I could get around that. I'll have to suss on Ao3 haha. I really hope they do Cloti justice in the final instalment. Personally I have hope they will. I personally feel like the OG definitely still retained a bittersweet element to it. It just was probably tricky to translate with the animation...

Oh yeah, I more meant I didn't see their relationship as developed enough at that point to see it as romantic. However resolving the issue with healthy communication made them closer in a way that did feel romantic. So it definitely developed the romance - just not until the resolution for me :)

Yeah sorry that was my bad. I didn't see the other replies first :P What the heck is Zakkura? :P I won't judge. I've randomly started reading Cloud/Seph time travel fix it fics so yanno lmao Oh I know you didn't say wet blanket, that was all me haha. They're objectively pretty unexciting in...

Yeah I don't have a ps5 yet cause I have other stuff we need to buy ATM but even as a Cloti I'll be going for the Yuffie date when I get the game :) That was actually my favourite of them all. I thought it was absolutely brilliant. And obviously as a Cloti I personally see the strong...

I have to say I don't agree re the Kalm fight - even though I'm definitely a Cloud/Tifa gal. The apology for Kalm however - that definitely had romantic undertones. Kalm was just a crazy alien manipulated mess man. Ughhh.

Have you played the OG? Regarding your view of Tifa - I find she's hugely reserved for most of the main story because she's silently freaking out over knowing something is super wrong with Cloud. I agree she could be less reserved but I guess I'm sympathetic to her and Cloud as characters...

This is the greatest haha. Iconic.

But where did anyone say that? That's what I mean. Am I missing something? She definitely acts like she's confused about her feelings but I don't think anyone said she doesn't fancy him at all.

This is one of the things I am hoping we get a clear answer about in the final game. Exactly who saved Zack and how. It definitely does seem that it was Aerith but I would like concrete confirmation as to what happened. I actually disagree here. I think the Aerith in the church date is Rebirth...

Yeah this was definitely the focus for me too. From the Temple of the Ancients onwards Cloud is acting really OOC and screwed up. I don't agree with your assessment re the multiverse - I think we have to at least have one or two timelines from what we've seen. But I definitely think the focus is...

Thanks for clarifying! That makes more sense. I can definitely understand the impulse to use the world selfish haha it would be easier if there was a word that summarised this in a mental health sense. Because I can acknowledge that depression is very inwardly focused - but in an extremely self...

I've had similar experiences in my younger years and was very mentally unwell. It bothers me that people say it's selfish. Because when you're in that headspace you are genuinely distancing yourself because you think you're a burden to other people and ruining their lives by being there. So...

I didn't mind it but I do wish they had a bit more at the end in the way of healing. My interpretation is that Cloud has severe PTSD so his behaviour actually tracks for me. Not being able to save yet another person he loves and being terminally ill himself would absolutely trigger a mental...

Yeah and also he looks especially constipated everytime he's trying to express himself in any kind of vulnerable way imho. It's like in remake when he goes in for the hug lol he looks so bloody serious. And when he gives Tifa the flower and stuff too. He is just a super intense dude. And the...

Oh yeah, it's unbelievable! Also they're posting clips from the game saying how romantic they are and like... Cloud is kind of being the worst to Aerith or being completely neutral in them? And they're like 'oh my god he's so romantic, how can Cloti fans deny this?!' and I'm just there like...

I looked at it for the first time this month too and it's pretty crazy over there. Honestly just feel like life as a Clerith fan must be so depressing if you're that obsessed with Cloud mourning over some chick he knew for a month for the whole rest of his life. Like, it's just uncomfortable for...

Apologies if this has already been answered now (I'm just catching up on the thread) but no I don't think that's it. It's that Cloud is telling Tifa that Zack drowned and saying Aerith deserves to know. Tifa is aware that this is not at all what happened to Zack, because she was with them when...

I think it makes sense at this point of the story with the Japanese lyrics. Less so with the English ones. But y'know.. the English lyrics made me think of Zack a lot more so 🤷🏻‍♀️ In the original lyrics for the song she's basically repeating 'let me believe' a lot and 'I want to meet you...

I don't think anyone is denying it's about her feelings towards Cloud? But the English version definitely brings Zack to mind. The Japanese version less so. But the Japanese version of the lyrics I find super depressing tbh. Kind of similar vibe to the Remake resolution

Yeah this, the troupe-y 'lean against the door after saying goodbye' that happens after Cloud apologises for Kalm, the entire Gongaga sequence and them comforting one another in Nibelheim. It's a really nice build up.
