Wow, wow! [One last affronted ribbit as they hop out into the road while no one's looking.] See if I let her keep you!
[Despite his complaining, he absolutely thrilled. A joke! With confidence! As if Cloud wasn't hot enough already... it's almost unfair.
He wriggles through the grate alongside Cloud, helping to twist and rotate the miniaturized Buster Sword so it fits and the two can hop their way through the simple duct path and into the heart of the shop. There's a bit of a wait in frustrated silence as the shopkeeper does his rounds and waits sleepily for customers, until finally it comes up to a break time (or he's pretended to work long enough) and he wanders outside for a smoke. A long series of moments after the door closes and locks behind him... Zack straight-up kicks the inside grate off and hops down.]
Okay! We should have a few minutes. One Kiss each, and if you find any potions, take one of those too, yeah? Might need it in an emergency. [A beat, and then-] Just one, though.
