Sheena hadn't stayed asleep long, even with Zelos being gentle when he'd kicked her out. Some combination of his unease and her own mess of an emotional state had dragged her into wakefulness, and when she'd found Lloyd the only one awake, she'd called up to him to see if he wanted company. It's almost normal, a soft little nothing conversation that they could've had in any world after a bad night, and Sheena clings to that, lets it steady her heart and chase off a few of her worries.

When Lloyd jumps down, she hesitates, glancing down. Malos is up, obviously, but Zelos is, too, and… He probably doesn't want to see her, right now. The guilt that her conversation with Lloyd had softened bubbles up again, just for a second, before she pushes it away. It's fine. She doesn't mind staying up here a little longer - the early morning light is pale and dappled by the branches above her but warm anyway, and the others' words filter up to her as she closes her eyes and continues what the time spent with Lloyd had started and centers herself.

It's nice, actually, letting the conversation drift past her, though she has to muffle a very undignified snort of laughter and bright amusement as she realizes what Lloyd's trying to pull. And then Zelos calls for her, which she really hadn't expected, and she jolts a little as he waves, with a ripple of surprise. Well - maybe that was all the space he'd needed? S'mores don't sound like a bad idea, anyway. Sheena pulls herself to her feet, as casually as if she'd been on the ground, and eyes the distance for just a second before she leaps, straight down. Her landing is just as nonchalant, coming down onto one knee for a moment to distribute her weight better before she straightens up, heading over to Zelos.

"Don't look at me, my world didn't even have s'mores til Lloyd introduced them," she says, though the uncertain smile on her face as she catches Zelos's eye doesn't entirely match her tone. Not that she'd spent much time in Tethe'allan cities since the worlds were reunited, but the last time they'd stopped in on Regal he'd mentioned that Lloyd's prank had actually managed to take root in at least one noble's household, so far, and Sheena can't help the way her smile gets a little closer to a real grin as she remembers that. "What do you need?"
