In his defense... the years since Darkness took their world have largely been spent with, somehow, less emotional maturity than he'd had before things had gone to shit. Would either one of them know how to deal with the other if there wasn't some level of friction between them? Of course he sasses Squall. That's.... how they are. How they've always been.
(He thinks, briefly, of Hayner and the others. An entire lifetime of memories and people that don't exist outside his memory anymore. How it's always been is shit. But he doesn't know how to be anything else.)
Whether Squall believes it or not he is making an effort. Which only makes it sting more when Squall just walks off like he's supposed to follow along like a good little doggie. (Somewhere he remembers being called the Sorceress's lapdog and that stings too.)
"One Garden to another, huh?" It could be an innocent enough statement, observation, even amusement but there's something biting and bitter in his tone that makes it clear it's not. What it is meant to be he's not sure. An accusation?
