[He doesn't quite notice, but he does sense and feel Tifa's eyes on him as well as the increased warmth around him. So there's a moment where he's still staring outward before he turns his head slightly to flash her a soft smile as she comes against him.

It's funny how she feels the way she does, because he thinks similarly. Seeing her out here, making her own decisions, trying to work out the dream she's had so long...and being able to be a part of it. Perhaps that bit of sunlight is shining down on both of them right now, whatever snow surely gone or about to be as spring seems to have arrived early.]

Brick or wood? You could either make it wood deck or have it more solid. I feel wood would fit the aesthetic better, but brick would be easier to maintain.

[...Speaking of a deck, he glances upward.]

...What if we had an upper outside deck? Would be more interesting for those who may like birds and more space for cats to perch.

[Or would that be too much?]
