I feel like Cloud and Aerith fell in love the way friends sometimes do. It’s not romantic or anything of the sorts but it feels just as deep and meaningful.

Like they’d be willing to do anything for each other and can’t imagine life without the other. They’re each other’s rocks in situations others can’t really understand and they confide in one another when they feel as if there’s nobody else to turn to.

There’s a comfort in knowing the other person is and always will be there for them and even if there’s distance between them for however long, it’ll still feel like no time has passed for them. The thought of losing the other, in any sense of the word, is enough to cause them heartache.

They strive to help one another through their toughest battles and will put everything on the line to make sure the other is safe and happy. Even if it’s costs them their own happiness and comfort. Y’know?

Zack would be so stupidly possessive over Cloud when the blond woke up. He’d spent four years mildly aware of the shit Hojo was doing to the two of them and not being able to do a damn thing about it.

Then he’d spent another year hauling Cloud across continents, looking after the blond and protecting him from everyone and everything. Had done absolutely everything he could to get the two of them to safety together.

So like fuck was he going to let some random he either didn’t know or barely knew come between the two of them and try and take Cloud away from him now.

Not sure if it’s cadet Cloud suddenly gaining all the memories of advent children cloud or if it’s ac Cloud being transported back to those days but!

Cloud, armed with all his knowledge of the future and knowing everything he does is suddenly faced with a choice. He can either leave the military altogether and just avoid Zack Fair and everything that is Avalanche and Shinra and lead a peaceful life while Zack leads the one he was always meant to.

Or he can try and change everything. Save as many people as he can and prevent years of heartache and struggle.

Quite honestly (if this is AC Cloud) he’s not keen on the second option. Has lived such a horribly long and difficult life once already. He doesn’t want to go through it all again even if it would be changed cause of the knowledge he holds.

If its cadet Cloud then he’d be more willing to go with the first option, determined to alter the future and try and save everyone. Cause this is a Cloud who hasn’t gone through all this struggle. Yeah he’s got the memories of what he went through but he didn’t actually experience any of it.

Didn’t have to pick himself up over and over and over. Didn’t lose near everyone he came to care about. Didn’t go through any of it. So it’s easier to seperate himself from it and try and do better.

Zack going from sacrificing everything to save the world to sacrificing the world for those he cares about.

Cloud was always a sacrifice the world for those he cares about and now even more so than ever.

Tifa probably always will be a sacrifice everything to save the world but she’d be a bit more reluctant to do so later down the track.

Aerith is and always will be a sacrifice everything to save the world but she’ll fucking beat herself up over it and come to borderline hate doing it. Like the only thing stopping her is the whole Ancient thing she’s got going.

That ‘I could never love another song’ going around tik tok but with zack and cloud. Zack being the first one and it’s him watching over cloud as a cadet and dragging him across Midgar.

Then Cloud being the second with him kneeling over Zack’s dying body and then with him regaining the memories of Zack he’d lost.

This doesn’t align with game timelines at all but just roll with it for me yeah?

Barrett taking Cloud under his wing when he first comes to Midgar and developing a soft spot for him. Cloud helps out where he can, looks after Marlene when it’s needed and what not.

Somehow he meets Zack and the SOLDIER becomes absolutely smitten. He’s always visiting and catching Cloud whenever he’s alone to hang out and whatnot. At some point Zack ends up catching Barrett and the older man can’t help but get all protective over Cloud, especially since the guy in front of him is Shinra.

Cue endless amounts of shovel talks and glaring from Barrett and a distrustful little Marlene that thinks her older brother is gonna get taken away from her.

Born from the image of Zack looking at a camera with smug arousal as Cloud’s muscled and very marked up thighs sit on his shoulders and clamp around his head.

“Spike! Come here!” Cloud blinked at the sudden shout, making his way out of bed with only a bit of haste. Zack didn’t sound as if he was dying but he’d also shouted so there had to be some sort of urgency to it.

