Starter | Muse: Aerith

"... I know what you are."

Bright emerald eyes locked with his, and defensively she held onto her staff. She had wandered too far, wanting to look at some flowers that seemed to be sprouting from a crack in the ground. That was when she felt a certain kind of presence, and one that terrified her to no end. Aerith would keep up with her false-fearlessness, because she needed to appear that way in front of this one. In her mind, if there was any give that she was as weak as what he must think of her, then it would undoubtedly be a victory for him. And she would not have that!

Ugly fears, old fears that he has held closely to his chest. He has spent many an evening wondering. There are truths, even inconvenient ones, that are not enough to move the world. Not even to save itself. Yet when they arrived at Cosmo Canyon, were granted succor by the wise sages and their kindly glittering eyes behind wiry spectacles and learned enough to discern the truth, Aerith did not recoil from it. The dusty research journals he pored over in the Shinra manor basement were right about one thing: his mother had not been human. Aerith did not gaze upon him and see someone, something different. She held his hands in hers and they spent the rest of their evening under the open sky and its endless expanse of starlight and dust.

After all that he had borne witness to: Aerith’s stubbornness, her little indulgences, her unfaltering kindness, her growing knowledge of her people and her place in the world, on this Planet and all the responsibilities she bore out of her heritage, Sephiroth knows he should have better anticipated her next course of action– to strike directly at the heart of HQ and address the rumors they had been hearing about Science’s most precious specimen recovered out of the ashes of Nibelheim.

Shinra has had its fair share of issues with security leaks. People talk.

If there still existed any chance that Jenova could seek the ruin of the Planet once more, then they needed to stop the creature that had caused the near-extinction of the Cetra hundreds of years before.

What did that mean for unnatural atrocities like him and every SOLDIER that also shared her cells? He never did ask her, and he couldn't shake this particular feeling the more the question weighed on his mind. The same feeling he felt back in Nibelheim. Like someone important was waiting for him to wake up. Someone who he never properly met, but has known him his whole life. An eerie, cold, and unwelcome feeling.

Someone.

Something.

His mother. The Calamity.

“You’re sure about this?” he asks one last time as they prepare to disembark. The rusting seams of the rattling can truck they have stowed away on seem to groan in response as it shuttles them down the crowded expressway.

Not too late to turn back, to let humanity find someone, anyone else willing to play hero.

Despite having been the one to ask, Sephiroth also knows what Aerith’s answer will inevitably be. He steadies her with a light hand on her waist as he releases the lock bolt and the loading door rolls up towards the freight ceiling with a clattering thump.

The open door gives them a direct line of sight to the Tower. Ground spotlights criss-cross hazy beams of light that illuminate the heavy concrete and steel walls of Shinra HQ through the many layers of mako smog that hug Midgar’s highest peak. Landing beacons blink faintly at the top. Every floor has its fair share of silhouettes, backlit.

Employees, bustling to and fro across the halls. Security officers, Turks, SOLDIERs, salarymen, interns, techs, researchers. Monsters lurk there, too. Some human-shaped, some not. Elevators ceaselessly moving along their pulleys. Up and down. Top to bottom, bottom to top. Mako lines, glowing, pulsating as they course along the underside of Science’s playground in the upper floors. The engine and the drum.

Would that he could, nothing would be more satisfying than to reduce the entire structure to slag. Sephiroth can only think of one person who truly possessed enough mana to do so.

“Hang on tight. We’re going to jump.”

"you got a crush on me?" richie teased with a slight smirk; as he held aerith's hands; creating the slightest gap between them. "-can't say I ever saw the day, but I think it's about time I made you mine.. what do you say, want to be my girlfriend?"

@cloudvii / xx.

It was purely for the purposes of helping Cloud that Aerith found herself peeking through the changing room door. They had the dress, the wig, accessories, and a visit to the Honey Bee Inn had secured Cloud something that he hadn't showed her. Until now, at least, as her emerald eyes alighted on the thong riding up his well toned ass. She had to quickly duck back as he exited, his dress askew and extensions clipped in haphazardly.

There was no hiding her faint flush or devious smile, but she went for her most encouraging look. "Don't give up, we can fix this!" Aerith curled her arm and flexed her muscles, then ignored his (rightfully) accusatory question and pushed him back inside the changing room before he could protest.

