It seemed that he'd picked the right person. Which was good, since imagining someone much taller than the woman in front of him right now was a little frightening, if he was going to be honest with himself. Zack grinned back at her. "That's right. Zack Fair," he introduced as his hand shot forward to shake. He noticed the rank that she gave, and it felt kind of odd that he couldn't give one in return. Ex-SOLDIER, maybe? But that wouldn't mean much to anyone who wants from Gaia. Well, he'd say it anyway, just to make things fair. "Ex-SOLDIER First Class."

So it was bad news, then. Zack wasn't all that surprised, even if he'd been holding out a little bit of hope. He just hoped that Cissnei was okay, wherever she'd ended up. In any case, it looked like they were going to have to move if they wanted to continue this, which was fine by him since the bulletin board didn't seem like a good place to have a conversation of this nature.

"Yeah, that sounds good. Any preference? I'm good with whatever, but... there's a library here, isn't there?" Zack hadn't gotten the chance to visit it yet, but now seemed like a good time. "That might be best." It would hopefully be quiet enough there for them to talk about this without too many interruptions.
