Luckily, Soren rather despised laguz as a rule - cat laguz in particular - and so was unlikely to draw the comparison without good reason. Either way, he blinked at Sephiroth - almost as if he suspected some kind of trick - before nodding once and stalking right past him.

He did glance back once as he neared the prow - more to ascertain if he's being followed than anything else. And then carefully made his way to the railing to peer over. His moogle clung to Soren's robes, and Soren was careful to keep a firm grip on the railing, but he seemed largely unbothered by the air blowing past as he carefully studied the land below.

Of course.... even the skies aren't always safe from monsters, and wouldn't it be convenient if a few flying zu chose this moment to dive bomb the airship? (If only to force these two to not spend the rest of their flight ignoring each other....)
