[ Actually, that is a little unsettling. Profoundly unsettling.
After spending all that time trying for so long in vain to ignore all the ruckus, this weird new silence is very nearly worse for grating on his fragile concentration. Those minutes feel a lot more like an hour or two, but maybe that's thematically appropriate, given the way things seem to be going.
He barely has time to react to both the shout and the toss, unused to being expected to play catch at a moment's notice. (General clumsiness aside, however, he does at least manage to fumble the materia out of the air with both hands and by catching in toward his chest. It's. Less than graceful.
Not to mention, a few papers go scattering, again, too.) ]
