[ Cloud doesn't take it. And Sephiroth wasn't expecting him to. His fists ball up, quietly. As he tries to stew on it. He's sure there's other reasons. But maybe the information is enough — to see him squirm. But Cloud is going to try and make the most of it. Try and figure out what he can do, knowing all this. He can't — won't — let Sephiroth win. ]

...Don't think this means anything between us has changed. I still don't trust you.

[ He grits his teeth. Sephiroth may be honest, but it doesn't mean he has to play to the man's tune. ]

Whatever it is you get out of this... I'll stop it, too. It and what happens to Aerith.

[ If nothing else, it keeps him driven, keeps him hungry, keeps him ready to continue the fight. ]

I don't expect you to trust me, Cloud.

[They are bound by hatred between them. If Cloud didn't feel the same intense hatred ... well, then that might be a problem. But clearly not one he needs to worry about any time soon.]

But you also know that I'm not lying. And I know you'll try to be the hero you always wanted to be. One day maybe you'll get there.

[After he goes through more suffering. The two of them are the same in that too. Their pain makes them stronger.]
