[Probably wouldn't, no. Or, at the least give him a pout glare.]
Why shouldn't I be..? if you've picked it up, you need to take care of it until it's somewhere safe. Which is NOT with me, Zack! Where would I keep it?
I have NEVER popped out an egg no matter how many times you pull hard boiled breakfast eggs from behind my ear, Zack! And it's *not* going to stay safe unless you keep it warm!
And you need to wrap it in something. Probably several layers? And... I guess, keep it either next to your body or find an external heat source to keep it near. If you don't, and it's cold for too long, it's just gonna die, you know.
[But please insert 'it will not!' right there, okay?]
You've never observed wild chocobos? Or, um, learned about them in school? We didn't have that much schooling in Nibelheim, sure, but, we learned some stuff about some animals.
The next egg you pull from behind my ear I'm cracking in your HAIR, Zack.
And that might work... SOLDIER tops are pretty heavy fabric. Just turn it around often? I'm not sure that will work, but it's worth a try? And *don't* try to sit on it.
I think you have, once or twice, but I remember you managing pretty well anyway.
You're not fluffy OR fat enough on either your stomach or your ass to pull that off, and you know it. [The only reason he's saying that at all is because this is text, and that makes it easier.] Just be careful, and it should survive until you can get it to a nearby ranch...
[Yes it was. Super fake and he really can't act in front of people he likes. Guess who's blushing? And it takes a while after the second reply before the third comes, but it does eventually come.]
With absolutely no judgement of the quality of your ass, Zack, it's certainly not the sort of fat it would need to be to be of help to a chocobo egg if you'd get it into your giant head to SIT ON IT.
[Mostly because he's not certain he wants to admit either the not-quite-just hero-worship crush he has on Sephiroth or the more damning one he's... pretty sure he has on Zack but shhh.]
[he's never going to admit his eyes strayed ok. That's a very... adorable picture, okay. And not quite what he meant when he said 'keep it close', but hopefully that is warm enough for the egg.]
Bonded already, huh? Then you don't need me. I'd still take it to the nearest ranch when you can, though.

How much would I have to beg for you to adopt it?

Are you at least keeping it warm?!

You know, for someone who doesn't want it, you sure seem concerned for it's well being.

Just what I've learned watching you.

I thought I saw you checking me out. But then you sneezed and blamed it on the dust.
That was a totally fake sneeze by the way. We really gotta work on that.

Do I need to send you a reminder?

You know.
That I'm the most handsome guy you've ever met.

Fine. Let's say you are. Are we finished with this topic now?
[Just play it off, and maybe Zack will stop harping on about this!]

That's more like it! See, that wasn't so hard, was it?
I think you've earned a reward.

Guess it wasn't, no. And, uh... a reward?

Don't be silly, Cloud. I'm the daddy in this scenario. You're the mommy. And this little guy is Rain.

don't call him out like this surely he has managed to keep his eyes to himself in Zack's presence!]... Rain. Rain, Zack? Also NO. Were are you even going to keep it?
