[iattractmushi]

Cloud watched the memory unfold. His memory. That wasn't anywhere near as bad as he had been expecting it to be... though apparently, his former life was even more interesting than he'd thought. And mushi... two different kinds of mushi, even. He wondered if the different kinds had names, and what they were called. Though nothing seemed muffled or blotted out, like it had been in his crystal-given memory, this one didn't seem to have much information, either.

Other than the business with his eye. Had he lost his other eye in the same way as this girl? Or had he lost both, and been given a new eye the same way as well? His hand drifted up to hover over his own 'dead' eye, though he didn't touch the bangs. He had always wondered about this eye, in a distant sort of way, ever since he had first seen at it in a mirror. He had never wondered too much about why it was this way for some reason, but it had concerned him a little the way no light ever seemed to penetrate the blackness in the socket.

The last part of the memory, the part about the river of light, interested him as well, and the mention of a 'second eyelid.' The two seemed to go together, somehow... how could one close their second eyelid? Something to think about, later.

He glanced over at the others. He didn't mind that they had seen it; it was clearly not a very private memory. But was that it? Could they leave now?

Well that had been interesting. And Lea thought that without sarcasm. He recognized Cloud in the memory, so obviously it had belonged to him. What an unusual world Cloud must have come from--second eyelids and...mushi? Was that what that strange looking creature had been? A mushi? Hopefully Edensphere would never get attacked by giant mushi, in that case. Lea was rather fond of his eyeballs. He glanced at Cloud, suddenly very curious if there was just a creepy hole in his head where that eye should have been, or if he'd gotten another glass eye to fill the space.

Something about the idea of darkness consuming anything, eyes or otherwise, sent a shudder creeping up Lea's spine, and he gave Cloud a somewhat wary frown.

"Neat trick," was all he said.
