The yellow chocobo didn't seem convinced of Demeter's submissive noises until Angeal stepped in and made contact. She chirped a similarly low, clicking noise and made a point to attempt to rub her side against Sephiroth's as she turned to stride back to the undergrowth she had been searching in.

Throughout all of this time, Sephiroth delivered only a single flick of his flaring eyes in Angeal's direction. He wasn't one to deliver such brutal silent treatment to a friend, but perhaps he had been too generous to consider Angeal as such still. He blinked shortly after and walked away after the chocobo, crushing all of the things he wanted to say to Angeal as deep into the back of his mind as they would go.
