[ Cloud's nearly done with his. Turns out while he didn't have the same innate need for food or Chroma like Weiss did during this cycle, he still had an appetite not worth underestimating. His brow furrows again... So her body burns through food, and without food her body burns through Chroma. That's what Cloud was getting from what she just said. He knew the basics of it all, but seeing it for himself was another story altogether.
He goes quiet after an acknowledging hum, finishing what's left of his Teriyaki Chicken crepe; fortunately they're just in time to pass a waste bin on the street. Wherever they're venturing to next, he knows the area well enough to know there's plenty of places to hit up. Restaurants that are starting their dinner services, other convenient street food stands.
In his silence, Cloud has time to think about her cycle some more. And it hits him. If she got hungry soon and then had to wait for her food... Was this why the Cordis stocked up? So that they could just continuously burn through their supplies without waiting? Then, her Chroma... ]
Well until dinner -- [ To anyone else, this would look like some smooth attempt to hold the girl's hand. But this is Cloud, so. He doesn't think about what it looks like as far as helping her was concerned. ] -- might as well balance things out.
[ By holding her hand as they continue walking. At least with Cloud, he feels like nothing's amiss. Just giving her Chroma until she can have her fill for dinner.
If he's gonna be paying, he might as well get a partial refund out of it. ]
