[It wasn't a taunt really, no. He's actually not sure what information Cloud might especially find useful in his journey. He could tell him the path all things are headed towards, but that'd throw destiny (even if that's already broken) for a great loop and he'd like to retain some semblance of control over future events.
As he moves further along, Sephiroth may give him more information. He knows there's already one particular instance Cloud would like to avoid as the group as already seen visions of it. While she's always been an irritation in Sephiroth's mind, his interest in her is very little. But it is something that will always be important to Cloud so ...
He'll see when they get there.
If Sephiroth were the type to roll his eyes in return, he would. He simply breaks his gaze away instead, glancing to another spot in the room as though anything else is more interesting at the moment.]
I'm going to tell you something important, Cloud. I want you to listen very carefully.
[He snaps his gaze back to the blond.]
Everything you saw, happens. From death to the calamity in the skies. Breaking destiny means you are free from fate, but even before with all of that taking place -- you still win. You did not see a possibility of destruction. You saw what already happened. If I simply wanted to win and destroy the planet, I'd just kill you now.
[Is that giving away too much? Too late to question it really. Of course that isn't really answering Cloud's question either. Sephiroth seems to be actively avoiding the topic all together. Feelings doesn't exist if you don't think about them, that's how it works right?
He'll just move it along and pretend that's totally not the reason he came here at all. No no, giving this information is the reason and not just something to distract Cloud with.]
