Just have to say this is very touchy ~ Zerith indeed very star crossed lovers~
I also explain why they're similar to Romeo & Juliet in
previous post
Man, I hope many people will write an essay about that so Wiki will include them as modern example in Star-Cross Love page. I tried to edit it since it mentions Clerith, but the admin always revert it.
For some reason, this post made me re-evaluate Aeriths character and now it kinda feels like she's just very....very horny... like at each point she's trying to get a dude but stuff just keeps going wrong. She can't get Zack in this world, she can't get Zack in that world, Zack Cloud is going after Tifa, and despite her trying to sell her flower at each turn, Aerith dies, virgin for life, pent up beyond belief. Honestly kinda makes me feel for her XD
Is this sarcasm?
I think the concept of date in Aerith's mind is different since she call her shopping time with Tifa is a "date" too. In Crisis Core, Zack doesnt consider that him & Aerith going out as she take her to go out of Sector 5 is a date. This is the convo:
"I'll buy you something"
"But you're paying me with one date, no?"
"I thought you aren't interested."
"Ooooh..."
"Okay, it's for memento of our meeting."
Then, since it isnt considered a date, Aerith take an initiative to go date.
"How about we go to the park?"
"Sounds like a date!"
Zack would specific mention if it was a date or not like this scene:
"If I can do it, then we go on one more date."
"If you cant do it, you must grant me tiny wish"
But probably, for Aerith, all that moment spent with him is always a date.
This is also why, the moment she and Cloud escape from Reno till Aerith's house is called a date by Aerith. And if there's any Cleriths claim Aerith go on date with Cloud 10 times in Rebirth, so it is (according to Aerith, not Cloud). I think she's kind of innocent; the devs and her JP VA address this trait.
he fell asleep on the stream
If this is the same person, I've watched him till chapter 3 and waiting him finish chapter 7. But unfortunately, he just got a DMCA notification and his videos are taken down.
