Squinting at the chuckle, Cloud couldn't decide if that was bad or good. He hated it when he couldn't easily figure out why people laughed at him. Sure, considering who it was, he couldn't actually do much of anything, but he'd survived so far, even with the occasional too-sharp snarking done.
"Um... Yessir." That... wasn't what he'd expected - the helmet part, that was, not the latter - though maybe it made sense if Rufus wanted to know who was around him. With a little shrug, Cloud pulled his helmet off and tucked it under an arm as he returned to a more properly alert stance. "I want to join SOLDIER."
Better to just... cut it down to that. That was easy, and true.
