[ She has a little bit of practice when it comes to keeping her balance thanks to years of darting, climbing and dodging away from the Turks. Who knew it would come in handy here? ]
[He follows her advice, still wobbling, although... after a moment, wobbling slightly less as the extra balance and some practice slides help him adjust. He'll get there! Bit by bit.]
Huh... it does, actually. Still, this is way different from just walking on snow.

[BUT STABILITY. He relents though, wobbling his way into the space between the wall and Aerith, letting her balance him instead.]
Y'know? I think it's because I'm unarmed. I'm not used to being on bad terrain without the Buster on my back!
[Sure Zack, blame the sword.]

You think you need your sword on to skate?

You can't take a sword everywhere. You should get used to it this way, too.
