Forgive me, I missed the reference and anti-ed your joke with my own. Servo's line clicked as soon as you said this
It happens, no worries.
Time flies and stands still at the same time.
I wanna get to the "step to the right." Specifically "right" as a synonym for "correct"
It definitely drives you insane.
Picolloku/Gokollo! Vegetunks/Trungeta! Bulchi/Chi-ma! Grab the fusion bands from DB Fusions and anything is possible.
I insist we call 18/ Bulma 8 Bul.
Cloud for 10th class! But yeah, I don't see them getting along super well, which is like as not to be entertaining.
That's why I suggested it, after all.
Survival situations call for a knife's edge balance of confidence and caution. Some folks fall off the edge, all the more likely when it's not life or death anymore.
A false positive is safer than a false negative, hence the tendency towards false positives.
To be clear I was specifically referencing Time Adventure from Adventure Time's series finale.
Ah, yes. Had not twigged to that initially.
That's how you make Best Friends with hide and seek buddies.
Hear their unending screams of joy.
Sonic CD was best for this. Wait too long? Sonic quits.
Which softlocked the game IIRC.
Now tell the rest of the internet.
HEY, REST OF THE INTERNET, LISTEN UP!
Does it involve some throat tension? Like you're making a loose fist with the musculature around your larynx?
In my case it feels more like I'm loosening it up so it can bounce off of itself more.
Happy birthday Barret! No wonder he kept the sailor suit, it's a self-birthday present.
Always gotta treat yourself on your special day.
Agreed. If Aerith hadn't died, Cloud would still be with Tifa, which would be enough to stop a lot of Cleriths from CAltists all by itself. Also shipping Cloud with Aerith doesn't require so much "what the christ?!" if Aerith isn't dead.
Yeah, this might be DQ5 levels of chill if Aerith lived to the end.
Of course that's true of debate in general, isn't it? Even the old "who would win if X fought Y?" debates.
To some extent yeah, it holds for all types.
Have we made the obvious ABC joke concerning Anastar, BlankBeat and Cali? I don't remember it but with hindsight it jumps out at me.
Plus they've Already Been Chewed up and spat out around here, so
I feel like in the last decade or more we must have at some point, but I can't remember when.
It is known. I'm surprised never to have heard "Cloud despises Aerith, which proves he loves Aerith!" It'd barely be an exaggeration honestly.
Well, we do have "Cloud says he thinks of Aerith as Nakama which proves he thinks of her as more than that because he's obviously lying" thanks to Rebirth now.
That's where I'd put him, yeah. There or maybe Junon. The other mercs are harder to place.
Heavy is from around Nibelheim. Sniper... Corel, Medic... Mideel ba dum tish, Demoman is still somehow from Scotland along with Cait Sith, Soldier is from the scrubland between Midgar and Kalm, Assassin is from [REDACTED] and may former Turk. Pyro is from Icicle Inn area. Gotota keep folks warm!
Well said. I'm still acclimating to shifts in the forum's culture, so for now you're more in the know on the when.
Yer doin' fine.
Around the internets, I have no idea. Here on TLS it was the primary notice for shit posting mean shit about Aerith.
Yeah I've done this too, and wasn't always as good at noting my own bullshit. Either way they rarely seemed to get the point.
Yeah I recall whole pages of that honestly.
I recall pointing out that while this is obviously not true, it easily could have been and still fit the narrative.
Hey, wanna buy a "flower?" First one's only 1 gil.
If only there was anything they could say that'd make a difference.
"I give up, you were right, Cloti is endgame" might make a difference for them in the long run.
Cloud, as he often does, needs a hug.
Seconded.
I tend to agree, stopping to handle things wasn't a viable option. There were no viable options, they just took the nonviable option that took longer to go to shit.
Best of a bad situation and all, yeah.
Making characters self aware us always fun. Think we can talk Sephiroth into coming to Badanon meetings? Might be good for him.
Sephiroth would be terrible at therapy.
They were. That was all Cloud keeping Zack in the vault.
Thought so.
Ahhhh kitties. Until I had kids, never had I loved something so inconvenient so much.
They can be a handle, when you have 2 it's a little less so than with 1, but then the trend reverses.
You'd think more of Nibelheim would be like that if it was environmental. Though now I wonder if Claudia had this in her too.
Just tanking dragon attacks on the town with nothing but a frying pan a pot lid and the pure intent not to let a single hair on Cloud or Tifa's head get the tiniest bit singed.
This is both hilarious and accurate.
That's be a fun sitcom for Chris to do. Donald Blake, MD. A pure comedy where he plays a Thor who's forgotten he's Thor and is trying to run a medical practice.
Also arriving in Edge to save her and Denzel.
Do you think Cloud practiced that boomerang sword throw? Or did he learn it from watching Yuffie, as he seems to have learned the sword from watching Zack and Sephiroth?
I think he thought of it right that second, went YOLO and pulled it right out of his ass because his wife and son were in danger dammit.
Why do you think she let people die for weeks/months when she could have just invoked a downpour and avoided a lot of misfortune? She could even have saved Cloud from sinking into depression by curing Denzel and Cloud himself.
Real question. Not a petty attack to get the last word. I sincerely wonder.
Plothole?

Because when she does this, Kadaj and his brothers are still around. And Sephiroth has not been summoned yet. So she doesn't need to purify them first to heal Geostigma
I suspect she had to gather power. Cloud was her first cure, but she was finally ready with a countermeasure.
Ascribe not to malice what can otherwise be explained via incompetence or misfortune.

I’m genuinely curious of how long interpretations like this have been used in the debate? I ask because I’ve yet to see something that isn’t something like this.
Like I completely understand interpretation…but am I wrong to see this as reaching?
It makes me wonder what even is the debate? That Cloud only loved Aerith? He met her and forgot about Tifa? He settled for Tifa after she dies?
This is amazingly reaching and special pleading to try and reframe the scene in its opposite way.
In her HA GS date, she's asking him "until the ride ends" ... I mean... It's not really something you ask to someone if you feel you're sharing the same feelings. It's borderline asking for pity.
I'm sorry I always agree and try to not dismiss CA moments in the game. But it's not a romantic moment at all...
For Aerith it's about romance and trying to move forward from Zack. For Cloud it's about consoling her about the loss of Zack. That's the disconnect. They're not on the same page.
I have always read that look as "you are so getting laid tonight" since my first viewing, for what it's worth.
Yeah, those are bedroom eyes. That exchange of looks is in the script and is what causes Cloud to smile.
What is romantic about the CA GS date because for Rebirth's Ultimania Cloud's profile page states the dates can be romantic (Cloud and Aerith screenshot or funny, Cloud with Yuffie), the devs also said some dates/ bonds were more romantic, some more family.
As I said just above, I think it's that Aerith is trying to talk Romance while Cloud is trying to comfort a grieving friend.
Is there anything in the compilation from Cloud's pov because it seems like he kind of goes where the wind blows.
And I might be in the minority but they should have carried over the cattiness (from og) between the two girls over Cloud to remake if there not going to address the elephant in the room.
I mean there's the lifestream sequence! But yeah 2000 gil to be a hero for one.
And in my opinion Aerith friendzoned Cloud.
Aerith: At least now, I know where you and I stand I mean. Thing is Cloud, I really like you.
Aerith: But then "like" can mean a lotta different things, can't it?
Aerith: 'Cause there's liking and then there's.... "liking"
i really don't see how this is anykind of declaration of love. If anything it's the opposite.
But of course this is only my interpretation.
She did, but it's hilarious because he has zero clue or care about being friendzoned.
"Cloud, I like you, but as a friend."
"Cool, me too."
