Watching the sunset in silence would be super nice if it weren't for the anxious energy that bounces inside of Zelos' core, a ball of nerves that he desperately tries to keep locked inside, away from his driver and under as much control as he can. Like a lock under key being pushed at from within, the fake sun in the horizon slowly, finally starts to descend, remnants of discord in the Aegis' subconscious fighting for a way to express themselves in the empty canvas of his mind, a silent clue to his mental being while he thinks on how to go about this at all. It's a good enough distraction, at least. But for all he prides himself on his silver tongue Zelos actually has no clue how to do this, so the silence spreads, seeping into his bones, his veins, his dream.
Thankfully it doesn't last too long--Sheena breaks it first, asking about why she's here, and Zelos has the decency to laugh sheepishly at her careful tone. "Can't I just want to spend a nice sunset with my dear driver?" he jokes, but... yeah, this must be weird for her, huh. All the other times she's been here have been against her will, so Zelos can't say he blames her for being weirded out. He clears his throat. "But, yeah. Got a question about your world I'm sure you'd be able to shed some light on."
Over in the horizon, briefly, the sun flashes red as the intrusive thought of a dead opportunist comes to the Aegis' mind. He pushes it away as fast as he can, the red flash easing itself into the oranges of the sunset instead. The moment the flash comes the Aegis immediately chooses to draw attention to himself by stretching and yawning loudly, arms held up until his bones pop back in place, ever the image of lazy, casual nonchalance. "I was talking to Lloyd during our walk, earlier," he says to fill the air, voice steady, arms falling back down as he properly sits up to look at his driver, turning to her and gesturing with a hand while holding an easy, casual smile. "He said something about exspheres. I guess I got curious and wanted to ask what you know, since he says you have one, too."
