Honestly, this is why I like how they are in CoT and AC. Obligatory I have my complaints, but it just feels more mature and real to me. It adds a lot of depth to the aftermath and their relationship in a realistic way.
The voucher is for the guy he buys (aka trades) the bike for.
I’m going to assume it’s because in Rebirth his side quest is a Tifa side quest and it’s about him finding Merle, his lover. She gave him a reunion flower necklace in Remake.
He's very linked to Tifa always part of her quests or scenes. He is looking for his lost lover and does the hand over heart pose that Tifa does. So he's kind off a mirror of Tifa looking for Cloud and will probably be the one giving her hope when Cloud is missing. Post meteor he finds his wife and has a kid with her
Tifa’s got a soft spot for separated lovers and people aiming to get someone else’s attention romantically.
I've said it several times now, but Square has a habit of putting out something, CA has tried to claim it as 'theirs' and putting information in a sequel of some sort to crush that notion. KH, Dissidia, even the Remake project now.
I think Leslie will play a part in the main story of part 3 he had his scene in remake so it makes sense with Tifa searching for Cloud. The do keep trying to claim the reunion flower aswell somehow. Despite the fact its so obvious they put It outside Tifa's house
I liked how they implied that all the resolutions happened in Remake; Cloud said "I can feel her calling me", most likely referring to Aerith's Not Our Aerith resolution, Barret got an "apparently, you were loitering in a rather lovely flower garden", and Tifa got to explain the reunion flower in the sewers. It would be nice if they did the same with the Rebirth GS dates but I guess that would be more difficult, lol.
He actually didn't say that in JP - I don't remember right now because the FR was botched too. Either way, Cloud feels Jenova's calling, not Aerith's during this whole part up until they see Sephiroth with Jenova in the Shinra Tower.
Ah, that's too bad. I thought it was a cute reference to Aerithr's resolution.
I don't really see it but think alot of people draw parallels between Leslie and Evan with Cloud?
Yeah when I think of these kind of connections/theories I think they’re cute but not something I personally read into too much.
Well there's a reason why I say that TKAA's ending is the perfect ACC ending. I think Nojima must have felt it was missing too and when he was tasked with this book he must have added because it would give a true closure to Cloud and Tifa's story. In TKAA we're definitely closer to Remake trilogy!Cloud, that's for sure.
From what I can tell, Leslie's situation feels more Zerith-y than Cloti.
I mean, how? Leslie doesn't know Aerith nor Zack, but he does know Cloud and Tifa. It's them who help him out, and... it's them who have the strongest reunion theme.
Separation and reunion can apply to both CT and ZA, just in different ways.
On the one hand, it's sort of hilarious that the side that doesn't grasp that switching over to Zack while Aerith is considering her feelings for Cloud is telling us about those feelings, but also that their official position is "Ignore the text, there's -special subtext-" is now the quiet part out loud.
Isn't Midnight Mistake when you get wrapped up in the moment and jump the relationship? The trope isn't something you necessarily regret, it's more like doing something you didn't mean to. Like the trope of waking up in bed next to your crush and not remembering how you got there.
I’m just keeping some of the more antagonistic ones I’ve seen because I can already smell that when part 3 drops, half these types will switch and claim “they always knew it was going to end with Cloud and Tifa lul”
Is this from the Clerith subreddit or the actual FFVII one? Because it's even more obvious in the remake that the story is developing Cloti.
