Summary
Sephiroth is looping, repeating the events of Final Fantasy VII over and over again. He has experienced not only the events of the original game and the remake, but many more cycles beyond, stretching into a multitude of similar and yet ever-so-slightly different worlds. Regardless of loss, death, or even victory, he has been unable to free himself from this time loop – or even uncover why he is looping at all.
Determining to find answers, he seeks out Aerith Gainsborough to see if he can convince her to interrogate the planet itself for information. However, it turns out Aerith is not completely ignorant of the cycle. Fed experiences by the planet of the events of the original Final Fantasy VII, she has good reason to distrust Sephiroth and his plans.
This story revolves around their interactions with each other and the resulting consequences that ripple through this particular cycle.

Sephiroth smiled. It was insanity, having the heart of a jaeger carved open like that, exposing the most fragile working part (the pilot) to the danger of the outside. But it let him let Cloud see him smile. “Cloud,” he said. “You are…”

Summary
It’s TouchStarvation.doc people. 40k+ of it. Non-stop one-shots putting Sephiroth through the hurt-comfort wringer set to max, exploring trauma that made him both fear touch, and the abandonment that made him crave it. But most importantly, the efforts of three friends try to piece him back together again. I wrote this because I am the living embodiment of this post, and because Sephiroth is 1000% a giant cat who needs to cuddle in the sun at all costs.

Summary
Cloud had been in a bad mood all day. No, that had been putting it lightly. His demeanour had been awful, sour, absolutely foul. When they left Midgar, he had been feeling determined, focused, and maybe a little confident because he wasn’t doing this alone. The hours gave into days as they traveled; the wonderment his companions had of fully seeing and enjoying the world at large was almost contagious. Almost.
Today was just not a day for such infectious goodness.

Summary
With a long exhale and after rolling his shoulders through the beginnings of a headache, Angeal took a few more cautious steps forward, finally able to make out Alissa and Sephiroth at the top of a short set of stairs. He couldn’t glean much from Sephiroth’s expression, but his chin was tilted up toward a familiar building, his lips parted slightly in either awe or some other form of stupefaction.
“...shouldn’t go inside without them, no matter if…can handle it…” he replied, his voice oddly flat. “I’d...leaving them susceptible to…”
Angeal blinked. Huh… ‘On your own’...'them’...
It took him a moment to figure out what he found so strange about Sephiroth’s response, and when Alissa chimed in again, it dawned on him: With the context he had, Sephiroth was acting like she wasn’t there.
Shortly after turning in for the night, Angeal hears Alissa and Sephiroth leave their tents.

Summary
“Allow me to tell you…a story,” the thing wearing a child’s skin says. The words sound like they’ve been dragged through concrete, but its smile is a little less malicious and a little more hollow. That’s…maybe good?
Sans shrugs.
“sure. i love stories. this one have a happy ending?”
It grimaces through that pinned-on smile. Its eyes are flat and dead.
“That remains to be seen,” it mutters. It shrugs its shoulders, squirms a little bit. Trying to get comfortable in skin that it doesn’t belong in.
“It’s a story about some kid who freed all the monsters,” it says. “They’re…they’re a…good…they’re…”
My take on a post-pacifist No Mercy run.

Summary
After years of waiting, Sephiroth finds his soulmate during a botched mission to Nibelheim. Cloud is not the supportive, obedient soulmate Sephiroth had been expecting, but he doesn't have time to worry about it as they run from Shinra and look for answers.
Where Sephiroth is a bad at relationships, but is also traumatized after Jenova/Hojo/Shinra/soulmate expectations, Cloud is stressed out fluff trying to do his best fixing the past, and Zack keeps everyone alive.

Summary
On an ordinary day, two against one would hardly feel fair. But today was not an ordinary day, and Gods damn if this man wasn’t proving to be worth every bit of their combined effort.
It was ludicrous. Unheard of. Before today, he would have thought it impossible. But somehow, someway, this man, this stranger who had come from out of nowhere, was fighting off two of the most powerful fighters in the world.
At the same time.

“Mu-shidi,” Yue Qingyuan speaks up, taking his seat at the head of the table. “Have you heard of this curse?”
“I’m afraid not,” Mu Qingfang says, shaking his head. “A curse of compulsion, with dire consequences for disobedience… I’ve heard of many similar things, but not exactly this.”
“For all we know, the perpetrator invented this little trap just for us,” Shen Qinqiu says, tapping his fan dangerously. “Tailormade to ruin us.”
“I have no secrets to hide,” Liu Qingge says, and lifts his chin challengingly at Shen Qingqiu, who bristles in return. “Do you?”
“Ah, Liu-shidi, if you don’t have any secrets then you should get some real quick!” Shang Qinghua says with bright, manic cheer, his smile and his eyes a little too wide. “The consequences for not meeting the curse’s requirements would be very very bad!”

The Peak Lords of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect are stricken with a curse that forces them to reveal a secret, and they all must submit to this curse or suffer the consequences...

Summary
Every split in the timeline means one goes well and one goes badly. Statistically speaking, there has to be a timeline where everything goes wrong and everything is lost. But those timelines need to be pruned, sheared off the stronger branches where life still thrives. Cloud Strife is the only reason his current timeline exists. After giving Sephiroth the Black Materia to destroy the world, he's left to wander the barren landscape alone for all eternity. Unable to die because of his own link to Sephiroth, he's keeping this fading timeline open simply by existing. But Gaia needs this timeline gone, so there's only one option: Remove Cloud from it entirely, and hand him over to another.
But this new world is very different from the one he originally comes from. On Gaia's World of the Tree, the most important bond people have is with the planet, while in Odin's World of the Wolf, that honor belongs to the bonds between people. Lifemates and packs, to be precise, so this is going to be interesting.
-----
A.K.A. Cloud Strife is having none of this shit, and you can't make him.
Chapter 1's beginning spints off my fic On Bound and Broken Wings. That's the only OBABW reference though, the rest is standalone.
