[Angeal's voice isn't as much of a surprise to hear as Zack's had been, but it still catches the 2nd Class SOLDIER off guard, still leaves him speechless for longer than he would like. And that, of course, is the reason behind the hours and minutes that pass before he responds, not to mention the reason he chooses to respond via text rather than audio.]
[Even when he begins typing, he's not certain of what to say much less what he is saying. He just knows that he has to say something before too much time passes and the opportunity is missed. Or he blinks and realizes this is all some kind of cruel apparition.]
You're here. That in itself is a great place to start. I think it helps a lot more than you realize, or it will with time.
[He stares at that for a while. It seems terribly short, but sentiments like, 'I've missed you' and 'I'm glad we're all reunited again' seem better left coming from Zack, if they should come from anyone at all. After all, Kunsel was never as close to Angeal as he would have liked to have been. He mostly admired the 1st Class SOLDIER from afar. And so, it continues to feel like the appropriate thing to do.]
[He sends his short message and...sits back and waits.]
