Yeah, it is always meant to diminish I feel. Her relationship with Zack lasted two years, whereas with Cloud was only two weeks. Moreover, a teenager losing a loved one is not something that is casually gotten over. It's not like she lost a pair of fucking shoes. That's kind of the problem though, they seem to always try to diminish Cloti and Zerith...But the argument seems to be "Oh, she's a teenager. She'll get over it," meaning that it wasn't that serious, meaning that her so-called fans don't want or allow her to care. Instead of thinking "oh, she loved/loves him wholeheartedly but she should move on as much for her sake as Zack's even if it is a struggle sometimes". I feel that it's all about diminishing ZA instead of actual discussion about Aerith, Zack and the text.
Even if Aerith survived and began a relationship with Cloud, she probably would always love Zack. He's never given her a reason not to. Do people think that that widows and widowers that remarry just forget the feelings they used to have toward a loved one?
It's even funnier when you remember some of them are shipping Zack and Elmyra.Like, it feels so weird. It feels as if the fans don't want these characters to actually care about each other and at the same time they want them all to have romantic/sexual feelings for each other? And I'm just? Confused, lol?
