[Sephiroth's frown softens around the edges of his eyes a little. Awkward much; this is only one of the reasons that he doesn't make a habit of socializing very much more than what is considered appropriate. It's uncomfortable and to think that what he said could easily have been taken the wrong way doesn't help.

He smiles a little, down at Rukia and then moves to take the seat next to her anyway. As a way to make up for the confusion he clearly caused.]

No need to apologize. It's my mistake, I wasn't clear.

[At least he can see some more of the room now he's sat on the couch; before long eyes are drawn to at least acknowledging whereabouts Terra is at that moment.]

Besides, I suppose it could be seen as a date. Between...friends.

[Careful, so careful using that word.]
