    Summary

    “Who are you seeing? Is it—is it him!?”

    A lingering side of Cloud knows that his healing with Aerith, and his tears with Zack, had been undeniably real.

    The man Tifa speaks of has plagued his nightmares for the last year, nowhere to be seen in the light of day or in the faces of his family. Sephiroth is no longer a part of Cloud. Sephiroth can no longer tear apart his visage and reach into the caverns of his existence, crushing everything in sight like a bloody, wilted carnation. Sephiroth is no more when it comes to battling with death before he gets a chance to live. Sephiroth is gone. But Zack and Aerith… Cloud can’t say the same for.

    He hopes he never has to.

    Summary

    To them, Sephiroth was the background character. A lowly public service worker. A tall man in green coveralls. A nobody. But Sephiroth had a story, and each of them had a story too - he was sure. What was the blond's story, he wondered?

    The meditation of waste management is thrown into tumult when Sephiroth spots a new face on his morning route. Please note possible canon spoilers and content warnings.

    Summary

    “Is this a fucking joke?” Strife asks, almost shouting but trying to prevent a scene.

    The salesman responds but Genesis is too busy looking down at the newspaper clutched in his hands to pay attention to the conversation anymore. An impossible headline sits in front of him.

    SILVER GENERAL DOES IT AGAIN: NONSU FALLS TO SHINRA AFTER MONTH-LONG CAMPAIGN

    Below it, a black and white picture of Sephiroth, standing proud and tall in front of a battalion of troops and not at all an insane egomaniac with a mother complex. His hands shaking, Genesis looks back at the top of the paper to find the date. “July 21, 1999,” it reads.

    [On indefinite hiatus]

    Summary

    Haunting is not exclusive to ghosts. Death is more complex than simply being gone. When Cloud and Tifa end up spending one night in the Shinra Mansion on the outskirts of Nibelheim, they realize it’s hard to protect one another from a house soaked in past horrors, a house that breathes and aches and bleeds like the living. How do you protect each other from something that’s already dead? From the things that attack your soul rather than your skin? Surviving fear is one thing. Overcoming fear is quite another.

    And all Cloud wanted was to get to second base.
