My annual invocation to play The Pathless to anyone that will listen

#someone in my tags mentioned shadow of the colossus yesterday and bingo #many games have tried to ape its aesthetic but none have zeroed in on the game design DNA in sotc better than the pathless #the ethos of minimal GUI in a functional open world with an intricate traversal system and bonkers boss fights #wrapped in a mythic parable that doesn't overstay or overexplain itself one iota. and it looks incredible. and sounds astonishing #and! you get an eagle pal with cute petting mechanics! she snuggles you if you hit the sweet spot even. 10/10 #the pathless #my shots

i see your "Angel not knowing Husk is into guys & pining from afar" & raise you "Angel having a feeling/knowing that Husk is into guys & pulling all the stops in Gay Melodrama cause he thinks he isn't Husk's type"

#huskerdust #angel hearing Husk disclose one [1] iota of information on a past lover & being like 'oh come the fuck ON'#Angel thru gritted teeth staring at himself in the mirror gripping the sink: It Is FINE If We Stay Just Friends #I Need More Friends Anyway #Angel being like ''i will just bury this feeling deep within me until either IT dies or I do''#meanwhile Husk is like. ''Ah yes surely Angel can pick up on the flirting I've been doing lately now that he's opened up''#is Husk successfully flirting & Angel just doesn't get it or is Husk's idea of flirting so incredibly subtle it is impossible for anyone #to pick up on? You decide!

i think i found my people

#sorry having a small town queer finally makes friends living in the city moment over here #i just. give people my chosen name and they use it. if i put in one iota of effort even strangers gender me correctly #my course director recognized me from the stage i took in the summer and saw that my name didn't match the legal documents #APOLOGIZED FOR DEADNAMING ME. and said there's a procedure to get my uni credentials fixed even if i haven't legally changed anything yet #I don't think I've ever been so comfortable in my life #fuck I'm gonna cry

I don't normally advocate for murder but I will make an exception for our board president

#sir if you could find it in your heart for one iota of professional decorum and just asking nicely like a normal human being #rather than communicating like an alien whose only knowledge of human beings comes from watching office space

Cassian coming to on a cold metal platform, only waking because of the sharp pain in the middle of his spine. Cassian gritting his teeth so as not to scream. Cassian remembering that he saw Krennic go after Jyn. Jyn. He has to get to Jyn. They made it this far, they could make it to the end. Cassian propping himself up on one elbow, breathing hard through the pain. His forehead is already drenched in sweat as he continues to pull his broken body forward inch by inch. He has to get there first. She has to make it out alive. He has to climb.

#he thinks of k2 and he pushes through #he thinks of nemik and he pushes through #he thinks of everyone in his life that gave him an iota of a chance - Jyn included - and he. pushes. through.#I’ve been thinking about this scene for a while and I just love him so much #cassian andor #rogue one

i’m about a month late to the ffvii rebirth fanfare but i saw your study/shot comparison for the ending while scrolling through some tags and was really curious to see if you had come up with any more conclusions since then! i just finished it a couple days ago and still reeling from it and have been enjoying hearing people’s thoughts about what the heck they think is going on. obvs cloud is not ok, but i’m still trying to decide just how much of what we’re seeing is due to his sanity going out the window and how much of it (if any) is aerith actually speaking to him and/or sephiroth messing with him. the way he tells the rest of the party to not look up at the sky though and none of them see what he sees, just clues them all in to the fact that he isn’t entirely all there anymore. a collective very concerned side-eye lol. somebody help him pls.

!!! oh friend, you're in a TON of luck: I actually started a few different commentaries on how I saw the ending on this weeks back, but didn't post them because I got distracted by other fandoms? I'm more than happy to share them though—not as developed as they could be, but some congealing of where my mind went upon finishing the game and rewatching the gameplay.

forewarning: FFVII ending spoilers + a long af post lmao

So I wrote this on my twitter (where I go to see things only on twt lol) the other day because of a bunch of concepts were clarified by the Ultimania + translators, which kinda sums up where my thoughts are:

Which...yeah. As I see it: as of the ending, Aerith is in fact dead in our current world (the one of the player narrative). How I see it, she's died in our primary timeline—though likely "alive" in the same way Zack is in some other timeline, in addition to her connection to every "universe" through the power of her connection to the planet as the last Cetra.

The white whispers (which represent Aerith/the will of the planet) as well as the “confluence of world” colors we see with Sephiroth are all around when Cloud supposedly “sees her alive" during the classic death scene—

—an indicator that the event itself was the "confluence" Sephiroth was trying to achieve, with Cloud experiencing several versions of it due to his own connection to Sephiroth/the lifestream/his fragmented mind. We see this both in what Sephiroth says around the event itself....and also the contrasting experiences of our party with what Cloud sees in the moment (+ through end of the game).