When he made it to the living room Zack was sitting on the floor, back to the couch and phone in hand with an adorable little pout on his features. Cloud resisted the urge to smile at his boyfriend, placing a hand on his hip as he raised an eyebrow in silent question.

The moment Zack took a deep breath he knew this was either going to be a very long winded explanation or he wouldn’t like whatever came out of his mouth.

“So Kunsel keeps trying to set me up with people cause he ‘just wants to see me happy’ or something and doesn’t really believe me when I say I have a boyfriend, cause obviously if Kunsel doesn’t know something then nine times out of ten it doesn’t actually exist. Us being the one time he doesn’t.”

Cloud crossed his arms, no longer fighting his smile as he watched the other man ramble, still waiting for the point he was trying to make.

“Anyway! He’s getting kind of insistent and I know he means well and I don’t wanna get all angry with him about this so could I maybe tell him about us?”

The blond frowned a little now, entirely unsure on this. The whole reason they were sneaking around was because of stupid company policy or whatever and Cloud didn’t wanna risk getting Zack in trouble cause he was, technically, his superior.

Zack seemed to catch onto that train of thought, hands shooting out in front of him as if he was physically blocking the thoughts, “I won’t tell him your name or anything! Honest!”

This time Cloud’s frown was tinged with confusion, “Then what’re you gonna do?”

Zack blushed a little, a rare sight that Cloud fully took advantage of to soak in. When his boyfriend averted his eyes he became just slightly concerned for the idea that he maybe had.

“I mean… kinda hard to misinterpret marked up thighs around your head, don’t ya think?” Zack tacked on an embarrassed, awkward little laugh that did nothing to soothe the rush of shock and embarrassment (and maybe just a smidge of arousal) that went through Cloud.

They stared at one another for a long moment, longer than the point of when Cloud thought Zack would backtrack and say it was a joke. Instead the SOLDIER merely gazed back, embarrassed determination in his features.

Cloud narrowed his eyes slightly, ignoring the blazing heat along the bride of his nose as he pointed an accusing finger, “This is about your thing with my legs isn’t it?”

Zack scoffed abruptly, “No! It’s a legitimate way to prove I have a boyfriend without revealing him!”

Cloud raised an eyebrow, “Ok, maybe a little. But! It really is a good idea! I would never do that with a random hookup and Kunsel knows that! Please baby?”

Cloud lasted all of five seconds against Zack’s puppy eyes before he sighed. Entirely put upon and hiding the fact that he actually really, really liked this idea. It didn’t stop Zack from giving a loud whoop though, standing up and running over to scoop Cloud up so he could them back to the bedroom.

Probably a good thing honestly cause Cloud knew how he got once Zack got going and this would not be a short endeavour.

The avalanche trío being so protective over Cloud that when Zack shows up they’re like ‘who tf are you? What do you want with our boy?’ And give him a shovel talk when it becomes obvious what he wants with Cloud.

They don’t care that he knew Cloud before them. Don’t even care that he’s just as protective over him and so obviously loves him. They know Cloud’s been through a lot and despite his prickly and brash nature, he still cares so damn much. Even if he denies it to hell and back.

He looks out for them and he tries to protect them when he can. So of course they’re gonna return the favour in any way they can. Especially when it comes to this SOLDIER boy waltzing in out of the blue and sending their golden boy into a rather messy spiral.

Logically, Zack knew that the Mako enhancements would’ve somewhat changed Cloud’s physical appearance, they definitely worked some wonders on Zack’s physique. Especially so once he’d started regularly working out and started all the SOLDIER missions.

But knowing something in theory and then knowing it in practice were two, very different things after all. Hence why Zack was now staring wide eyed and open mouthed as Cloud and the girls walked down the steps toward the beach he and Barret were on.

The girls looked wonderful of course, Aerith’s chosen beach wear as flowy as her usual dresses and Tifa’s clothes doing wonders on showing off her hard earned muscles. Honestly Cloud’s board shorts and sandles were stupidly simple in comparison.

