[Sephiroth is unused to failure. Even they've only had a few haphazard lessons, that would have been enough, at most other endeavors, for him to begin grasping it. To learn something slowly--or perhaps not to learn it at all--is something that was drilled into him from a young age as unacceptable.
So it's difficult for him not to be frustrated, even as he tells himself that this was a long shot to begin with. An experiment with a narrow chance of success. The thing is, he wants to succeed. It's what he does. He is meant to be exceptional.
The Masamune is, currently, stabbed into the floor near the closed door, leaving his hands free. Better to distance himself from the muscle memory of thumbing the materia in the hilt, he thought. He's not sure it's made any difference.
At least it's quiet in here, if nothing else.]
