Holy Martel, Sheena, he literally just said Sin talk is a terrible ice breaker.
The air tenses after she says that, Sheena's mental slamming of the brakes nearly palpable and visible. At least she backed down, but Zelos still can't help sighing and rolling his eyes, shoulders sagging a little as he quickly opts to join her in sitting down to hide his taut expression. Look at this mess, he thinks. They've all barely known each other a day and they're already stepping on everyone's toes. And here Zelos was thinking that yesterday was the crazier day.
Oh well.
Sheena gives him a new out, but Zelos doesn't respond right away, opting instead for a noncommittal hum. He goes for eating in silence for a few seconds, trying to pull himself together a little before he even dares entertain such a heavy topic after what Anna just said, but. Well, everyone dies equally under Sin's reign, right? What's talking about that kind of inevitable death gonna do? It's natural.
Let's try to look as nonchalant as possible, Zelos. That means shrug, hum, and look up to the sky. "Just Sin in general, I guess," Zelos says, gaze lost in the clouds. "Which, I mean, I highly doubt there's anyone on this boat not affected by Sin, so. Fair game."
