A little bit of a pampering. That's exactly the part that Sephiroth wasn't sure that he could really deal with all that well. Zelda was one of the first visitors he'd taken though; perhaps it wouldn't be too bad. It wasn't as if he were against them doing so, only it was rather foreign to him. What little downtime he'd had during his past, the emphasis had always been on getting up and out again, the sooner the better.

"There are plenty of healing aids available, at least." It was a fact he'd still be in a lot worse condition if it hadn't been for the skill of a few of the white mages and the potions that were available.

"Hm?" Sephiroth minutely pushed his shoulders up and back into the backrest again and then tilted his head more in Zelda's direction as she pulled the unexpected out from her pocket. The quick blink he delivered betrayed more than a little surprise.

Behind his eyes, Sephiroth quickly recalled where he had left that trinket. It had been one of the few items kept on his small bed stand in the barracks, being as he couldn't sleep with jewelry on. The rush of the flames he felt keenly in his memory, he remembers purposefully if somewhat hurriedly slipping the black cord on around his neck as he heaved what he could of his armor on.

Said eyes blinked away and down away from Zelda as she held the necklace out for him to take. Sephiroth felt that flush rise again no matter how he tried to steel his jaw against it. He hadn't even realized he'd lost that, within the heat of battle as he had been. That it had found it's way back into Zelda's possession somehow-

"-Where-" He looked back to that beaming face but then dropped the question half finished as he raised his right hand to take the gift from her again. "It must have fallen away. I didn't mean-"

What words Sephiroth might be able to conjure though; they didn't feel good enough of an excuse. That bitterness quickly leaked all over his facial expression.
