    Summary

    Zack Fair is gunned down in the wastes of Midgar, returning to the Lifestream, and while he floats there, unknowing, unseeing, unbeing… he hears Cloud. Just as he pulls through the green haze to try and talk with him, help him, comfort him what with all he’s been going through, he opens his eyes to see Cloud looking down at him, worried, in a cadet uniform.

    “Sir? Are you alright?”

    Behind him, a single black feather drifts down.

    (Zack is, inexplicably, back in the past, but he struggles with reconciling the Sephiroth of the past he should know, and the Sephiroth of the future that he does know, in a bout of what seems to be ever-worsening paranoia, except… is it really all just paranoia…?)

    Summary

    Nobody talked about the time Strife fell into the President’s meeting room from the vents. Mid meeting. Shinra, Scarlet, Heidegger, Palmer, and Reeve had all stared with dumbstruck expressions as the cadet stood up, his hair slightly more askew than usual, and said in a dead serious tone:

    “I was looking for spiders.”

    “You were looking for… spiders,” Reeve had repeated, sizing up the self-proclaimed fourteen-year-old (he looked like he was twelve) with a look of comical bafflement.

    Strife nodded, his back straight and a picture of proper decorum. “Sephiroth asked me to. Sir.”

    ---
    The fic in which monster spiders save the world. Sort of.

    Summary

    Sephiroth was Hojo's son. But he was also Lucrecia's. And that was why, given a chance, Vincent would try to save him. That was why, given a chance, he would go back and try to help keep him on a better path.

    Because when you loved someone, and they were gone, you made sure their kids were okay. And he should have realized that the first time around.

    Summary

    Anything that’s not human is a monster but not every thing that’s a monster is monstrous, so what exactly is a monster? And why must something with wings be a monster when it might just as well be an angel?