As I see it, Cloud’s consciousness by the end of FFVII:R-II is fully fractured; throughout both Remake & Rebirth he is already seeing visions affected by Sephiroth’s influence on the planet (the black whispers, the way hooded men and thin air turn into Sephiroth before his eyes)—and now, during the “confluence of emotions / worlds / reunion” mentioned (Aerith's death), Cloud’s already broken mind is slipping further into seeing “the middle space” of the worlds joined and prepared for destruction by Sephiroth in real time, rather than following the timeline of events in the world we play—a la the post that inspired your ask. :)

All that said: the reason he’s seeing Aerith (not just sensing her the way Red does in his own Lifestream connection) is because she’s a Cetra, and now (in death) the embodiment of the positive!Will of Gaia across worlds—so because of Cloud's connection to that "middle space" / ability to traverse different versions of reality because of his connection to Sephiroth, Cloud is interacting with her presence…despite it not being there for anyone else.

It’s also why he can see the sky split no one else can.

ADDITIONALLY:

The Aerith we see fight alongside Cloud in the final battle and the one we see walking around everyone as Cid fixes the plane…that’s the spirit of her person (think the Aerith of Advent Children). Aerith didn’t live this game—her spirit can communicate because of Sephiroth's successful confluence, though she’s ALSO "alive" in the same way Zack and Biggs are to us: aka she died in the world she was in but still exists in others, which Sephiroth confirms/explains both when Aerith pulls Cloud into another “doomed” world—

when he’s trying to manipulate Cloud in the Lifestream—

and when you’re fighting Sephiroth alongside Aerith in the void during the final battle (after she’s died).

Even so, Aerith “living on” as the last Cetra/the spirit of the planet + someone with access to multiple worlds through the "reunion" means she’s now as able to infiltrate Cloud's ongoing visions as Sephiroth is...and is likely trying to keep him even somewhat present despite his clearly fractured mind.

I think that’s implied repeatedly by through the hollow Holy Materia (implying both Aerith is no longer “there,” but still present + that cloud himself is now hollow)—

—and why/how the Black Materia (Sephiroth) is still manipulating him and very much driving his fractured thoughts, visions and actions.

As for the rest of the party: it's because no one but his “vessel-connected-to-Sephiroth” self (+ now dead-but-living-on-in-the-Lifestream Aerith) has any idea what he learned about worlds in the Lifestream that what’s happening to Cloud is lost on everyone (and why they look painfully concerned), and also why spirit!Aerith repeatedly gives him reminders to 1) not listen to Sephiroth and 2) focus on finding himself again.

All that said: because Cloud’s actual self is already slipping away from our present game TL by the second half of the game, it will have to be retrieved and rearranged—which we know will happen in game 3 (assuming you know the original FF7 plot where Tifa rearranges him in the Lifesteam) but that has to be changed from “Cloud finds out about Zack and finally cracks" because Cloud already knows about Zack in some capacity by the middle of Rebirth.

I personally think this sets us up for a really interesting resolution in that Tifa is going to probably have spirit!Aerith’s help putting Cloud back together in the Lifestream in game 3—and that she will likely play a bigger part in helping Cloud “find himself” in his own world again because it’s been made more apparent that she’s a full consciousness in the Lifestream/able to affect multiple worlds now because of Sephiroth completing the first step in his plan. That's more just hopeful on my part going into the next game than something rooted in analysis though.

But yes! those are my thoughts! I hope this gives you (more than a little) something. Feel free to ask if something isn’t clear though lol this was like 4 different half-done drafts combined 😂 Regardless, ty so much for the ask / giving me a reason to post them!

#I hope this made even one (1) iota of sense. I can clarify in a full post later if you'd like because this was a lot of bits and bobs LOL #still. its been made clear by Nomura and Co she is no longer with us at least in THIS world #and context clues as to when cloud sees her + the streak in the sky + the visions of sephiroth etc...his connection to Sephiroth #through Mako/SOLDIER/something similar to the Sephiclones is why he's out here going THROUGH IT #as Sephiroth converges the world. at least in MY reading #cloud strife #aerith gainsborough #sephiroth #ffvii analysis #ffvii spoilers #ffvii:r spoilers #ffvii #final fantasy #the me tag #asks

Also sorry to keep banging on about it but 'the barbie move was soooo trans positive' WHERE. how

#yes its good that theres a trans actress in it #but my god the lack of gender noncomformity in that movie was astounding #i didnt expect it to be some bastion of the butch experience but like.#all its feminism talk and not one iota of a mention of women who Dont want to be feminine and how theyre derided #the way that weird barbie gets a 'glow up' so she isnt weird as soon as we're meant to like her #THE MOVIE ENDS W BARBIE BEING RECOGNISED AS A 'REAL WOMAN' BCOS SHE GREW A VAGINA ‼‼
