"Hm." Cloud nods. Angeal and Nanaki - both make sense. He doesn't love the idea of having to "report" to everyone he knows about his relationships, but he supposes in this case it's the fair thing to do, even if just to set expectations.
He tilts his head slightly as Vincent goes on. At first, it seems like a bit of a non sequitur, but the connection clicks in Cloud's mind quickly. He is a little surprised that Vincent is following through on that promise, but pleasantly so. For just this moment, it feels like it used to - like they're not just friends but confidants, equals, and that he's someone Vincent can trust with his own feelings. It helps confirm that he's doing the right thing, bringing these developments to Vincent, even if this doesn't last.
"So that's why." Why Vincent had been so stunned. Cloud watches him hide in his cowl the way he always used to and grows thoughtful. "And...you want to make sure Sephiroth doesn't make the same mistakes you did. Right?"
