Summary
“Zack,” came the positively icy reply. “Tell me you didn't just decide to walk me over to my commanding officers ass first.”
“What?” There was a smile in Zack's voice now, his shoulders moving to betray his laughter. “You said you wanted them to see your best side!”
Or how fourth time SOLDIER applicant Cloud Strife met the First Class trio and in breaking Zack's nose, set in motion all of their lives changing forever. Eventual AGSZC.

Summary
Zack’s head whips around, that blush finally returning… and suddenly he realizes what sort of place this is.
“Cloud…?” he whispers, averting his gaze from the crude scenery.
“You are free to leave,” Sephiroth says, not bothering to look at Zack while he says it. There’s a smirk on his powerful lips. It feels like a taunt because it is, and Zack quickly shakes his head.
“No thanks. I’m staying as long as Cloud is!”
“Then pick a table.” Sephiroth challenges.
Naturally, Zack flusters horribly.

Summary
All Cloud wanted was to wait out his enlistment and move on with his life—to put ShinRa behind him. If he got to piss off some of their personnel in the meantime, great.
He hadn’t been prepared for Genesis Rhapsodos to walk into his life and get him conscripted into SOLDIER.

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
After 'defeating' Sephiroth, and heading out of Midgar with his friends for their next adventure, Cloud closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath, feeling an eerie and odd sense of something, or someone, passing by him. It made the hair on his neck stand up as goosebumps ghosted across his entire body.
And when he opened his eyes moments later...
...Cloud woke up.
He woke up back when he was a Cadet, retaining all the memories of what had happened (or what was to come?). This time, he'd make it right. He'd save those he cared about. He'd stop Sephiroth before everything went wrong. Maybe this time, he'd be Zack's hero.
(After the events of the remake, Cloud wakes up in the past, retaining all of his memories of what happened, or what was to come? Now he sets upon the adventure of defeating Sephiroth before he even has the chance to go crazy, but his slight change in personality has everyone questioning his actions. All he wanted to do was save everyone, and have the merc life together with Zack. That couldn't be too hard, right? )

Summary
Cloud Strife is a troubled boy. Beset by a mind of frustrated isolation, beleaguered by complicated experiences of deep affection and grief. At the center of it all, the heart of a girl he has loved since before he knew what love is. A girl for whom he will face new and confusing feelings, for whose safety and happiness he will risk life and limb. For her love, for the music of her soul, to be her hero.

Summary
Cloud could hardly breathe. He heard the words coming out of Sephiroth’s mouth, but they didn’t feel real. Half an hour ago, Cloud was screwing around with materia in the gym, and now he was being offered a permanent lifelong contract as Sephiroth’s right hand.
“The choice is easy, sir,” he said, looking resolute. “I want to be yours.”

Summary
The only thing you thought you had in common with Cloud Strife was the fact that you lived at Stargazer Heights. Despite moving in months ago, you'd only shared a handful of conversations with the Sector 7 mercenary, and for good reason - the two of you just didn't get along. While you found him cold and arrogant, he found you downright annoying, so an unspoken agreement was made to just stay out of each other's way. This arrangement had been working great until Cloud locked himself out of his apartment on the evening of a storm in the dead of winter. With nowhere else to go, and because you're not a sociopath, you decide to invite him to your place. Neither of you could have predicted how that would go...

Summary
“What? No, it’s totally normal!” Zack insists. He gestures at the rest of his, not to brag, very comfortable bed, and whips the puppy eyes out without a second thought. “C’monnn, Spike! I’m deprived!”
“Oh, deprived? Big word, dumbass,” Cloud deadpans, crooking a brow at him. He is utterly unmoved by the welcoming arrangement of pillows and blankets collected around Zack, or the snack stash basket in Zack’s lap. “Not falling for it.”
“Cloud.” Zack sits up with a very serious look. “Would I ever lie to you?”
“Absolutely,” Cloud answers without a second thought
--
Or
Zack does his best to convince Cloud that platonic cuddling is totally a thing bros do, and they're the best of bros, so obviously they have to do it!
Well. Now he's cuddling his crush regularly, and slowly going insane.
(Zack and Cloud will get to that romantic relationsip eventually, but the road there is kinda stupid) -

Summary
"Cloud isn’t entirely sure how he got himself into this situation. Just his shitty luck. One moment, he was scoping out the surrounding town for an upcoming mission the he and the other SOLDIER First Class’s had been assigned, and the next, he was slipping and falling."
OR
Cloud falls and dislocates his shoulder. Zack and Sephiroth help him (and they eventually kiss).
