[ No ulterior motives, perhaps shockingly enough. Cloud's just having a weird night. Feeling lonely, maybe. He's sitting on his bed, drinking straight from a bottle of whiskey that he stole borrowed from Seventh Heaven. (He'll pay Tifa back for it later).
For once he doesn't flinch or startle when Sephiroth shows up. He just looks up and raises the bottle in greeting. ]
Knew you couldn't resist. [ His voice may be a little slurred. He holds the bottle out for Sephiroth. ] Want some? I promise I didn't poison it. [ He snorts out a laugh at that. ]
[Huh, well. He wasn't lying after all. He actually appears to be well on his way already. A small part of Sephiroth feels slightly insulted Cloud didn't wait for him. Just a little tiny part that he'll promptly ignore.
He will take the bottle though, because who is he to back down from a challenge? That's totally what this is. Totally how he's justifying being here.]
[ This is a completely absurd situation, but Cloud doesn't even care. He knows Sephiroth won't try to kill him, not like this. It'd be way too cheap. Just as Cloud wouldn't try to kill him in return.
He's a little surprised that Sephiroth actually accepts the drink though, but oddly excited at the same time. The idea of Sephiroth of all people, drunk, is hilarious.
[ He can't help laughing at that. It's so... petty. And that makes it hilarious, coming from Sephiroth. Or maybe it's just because he's drunk. Whatever. ]
You're pretty funny when you're not trying to kill me.
[ He snorts and snatches the bottle from Sephiroth to take a swig before he hands it back to him. Sephiroth does have some catching up to do, after all. ]
[He hasn't drank alcohol in years so he might very well be a lightweight. Or maybe all the enhancements and alien DNA make him otherwise. Either way, it's probably a good idea Cloud has stolen a good sized bottle.]
[Though as the alcohol starts to hit him, he wonders why he didn't come here sooner. Or do this sooner. Cloud is going to have to take back his bottle though.]
[ What a boring answer, but probably true. It's pretty amusing to watch him drink so heavily though, and so Cloud lets him do so for a moment. He's really curious how Sephiroth's going to act once the alcohol really hits him. ]
[Well, he's certainly starting to feel it. He's trying to hide it though under the slight delusion that he's perfectly fine. Because why would simple alcohol affect him at all?]
[He actually has to grab Cloud's shoulder in order to keep himself steady after the nudge. Which it's a good thing Cloud is enhanced because Sephiroth will probably have a hard time controlling his own strength after awhile.]
[ Cloud snorts, swaying a little himself when Sephiroth grabs his shoulder. He snatches the bottle from him and takes a swig. Sephiroth is obviously affected... this is going to be good.
With Sephiroth closer than before and with Cloud's judgement impaired, he leans in to him and reaches a hand out - impulsively grabbing at the chest straps of his armour. ]
Why's your chest exposed like this anyway? Seems kinda stupid to leave it all... open.
[ It's also distracting, but Cloud's not quite drunk enough yet to admit that. ]
Rarely is something capable of striking me so it does not matter. Perhaps if you did not get hit so often you would understand.
[Sephiroth is too drunk to care that Cloud is grabbing him like that. It's sort of 'whatever' at this point. He's probably not going to stop him from doing anything else, so use that to your advantage Cloud.
... Though he's probably going to be as far gone as Sephiroth here eventually.]
[ Wow, Sephiroth that's both rude and uncalled for. Cloud snorts and releases the chest straps, letting them snap against Sephiroth's skin. ]
I don't get hit often. Asshole. [ He presses his index finger to the middle of Sephiroth's chest, swaying a little. ] Next time we fight I'm gonna specifically target your chest. Then you'll see why it's a bad idea to.. to expose it like that.
[ Cloud scowls at him. Not a memory he's keen to relive, but luckily he's too drunk to find himself thrown back into that nightmare. Instead he decides to turn it back on Sephiroth. ]
I got you good too. Right here.
[ He presses his entire hand against Sephiroth's side, also leaning in closer, his other hand plopping down on Sephiroth's knee for a lack of any other place to put it. ]

Even if you did, you cannot kill me so easily.
[And with that he'll take a drink.]

He pats the empty spot next to him on the bed. ]
Sit down, you're too fucking tall.
no subject
He scoffs at Cloud's remark, but whatever. It's probably for the best to sit down, so he does.[
It is more as though you're far too short.
no subject
No, you're definitely too fucking tall. Are you secretly wearing heels or something?
no subject
I do not need heels to tower over your obviously puny state.

[He's just going to keep drinking from Cloud's bottle until he's stopped. Because being drunk is the only way to deal with this moment.]

[This is the strangest night they've had. What is even going on anymore? Oh well, he takes a nice long drink this time.]
no subject
[ Whatever "this" is. He glances at Sephiroth as he drinks. He wonders how much it would take for the man to get drunk. ]
Feel anything yet?
no subject
I suppose so.
[He does not remember what getting drunk is like. And he went years without a body. Cut him some slack.]
no subject
Well, keep drinking and you'll feel it soon enough. Then hopefully you'll be more fun.

Dunno. Boredom? Curiousity? Both? Take your pick. Why did you come?

How're you feeling?

... Fine. I'm fine.
[Totally fine.]

You sure? Not feeling a little buzzed?

But he does lean in a little closer.]
If I recall, you were fully covered up while still getting impaled --
[He speaks while bringing up his own hand to poke Cloud on the chest.]
Here.
