...
"Okay," he finally says letting his own eyes close for a moment. Maybe he'll just sit here awhile.

"No. I'm not happy about it."
Even though he does believe Sephiroth needs to regain his lost memories...it shouldn't have been now. Or like this.
"Our heads are the only things we have to ourselves sometimes, so no, I'm not happy he did this to you."

"What are you going to do now? I attacked. I would have killed him had you not intervened. I still intend to. Right now that is all I want to do."
