AGSZC Adopt an Emotional Support Cat for Sephiroth
From the @strayheartless archives <3
Thanks @heraldofcrow and @altocat for the grammar help!
---------------------------------
It doesn’t go as planned.
Tumblr media
They go to the shelter to try to find a kitten, but Sephiroth finds something even better: a feral momma cat with a single living kitten because all her other babies died. He and she stare at each other for a solid 15 minutes through the bars, until AGZC find them.
Genesis: THERE you are. Sephiroth, the adoptable kittens are this way.
Sephiroth: This one.
Zack: Oh, sorry bud, this one says the kitten is too young to leave his mother.
Sephiroth: No, this cat. The kitten can come too. *has not broken eye contact yet*
Angeal: Sweetheart, this says she’s feral and not up for adoption, and neither is her kitten. Come on, let’s go look at the ones that are available, ok?
Sephiroth: This one.
Cloud: *Looks at Seph. Looks at the cat. Looks at the kitten. Looks at Seph.* This one.
Angeal, Genesis, and Zack can all be stubborn, but they are faced with the immovable object that is Sephiroth with a fixation and the unstoppable force that is Cloud protecting someone. They convince the shelter staff they can take care of both the mother and the baby. Yes, even though she’s feral. Yes, they know they can’t be separated. Yes, they will handle medicating the feral cat.
Tumblr media
Momma cat immediately adopts Sephiroth as a second kitten. Then Cloud as her third. The first kitten grows up and is weaned and becomes Zack’s dog-cat. He’s friendly and cuddly and likes to play fetch, and his momma likes him, but knows he’s going to be ok on his own. Not her other kittens though. They clearly still need her.
She comes and yowls at Genesis and Angeal when Seph and Cloud need something she can't get them. She yowls at Genesis to go hunting with her to provide for the babies, and at Angeal to figure out what's wrong when they won't eat the nice mice she brings them.
She accepts Zack as a puppy, disciplines him, and comforts him when needed, but her attention belongs to her tall baby and her baby birb first.
Her new sons are idiots, but they’re HER idiots.
Tumblr media
Sephiroth calls her “Mother Cat”. Cloud calls her “Cat”. Genesis insists she needs a REAL name (it’s only decent), and writes down "Serafina" on the vet papers. Sephiroth falls in love with him all over again.
Tumblr media
If either Sephiroth or Cloud starts hyperventilating, she comes and sits on her boy and purrs until he calms down. If they ignore important things like feeding time or petting-the-cat time, she starts kneading her paws. If they still ignore her, she brings out the claws. She’s not shy about making sure they take care of her and then themselves.
She nips Zack when one of her boys is overstimulated and he's too loud.
She hisses nonstop at the vacuum and stands between it and her babies until they take her to another apartment, at which point she bathes them until they (and she) calm down.
Tumblr media
Serafina: YOWL.
Angeal: Hi Serafina. Is one of them being an idiot?
Serafina: YOWL. *walks to the dining table*
Sephiroth: *hunched over a pile of manuscripts, hair a mess, muttering*
Serafina: YOWL.
Angeal: Seph, honey, have you been up all night again?
Sephiroth: …it’s…morning? Wh- *voice cracks* -at day?
Angeal: Wednesday.
Sephiroth: Oh *cough* just one night then.
Angeal: And you haven’t had water since…? Actually, don’t answer that. Clean up your papers, you need to eat, hydrate, and sleep. No, no arguing. Serafina is worried, you need to reassure her.
Sephiroth: Oh! Of course.
Tumblr media
—--
Serafina: YOWL.
Genesis: Yes, my Lady Serafina?
Serafina: YOWL. *leads him to the front door, where Cloud is swaying and trying to put on his boots*
Genesis: Cloud Strife, when was the last time you ate?
Cloud: h-Huh? Gen? When did you get here? 
Genesis: Eat. When.
Cloud: ummmmm…breakfast?
Genesis: Yesterday?
Cloud: ……maybe?
Genesis: Sit down before you fall down. You know mako enhancements require more calories. No, stay there and I’ll get you a shake and a bar. Yes, I know you have work. You won’t be any use passed out or dead. Now thank your second mother for saving your life. *stomps off huffily*

