Summary
This takes stuff both from the manga and the live action
****
It was peculiar to witness how quickly ending up in a different world would change everyone’s priorities.
Especially when, in said world, you were forced to play mortal games to stay alive.
Niragi found that both ironic and beautiful at the same time.
He remembered how, back in the real world, everyone’s obsession was to find their soulmates and live happily ever after, or some bullshit like that.
He wasn’t one of them.
Or better, he used to be, when he was young and naive, but he stopped caring when he turned his life around.
Or at least, that was what he kept telling himself.****
-Alright, I can do that. But if I see that you are taking this too seriously, we end it immediately.-
Niragi smiled, grinning against his ear.
-Fine. Now why don’t we stop talking and go for round two?-Series

Summary
“How could it be wrong to hate them, when you look at what Shinra has done to the world?” Sephiroth swept his arms out, gesturing to the rolling fields and woodlands, the bruised purple sky, the quaking linden leaves, at everything, and then at her. “At what they've done to us?”
Aeris lifted her chin. “Don't you want to be more than what was done to you?”
After five years in intermittent Shinra custody, Aeris seizes new hope when she discovers she is not the sole Cetra left in the world. The other? Sephiroth, infamous defector and violent revolutionary, who plans to exact a toll of blood from Shinra for all that they've done.

Summary
They stayed at the inn that night. They were still a bit short on funds, but the idea of a working shower was too hard to resist, so they piled themselves into a single room with two large beds and started fighting over bathroom rights. Vincent stood by the window and watched as Tifa detangled Aerith's hair, nagged Yuffie about brushing her teeth, rubbed hand cream into Barret's single chapped hand, and called down to the front desk to complain about the dirty sheets.
It had long become obvious to him that Tifa was the mothering one in the group. The others tried to return the favour, but chasing Sephiroth was a time-consuming task, and she sometimes escaped their notice. Something told him that Tifa preferred it that way, and that it was likely by design.
He, however, noticed. He always noticed. She was always in the corner of his eye, and sometimes she was all that he could see.
Two souls, full of survivor's guilt and misery, forge an unlikely bond whilst journeying to save the world.

Summary
The business of family is built on sacrifice.
-
There were three true horrors released by The Jenova Project.
An infection, lingering in a dissolving body, hidden in a holding tank, exhumed from a wounded earth.
A man so monstrous it became real, fated to consume itself from the inside out, endless.
And a child of burden to it all.
-
OG canon compliant interpretation of The Jenova Project, where Sephiroth is the product of human failures enabled by the ShinRa. The monsters are human, the end point is madness, and the house is, maybe, haunted - by all the things called home to die.

Summary
“We don’t have time for this!” Barret exploded. “They’ll be resetting the passcodes soon… and then…”
No one wanted to finish the sentence - they all knew what would happen then. Months of hard work, planning, down the drain. They’d have to start all over again.
“We did it before, we can do it again,” Jessie said resolutely. “I’m getting really good with the fake IDs, I can whip them up in a couple hours now! And the passcodes - no problem!”
“Yeah, it’ll be fine!” Wedge said. “We’re still alive! That’s the important thing.”
They all knew it would be harder, though. The places they’d lifted the keycards from would have better security, the soldiers who’d run their mouths and gotten caught would have been demoted and replaced. They’d been lucky so far, there was no guarantee they’d succeed a second time.
It was starting to look like their plan, after so many months, would stall at the finish line.

The story of how Cloud joins AVALANCHE. Also my essay about how the original game is hella Marxist (see author's note).

Summary
A year on, I stand in front of the mirror sometimes and try to see the outer signs of any of this. It's like a big bruise, this heartache that won’t go away, this pain from where someone's scratched AERIS over and over and over somewhere deep inside.
Yuffie was more affected, of course she was, than most people got to see—and it didn't help that she'd never got the chance to be clear about her feelings about Aeris. Even to herself.
