Well, it's more a partial answer than anything else, but Zack will take it, and not in small part because it is honestly given. And it's not a rejection, so really, he can't complain. If Cloud never remembers him -- a possibility he doesn't like to consider, but has to admit may come to pass -- then Zack hopes they'll still be able to be friends, just starting over.

"Thanks." He's not quite sure what Cloud means, the almost-massage or the almost-spar, and neither is he sure how to ask which one. But maybe it doesn't really matter, because both things have their place, don't they? He's hoping so at least, because Zack's really kind of enjoying what they're doing now, and he's really kind of enjoying the thought of having a proper spar with the blond.

"How're you feeling?"
