    Summary

    A one-night stand the night before the Nibelheim mission leaves Reno with unresolved feelings towards the Trooper he slept with.

    (An alternate take on canon events where Cloud and Reno met (amongst other things) when Cloud was still a Trooper, and the knock-on effect that meeting had on canon events.)

    Summary

    "Nice place," Reno lies, scanning the room for anything expensive, of which there isn't much at all. Cheap plastic cutlery sits in the drying rack, warped from repeated washes; from the associated salt packets, Reno's pretty sure he'd harvested them from the Taco Bell down the street.

    "I don't have the gil now," Strife says, like he has to. "I'm working on it."

    Reno attempts to deal with a problem client.

    Summary

    “Call me if you ever feel like it,” Reno croaks afterwards, relaxing back on his heels as he works at his sore jaw with a hand. Cloud turns away to zip up, face hot with shame, and shakes his head, not trusting himself to speak.

    Two days later, he asks around for Reno’s number.

    After Cloud saves the world, he can't shake Reno.

    Summary

    The sun is starting to set and the sky is remarkably beautiful outside Kalm’s city limits—all sheer blues and purples sown with stars like white diamonds. No Meteor to be seen. No evidence that they’re all trapped in a living nightmare, struggling to break free. Cloud’s pale as a ghost in the rising dark, all white skin and blonde hair, eyes that glow like some feral cat left in an alley to starve.

    Reno can’t stop staring at him.

    Summary

    “Okay,” says Desmond, not overthinking it, “I’ll accept your spiritual Fedex delivery on behalf of Earth.”

    “His name is Cloud,” she says, like she nearly forgot to mention it. “Cloud Strife.” Desmond gets a fleeting mental image of wild-looking blond hair and a disgruntled expression, which is kind of funny.

    “Hell of a name,” he says.

    “He’s, um…” He means a lot to her, in complicated ways. “He might not… remember stuff… correctly. You’ll keep an eye on him, won’t you?” she asks a little bit desperately.

    “I mean, I don’t really have any guardian angel-type powers in the Grey,” says Desmond. “Otherwise I’d be watching Earth like reality TV all the time, believe me.”

    “Ah,” says Aerith. “About that."

    Summary

    She was raised--

    She was programmed--

    She was raised to always speak the truth. “No.”

    “Do you ever feel inconsistencies in your world? Or repetitions?”

    Her mother would be horrified to have raised a liar, let alone a killer. “No.”

    “Have you ever lied to us?”

    She feels the shame of killing acutely, but not of lying. If she tells the truth they will make her sleep again, and she will wake as she was before, innocent in a way, until the last moments, when her hands are bloodied. 

    And she’s not going back to that.

    Summary

    Andy dreamt. She used to have portentous dreams, once. Now they were usually unremarkable. This one was...not.

    She dreamt that she was surrounded by absolute darkness, buried underneath the earth. She wasn’t afraid, or dying – she didn’t even seem to be breathing. She was just there, as time spun on around her.

    And then noises. Voices, footsteps, spades and shovels. Someone was digging.

     

    Or: Andy used to be a god

    Summary

    In 2012, amateur art restorer Alessandra De Lorenzo found twenty-five letters safely hidden in a choral book placed in the library of Praglia Abbey. All written in the autumn and winter of 1529 - 1530, the letters, which mix four different languages, document a love story like no other: a newly initiated priest was receiving them from a desperate lover, who was pleading him to abandon priesthood and resume their relationship.

    To study these letters, the language employed within them, and their historical importance, three PhDs were employed: Doctor Pia Romola, Doctor Dimitrios Yannaras, and Doctor Fahd Wardi. These are their findings.

    --

    Alternatively: that time Joe pissed Nicky off so much he decided to get back into priesthood just to spite him, and Joe, the desperate, romantic lover he canonically is, wrote him letters to convince him to come back home.

    --

    Alternatively alternatively: as she's settling into immortality, Nile finds an academic essay that details Joe and Nicky's relationship in the early XVI Century and has so, so many questions to ask them.

    [The first chapter is focused on the academic essay; the second one is very much Nile centric]

    Summary

    Breaking through the general chatter, the model called cheerfully, “Good afternoon, I’m Joseph, I’ll be your model for the day. I will be enacting a few different poses over the course of the class, I hope the muses are kind to you and I hope you are kind to me.”

    “Depends on what you’re hiding under that robe,” a student called out.

    Joseph only winked as he undid the belt of his robe. “The human body is never cause for shame,” he said, and let the robe fall to the floor.

    Or: Three times Joe was a muse for someone else, three times he was inspired himself, and one time Joe's art inspired something very non-artistic