But Zack had also never seen him in anything less than a t-shirt and jeans. So being suddenly faced with miles of pale, soft looking skin going just a little pink under the sunlight? And the slim yet cut muscles that gave him broad shoulders and a sinfully thin waist?

Zack felt like he was gonna suffer a heat stroke even though he was in the shade. Barret was glaring at everyone around them, whether it was cause of the people picking on the black robes or cause of the amount of eyes leering at their three companions, he wasn’t sure.

But he knew he was glaring at the guys walking up to the three of them, especially the ones talking specifically to Cloud. Zack could feel his hackles raise when one of them got a little too close for comfort, Cloud reeling back a little with an uncomfortable frown.

Tifa and Aerith didn’t seem to notice, talking to some girls that had come toward them and asked about their clothes. Zack took it as his chance to intervene, walking over and shoving between the guy and Cloud just a touch too roughly.

The guy made a disgruntled noise but Zack paid it no mind when he had his blond in his arms, looking up at him with a hint of amusement in his stoic features. The older man merely smiled back at him, squeezing his waist between his hands and silently crying over just how far his hands went around it.

Zack took another moment before turning toward the guy still standing there, shooting him a smug smile as he let his arm rest around his shorter counterparts waist, fingers dipping just under the waist band. The small peek of blue boxers nearly sent Zack running back to Johnny’s crappy little hotel, Cloud slung over his shoulders and subtlety thrown out the window. Not that he was being very subtle in that moment.

Something about Zack tells me he has the maddest fucking oral fixation on the planet and will quite happily go down on Cloud at literally any time either of them please.

He once held Cloud hostage on his face for three orgasms cause he couldn’t help but keep going. The blond had sworn to Gaia he was going to refuse the next time Zack gave him puppy eyes and said it’d only be the one time.

News flash: he failed and Zack managed to wring five out of him that time.

Because I just read a fic (A Study in Hard Things by TheGoldenAppleofAsgard for those curious) and now I want Cloud fucking slaying as a merc in cute little flowy skirts that he may or may not steal from Tifa from time to time and Zack’s reaction to them. Or lack thereof cause he’s too busy having an internal meltdown.

[ff7-has-taken-me-over]

One of those classic Cloud’s one way around Zack and another around everyone else and Zack’s hearing people talk shit about Cloud and is like what the fuck??

Cloud is literally the most adorable, kindest person he knows???? And everyone’s looking at him like he’s crazy cause what do you mean? He’s literally an asshole that thinks he’s better than everyone and is always cold to them??

He’s not he’s just shy af and doesn’t know how to talk to people but hides it behind an aloof, cold front, which gets him into trouble. People think he’s got this outlook that he’s better but it’s literally the exact opposite and he just hides it cause he despises looking weak in front of other people.

I saw your post about Cloud saying things like "Fiddle Sticks" and the like. (And you are right he would.) But i need you to know it'll spread. At work I've trained myself not to swear so I'll say things like "Gosh Dangit" or "Ah Heck" and without even meaning to I've gotten at least 3 coworkers doing it to.

It's only a matter of time until the rest of the party is talking like that too.

No but you’re so right cause the same happened to me 😂

After the initial shock of Cloud (of all people) saying it, Tifa would eventually just kinda slip into it as well and start throwing in her own variations that she’s either heard or made up herself. Aerith definitely uses them as well cause how could she not??

Red and Cait still don’t understand why it’s so funny that Cloud said fiddlesticks and they don’t understand the little giggles the girls give whenever they come up with a new one but they kind of just roll with it.

Barret would be adamant that he won’t start saying those sorts of things. He will sometimes go out of his way to swear just to prove his point and Aerith and Tifa tease him endlessly about it.

But then one day he just kinda slips and says ‘geez Louise’ and the speed at which Tifa and Aerith pin him with the widest, smuggest smiles anyone’s ever seen on them is so very mortifying for him.

He denies it till he’s blue in the face but there is no escaping the two of them and their teasing now and they are adamant to keep up with it. Always admonishing him and telling him to watch his language whenever he actually swears. It’s very amusing for everyone else to see.