"You didn't lace this right at all. Here, let me redo it." Her hands are already working at the back of his corset, loosening the flimsy knots so she could start anew. "I can see why you won that squat challenge so easily now. I don't know who's coming out better in this deal: you or me." Her tone is teasing as she fixes the laces.

Again, not giving him a chance to say anything, she warned him, "Breathe in!" and pulled hard on the strings of the corset. Whatever training he had in SOLDIER surely hadn't prepared him for this.

aerith trusts exactly 1 person herself. that's it. rest of you can go home.

#that's to say she is incredibly reckless and bullheaded and is so numb to danger she has no danger sense #unpopular opinion ; it's aeriths recklessness that lead to her murder and she never intended to be a martyr or a 'sacrifice'#and i don't like anything that tries to paint her as sacrificing her life b/c she intended to live

unbridledfist asked: "I have friends in high places." to aerith.

"Yeah? How high?"

The Cetra smiled towards her, highly amused by this comment, and simply happy to be near her. It was rare for any of them to have moments alone, and on a night like this with air so crisp and clean, she would bask in everything that it gave to her. Luck must be in her favor, if this one wanted to talk with her, and not any of the others on this night. "Don't you dare leave out any details, Tifa! I'd love to hear it all."

@whiitemateria--

“I suppose you could say we are two sides of the same coin.”

The Cetra girl knows more than she lets on. He’s long held some mixture of fascination, resentment, and wariness at her existence. True steward of the Planet, even if she is the last. There are no others for this age, and Sephiroth sees no better terminus of an this epoch than extinction.

Humans have proved unworthy of the world they inherited. Choking it, stealing its life force to power the convenience of their menial lives. If humanity has not yet gone beyond the pale, then how could they be any better than his ‘mother,’ terravore, calamity, world destroyer, when the actions of men would bring about the same end?

Failure, in many timelines and lifetimes beyond this one; a multiversal voyage to ego death. He is too tired to weave sophistries, silver-tongued paintings of shining futures, and delusions of godhood. Neither god nor man. Inheritor of terrible hunger, instinct, and desire to corrode.

Of all their past encounters, this is his first time seeing where Aerith lives.

A modest, two-story building nestled away in a walled off paradise. Verdant, colorful, and somehow untouched by the sordid mako smog and copper bite of oxidized metals. How befitting.

“You know more than you let on. Why don’t you tell him?” His tone is curious, conversational. He keeps a comfortable distance from her by testing a nearby fence with a push using the heel of his palm. The wooden boards and its post proves sufficiently unyielding, and Sephiroth leans the back of his thighs against it with his arms folded over his chest. “He must be dying to know.”

#whiitemateria #c: aerith #i figure this somewhere in the remake timeline

A wandering healer living in the Sector 5 slums, Avalon is a young boy whose raincoat resembles the garb of a legendary hero. Able to commune with the spirits of the departed, he offers them a means by which they may pass on peacefully into the lifestream.

a fun little design challenge for myself — what would Avalon look like in FF7's specific brand of urban fantasy aesthetic

#RLPaperDrawing #Avalon Perolon #FFXIV #FFVII #Final Fantasy 14 #Final Fantasy 7 #lalafell #white mage #rip the alternate version of this post that had really cool fading coloured text but i can't indent that #anyway he's wearing a raincoat b/c a lot of Aerith's healing LBs are water themed!!#also he's still a lalafell b/c like. mako energy. experiments. who knows. its fine.

"Oh, that wouldn't matter." Aerith shook her head with a smile, her braid swaying behind her as she did so. "And I wouldn't be able to anyway."

She didn't elaborate on why that was but she had a feeling he understood some of it after saving her from Reno, even if not the whole picture. Unlike Cloud, the Turks were unwanted bodyguards who had been watching her since she was young. Shinra had a vested interest in keeping her close.

"What about you? A jack of all trades, you must fit in a lot of places." Aerith clasped her hands behind her back and leaned toward Cloud curiously, not quite invading his space but showing she was interested.

At first, something about his demeanor and appearance reminded her of Zack, but the more she was around him the less it seemed so. So, just who was her bodyguard?