Cloud has broken each of his boyfriends' noses. How did it happen with each one? (AGSZC) <3
Hmm 🤔
Seph: it’s incredibly hard to get the drop on Sephiroth. Like, almost impossible. So when Cloud brakes it everyone in the training room stops. Sephiroth is teaching him, goading him really into pushing himself past his mental blocks, and he hits a nerve. He means to but he doesn’t quite expect Cloud to drop the sword and punch him. It’s unorthodox he’ll admit but He’s proud of him.
Angeal: It was and accident he swears to the goddess. He was sitting in the dark and Angeal turned the light on and Cloud startled so bad be lashed out. It was an accident.
Genesis: impulse control… hmmm yeah Cloud has it, but Genesis was bragging about being a master at defensive fight styles, so Cloud said “okay then smart ass, block this” and Genesis ✨didn’t✨. Not Clouds fault Genesis can’t block a punch from and infantry man.
Zack: It WaS aN aCcIdEnT!!!! And he still feels bad about it so don’t bring it up! He was talking to some of his squad mates and Zack suprised him by coming home early from assignment… but he snuck up on Cloud and grabbed him from behind and Cloud reacted on instinct!! Seriously don’t mention it he’ll cry 😭.

genesis is honestly the entire tortured poets department
Genesis, forcing Sephiroth to listen to ttpd: Isn't this album so me?
Sephiroth: Absolutely. They even named a song after you.
Genesis: Which one?
Sephiroth: The smallest man who ever lived.

Watching demon slayer for the first time, and thus far my favorite thing is whatever the hell Nezuko is doing in the background at any given moment.

Sephiroth:*walks by Cloud and scoops him up then LITERALLY throws him*
Zack:*waiting at the end of the hall, catches Cloud, and starts running off with him and tosses him up to Angeal*
Angeal:*hanging from a bannister and grabs Cloud then tossed him to Genesis*
Genesis:*catches Cloud and takes him to Lazards office*
Lazard: For Goddess sake, you could have told him to come here!
Cloud: When I said I wanted you guys to pass me around, this wasn't what I meant.

AGS at the Tailor Shop
Tailor: Sir, stop clenching your butt while I'm measuring it, that won't make it smaller and will only cause problems when you put the pants on.
Angeal: *embarrassed noises*
Tailor: Now move your tree tr- THIGHS, move your thighs apart so I can measure them.
Angeal: I'm a monster. 🫣
Tailor's assistant: *drooling* hell yeah
Tumblr media
Tailor: sir, do you know what BDSM is?
Sephiroth: yes, Bagel Delivery Shared Monthly, Fair says I'm excellent at it.
Tailor: Ok, what about a leather fetish?
Sephiroth: Hmm, I've only seen wooden or stone fetishes in temples; I suppose leather fetishes decompose more quickly and may be lost to history, but that is an interesting historical thought. Perhaps Rhapsodos would be interested, you should ask him.
Tailor: Bondage?
Sephiroth: I've rarely found that necessary, my targets are usually dead and capture is not requested by Shinra. If it is, they're too intimidated to try anything. I think it is my size and prowess with a sword that makes them submit.
Tailor: ...
Tumblr media
*after 17 hours*
Tailor: WELL MAYBE YOU SHOULD DESIGN AND CRAFT IT YOURSELF!!!
Genesis: MAYBE I SHOULD!!!

Every time I read a KH fic by @inconsistentracoon I go mildly insane for a few days as the Muse possesses me. This is a scene from their beautiful epic Kintsugi (https://archiveofourown.org/works/40410993/chapters/101232360), in which Kairi and Riku wait for Sora to wake up…….

He does them when he gets bored. So he’s got them in:
- classic literature (BA hons, MA and PhD. also has a specific PhD with published thesis paper on Loveless as a pseudo-historical religious text and its relevance to modern life, AND several research papers written on Homosexuality and the literary figure.)
- anti capitalist literature (MA)
- medical law (BA Hons)
- nursing ( BA hons)
- agricultural development (BA hons, MA and PhD (this was his first complete PhD at aged 14))
- botany (MA as a supliment to his Agroculture degree)
You know…. Important stuff
Genesis has multiple PhDs (yes I know this isn't how it works in real life, shhhh)
@rottenpumpkin13 and @birdblacksocialclub (giant Genesis nerds) and @strayheartless (who was talking about this with me) or @ anyone who has opinions, please add your thoughts/fields of study.
He found out there was a program in the Shinra compensation package for people to pursue higher education, and that it didn't have a limit on PhDs. So far, he's studied and received accolades in:
Literature
Botany
Political Science
