Commission for @capt-ba​ It’s an illustration for their fanfiction where Zack survives 12 or 13 years later, the ending of Crisis Core still breaks my heart so I was really happy to work on a piece where both Zack and Cloud are alive ;-; ❤️

FFVII Remake Easter Eggs - Part 2
SPOILER ALERT! Spoilers about the FFVII compilation.
FFVII Remake includes a lot of Easter eggs referring to the whole FF7 compilation. This is the second post, and it will include the references to…
Tumblr media
Crisis Core is a PSP game released in 2007. It’s a prequel to FFVII and focuses on the adventures of Zack Fair.
1. RUDE BEING…RUDE.
“Haven’t seen him before. He your new boy toy?” Rude is referring to Zack, Aerith’s boyfriend at the time of Crisis Core. Very…rude though (Chapter 8).
Tumblr media
2. THE PUPPY
- Angeal used to refer to Zack as a puppy.
- Stamp the dog is a new misterious element added in the Remake. He’s a beagle, but at the end of the game, when Zack survives, we see it changing in a terrier.
Tumblr media
Are you Zack the puppy? My son wrote to me once about you, zero attention span, restless as a little puppy.
3. BANORA WHITE
- There are some billboards of “Banora White” apple juice in Midgar.
- These fruits only grow in Banora, and the juice was invented by Genesis.
Tumblr media
4. DATING
Aerith asks Cloud to be her bodyguard in exchange for one date. Yes, this was already in the original FFVII but the gesture is taken from Crisis Core (Chapter 8).
Tumblr media
5. SELLING FLOWERS
- Zack suggested Aerith to sell flowers and they started selling them together in Evergreen Park.
- Aerith and Cloud arrive in Evergreen Park and she remembers the time she used to sell flowers there (Chapter 9).
Tumblr media
You know, a long time ago, I used to sell flowers here.
6. YOUR EYES
In Chapter 9 Aerith stares at Cloud’s beautiful eyes the same way she did with Zack. In Japanese Zack and Cloud answer with the same sentence.
Tumblr media
7. PINK DRESS
- Zack asked Aerith to wear something pink when they would have met again.
- The pink dress has always been Aerith’s distinctive mark since 1997, but her optional outfits in the Remake, that were not in the original FFVII, are pink too (Chapter 9).
Tumblr media
From now on, why don’t we make a promise every time we meet? (…) For example, when we meet, you always have to dress in pink.
8. TRAINING ROOM
- The training room was a virtual reality simulator used by SOLDIERs in Crisis Core.
- Cloud, Tifa and Barret find a battle simulator in Shinra HQ in Chapter 16.
Tumblr media
9. PROJECT S AND PROJECT G
- Hojo says he wants to breed Aerith with S and G type SOLDIERS.
- In Nibelheim Mako reactor Genesis told Sephiroth about Project S and Project G. The first gave birth to Sephiroth, the second to Angeal and Genesis. Project G was also used to create Deepground SOLDIERs (Chapter 16).
Tumblr media
CC: “Jenova project G gave birth to Angeal and monsters like myself. Jenova project S used the remains of countless failed experiments to create a perfect monster.” 
FF7R: “We could have the Ancient reproduce. (…) I would start with candidates from SOLDIER. These would of course include S and G types.”
10. CELLULAR DEGRADATION
- Genesis was a failed experiment and his body kept degrading irreversibly.
- In Chapter 7 President Shinra, after noticing that Cloud is a SOLDIER, points out that SOLDIERs usually die pretty soon because of cellular degradation.
Tumblr media
Once a SOLDIER, always a SOLDIER. Though not, alas, for very long. Accelerated cellular degradation being the most common cause of death by far.
11. KUNSEL
- Kunsel was a SOLDIER and friend of Zack.
- When some infantrymen see Cloud and recognize him they say they’ll go and call Kunsel (Chapter 16).
Tumblr media
Cloud? You’re Cloud, right? (…) We went through training together. (…) Hey, sit tight man – I'mma go get Kunsel.
12. BARRET’S LAST STAND
“Worst route ever. Gimme a suicidal last stand. At least– At least–at least that’d have an end!” Barret says this sentence while climbing Shinra backstairs, at 49th floor – SOLDIERs floor. It’s a reference to Zack’s last stand (Chapter 16).
Tumblr media
13. FREEDOM
Before entering in the dimensional portal Aerith says that beyond it there’s “Freedom. Boundless, terrifying freedom”. It reconnects with Zack’s iconic sentence before his last stand “The price of freedom is steep” (Chapter 18).
Tumblr media
14. THE SKY
- In Crisis Core Aerith told Zack that the real sky frightened her.
- At the end of the Remake Aerith says “I miss it. The steel sky”, referring the upper plate that covered the real sky. In Japanese she says “The  sky…I hate it”, because it took away from her Zack and her mother. (Chapter 18).
Tumblr media
15. THE DEFEAT OF DESTINY
- Zack had a dream in Crisis Core that foreshadowed his death. He was looking at the sky wishing to have wings like Angeal.
- In the Remake he defeats his destiny and looks at the sky in the same position (Chapter 18).
Tumblr media
16. ZACK’S LAST STAND
This iconic scene is replicated shot-for-shot in Chapter 18

Some Feral!Zack, lines and base colors. Somehow he looks more feral before color. I think it's his eyes that always softens him up...
He just wants to make it to Midgar... T_T

On the Sea of Crises, Prelude 001.
So this whole thing, (despite only being two pages, *sobbing*) has been a time! It started out as an incorrect quotes piece for this hilariousness via @little-black-dress-zack-fair  (whom I <3 <3 <3 ) which was kindly suggested by @miss-celeste and then as I was working on it it totally morphed into something a bit more…er…involved. So much so that I decided to write it into the OTSOC Pirate!Verse as a sort of silly Prequel.
More on that to come, but for now, please enjoy a bit of dumbass-ery, laced with a teeny bit of angst because, above all else, this is  still a riff on Crisis Core and you gotta bring the (SOUL CRUSHING OMG) sads along with the happy.

Zack wasn't at all surprised to see the Whispers around Midgar... Have they been following him and Cloud around since Nibelheim? Think about it... (if you haven't) WIP

Shirtless, irritated, modern AU Cloud Strife, who may or may not have just fallen in a pool because of a certain someone who's name starts with a Z. 😏
