Cloud let Reeve take care of his own business work. If that meant working with Rufus Shinra, that was their own personal relationship. Cloud wondered if the other had said it on purpose. Reeve could have many projects that would benefit help. "I don't need to know your personal business affairs."
Truthfully, he doesn't. Cloud focuses his attention on Rufus as he speaks about not having the chance to go anywhere. The disease would have kept him in doors the entire time fighting off the symptoms and doubts. Cloud knew of the darkness that constantly lingered at the back of the mind. "I will get the estimates needed and give them to you."
He presses his lips together rolling them to one side and holding them there briefly before quietly saying. "You should take the chance to go out now. Before you get too sucked up into the work that you will have ahead of you."
"Where do you suggest I go?" It was an honest question said without a hint of sarcasm. He was actually curious since he had honestly seen very little of the world. Even when he had been outside of Midgar, he had never been free to explore where he wanted to whether if he was under house arrest in Junon or when he had been kidnapped.
He had to admit that Cloud did have a point. He had every intention of throwing himself back into establishing Shinra into a new company as well as working on WRO projects with Reeve that could benefit from his assistance. There was so much to be done that there was plenty of work to go around to both of them and then some.
"You've seen more of the world than I have, Cloud. I'm curious as to what you would recommend." He has no shame in admitting that since he's sure Cloud wouldn't be surprised that Rufus had very limited experience in life outside of SEPC.
Cloud opens his mouth as the question Rufus asks. He hadn't expected one quite like that coming from the business man. Surely, he had been to other places than the normal Shinra places. He could suggest all sorts of places but would they be places he would want to see again.
His heart beat quickens within his chest as he bites at the corner of his bottom lip. What should he say? Cloud glances back over at Rufus as he grips onto his knees.
"I may have seen plenty of the world. I would go to the Forgotten City." Since the last time he had been there had been during a fight and not the other memory he had there. Cloud wondered what sort of feelings or emotions would come from there. "I don't believe I would be the best at recommending places."
If he had a choice to go back to any of the places, he's not really sure if he would. Cloud knew he could make new memories there and he would have a different memory to hold onto. But he's not sure if now is the time for it, but maybe truthfully it was.
"I don't really know what you would want to find in the places I've been to." The Forgotten City would be different from any other place he could suggest.
