    Summary

    When Sephiroth and his Remnants awaken in the past, before the First Class SOLDIERs started to degrade and during the Wutai War, Sephiroth decides to go about things a little differently. Using his knowledge of the future, he believes he can bring about the end of the world. His first step? Finding Cloud and securing him to his side. To do that, Kadaj, Loz and Yazoo are sent to befriend him and promise to help him get into SOLDIER. How hard can that possibility be!

    Cloud Strife can't believe the newest Firsts actually want to be friends with him! It's almost too good to be true! Maybe a little too good. Cloud can't help, but wonder: why are they so interested in him? When everyone else in Shinra seems to only see a country bumpkin with no place here. What do they know about Cloud that even Cloud doesn't know?

    Summary

    Cloud Strife never expected to receive personal training from ShinRa’s legendary hero, Sephiroth. As a new SOLDIER recruit, Cloud struggles to find his place among the ranks, but Sephiroth’s guidance pushes him to grow stronger—both in combat and confidence.

    However, what starts as admiration for his instructor soon deepens into something more. From the intensity of their training sessions to the surprising warmth of their late-night text exchanges, Cloud finds himself falling for the enigmatic General.

    But Sephiroth is a man of discipline, power, and mystery. Does he even notice the subtle hints of Cloud’s feelings? Or is he simply playing along, unaware of the storm brewing in his young trainee’s heart?

    As Cloud improves in his training, their bond grows stronger—but so does the tension. Can Cloud resist the pull of his growing infatuation, or will he risk it all to discover if there’s more to Sephiroth’s demeanor than meets the eye?

    Summary

    The new intern Renna only needed six months – six months to build experience and escape the slums. Instead, she built something else: value to a man who protects what belongs to him. The internship had an end date. His claim doesn't.

    Summary

    Cloud has always known that some people were important, and some people weren't. He'd made peace living in that latter category.
    He didn't want to be important. Heroes had epic glorious deaths. They died young and beautiful before they could be actual people with flaws that might tarnish their legacy.
    Cloud wasn't a hero.
    He was a reactor worker in a small town he could never leave.
    Leave greatness for people who cared.

    Summary

    When Torianne Sutton stumbles upon a strange manual in the restricted archives, she doesn’t expect it to lead to a sudden promotion, or a brush with death on her first day. Assigned as executive assistant to the Director of SOLDIER, Lazard Deusericus, she finds herself navigating political intrigue and a certain silver-haired general with a sword the length of her career trajectory.

    As she attempts to rein in the inner workings of SOLDIER, Tori learns very quickly that sabotage is subtle, ambition is dangerous, and the most powerful weapon in the building might just be an assistant with a clipboard.

    Summary

    Sephiroth and Aeris move through one another’s memories like ghosts.. unwanted, persistent, impossible to ignore. though enemies by fate, their pasts mirror each other in ways neither fully understands. both were shaped by SHINRA’S cold experiments, both marked by childhoods carved with confinement and loss, both forced to bloom in places where nothing kind should have survived. As he watches her from the darkness, irritated, haunted, he begins to see fragments of himself reflected in the gentleness he cannot comprehend. and she, carries the echo of his existence in her prayers. their memories overlap like two wounded mirrors: different, but reflecting the same storm. bound not by affection but by inevitability, they become reminders of what the other cannot escape… and what the world never meant them to be.

    Summary

    'I was so aware of the cold, the mist of my breath as it began to leave me in shorter, more anxious bursts, aware of the rustles as the wind caught the trees behind us, the birds, the snow, the intense existence of him, and also of the tiny green orb clutched so desperately in my hand.'

    In which a failed assignment leads to a great deal of unanswered questions and into the path of the most unexpected person to help answer them.

    Summary

    When Cloud finds Sephiroth alive but unconscious in a dark and grimy alleyway in Wall Market, appearing to be free of Jenova’s influence, he has to ask himself if the creature that crawled out of the crater and ashes of her impact could still be called a man, or if all that’s left is just a monster.

    Or: Sephiroth teams up with Avalanche to take down Shinra. Cloud becomes his keeper, for better or for worse.

    Summary

    Cloud is a worrier.

    He never knew that about himself before, but now that he’s actually happy, now that there are no world endings looming over him, his life is a blank slate. He doesn’t know what the future holds, and that terrifies him.

    When they notice this, Cloud’s boyfriends take him on a trip to the Gold Saucer to remind him that it’s okay to let himself be happy for once.

    Summary

    Just as Genesis came to terms with the people he lost being really gone forever and begun to move on, even started to let himself have a thing for the reclusive blond hero of this alien future, he's ripped away and thrown back into the life he half-wished a thousand times he could go back to in moments of despair and nostalgia. But now it’s oh so different because although he's gone back to the time he can never really go back to the time. He's a different person now but the people he never really stopped loving, who died or were lost and are now standing before him again exactly the same as before you lost them, don’t know that. They could never understand even if he told them. He can’t even apologize for all the ways he hurt them because it wasn’t them. All he can do now is gather all that splintered guilt and try to shape into something resembling a warped shield (he's never been an expert at that craft—a project this complex requires far more skilled hands than his scorched ones, but he's all there is) and make sure it doesn’t happen again. All he can offer any of them is this nameless haunted thing he calls love. Will he desperately try to go back to who he was or will he hope they can learn to love this new him?

    Summary

    Twilight and Dawn verse. Zack's parents and Elmyra have been found. Elmyra, of course, is not pleased to see Sephiroth. The expansion of the family in Sephiroth's home will be more than a little awkward, despite Aerith trying to help matters along. And the whole reason why the family members were found is more than a little strange. Why were they being detained? And why were Sephiroth and the others suddenly allowed to know about it?
